Practical management of equine metabolic syndrome
Livestock, 2014Equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) is a clinical syndrome, the components of which are increased adiposity, hyperinsulinaemia and insulin dysregulation resulting in a predisposition to developing laminitis. It has been described as EMS because it has many similarities to metabolic syndrome in man, which designates a set of risk factors which predispose ...

Advanced nutritional and stem cells approaches to prevent equine metabolic syndrome
Research in Veterinary Science, 2018Horses metabolic disorders have become an important problem of modern veterinary medicine. Pathological obesity, insulin resistance and predisposition toward laminitis are associated with Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS). Based on pathogenesis of EMS, dietary and cell therapy management may significantly reduce development of this disorder.

Equine metabolic syndrome: part 1
UK-Vet EquineBoth obesity and equine metabolic syndrome are being increasingly recognised. The underlying endocrine abnormality, insulin dysregulation, represents a high risk for endocrinopathic (hyperinsulinaemia-associated) laminitis. Early recognition and prompt treatment of the condition is crucial for the prevention of laminitis, a potentially severe disease ...

Equine syndrome X, the metabolic disease, and equine grain-associated disorders
Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 2003In 1988, a Stanford endocrinologist suggested that a high-carbohydrate diet aggravated or exacerbated a predisposition to insulin resistance, which he identified as a primary factor in the etiology of obesity, non–insulin– mediated or type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension and, surprisingly, coronary heart disease.1 This is surprising because the high ...

Equine metabolic syndrome: part 2
UK-Vet EquineObesity, insulin dysregulation and predisposition to endocrinopathic laminitis represent the major cornerstones of equine metabolic syndrome. This article summarises new information pertaining to the predispositions and pathophysiology of equine metabolic syndrome and presents some newly emergent and effective treatments for this important and common ...

Impact of dietary components on phenotypic measurements for Equine Metabolic Syndrome
Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 2013Previous studies in healthy horses have demonstrated that dietary adaptation has an impact on many of the phenotypic variables measured and used as diagnostic criteria for horses with presumptive equine metabolic syndrome (EMS). However, the relationship between dietary intake and measured responses in EMS horses is less understood. Our objectives were

The equine metabolic syndrome peripheral Cushing's syndrome.
The Veterinary clinics of North America. Equine practice, 2005Certain management practices tend to promote the development of obesity (metabolic syndrome) in mature horses as they enter their teenage years. These management practices include the provision of starch-rich (high glycemic index) and fat-supplemented rations to healthy horses that are relatively inactive.
