Biomechanical Testing of Double Hemitenotomy for Equine Deep Digital Flexor Tendon Lengthening 

Zetterström, Sandra (2021-07-14)
Deep digital flexor (DDF) tenotomy is performed in horses with laminitis to diminish the force of the DDF on the third phalanx (P3) which causes P3 rotation due to loss of laminar integrity counteracting the DDF pull. ...

Comparison of Tensile Strength and Early Healing of Self-Locking and Surgeon’s Knots for Closure of Ventral Midline Celiotomy in Horses 

Weatherall, Kathleen (2020-07-15)
Characteristics of surgical closure are associated with incisional complications. The surgical knot has been shown to be the weakest point of the suture line. Self-locking knots, such as the forwarder (F) and Aberdeen (A) ...

The effect of concurrent and non-concurrent (delayed) administration of mepivacaine hydrochloride and triamcinolone acetonide on inflamed equine osteochondral and synovial explants in co-culture 

Boorman, Sophie (2022-07-19)
During equine lameness investigation, intra-articular administration of a local anesthetic followed by a corticosteroid is common for diagnosis and treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). Anecdotally, veterinarians are advised ...

The effect of different oxygen concentrations on oxidative stress in anesthetized horses 

Midon, Monica (2021-07-13)
Anesthesia-associated mortality in horses is high when compared with other species, and may be related to development of hypoxemia during recumbency. To overcome this, high fractions of inspired oxygen (FiO2 >95%) are used. ...

Effect of platelet rich plasma lysate and fibroblast growth factor 2 on sperm motility in stallions 

Pinaffi, Fabio (2020-07-14)
Semen extenders are continually tested to improve sperm motility, longevity, and, consequently, improve fertility. Growth factors (GFs) modulate cell function, which could be advantageous to sperm by improving motility. ...

Equine Endothelial Colony-Forming Cells: Phenotypic Enhancement and Ex vivo Angiogenesis Studies 

Mora Pereira, Mariano (2023-07-27)
Ischemic diseases in horses are common and often life-threatening, thus cell-based therapies to improve angiogenesis are gaining interest. Endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) can form de novo blood vessels in areas ...

Orthobiologic use for equine joint disease 

Velloso Alvarez, Ana (2020-11-23)
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the leading cause of musculoskeletal disability in people and Horses. There is a critical need for better understanding of new therapeutics and their effects on the disease. Orthobiologics are ...
