Differences in leukocyte profile, gene expression, and metabolite status of dairy cows with or without sole ulcers [PDF]

, 2014
peer-reviewedSole ulcers are one of the most severe pathologies causing lameness in dairy cows and are associated with abnormal behavior and impaired production performance.

Prediction of lameness using automatically recorded activity, behavior and production data in post-parturient Irish dairy cows

Irish Veterinary Journal, 2021
Background Although visual locomotion scoring is inexpensive and simplistic, it is also time consuming and subjective. Automated lameness detection methods have been developed to replace the visual locomotion scoring and aid in early and accurate ...

Preventive Hoof Trimming and Animal-Based Welfare Measures Influence the Time to First Lameness Event and Hoof Lesion Prevalence in Dairy Cows [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Background: The objectives of this study were to, (1) investigate the impact of the Dutch five-step hoof trimming (HT) technique on time to lameness and hoof lesion prevalence in grazing (GR) and non-grazing (NGR) dairy cows, and (2) determine the association between potential benefits of HT and animal-based welfare measures during lactation.

A history of lameness and low body condition score is associated with reduced digital cushion volume, measured by magnetic resonance imaging, in dairy cattle.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2021
Claw horn lesions (CHL) are the result of a failing of the functional anatomy of the hoof in dairy cows. The digital cushion is understood to be a vital structure in the prevention of CHL.

Cow- and herd-level risk factors for lameness in partly housed pasture-based dairy cows.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2021
Lameness in dairy cows is a major animal welfare concern and has substantial economic impact through reduced production and fertility. Previous risk factor analyses have focused on housed systems, rather than those where cows were grazed for the majority
