Noseband type and tightness level affect pressure on the horse's face at trot
Abstract Background Poor noseband adjustment could create high pressures that may risk pain or tissue damage. Objectives To quantify sub‐noseband pressures dorsally over the nasal bone and ventrally over the mandibular rami for a Cavesson, Swedish (crank), Drop and Flash noseband at five tightness levels (2.0 to 0.0 finger equivalents). Study design In

Abstract Background Noseband adjustment should avoid discomfort and allow some jaw movement. Objectives To determine pressure beneath a cavesson noseband at five tightness levels during standing and chewing. It was hypothesised that increased noseband tightness is associated with increases in nasal and mandibular pressures while standing and chewing ...

Equine temporomandibular joint diseases: A systematic review
Abstract Background The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a unique joint that enables mandibular movement. Temporomandibular diseases (TMDs) impair joint function, leading to more or less specific clinical signs. Objectives To compile and disseminate clinical data and research findings from existing publications on equine TMD.

Identification of an exosite at the neutrophil elastase/alpha‐1‐antitrypsin interface
Molecular dynamics simulations predicted an exosite in the encounter complex between alpha‐1 antitrypsin (AAT) and neutrophil elastase (NE), comprising a patch of acidic residues which interacts with a basic loop on NE. Recombinant AAT variants with mutations of the three acidic residues show reduced association rate compared to wild‐type and confirm ...
