Observations on the T wave of the equine electrocardiogram.
Equine veterinary journal    April 1, 1975   Volume 7, Issue 2 55-62 doi: 10.1111/j.2042-3306.1975.tb03230.x
Holmes JR, Rezakhani A.The paper describes changes observed in the T wave and T vectorcardiogram in horse after various periods of exercise. Using radiotelemetry and a bipole lead all horses showed negative T waves immediately after exercise. In some of them this was followed by a markedly positive T deflection. Possible reasons for these changes are briefly discussed.

Formation of steroids by the pregnant mare. V. Metabolism of 14C-isopentenylpyrophosphate and 3H-dehydroisoandrosterone injected into the fetus.
Endocrinology    April 1, 1975   Volume 96, Issue 4 1009-1017 doi: 10.1210/endo-96-4-1009
Bhavnani BR, Martin LJ, Baker RD.A mixture of 1-14C-isopentenylpyrophosphate and 3H-dehydroisoandrosterone was injected into a horse fetus intramuscularly during laparotomy, after which maternal urine was collected for 4 days. Steroid conjugates in the urine were extracted with Amberlite XAD-2 resin, hydrolysed and separated into phenolic and neutral fractions. From the phenolic fraction estrone, 17alpha-estradiol, equilin and equilenin were isolated. Only estrone and 17alpha-estradiol contained both 3H and 14C, while the ring B unsaturated estrogens contained only 14C. From the neutral fraction 14C-labeled 3beta-hydroxy-5alp...
XO-gonadal dysgenesis in the mare (report of two cases).
Equine veterinary journal    April 1, 1975   Volume 7, Issue 2 109-112 doi: 10.1111/j.2042-3306.1975.tb03244.x
Hughes JP, Kennedy PC.TWo cases of XO-gonadal dysgenesis in the mare are presented. Case No 1 was a pure 63, XO, while Case No 2 was a mosaic with a preponderance of XX cells. The clinical picture was one of phenotypically normal female mares with small uteri and infantile ovaries. The ovaries lacked germ cells, and consisted of stroma only. This study emphasizes the importance of chromosome analysis in providing information concerning the mechanisms involved is some cases of equine infertility.

Jones RS.Surgical repair of a cleft palate was carried out in three horses. Mandibular symphisotomy allowed adequate exposure of the defect. The first subject, a young foal died from inhalation pneumonia but the other two made satisfactory recoveries. The problems of closure of the lip and symphysis are discussed.
[Relationship of citric acid concentration to various quality indices of the equine ejaculate].
Veterinarni medicina    April 1, 1975   Volume 20, Issue 4 223-226 
Cermák O.The paper describes the relation of citric acid to other chemical and biological indices of the fertility of stallion sperm. A positive relation was found between citric acid and the density and motility of spermatozoa, to the concentration of ergothioneine, and hemolytic activity, and a negative relation to pH and to the polarographic activity of proteins. Attention is drawn to the important nutritional function of citric acid.

Symposium on back problems in the horse. Backs-clinical signs.
Equine veterinary journal    April 1, 1975   Volume 7, Issue 2 66-68 doi: 10.1111/j.2042-3306.1975.tb03232.x
Crowhurst RC.Diseases of the back of horse and man are not comparable owing to the great difference in anatomy and posture. Veterinary surgeons, particularly in the United Kingdom, are often requested to account for a poor performance due to suspected "back trouble" but a complete examination of the horse's back is most difficult and care must be taken first to exclude any limb or foot lesions. Diseases of the bones, nerves and muscles are briefly discussed. Diagnosis must be improved by new radiographic and biochemical tests before the significance of back lesions can be assessed or even treated.
Some reflections on clinical research.
Equine veterinary journal    April 1, 1975   Volume 7, Issue 2 81-85 doi: 10.1111/j.2042-3306.1975.tb03237.x
Rossdale PD.The place of clinical research in the veterinary profession is discussed against the author's personal experiences and in the context of how research workers, clinicians, teachers and veterinary students might be brought into a more cohesive unit through the development of a Faculty of clinical research and experimental medicine. It is argued that students should receive training in research and teaching and that efforts should be made to break down the attitude of "them" and "us" which tends to separate the clinicians and academics.
Prolonged perfusion with a membrane oxygenator in awake ponies.
The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery    April 1, 1975   Volume 69, Issue 4 539-551 
Rawlings CA, Bisgard GE, Dufek JH, Buss DD, Will JA, Birnbaum ML, Chopra PS, Kahn DR.Prolonged extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (PEMO) was performed in 6 adult ponies with the membrane oxygenator in vein-to-artery bypass circuit. A flow rate equal to 46 per cent of control cardiac output was diverted through the PEMO circuit of 10 to 24 hours. Three of the 6 ponies were perfused for at least 20 hours and developed no complications. Immediately following initiation of PEMO, left ventricular output decreased; however, in the interval between 6 and 24 hours, left ventricular output was increased above control levels. Aortic pressure and left ventricular work were markedly elev...
Cyclic changes in ionic composition of digesta in the equine intestinal tract.
The American journal of physiology    April 1, 1975   Volume 228, Issue 4 1224-1230 doi: 10.1152/ajplegacy.1975.228.4.1224
Argenzio RA, Stevens CE.Effects of diet and time after feeding on osmolality and inorganic ion content of gastrointestinal digesta were studied in 24 ponies. Animals, fed either a conventional or a low-protein, high-cellulose diet, were sacrificed 2, 4, 8, or 12 h after a meal. Animals fed the conventional diet showed cyclic variations in the ionic composition and osmolality of digesta with time after feeding. The most marked variations were seen in the contents of the stomach and small colon. However, results also indicated a cyclic appearance and disappearance of Na in large intestinal contents that correlated with...
Critical tests of suspension, paste, and pellet formulations of cambendazole in the horse.
American journal of veterinary research    April 1, 1975   Volume 36, Issue 4 Pt.1 435-439 
Drudge JH, Lyons ET, Tolliver SC.Three formulations of cambendazole were evaluated for anthelmintic activity by critical testing method in 21 horses. Cambendazole suspension was administered via stomach tube at the dose rate of 10 mg/kg to 3 horses and at the dose rate of 20 mg/kg to 3 horses. Cambendazole paste was given intraorally to 8 horses, and the pellet formulation was fed to 7 horses at the dose rate of 20 mg/kg. Anthelmintic activity of cambendazole was similar for all dose rates and formulations. Gasterophilus intestinalis, Gasterophilus nasalis, Draschia megastoma, Anoplocephala perfoliata, and Anoplocephala magna...
Equine laminitis of alimentary origin: an experimental model.
American journal of veterinary research    April 1, 1975   Volume 36, Issue 4 Pt.1 441-444 
Garner HE, Coffman JR, Hahn AW, Hutcheson DP, Tumbleson ME.Acute alimentary form of laminitis was uniformly induced in 11 of 12 horses by administration of a starch and wood flour gruel and could be graded by previously established (Obel) and presently defined criteria. The experimentally induced laminitis was similar to naturally occurring laminitis, as determined on the basis of lameness severity and vital signs. Packed cell volume, leukocyte count, and total protein were significantly increased (P smaller than 0.05) at 24 and 40 hours after administration of gruel. Arterial systolic and diastolic pressures increased, central venous pressure decreas...

Equine veterinary journal    April 1, 1975   Volume 7, Issue 2 102-108 doi: 10.1111/j.2042-3306.1975.tb03243.x
Ricketts SW.The author describes a technique for obtaining endometrail biopsy specimens from mares. the noraml cyclincal histology of the endometrium and anarbitarry classification histology of the endometrium and an arbitarary classification of the histopathology seen in endometrial biopsy speciemens. Previous literature on the subject is cited. Results of endometrial biopsies taken by the author from 134 barren mares, with histories of subfertility are descirbed and classified. The use of the technique and the interpretationof its find ings in relation to reproductive performance is discussed.
A pharmacological study of chloramphenicol in horses.
Canadian journal of comparative medicine : Revue canadienne de medecine comparee    April 1, 1975   Volume 39, Issue 2 216-223 
Sisodia CS, Kramer LL, Gupta VS, Lerner DJ, Taksas L.Pharmacological disposition of chloramphenicol was studied in horses. Minimum levels of the antibiotic (greater than or equal to 5 mu g/ml) in blood or plasma recommended to combat infections could not be achieved by 4.4 and 8.8 mg/kg I.V. or 30 and 50 mg/kg I.M. or 30 mg/kg oral (as palmitate salt) doses of chloramphenicol. Increasing the dose to 19.8 and 26.4 mg/kg I.V. provided such levels for about two and three hours respectively. A combination of 20 mg/kg I.V. and 30 mg/kg I.M. administered simultaneously did not provide more prolonged levels than 26.4 mg/kg I.V. alone. Chloramphenicol s...
