Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Prevalence of insulin dysregulation in a sport horse population as determined by traditional and stall‐side testing

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The prevalence of insulin dysregulation (ID) has not been investigated in sport horses. Stall‐side insulin assays offer convenience but need further validation. Objectives To determine the prevalence of and risk factors for ID in a sport horse population using an oral sugar test (OST) and assess agreement between stall‐side and ...
