Vertical movement symmetry of the withers in horses with induced forelimb and hindlimb lameness at trot [PDF]
Background The main criteria for lameness assessment in horses are head movement for forelimb lameness and pelvic movement for hindlimb lameness. However, compensatory head nod in horses with primary hindlimb lameness is a well‐known phenomenon.

A two-year participatory intervention project with owners to reduce lameness and limb abnormalities in working horses in Jaipur, India [PDF]
Participatory methods are increasingly used in international human development, but scientific evaluation of their efficacy versus a control group is rare. Working horses support families in impoverished communities.

Farmers' practices and factors associated with the prevalence of all lameness and lameness attributed to interdigital dermatitis and footrot in sheep flocks in England in 2004 [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the risk factors associated with all causes of lameness in sheep differed from those associated with the lesion specific causes of lameness, interdigital dermatitis (ID) and footrot (FR).

Alterations in thoracolumbosacral movement when pain causing lameness has been improved by diagnostic analgesia [PDF]
Lameness, thoracolumbosacral pain and reduced range of motion (ROM) often coexist; better understanding of their relationship is needed. The objectives were to determine if thoracolumbosacral movement of horses changes when pain causing lameness is ...

Recognition of lameness and decisions to catch for inspection among sheep farmers and specialists in GB [PDF]
Background: Epidemiological studies have used farmer estimates of the prevalence of lameness in their flocks. This assumes that farmers can identify lame sheep.

Influence of seating styles on head and pelvic vertical movement symmetry in horses ridden at trot [PDF]
Detailed knowledge of how a rider’s seating style and riding on a circle influences the movement symmetry of the horse’s head and pelvis may aid rider and trainer in an early recognition of low grade lameness. Such knowledge is also important during both
