Christopher Johnston, DVM, PhD, spoke about Impact in the Athletic Horse; about Heel Expansion; and also about Objective Biomechanical Testing of Horseshoes. Dr. Johnston finds that a softer surface may absorb as much as 90% of the impact forces. In his laboratory studies, as much as 80% o...
Antigens may be contained within or on bacteria, viruses, other microorganisms, or cancer cells. Antigens may also exist on their own—for example, as pollen or food molecules. A normal immune response consists of recognizing a foreign antigen, mobilizing forces to defend against it, and ...
The thin myelination of Aδ nerve fibers allows for the quick transmission of impulses, producing the sharp, acute pain that stimulates rapid withdrawal from a stimulus [9]. In contrast, the unmyelinated C-fibers have slower transmission of electrical impulses. In horses, action potentials ...
