Topic:Clinical Findings
Clinical findings in horses encompass a range of observable signs and symptoms identified during veterinary examinations that contribute to diagnosing and managing equine health conditions. These findings can include physical observations, such as changes in behavior, posture, or gait, as well as physiological measurements like heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature. Diagnostics may also involve laboratory tests, imaging, and other diagnostic procedures to assess organ function and detect abnormalities. Recognizing and interpreting clinical findings are essential components of veterinary practice, aiding in the identification of diseases, monitoring treatment progress, and guiding therapeutic interventions. This page brings together peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that explore the methodologies, interpretations, and implications of clinical findings in the context of equine health care.
Serum levels of the immunoglobulins IgG and IgG(T) in horses. Levels of the immunoglobulins IgG and IgG(T) in serum in Norwegian horses of the breeds “Døle” and “Fjord” were determined by the quantitative radial immunodiffusion test. No significant differences were apparent between the 2 Norwegian breeds. The immunoglobulin levels were approximately in the same range as previously reported for Shetland ponies. Immunoglobulins could not be detected in the newborn foal. As early as 24 hrs. after birth the mean immunoglobulin level was within the adult range. After a drop during the first month of life, the immunoglobulins increased. IgG(T) rose mo...

[Interstitial cell adenoma of the hypophysis with Cushing-like symptomatology in the horse]. A trabecular adenoma of the pars intermedia of the hypophysis was seen in a 13-year-old half-bred mare that presented symptoms corresponding to Cushing's disease of man. The spindle-shaped tumor cells were for the most part ‘light’, seldom ‘dark’. Both of them were characterized by well-developed rough endoplasmic reticulum, small Golgi apparatus, and typical secretory granules with a diameter of about 200 μm. The pituitary tumor and the symptoms were accompanied by increased plasma adenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and by bilateral hyperplasia of the adrenal cortex. The tumor cells ...
