Comminuted fractures of the proximal phalanx in horses: A multicentre retrospective review
Summary Background Comminuted fractures of the proximal phalanx (CFPP), defined as the presence of three or more major fracture fragments, present difficult management challenges. Feedback from practitioners and long‐term follow‐up can be helpful to reassess evidence‐based treatment strategies and improve clinical outcomes.

Background Laminitis is often associated with endocrinopathies that cause hyperinsulinemia and is also induced experimentally by hyperinsulinemia, suggesting that insulin initiates laminitis pathogenesis.

Comparison of computed tomographic, radiographic and anatomical dorsal hoof wall measurements
Summary Background No comparison of radiographic and computed tomographic (CT) dorsal hoof wall (DHW) thickness and DHW to the palmar length of the distal phalanx (DHWDP) ratio has been published. Radiographic measurements obtained with and without radiodense markers on the DHW have not been compared.

biomechanical considerations in equine laminitis [PDF]
This thesis offers a contemporary review of the biomechanics involved in the disease of equine laminitis with respect to the methods of prevention and treatment. It begins with an introduction of the anatomy of the equine foot and how that anatomy serves

Summary A 20‐year‐old Camargue pony mare was referred for acute‐onset neurological signs and intermittent colic. Clinical examination revealed obtundation, cranial nerve deficits, head pressing, ventral strabismus and ataxia. Laboratory analyses showed marked hyperammonaemia, hyperbilirubinemia, severe increases in liver enzymes, hypoalbuminaemia and ...

General Clinical Aspects of the Laminitis Case
Laminitis is a disease of adult horses, and is generally not reported in horses aged less than one year, with the exception of congenital mechanobullous disorders that may cause similar lesions and rarely avascular necrosis of the distal limbs in ...

ABSTRACT Background Total adiponectin (TA) is a marker of metabolic health in equids, with values below a critical decision point of < 7.9 μg/mL conferring increased risk of laminitis. Objectives To evaluate an IT assay to measure serum [TA] in equids and to assess its correlation with [high molecular weight adiponectin] (HMWA) measured by ELISA ...
