Management and welfare of working equids in the Guerrero state

Ecosistemas y Recursos Agropecuarios, 2020
The management of farm work equids in Guerrero, Mexico was described and related to animal welfare. Sixty-four equids owners were randomly surveyed. Horses were used more than donkeys and mules. The 89% of owners worked the animals before 5 years of age. Only 5% provide helmet management. The 83% of breeders provide living space >4 m2 .

Exercise‐specific plasma proteomic signatures in racehorses: Candidates for training adaptation and peak load monitoring

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.

Validation of a handheld smartphone markerless gait‐analysis tool using an estimated groundline in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A handheld smartphone‐based computer vision algorithm (RealHorse® [RH]) offers accessible alternatives for equine gait analysis but requires validation against a gold‐standard three‐dimensional multicamera optical motion capture system (Qualisys® [QS]).

Mass culture of equine synovial fluid‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells using nonwoven polyethylene terephthalate fabrics

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Culture protocols need to yield 100 million equine synovial fluid (SF)‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (SF‐MSCs) in around 3 weeks are needed, before these cells can be evaluated as agents of articular repair in clinical trials. Objectives To investigate mass culture of equine SF‐MSC culture protocols using nonwoven polyethylene ...

Optimum Tariffs in a Distorted Economy: An Application to U.S. Agriculture [PDF]

Optimal distortions for the agricultural sector are calculated taking as given distortions in the nonagricultural sector. The calculations use a general equilibrium model and assume that the sole criterion is economic efficiency.

Transcriptomic signatures reveal systemic adaptations and immune modulation in response to training and competitive racing in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

What happened after the epidemic? Equine influenza surveillance sheds light on sources and seasonal risk in the United Kingdom

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The epidemiology of equine influenza (EI) in the United Kingdom has not been systematically described since the 2019 epidemic. Objectives To summarise UK EI surveillance (2020–2024), quantify outbreak seasonality and assess movement‐related sources. Study Design Retrospective observational analysis of national surveillance and horse

Spontaneous regression of equine sarcoids is an exceptional event

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Sarcoids are benign, yet locally aggressive skin tumours that commonly affect horses and other equid species. The lesions are induced by bovine papillomavirus types 1, 2, and probably 13 in conjunction with other factors including trauma and a genetic predisposition.
