Abstract Background The diagnosis of mild–moderate equine asthma (MEA) can be confirmed by airway endoscopy, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALf) cytology, and lung function evaluation by indirect pleural pressure measurement. Oscillometry is a promising pulmonary function test method, but its ability to detect subclinical airway obstruction has been ...

Steamed hay and alfalfa pellets for the management of severe equine asthma
Abstract Background Steaming hay significantly reduces respirable particles and provides a palatable alternative to dry hay for horses with asthma, but there are few prospective studies demonstrating the clinical efficacy of steamed hay. Objectives To compare the efficacy of alfalfa pellets and steamed hay in improving lung function and inflammation of

Protective immune response against Rhodococcus equi: An innate immunity‐focused review
Abstract Rhodococcus equi causes pyogranulomatous pneumonia in foals and immunocompromised people. Despite decades of research efforts, no vaccine is available against this common cause of disease and death in foals. The purpose of this narrative review is to summarise the current understanding of interactions between R. equi and the host innate immune

Heart rate variability in horses with and without severe equine asthma
Abstract Background Equine asthma in severe form (severe equine asthma [sEA]) shares remarkable similarities with human asthma. Human studies detected changes in the autonomic nervous system function in asthmatic patients based on heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. Study design Observational study. Objectives To investigate the relationship between
