Impact of evidence‐based information on horse owners' misconceptions of colic

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Misconceptions can be defined as ‘false, persistent beliefs’ or ‘inaccurate, prior knowledge’ and can influence decision‐making. Objectives To investigate the impact of evidence‐based information on UK horse owners' decision‐making for colic. Study Design Mixed‐methods cross‐sectional study.

The prevalence of Streptococcus equi subsp. equi carriers in the Netherlands

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (S. equi) carriers are thought to be important drivers for strangles outbreaks. Limited data are available on the prevalence of carriers in European horse husbandry settings. Objectives To estimate the prevalence of S.

Similar locomotor patterns across Quarter Horse disciplines inform lameness assessment

open access: yesEquine 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.

Pelvic axial rotation in hindlimb lame horses changes after diagnostic analgesia

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Visual assessment of mild to moderate hindlimb lameness has low sensitivity and specificity, potentially leading to flawed diagnostic procedures. Pelvic axial rotation (roll) makes the assessment more complex but is also a potential source of information. Objectives To describe pelvic roll patterns in horses with unilateral hindlimb

Validation of a handheld smartphone markerless method for quantifying thoracolumbar flexion–extension range of motion in horses at trot

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Back pain and poor performance in horses are difficult to assess objectively and thoracolumbar flexion‐extension range of motion (FEROM) is not reliably evaluated by subjective observation alone. A handheld, smartphone‐based markerless computer vision system (RealHorse®; RH) may enable objective clinical and field‐based FEROM ...

Validation of a novel instrumented hoof boot with pressure sensors using force plate gait kinetics in horses at walk and trot

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Force plates (FP) are considered the gold standard for quantitative equine gait evaluation but are limited to experimental use. An instrumented hoof boot (IHB) with pressure sensors and an inertial measurement unit would allow clinicians to objectively assess kinetic parameters and gait symmetry.

Managing equine asthma: Owner adherence, practical constraints and environmental protocol evaluation

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Adherence to recommendations for environmental management is central to equine asthma (EA) treatment. Reasons for non‐adherence warrant further investigation. Objectives To: (1) evaluate adherence to recommendations for environmental changes, identify reasons for incomplete implementation, assess changes in clinical signs and ...
