Strongyle Control in Horses
•
1 like•753 views
This document discusses strongyle control in horses. Strongyles are intestinal parasites that infect horses. Traditionally, all horses were treated periodically with anthelmintic drugs to kill strongyle larvae and adults. However, this approach has led to increased anthelmintic resistance in small strongyles. Now, a targeted approach is recommended where only horses with moderate to high fecal egg counts based on diagnostic testing are treated. This targeted approach helps minimize drug use and slow the development of further anthelmintic resistance.

Carbohydrate consumption after workouts benefits your immune system
Carbohydrate consumption after exercise benefits the immune system by promoting the survival, activation, and proliferation of T-cells and natural killer (NK) cells. Two studies found that consuming carbohydrates after intense exercise maintained higher levels of helper T-cells, cytotoxic T-cells, and NK cells compared to a placebo. However, the small sample sizes and use of male subjects only limits the ability to generalize the findings to all populations. More research is still needed to fully understand how carbohydrates impact immune cell function after exercise.

Sixteen sexually matured (12 months old) healthy male turkeys were used to determine the effect of Gonadotrophin (Diclair®) on kidney function, weight gain and serum protein values. The turkeys were divided into 4 treatment groups, identified as T1 (control) administered with 1.00ml physiological saline (0.00 i.u Diclair®), T2 , administered with 13.50 i.u Diclair®, T3,administered with 27.00i.u Dicliar®T4, administered with 40.50 i.u Dicliar(R), with one turkey per replicate in a completely Randomized Design (CRD). The injections were divided into 3 doses each and administered intramuscularly in the thigh for three consecutive days. Blood was collected one week after Diclair® administration. Four turkeys were randomly selected fro-m each treatment groupand bled to collect blood for blood chemistry analysis. The turkey were weighed every week for five weeks and their weight recorded. The result showed that there were significant differences (P< 0.05) among the treatment groups in all parameters for kidney function test: chronicle, potassium, sodium, bicarbonate expect creatinine which was similar (p > 0.05) among the treatment groups. The results further showed that there were no significant differences (p > 0.05) among the treatment groups in initial body weight. However, there were significant differences (P< 0.05) among the treatment groups in final body weight and weight gain. Similarly there were significant differences (P< 0.05) among the treatment groups in all the serum protein values measure: albumin, globulin, serum total protein as well as albumin/globulin ratio. The results of the study showed that Diclair enhanced kidney function and weight gain without any deleterious effects on serum protein values of the male turkeys.

LACTOWHEY powder: Provides body’s defense against cancer
Lactowhey powder is a whey protein supplement that provides several potential health benefits. It contains amino acids that help stimulate immunity and increase glutathione levels, which enhances the body's defense against cancer, free radicals, and carcinogens. Pre-clinical and clinical studies have shown that Lactowhey powder may help prevent muscle loss and weight loss in cancer patients by improving nutritional status and appetite. The whey proteins and other components in Lactowhey powder are easily absorbed and can promote muscle strength and immune function.
Recent trends in food biotechnology
Eggshells are a waste material from the food industry that can be used as an effective and cheap calcium supplement. Eggshells consist mainly of calcium carbonate, which studies have shown is absorbed as effectively by the body as pure calcium supplements. Eggshell powder was found to increase calcium absorption by up to 64% compared to calcium carbonate in isolated cell studies. In addition to calcium, eggshells contain small amounts of other minerals and proteins. Eggshell waste can be minimized by extracting calcium through techniques like pulsed electric field processing to utilize the calcium in food fortification and manufacturing calcium-rich foods.

Rats were divided into four groups: a normal control group, an ovariectomized disease control group, and two ovariectomized groups treated with different doses of Bonton Active Granules. Treatment with Bonton Active Granules significantly decreased serum alkaline phosphatase levels and increased serum calcium levels compared to the disease control group, indicating reduced bone resorption. It also improved femoral bone parameters, bone breaking strength, and bone histopathology in a dose-dependent manner. The results suggest that Bonton Active Granules has anti
Vegan companion animal diets
The health hazards inherent to commercial meat-based companion animal diets are extensive and difficult to avoid, and can include slaughterhouse waste, supermarket rejects, restaurant grease, fish contaminants, endotoxins, mycotoxins, and toxic chemicals. Unsurprisingly, studies have identified kidney, liver, heart, neurologic, visual, neuromuscular and skin diseases, bleeding disorders, birth defects, immunocompromisation and infectious diseases associated with meat-based diets. There is no scientific reason why a diet comprised only of plant, mineral and synthetically-based ingredients cannot be formulated to meet all of the nutritional requirements of cats and dogs, and several commercially-available vegan diets claim to do so. Health benefits commonly observed include decreased skin parasites and improved coat condition, allergy control, weight and arthritis control, and improved vitality. Correct use of a complete and balanced nutritional supplement is essential, however, to avoid potentially severe health problems, particularly in cats, and monitoring of urinary acidity is strongly advisable. These topics will be explored in greater detail, and are described at www.vegepets.info.

Efficacy of an equine joint supplement 2015
This document describes three studies that evaluated the effects of a joint supplement containing chelated trace minerals (CTM) and natural eggshell membrane (NEM) on osteoarthritis (OA) in horses and rats, and on sow longevity in pigs. The horse study found that the supplement reduced lameness and biomarkers of cartilage degradation. The rat studies showed the supplement and its individual ingredients decreased pain responses and cartilage breakdown compared to controls. The sow study found supplementing diets with CTM reduced premature culling rates by over 30% compared to inorganic trace minerals. Collectively, the results demonstrate the benefits of CTM in supporting joint and bone health.
Eggs: Solutions to Vitamin D deficiency - Knowledge Day 2016
Dr. Linda Browning discusses vitamin D deficiency as a global health issue and proposes that eggs can be a solution. At the end of the 19th century, rickets afflicted 90% of dead children in cities due to lack of vitamin D. While vitamin D is important for calcium absorption and bone health, deficiency is also linked to increased risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and autoimmune disorders. The document outlines ways to increase vitamin D content in eggs through supplemental feeding of hens. Enriched eggs could help address widespread vitamin D inadequacy globally by providing a rich, affordable source through regular consumption.
Advancing Animal Welfare Standards within the Veterinary Profession
Veterinarians are widely considered to be experts on animal welfare. However, our survey of the positions of five of the world’s leading veterinary associations on five important animal use practices revealed that their positions frequently lagged behind those of the general public. These practices were the close confinement of laying hens in ‘battery cages,’ of pregnant sows in gestation crates, of veal calves in small crates, the cosmetic tail-docking of dogs, and the use of animals in scientific research and education.
To further examine the attitudes of veterinarians towards animal welfare, we ascertained the positions of the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) on a broad range of practices commonly considered to result in poor welfare. With a veterinary membership in excess of 72,000 by 2005—the largest of any veterinary association—and claiming to act as “a collective voice for its membership and for the profession,” the AVMA is ideally suited to this purpose. While the AVMA did not support all practices resulting in poor welfare, it did support a substantial number of them, in some cases contrary to strong scientific evidence.
Such poor positions of veterinarians on animal welfare issues are largely attributable to deficiencies in veterinary education. Although humane alternatives are being introduced, harmful animal use in surgical and preclinical training remains common in veterinary courses worldwide, and although animal welfare and bioethics courses are also being introduced, these remain minimal in most veterinary curricula. Additional causes may include deficiencies in the selection of veterinary students, and misrepresentation of the opinions of veterinarians by their professional associations.
Solutions could include consideration of animal welfare awareness and critical reasoning ability during the selection of veterinary students, increased bioethics and critical reasoning training during veterinary education, continuing education credits for veterinarians who participate in such post-graduate training, the replacement of remaining harmful animal use in veterinary education with humane alternatives, and the encouragement of more active involvement of veterinarians in their professional associations.

It provides information on the American Consortium for Small Ruminant Parasite Control (ACSRPC), which was formed to address issues with anthelmintic resistance and educate on parasite control methods. The document outlines the major internal parasites affecting small ruminants, including gastrointestinal nematodes like Haemonchus contortus and Trichostrongylus spp., as well as coccidia. It describes the lifecycles of these parasites and clinical signs of infection. Treatment and prevention options for each parasite are also discussed.The More Than Ten Things You Should Do to Prevent or Treat Cancer

This document summarizes statistics on cancer increases from 1973-1999 and potential causes and preventative measures. It finds that certain cancers have increased over 100% in this period. Factors that may contribute to cancer risk include refined carbohydrates, sugar, insulin levels, inflammatory eicosanoids, and lack of anti-inflammatory nutrients. Many natural compounds show promise in preventing or treating cancer, including curcumin, resveratrol, vitamin D, selenium, iodine, indole-3-carbinol, coenzyme Q10, lycopene, green tea, and artemisinin. Maintaining optimal levels of these and other antioxidants may help reduce cancer risks and progression.The More Than Ten Things You Should Do to Prevent and Cure Cancer

The More Than Ten Things You Should Do to Prevent or Treat Cancer
This document summarizes statistics on cancer increases from 1973-1999 and discusses various dietary and lifestyle factors that can help prevent or treat cancer. Some key points:
- Many common cancers like breast, prostate, and lung saw large increases over this period.
- Refined carbohydrate consumption in the US increased dramatically from 1820 to 2001, which can fuel cancer growth. Sugar promotes insulin and inflammatory pathways that cancers utilize.
- Several dietary components like CLA, resveratrol, curcumin, selenium, iodine, indole-3-carbinol, and vitamins C, D, and E have anti-cancer effects through reducing inflammation and promoting apoptosis.

Mastitis
This document discusses the influence of vitamin E and selenium on mastitis and milk quality in dairy cows. It summarizes that mastitis is an inflammation of the mammary gland that can be clinical or subclinical, and is caused by various infectious agents. Supplementation of cows with vitamin E and selenium can help reduce mastitis by strengthening the immune system and antioxidant defenses during periods of stress around calving. Studies showed lower somatic cell counts and higher milk yield in supplemented cows, as well as decreased cases of clinical mastitis. Maintaining good milk quality and cow health through vitamin/mineral supplementation can provide economic benefits to dairy producers.
Reproductive performance
- Sixteen female and four male rabbits aged 18 weeks were fed one of four diets containing varying levels (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%) of dried bovine rumen digesta (DBRD) to evaluate its effect on reproductive performance.
- The does fed 50% DBRD (diet T3) had the highest litter size at birth of 6.75 while those fed 25% DBRD (diet T2) had the lowest of 3.75.
- Diet T3 also resulted in the highest litter size at weaning of 5.50, suggesting 50% DBRD maximized reproductive performance in rabbits.

Canthaxanthin from carophyll® red can improve the vitelline membrane strength...DSM Animal Nutrition & Health
Hatchability is certainly a key performance and profitability parameter for chick producers. Storing hatching eggs is a current practice and this can damage hatchability results. Canthaxanthin, as an antioxidant, is particularly effective for supporting hatchability. The vitelline membrane strength (VMS) is very important to the early embryo survival that can-thaxanthin can promote it. The experiment involved a flock of 3,800 breeders (males and females) separated into two adjacent blocks. Feeding experiment started at 18 weeks of age with a control diet as 3000 IU/kg Vitamin D3 and no Carophyll® supplementation and experimental diet as 1,600 IU/kg vitamin D3, 37.5 μg/kg 25-hydroxy-vitamin D3 (HyD®) & 6 mg/kg canthaxanthin (Carophyll® Red 10%). Vitamin D3 or 25-hydroxy-vitamin D3 were not expected to have any influence on the VMS. Eggs were collected at 40/45 weeks and stored 7 days. The VMS was evaluated using a com-pression machine. Stiffness and breaking strength were significantly increased with the supplementation of canthaxan-thin. Thanks to the unique capabilities of high deposition rate in the yolk and singlet oxygen quenching capabilities, canthaxanthin from Carophyll® can improve the VMS in complement to Vitamin E and we hypothesized that it contrib-utes to explain its influence on early embryo viability and hatchability in breeder performance.How Veterinary Medicine Affects Human Health
This document discusses how veterinary medicine has positively impacted human health in several ways:
1) Veterinary research has helped control diseases like yellow fever, influenza, malaria, salmonella, and tetanus.
2) Veterinarians play a key role in food safety by inspecting livestock for diseases and enforcing food regulations.
3) Advances in veterinary medicine like surgical techniques and drug testing have benefited human medicine.
Tools for Managing Internal Parasites in Small Ruminants
This document summarizes research on the use of sericea lespedeza for managing internal parasites in small ruminants. Sericea lespedeza is a high-tannin forage that has been shown to reduce parasite loads in sheep and goats through its condensed tannin content. The tannins are believed to directly impact parasites or indirectly boost animal immunity. Studies demonstrate sericea lespedeza reduces egg counts and hatching, and longer term grazing can decrease mature worm burdens. The document provides details on sericea lespedeza as a forage and its condensed tannin levels compared to other plants.
Effect of flax seeds (linum usitatissimum) on uterine and
This study investigated the effects of an aqueous methanolic extract of flax seeds (Linum usitatissimum) on puberty in immature female mice. Mice were orally administered doses of 100, 200, or 300 mg/kg of the flax seed extract or distilled water (control) daily for 25 days. Higher doses of the extract increased body, ovarian, and uterine weights compared to controls. Ovarian and uterine protein contents increased while ovarian cholesterol decreased with higher extract doses. Serum estradiol levels peaked earlier in extract-treated mice. Vaginal opening and first estrus occurred at an earlier age in mice given higher extract doses, indicating enhanced onset of puberty.

Vocalization in Horses
Horses communicate through vocalizations that provide information about their identity, physical state, and motivation. Different vocalizations are acoustically distinct and contain expressive components that vary in frequency and duration. Being able to differentiate between distress and positive vocalizations can help horse owners strengthen their bond with horses. Studies analyze the acoustic properties of whinnies, nickers, squeals, groans, blows, and snorts to better define equine communication through vocalizations.
Track Surfaces
Sand makes for the best race track surface according to the document. It has good hardness, structural damping, and friction damping properties which helps reduce hoof impact and shock on horses. Sand can also control friction by adding or removing water, unlike other surfaces like wood chips. While other materials like asphalt, gravel, and wood saw dust are cheaper, they are much harder on horses' hooves, joints and tendons over time.
Strangles in Horses
Strangles is a disease in horses that causes nasal discharge, decreased appetite, fever, and swelling of lymph nodes. Left untreated, the swollen lymph nodes can rupture and drain pus within 7-14 days. Vaccination helps prevent strangles and lessen its symptoms. To diagnose, veterinarians perform blood tests and monitor temperatures twice daily. Treatment includes antibiotics, draining fluid from lymph nodes, and surgically opening swollen nodes. Proper biosecurity protocols like quarantining new horses and preventing equipment sharing between stables can also help control the spread of strangles.

Blood-derived Stem Cells for Superficial Digital Flexor Tendon Injuries in Ho...Iowa State University
This document discusses using blood-derived stem cell treatment for superficial digital flexor tendon injuries in horses. The treatment involves collecting a blood sample from a horse's lower limbs, isolating the nucleated blood cell fraction, incubating the cells to stimulate growth, and then injecting the grown cells into the injured tendon site. A study found that after 3-6 months, horses that received the stem cell treatment showed excellent regeneration of new tendon tissue compared to their condition at the time of diagnosis based on ultrasound images. The treatment can quickly repair tendon injuries by regenerating new, high quality tissue.Osteochondritis Dissecans in Horses
Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) is a joint disease in horses that causes sudden joint swelling and lameness. Horses with OCD may exhibit stiff movement and shortened strides due to joint distention, which is the most common symptom. OCD can affect the femoropatellar, tarsocrural, and fetlock joints. Treatment options include conservative management or arthroscopic surgery depending on the location and severity of the lesions.
Equine Coat Color Genetics
This document summarizes equine coat color genetics. It defines key genetics terms and describes the loci and alleles that determine the major base coat colors like black, bay, chestnut and gray. It also explains the dilution genes that produce colors like buckskin, palomino and cremello. Finally, it outlines the genetics behind white patterns like overo, tobiano and sabino as well as other coat patterns like leopard complex, roan and dun. Genetic testing can be used to identify an horse's coat color and pattern genes to aid in selective breeding and check for potential genetic disorders.
Navicular in Horses
Navicular disease is a chronic condition affecting the navicular bone in the rear hooves of horses that causes severe heel pain. It is most commonly seen in Thoroughbreds, Warmbloods, and Quarter Horses between 7-14 years old, and affects geldings more than other horses. Clinical signs include a short, choppy gait; toe-first landing; increased digital pulse; and pain that worsens with work. Treatment options aim to reduce stress on the navicular bone through minimal exercise, corrective shoeing, joint injections, or digital neurectomy. Genetics are believed to play a role in predisposition to navicular disease.
Leptospirosis in Horses
Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection that can cause a condition called Equine Recurrent Uveitis (ERU), also known as moon blindness or periodic ophthalmia, in horses. The bacteria is shed through the urine of carrier mammals like rats and can infect horses when they come into contact with contaminated water or soil. While classic Leptospirosis often causes mild to severe symptoms in foals and adults, ERU occurs weeks to months after initial infection and is characterized by periodic inflammation of the uvea of the eye, causing pain. There is no vaccine to prevent leptospirosis in horses, but antibiotics like penicillin and streptomycin can treat the infection and early intervention improves prognosis for E
Equine Neglect
Over 6,800 equine investigations were conducted between 2007 and 2009, with neglect being the most common reason. Neglect cases primarily involved horses with a body condition score of less than 3, typically due to owner ignorance, economic hardship, or lack of responsibility.
