Article Synopsis
  • Evidence suggests that mold spores and endotoxins in horse feed can lead to chronic respiratory issues when inhaled, while deficiencies in feed microbiology could contribute to gastrointestinal and liver disorders, though more research is needed.
  • Research has primarily focused on forage hygiene, revealing that microbial contamination is more prevalent in compound feeds compared to cereals, although the average counts in cereals are higher.
  • Higher mold levels in concentrates suspected to affect horses' respiratory health were significantly found, indicating the importance of feed hygiene for the overall health of horses.

The hygienic quality of forage for horses is discussed as a potential health hazard, especially regarding respiratory diseases, colic, and hepatopathies. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the possible relations between microbiological counts, as well as endotoxin levels and disease symptoms. Data from microbiological examination reports were analyzed retrospectively, including the results of sensory examination, microbiological counts, and lipopolysaccharide contents.

A 29-year-old woman had a middle-ear mass that resulted in hearing loss and seventh-nerve palsy. The tumor invaded the petrous bone, the mastoid, at least one semicircular canal, and then extended into the posterior fossa. Microscopically, it consisted of complex, interdigitating papillae lined by uniform, cuboidal to low columnar cells.

We studied the time course of change of lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme-1 (LD-1) in serum of patients suspected of having had an acute myocardial infarction. LD-1 was measured at intervals of 4-8 h during the first and second hospital days, by an immunochemical method. Of the 65 patients in this study, 26 had acute myocardial infarctions by traditional criteria.
