Vaginal host–microbe signatures linked to placental outcomes in mares
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Ascending placentitis is a leading cause of late‐term pregnancy loss in mares. Although pathogens are presumed to ascend from the caudal reproductive tract, the association between the vaginal microbiome and placentitis has not been systematically examined.

Laser neoureterocystostomy to treat ectopic ureters
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Ureteral ectopia is an uncommon but clinically important congenital abnormality in horses.

Similar locomotor patterns across Quarter Horse disciplines inform lameness assessment
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Lineage‐based selection is central to the Quarter Horse industry and is often justified by the assumption that morphology determines locomotor function. However, objective evidence linking static conformation to discipline‐specific locomotor behaviour under standardised conditions remains limited.

Diagnosis of bacteraemia in neonatal foals using 16S rRNA high‐throughput sequencing
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Sepsis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in foals. Early diagnosis can improve outcome but is complicated by non‐specific clinical signs and delayed confirmation of infection via blood culture. Molecular assays represent a rapid and more sensitive alternative.

Effect of volume for injection of the 15th to 16th thoracic interspinous space: An ex vivo study
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Impinging (overriding) spinous processes (ISPs) are commonly identified in horses with back pain. Diagnostic analgesia is widely used as the clinical reference standard for confirming association with clinical signs of back pain, but the specificity of dorsal spinous region diagnostic analgesia remains poorly understood.
