Equine viral arteritis.

Abstract: Equine viral arteritis is an infrequently encountered contagious viral disease of equids that has assumed increased veterinary medical and economic significance since the 1984 epidemic in Thoroughbreds in Kentucky. The most important consequences of this infection are abortion in the mare and establishment of the carrier state in the stallion. Equine arteritis virus becomes localized in the reproductive tract of a relatively high percentage of infected stallions which serve as very efficient transmitters of the infection through direct or indirect venereal contact with susceptible mares. The long-term persistently infected stallion appears to play a major epidemiologic role in the dissemination and perpetuation of the virus in horse populations throughout the world. Aspects of the pathogenesis, immunity, and epidemiology of equine arteritis virus are discussed in relation to current methods for the diagnosis, treatment, and control of this disease.

Summary

This research summary has been generated with artificial intelligence and may contain errors and omissions. Refer to the original study to confirm details provided. Submit correction.

This research article focuses on equine viral arteritis, a contagious infection affecting horses, and discusses its impacts, transmission, epidemiology and current strategies for diagnosis, treatment and prevention.

Overview of Equine Viral Arteritis

  • Equine viral arteritis is explained as a contagious viral infection occurring sporadically in horses and has gained significant attention within veterinary medicine and the economy mainly due to a major outbreak in 1984 amongst Thoroughbreds in Kentucky.
  • The illness is particularly concerning due to two critical outcomes: firstly, it can cause mares to abort, and secondly, it can create a carrier state in stallions, making them long-term transmitters of the virus.

Transmission of the Virus

  • The study reveals that the virus tends to become established in a high percentage of infected stallions’ reproductive tracts.
  • These stallions, once infected, morph into highly potent sources of the infection, passing on the virus to susceptible mares either directly or indirectly. The paper indicates that venereal contact is a common mode of transmission.

Epidemiology and Spread of the Virus

  • The report points out that long-term carriers of equine arteritis virus – mainly stallions – have a prominent role in spreading and maintaining the virus across horse populations globally, impacting epidemiological outcomes.

Pathogenesis and Immunity

  • Aspects of the pathogenesis (how the virus causes disease) and immunity are discussed in this study. However, without more details, it is unclear what conclusions or findings the paper has on these specific areas. It may relate to how the virus interacts with the horses’ immune system and the clinical symptoms associated with infection.

Diagnosis, Treatment, and Control of the Disease

  • The paper mentions current methods of diagnosing, treating, and controlling equine viral arteritis but doesn’t provide further details. These approaches could encompass a range of strategies from laboratory testing and medical therapies to vaccination and quarantining measures.
