Equine botulism

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 333-347, March 2026.
Abstract Botulism is a severe and often fatal disease in equine patients worldwide. Clostridium botulinum is a ubiquitous soil organism which produces a potent neurotoxin resulting in neuromuscular blockade and flaccid paralysis in affected animals. Definitive diagnosis is often impractical or impossible, leading to diagnosis and treatment based on ...

Dynamic navicular motion measured using a stretch sensor is different between walking and running, and between over‐ground and treadmill conditions

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2015
Background Non‐invasive evaluation of in‐shoe foot motion has traditionally been difficult. Recently a novel ‘stretch‐sensor’ was proposed as an easy and reliable method to measure dynamic foot (navicular) motion.

Foot and Ankle Biomechanics in Individuals With Patellofemoral Pain: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Translational Sports Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is a common, multifactorial musculoskeletal condition that primarily affects young and physically active adults. Although previous studies have emphasized proximal and local impairments, the contribution of distal joint biomechanics remains unclear.
