Investigation of Metformin Contamination in Horses: Implications for Environmental Exposure and Doping Control

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
The widespread use of metformin in human medicine coupled with the detection of metformin in blood and urine samples collected from racehorses has raised concern about the potential for exposure from contaminated stalls. This study describes blood and urine concentrations in horses following intentional exposure of horses to metformin contaminated ...

Determination of Flunixin Meglumine in Veterinary Pharmaceutical Formulations by Capillary Electrophoresis With Capacitively Coupled Contactless Conductivity Detection

open access: yesELECTROPHORESIS, EarlyView.
A CE‐C4D method was developed for the indirect determination of flunixin meglumine (FM) by quantifying meglumine and using lithium ions as an internal standard. The method allows the use of a low‐cost standard reagent, providing suitable analytical performance for the determination of FM in veterinary pharmaceutical formulations.

Women with epilepsy: Evidence‐based counseling across the lifespan

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Women with epilepsy (WWE) encounter distinct and evolving challenges across the lifespan that require clinical management extending beyond seizure control alone. Although awareness of sex‐specific aspects of epilepsy has increased, important gaps remain in their integration into routine care.

Calcitonin gene‐related peptide concentration in cerebrospinal fluid and serum in horses affected by trigeminal‐mediated headshaking

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Trigeminal‐mediated headshaking (TMHS) in horses shares clinical features with human trigeminal neuralgia (HTN). Increased levels of the neuropeptide calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) have been found in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of HTN patients. Inhibition of CGRP in humans has shown promise for pain relief.

Development of the Human–Equine Attachment Scale

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Human–horse relationships encompass diverse roles, from companion to competition partner. The impact of such bonds informs owner decision‐making regarding horse management and veterinary care, yet standardised instruments to measure these unique bonds are limited.

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

open access: yesEquine 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

open access: yesEquine 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]).
