Impact of ununited plantar eminence of the first phalanx on early racing performance in North American Standardbreds

open access: yesVeterinary Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To determine the prevalence of ununited plantar eminence (UPE) of the first phalanx (P1) in North American Standardbreds and evaluate its association with early racing performance. Study design Retrospective cohort study with matched sibling controls. Sample population Imaging records from 1897 yearling Standardbred horses.

Menopause and vascular endothelial health: Is it all about the oestrogen?

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of mortality in women, and CVD risk is accelerated during the menopause transition. This acceleration has traditionally been attributed to the hallmark decline in oestradiol with menopause. However, the menopause transition is also characterized by changes in other sex hormones that exert effects

Mitochondrial capacities and quality control following short‐ and long‐term weight restoration after simulated anorexia nervosa

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a psychiatric disorder characterized by prolonged caloric restriction and skeletal muscle atrophy. Mitochondrial health is a key mediator of muscle function, yet the role of mitochondria during AN and following weight regain has not been investigated. The objective of this study was to evaluate mitochondrial capacities

Genetic Indicators of Performance Resilience in Barrel Racing Quarter Horses

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Resilience, defined as the capacity to maintain consistent performance under variable conditions, has emerged as a relevant breeding objective in livestock systems, yet remains largely unexplored in equine populations. The objectives of this study were to (1) derive indicators of resilience from longitudinal barrel racing time (BRT) records in

Placental crises: disruptive selection and maternal under‐investment as the foundations of mammalian placental evolution and dysfunction

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1627-1640, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Among the vertebrates, mammals are notable for the dominance of live birth and placental nutrition. The structural diversity of the mammalian placenta is remarkable, despite sharing a single common ancestor and conserved physiological functions.
