25. RELEVÂNCIA DA ULTRA-SONOGRAFIA DOS TENDÕES FLEXORES EM CAVALOS PURO SANGUE DE CORRIDA NA ADAPTAÇÃO AO TREINAMENTO / SIGNIFICANCE OF FLEXOR TENDON ULTRASONOGRAPHY IN TRAINING THOROUGHBREDS
The cross-sectional area (CSA) of the superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) and deep digital flexor tendon (DDFT) of twenty four thoroughbreds was ultrasonographically evaluated before and during their initial training to determine the effect of exercise on the tendon CSA, texture and echogenicity to characterize the response to training. Ultrasonographic

26. Caracterização fisico-quimica e sensorial do leite de cabra e seus produtos : coalhada e queijo tipo minas frescal
The objective of the present study was the comparison between goat s milk and cow s milk with respect to their physicochemical and sensory characteristics, and their uses in the processing of the fermented product and in "Minas Frescal" cheese. For the physicochemical and sensory analysis, goat s milk from two different sources was used. The so-called thorou

27. Epidemiologic study of Taylorella equigenitalis strains by field inversion gel electrophoresis of genomic restriction endonuclease fragments.
Contagious equine metritis (CEM), a sexually transmitted bacterial disease, was first described in thoroughbred horses. It also occurs in nonthoroughbred horses, in which it produces isolated, apparently unrelated outbreaks. Thirty-two strains of Taylorella equigenitalis, the causative agent of CEM, from all over the world were characterized by field inversi

28. Headshaking in a 10-year-old Thoroughbred mare
A 10-year-old Thoroughbred mare was presented with a 2.5-week history of headshaking. Based on a thorough physical examination, blood analysis, and a fine needle aspirate of an enlarged thyroid gland, a tentative diagnosis of seasonal idiopathic headshaking was made. Treatment with cyproheptadine was attempted.

29. Androgen insensitivity syndrome in a Thoroughbred mare (64, XY — testicular feminization)
A Thoroughbred mare was presented for stallion-like behavior. Reproductive and ultrasonographic evaluation, testosterone assays, and karyotyping confirmed a diagnosis of androgen insensitivity syndrome (64, XY — testicular feminization). Surgery to remove abdominal testicles was successful in alleviating the behavioral abnormality. This condition is discus

30. Injuries in the Victorian thoroughbred racing industry
There is increasing concern in Australia about safety in the thoroughbred racing industry, but there has been no reported analysis of injury data. This review analyses injury and workers' compensation data recorded in Victoria. On the basis of the results, it is recommended that the injury and incident data collection systems are improved such that they are

31. Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in thoroughbred foals: identification of a genetically distinct organism by DNA amplification.
Genetically distinct forms of Pneumocystis carinii infect several mammalian hosts. We report the amplification of P. carinii DNA from samples of two infected thoroughbred foal lungs by using primers designed from the sequence of a P. carinii mitochondrial rRNA gene; these primers also prime the amplification of P. carinii DNA from other hosts. The nucleotide

32. Do Thoroughbred and Standardbred horses have similar increases in pulmonary vascular pressures during exertion?
To test the hypothesis that the pulmonary vascular pressures of Thoroughbred and Standardbred horses behave similarly during exertion. Measurements were made on 5 Thoroughbred and 5 Standardbred horses on a treadmill at rest and during 3-minute exercise intervals at speeds predicted to produce 75%, 90%, and 100% maximal heart rate.

33. Ovarian hematoma in an 11-year-old Thoroughbred-Hanovarian mare
An aggressive mare, presented for prebreeding examination, was found to have a significantly enlarged ovary (soccer ball size). A granulosa thecal cell tumor was initially suspected. Following laboratory and repeated clinical examination, the mare was diagnosed with an ovarian hematoma, which regressed with treatment.

34. Protection against Ehrlichia equi is conferred by prior infection with the human granulocytotropic Ehrlichia (HGE agent).
A Thoroughbred filly that developed clinical signs of equine granulocytic ehrlichiosis following inoculation with the human granulocytotropic ehrlichia was shown to be resistant to challenge with Ehrlichia equi, a closely related agent. This result further substantiates the close and potentially conspecific relationship between these two granulocytotropic eh

35. Association between Respiratory Disease and Bacterial and Viral Infections in British Racehorses
Respiratory disease is important in horses, particularly in young Thoroughbred racehorses, and inflammation that is detected in the trachea and bronchi (termed inflammatory airway disease [IAD]) is more significant in this population in terms of impact and frequency than other presentations of respiratory disease. IAD, which is characterized by neutrophilic

36. Estimation of the carnosine content of different fibre types in the middle gluteal muscle of the thoroughbred horse.
1. Skeletal muscle samples were obtained by needle biopsy from one of two depths of the m. gluteus medius in a group of twenty race-trained thoroughbred horses. 2. The content of carnosine was determined in each muscle sample, part of which was used for histochemical analysis. Fibres were classified as type I, type IIA or type IIB on the basis of the pH depe
