EQUINE PITUITARY PARS INTERMEDIA DYSFUNCTION (PPID): PATHOPHYSIOLOGY AND A SURGICAL APPROACH TO TREATMENT [PDF]

, 2017
Equine pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) is a common endocrine disease of the older horse. First described in 1932, and likened to human Cushing’s disease, it is associated with an enlargement of the pituitary gland that was classically termed

Measurement of cortisol concentration in the tears of horses and ponies with pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 2016
Abstract OBJECTIVE To compare tear cortisol concentrations between horses and ponies with pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) and healthy nonaged (≤ 15 years old) and aged (≥ 20 years old) horses and to determine whether serum and tear cortisol concentrations were correlated. ANIMALS 11 horses and ponies with PPID and 20 healthy control horses

Evaluation of the effects of age and pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction on corneal sensitivity in horses

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 2013
Abstract Objective—To determine effects of age and pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) on corneal sensitivity in horses. Animals—20 adult horses allocated into 3 groups (PPID group, old [> 15 years old] horses with PPID [n = 5]; old group, old [> 15 years old] horses without PPID [9]; and young group, young [≤ 10 years old] horses ...
