Reliability of ultrasound-measured muscle thickness of the longissimus dorsi muscle in Thoroughbreds
Publikováno v:
Comparative Exercise Physiology. 8:189-194
The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability of B-mode ultrasound measured muscle thickness of the longissimus dorsi muscle in horses. Thirteen Thoroughbreds (5 colts, 5 fillies and 3 mares) had their muscle thickness measured by B-mode

Summary Reason for performing study: Older horses have an increased risk of hyperthermia due to impaired cardiovascular function. While many studies have investigated thermoregulation in horses during exercise, none have investigated the effects of a

Summary The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the training-induced hypervolemic response seen in the horse is associated with aldosterone-mediated renal mechanisms affecting sodium conservation during the first days of training. F

Summary It has long been known that body mass and, more specifically, lean body mass are strongly correlated with maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) in man and animals. However, there are no data to date describing this phenomenon in the horse. The purpo

The purpose of the study was to determine whether 12 weeks of exercise training would affect plasma glucose and plasma insulin concentrations in young and older Standardbred mares. Eighteen healthy, unfit mares representing 3 age groups were used: yo

Clenbuterol is a beta(2)-agonist and potent selective bronchodilator that is used to treat bronchospasm in the horse. The drug is normally administered to horses orally as a syrup formulation. Once absorbed into the systemic circulation, clenbuterol

There are limited data on age-related changes in body composition or skeletal muscle in the horse. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate any differences in muscle myosin heavy chain (MHC) and body composition associated with aging.

The purpose of this study was to examine changes in myosin heavy chain (MHC) composition due to chronic clenbuterol administration with or without exercise in mares. Unfit Standardbred mares (aged 10+/-3 years) were divided into four groups: clenbute

Clenbuterol is a β2-adrenoceptor agonist primarily used for treating bronchospasm and alleviating the symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the horse. In other species (rats, mice, sheep, and cattle), chronic high doses of clen
