Similar locomotor patterns across Quarter Horse disciplines inform lameness assessment

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lineage‐based selection is central to the Quarter Horse industry and is often justified by the assumption that morphology determines locomotor function. However, objective evidence linking static conformation to discipline‐specific locomotor behaviour under standardised conditions remains limited.

Pelvic axial rotation in hindlimb lame horses changes after diagnostic analgesia

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Visual assessment of mild to moderate hindlimb lameness has low sensitivity and specificity, potentially leading to flawed diagnostic procedures. Pelvic axial rotation (roll) makes the assessment more complex but is also a potential source of information. Objectives To describe pelvic roll patterns in horses with unilateral hindlimb

Validation of a handheld smartphone markerless method for quantifying thoracolumbar flexion–extension range of motion in horses at trot

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Back pain and poor performance in horses are difficult to assess objectively and thoracolumbar flexion‐extension range of motion (FEROM) is not reliably evaluated by subjective observation alone. A handheld, smartphone‐based markerless computer vision system (RealHorse®; RH) may enable objective clinical and field‐based FEROM ...

Phenotypic associations between young horse assessments and orthopaedic diagnoses in insured Swedish Warmblood horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lameness is the most common health problem in riding horses, and insurance data have previously been used to investigate the prevalence of orthopaedic diagnoses in Swedish Warmblood (SWB) horses. Young horse performance testing is an important part of the SWB breeding programme and contributes data to the genetic evaluation ...
