Equine Asthma: Current Understanding and Future Directions [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
The 2019 Havemeyer Workshop brought together researchers and clinicians to discuss the latest information on Equine Asthma and provide future research directions. Current clinical and molecular asthma phenotypes and endotypes in humans were discussed and

Serum Vitamin D Level Is Unchanged in Equine Asthma [PDF]

Animals
Vitamin D deficiency is associated with asthma development and severity of symptoms in humans, but whether the same occurs in horses is unknown. We aimed to determine whether the serum vitamin D levels differ in horses with asthma compared to control ...

Environmental Management of Equine Asthma [PDF]

Animals, 2023
Environmental practices related to the inhalation of airborne dust have been identified as the main cause of equine asthma (EA) and reasonably, they are truly relevant in its treatment and control, especially for horses with its severe form.

Equine Asthma Does Not Affect Circulating Myostatin Concentrations in Horses [PDF]

Animals
(1) Background: The number of horses suffering from chronic respiratory diseases, resembling human asthma, is increasing but there is still a lack of reliable and accurate methods to detect these disorders.

Giant Multinucleated Cells Are Associated with Mastocytic Inflammatory Signature Equine Asthma [PDF]

Animals, 2022
Equine asthma is currently diagnosed by the presence of increased neutrophil (>5%), mast cell (>2%), and/or eosinophil (>1%) differential cell count. Macrophages are normal resident cells within the alveoli.

Airway Hyperresponsiveness, but Not Bronchoalveolar Inflammatory Cytokines Profiles, Is Modified at the Subclinical Onset of Severe Equine Asthma [PDF]

Animals, 2023
Airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and inflammation are both observed in human and equine asthma. The aim of this study was to assess the timeline and relationship of both features at the subclinical onset of severe equine asthma (SEA).

Severe equine asthma — an overview

Livestock, 2017
Severe equine asthma (EA) is the newly adopted term which defines the syndromes most recently known as recurrent airway obstruction (RAO; syn chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Heaves) or summer pasture associated recurrent airway obstruction (SPARAO; syn summer pasture associated obstructive pulmonary disease).

Equine asthma: Integrative biologic relevance of a recently proposed nomenclature [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2018
Abstract The term “equine asthma” has been proposed as a unifying descriptor of inflammatory airway disease (IAD), recurrent airway obstruction (RAO), and summer pasture-associated obstructive airway disease. Whilst the term will increase comprehensibility for both the lay and scientific communities, its biologic relevance must be ...

Heart rate variability in horses with and without severe equine asthma [PDF]

Equine Veterinary Journal
Abstract Background Equine asthma in severe form (severe equine asthma [sEA]) shares remarkable similarities with human asthma. Human studies detected changes in the autonomic nervous system function in asthmatic patients based on heart rate variability (HRV) analysis.

The Dynamics of Circulating Immune Complexes in Horses with Severe Equine Asthma [PDF]

Animals, 2021
Non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers of equine asthma syndrome (EAS) from blood or urine are sought. The aim of this study was to assess the absorbance of circulating immune complexes (CICs) during the exacerbation, remission, and treatment of an asthma episode and assess the potential usefulness of CIC levels in the diagnosis and monitoring of the ...
