Steroid anabolic and catabolic hormones in highly and recreationally trained female athletes across the menstrual cycle. [PDF]
Abstract Sex hormone fluctuations across the normal menstrual cycle (NMC) may affect women's performance and health, but literature is sparse on the estradiol (E2) impact on anabolic and catabolic hormones and well‐being in female athletes. We therefore measured in 21 NMC anaerobically trained female athletes: 12 highly (HT) and nine recreationally (RT)

Effect of a ceruminolytic ear cleaner on clinical, microbiological and ear canal microbiome evolution in canine erythemato-ceruminous otitis externa associated with proliferation of Malassezia yeasts. [PDF]
Background – Erythemato‐ceruminous otitis externa (ECOE) is commonly associated with Malassezia spp. and microbial imbalance. Hypothesis/Objective – To assess the clinical performance of an ear cleaner in dogs suffering from ECOE associated with Malassezia spp. overgrowth and to measure its impact on the microbiota. Conclusions and Clinical Relevance –

Impact of Menstrual Cycle and Oral Contraceptives on Haematological and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Highly Trained Female Athletes. [PDF]
In highly trained female athletes, haematological and inflammatory biomarkers were found to be independent of menstrual cycle phase, but oral contraceptive use increased transferrin, reticulocyte count and triglycerides and decreased interleukin‐6.

Effect of concentrate feeding sequence on equine hindgut fermentation parameters
Feeding a diet with a small amount of hay and a high proportion of concentrate given in large meals entails a risk of colic to horses as this can impact the hindgut microbial ecosystem.

Deviation From Optimal Physical Activity Duration Worsens Depressive Symptoms Through High Sleep Reactivity and Poor Sleep Quality in Adult Volunteers From the Community. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Physical inactivity is considered to increase depressive symptoms. There are also studies reporting that overly strenuous physical activity can negatively affect a person's mental state. Insomnia, which is associated with lower levels of physical activity and increased sleep reactivity, is also known to be associated with depression.

La diversité de l’écosystème microbien du tractus digestif équin
Le gros intestin (caecum et côlon) des équins héberge un microbiote abondant et divers dont une fonction essentielle est la dégradation et la fermentation des parois végétales ingérées en produits directement utilisables par l’hôte.
