Proteomic analysis of sperm from fertile stallions and subfertile stallions due to impaired acrosomal exocytosis

Scientific Reports
Thoroughbred stallions that carry a double-homozygous genotype A/A-A/A for SNPs rs397316122 and rs69101140 in exon 5 of the FKBP6 gene (chr13; EquCab3.0) are uniquely subfertile due to impaired acrosomal exocytosis (IAE).

Air pollution exposure during training impairs performance in Thoroughbred racehorses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ambient air pollution contributes substantially to human morbidity and mortality, and athletes are recognised as a particularly vulnerable group. However, little is known about the impact of air pollution on equine athletes. Objectives To explore the relationship between air pollution exposure during the pre‐competition training ...

Radiographic identification and description of the equine middle conchal sinus (ethmoidal sinus): Implications for diagnosing middle conchal sinusitis

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The middle conchal sinus (MCS) (ethmoidal sinus) remains one of the least understood equine paranasal compartments. Despite recognition of its involvement in sinonasal disease, disorders of the MCS often remain underdiagnosed in the absence of computed tomographic (CT) imaging due to limited anatomical understanding and challenges ...

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 ...

Validation of a smart textile electrocardiographic monitoring device in racehorses during high‐speed exercise

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Exercise‐associated cardiac arrhythmias may contribute to poor performance and sudden cardiac death in horses. Widespread monitoring is limited by device availability and suitability for field use. Objectives To (1) compare electrocardiographic (ECG) quality from a smart textile system (Myant Skiin Equine) with a reference device ...
