Closure of the neuro‐central synchondrosis and other physes in foal cervical spines

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 217-231, January 2025.
Abstract Background The neuro‐central synchondrosis (NCS) is a physis responsible for the growth of the dorsal third of the vertebral body and neural arches. When the NCS of pigs is tethered to model scoliosis, stenosis also ensues. It is necessary to describe the NCS for future evaluation of its potential role in equine spinal cord compression and ...

Ultrasonographic assessment of equine metacarpal cartilage thickness is more accurate than computed tomographic arthrography

Veterinary Radiology &Ultrasound, Volume 66, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Articular cartilage can be directly imaged using ultrasonography. The fetlock is a common site of osteochondrosis, with the sagittal ridge of the third metacarpal bone most commonly affected. In osteochondrosis, cartilage thickening may be an initial finding.

Evaluating portable wire-flooring models for inducing bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis in broilers

Poultry Science, 2014
Rearing broilers on flat or sloping wire flooring is an effective method for consistently triggering lameness attributable to bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO). Portable obstacles known as speed bumps (SB) also consistently trigger modest incidences of BCO when they are installed between feed and water lines in litter flooring ...

Susceptibility of 4 commercial broiler crosses to lameness attributable to bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis

Poultry Science, 2013
Growing broilers on wire flooring provides an excellent experimental model for exposing susceptibility to lameness attributable to bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO). Two independent experiments (E1, E2) were designed to compare the susceptibilities of broilers from 4 commercial crosses (W, X, Y, and Z).

Electron-Beam-Killed Staphylococcus Vaccine Reduced Lameness in Broiler Chickens

Vaccines
Broiler chicken lameness caused by bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO) is presently amongst the most important economic and animal welfare issues faced by the poultry industry, and the estimated economic loss is around USD 150 million. BCO

Locomotor Health in Modern Broiler Chickens: Risk Factors, Major Disorders, Assessment Methods, and Implications for Welfare and Production Efficiency

Animals
Genetic selection for rapid growth, improved feed efficiency, and increased breast-muscle yield has substantially enhanced broiler production; however, it has also increased the functional demands placed on the locomotor system.

Linear regression analysis of the optical density experiment.

, 2015
(A) Light absorptions (A.U.) for viable (x, R2 = 0.129) and necrotic (o, R2 = 0.989) epiphyseal cartilage were fitted linearly to different time points, indicating that the PG content remained stable in the viable epiphyseal cartilage, but decreased ...
