On the type locality of the Naso Stardrum Stellifer naso (Jordan 1889), and comments on morphological change over a century. [PDF]
Abstract Stellifer naso is known from the State of Bahia (Brazil), but there is a lack of an accurate definition of its type locality. Thayer's expedition (around 1865–1866), led by Louis Agassiz and staff from the Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ, Harvard University), intended to explore Brazilian fauna and flora, with most of its material housed in

Variation in Four Horse Gait Categories Illustrated by Quantitative Analysis With ANALOC-E. [PDF]
Horse gaits are a trait highly selected and prized in diverse breeds. Meanwhile, gait classification relies mostly on subjective visual observations by evaluators. Noninvasive equipment able to track locomotion in horses and output quantitative gait parameters is not only helpful in evaluating locomotion but also in designating gait types and its ...

The Weight of Genetic Drift: A Pedigree-Based Evaluation of the Breton Horse Population in Brazil. [PDF]
The genetic diversity of Breton horses in Brazil is a critical concern, mainly due to the small population size and low number of births per year. Given that the inbreeding was overlooked by breeders for multiple generations, we estimated the genetic diversity of this population utilizing pedigree‐based measures of population diversity. A total of 1394

Validation of the Equine Urticaria Activity Score for the assessment of chronic recurrent urticaria in horses. [PDF]
Background – Recurrent urticaria is common in horses. The pathophysiology is poorly understood and treatment options are limited. Often only glucocorticoids are effective for controlling clinical signs, albeit with potential adverse effects. Studies investigating new treatments need a validated objective scoring system for the grading of skin lesions ...

Computed tomographic myelography of the cranial cervical spine in Warmblood horses with no spinal pathology-Inter- and intravertebral ratios and distribution of contrast columns in neutral and flexed cervical spine. [PDF]
Abstract Background Computed tomographic myelography (CTM) and radiographic myelography (RxM) are diagnostic for extradural spinal cord compression, but knowledge about the contrast distribution in flexion and normal position of nonaffected horses is lacking.

Abstract Background The inter‐relationship between equine thoracolumbar motion and muscle activation during normal locomotion and lameness is poorly understood. Objective To compare thoracolumbar and pelvic kinematics and longissimus dorsi (longissimus) activity of trotting horses between baseline and induced forelimb (iFL) and hindlimb (iHL) lameness.

Abstract Background Both type 1 (PSSM1) and type 2 polysaccharide storage myopathy (PSSM2) are characterised by aggregates of abnormal polysaccharide in skeletal muscle. Whereas the genetic basis for PSSM1 is known (R309H GYS1), the cause of PSSM2 in Quarter Horses (PSSM2‐QH) is unknown and glycogen concentrations not defined.

Background – Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is the prodrug of mycophenolic acid (MPA) which acts as an immunosuppressive agent. During the biotransformation of MMF to MPA, additional metabolites including MPA phenol glucuronide (MPAG), MPA acyl glucuronide (AcMPAG) and MPA phenol glucoside (MPG) are formed.
