The maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) is a well-known gold standard method for determining the aerobic capacity of athletic horses. Owing to its high cost and complex execution, there is a search for standardized exercise tests that can predict this value in a single session. One of the methods described for this purpose is the lactate minimum test (LMT), which could be more accurate de…
The aim of this study is to evaluate tendon, ligaments and cardiac alterations in horses submitted to treadmill training guided by lactate concentration using elastography and echocardiography applying stress tests (Tstress). In addition, evaluations of biochemical and metabolic variables will be carried out. Twelve Arabian horses will be used, males or females aged between three or four …
Working in collaboration with the Veterinary Medicine and Surgery Graduate Programs of the FCAV/UNESP by giving lessons in a Graduate's class called "Special Topics in Equine Metabolic Disorders" from July 16-20 of 2012. It is intended, on the 07/21, with the Equine Sports Medicine Research Group, to develop a protocol of laminitis induction by euglycemic hiperinsulinemic means. Along wi…

Numerous techniques have been developed to evaluate, prescribe, and monitorequine training, among which lactatemia determination stands out. However, newmonitoring methods are being utilized, offering the advantage of continuous, noninvasive monitoring during exercise. Some of these methods include surfaceelectromyography (sEMG), acoustic myography (AMG), and kinematics. Therefore, thepri…
The application of non-invasive techniques to evaluate equine athletes has become an object of study in several areas of equine medicine. Among these, heart rate variability (HRV) stands out as a way of evaluating sympathovagal balance through the intervals between successive normal R waves (RRi or NNi). HRV comprises linear (time [TD] and frequency [FD] domains) and non-linear analyzes f…
Tendonopathies of the thoracic limbs are among the most common conditions in equine sports medicine, causing a decrease in performance in athletic horses and affecting their well-being. In severe cases, they can lead to the early retirement of these animals. For these reasons, improving non-invasive methods of tendon evaluation becomes essential, enhancing the ability to identify and moni…
Exercise, especially that performed during training periods, is responsible for the developmentof injuries and tendon ruptures resulting from physical exercise. The detection of early patternsof changes in tendon fibers is of crucial importance as it enables early diagnosis and can preventthe occurrence of catastrophes in tendon structures that are responsible for long periods ofabsence f…
Among the various expanding areas related to equine medicine, cardiology receives special attention to its advances in the development of cardiac assessment protocols, with electrocardiography and echocardiography being the most recurrent exams. To this end, several studies focused on equine cardiology are published annually. These studies have great value in the training of veterinarians…

In horses, exercise on soft surfaces is known to alter energy consumption. Regarding muscle activation, it is understood that there is increased lumbar muscle demand under such conditions. However, information on the effect of different surfaces on limbs is still scarce. Surface electromyography (sEMG) is the most commonly used method to evaluate muscle contraction. By recording electrica…
