Alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists as analgesic drugs in equine medicine
Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.Summary Managing pain in horses is challenging despite the availability of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs, local anaesthetics, opioids and α2‐adrenoreceptor agonists. While α2‐agonists are widely used for sedation and restraint, their analgesic properties remain underutilised.

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.Summary Carpal valgus deformities remain a common challenge in foals, yet their aetiology is often multifactorial and rarely attributable to a single anatomical anomaly. Recent case reports by Müller et al. (2025) suggest that rudimentary ulnas may play a causative role in these deformities, but such claims warrant closer scrutiny.

Antibiotic use in equine dentistry: What is the evidence?
Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.Summary Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a major threat to human and veterinary health. In equine dentistry, antibiotics are commonly used despite limited evidence supporting their efficacy. While antimicrobials include antifungals, antivirals, parasiticides and antiseptics, this review focuses specifically on antibiotics, aiming to inform ...

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Clinical evaluation of alar fold (AF) collapse is presently based upon subjective evaluation of improvement in breathing and respiratory noise after suturing the AFs dorsally. Objectives To evaluate use of nasopharyngeal airway pressure (NAP) as an objective method of assessing for the presence of AF collapse during exercise.

Inspiratory and expiratory tracheal pressures during high‐intensity exercise in harness racehorses
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Exercise‐related upper respiratory tract (URT) disorders are common in racehorses. Objective assessment of URT mechanics is essential to quantify degrees of obstruction caused by URT disorders identified upon dynamic endoscopy. Objectives To establish reference values for inspiratory and expiratory tracheal pressures (cmH2O) during ...
