Learning as Compost: Reorienting Evaluation in an Era of Authoritarian Drift

New Directions for Evaluation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We synthesize insights from seven cases to interrogate a central assumption of the learning function of evaluation: Learning can be strengthened through better design, integration, or alignment with accountability systems. Taking the issue's conceptual framework seriously, the essay reflects what the cases reveal about the nature of learning ...

Mono‐dimensional, two‐dimensional and Doppler echocardiographic measurements in healthy Standardbred neonatal foals in the first 5 days of life

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bodyweight, age and breed influence the echocardiographic assessment of foals. There are no echocardiographic studies in Standardbred neonatal foals. Objectives To describe echocardiographic values for selected variables, evaluate intra‐ and inter‐observer variability and assess cardiac changes in the first 5 days of life in healthy

Transcriptomic signatures reveal systemic adaptations and immune modulation in response to training and competitive racing in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

Trendelenburg positioning with or without norepinephrine infusion for haemodynamic support in anaesthetised hypovolemic horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Intraoperative haemorrhage during equine anaesthesia is a rare but potentially fatal complication requiring prompt haemodynamic support. Postural manoeuvres such as Trendelenburg (TL) positioning and vasopressor support augment venous return and improve cardiac output (CO), yet their efficacy in anaesthetised hypovolemic horses ...

Validation of a stall‐side immunoglobulin assay for use in equine reproductive management

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Equine foals receive IgG from mare colostrum through passive transfer. Failure of passive transfer (FPT) is a significant risk to the foal's life, leaving them vulnerable to infection and sepsis. Radial Immunodiffusion (RID) and immunoturbidimetric assays quantify IgG present in a foal sample but require a laboratory to complete ...

Dexmedetomidine infusions improve cardiovascular and renal function in anaesthetised, experimentally endotoxaemic horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dexmedetomidine infusions are beneficial in anaesthetised endotoxaemic horses when administered concurrent to endotoxin, but post‐conditioning effects are unknown. Objectives To evaluate whether a dexmedetomidine infusion is beneficial in horses administered Escherichia coli O55:B5 lipopolysaccharides (LPS) endotoxin prior to ...

Prevalence of insulin dysregulation in a sport horse population as determined by traditional and stall‐side testing

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The prevalence of insulin dysregulation (ID) has not been investigated in sport horses. Stall‐side insulin assays offer convenience but need further validation. Objectives To determine the prevalence of and risk factors for ID in a sport horse population using an oral sugar test (OST) and assess agreement between stall‐side and ...
