The equine industry has a need for a convenient, rapid, and reliable method of measuring blood lactate concentrations ([LA]). We hypothesized that the handheld Lactate Plus lactate meter (LPlus), developed and tested for use in humans, would provide dependable results when used in horses undergoing an exercise conditioning program and that horse's fitness would improve following individualized conditioning based on each horse's velocity at which [LA] = 4 mmol/L (VLA4) was reached. Five adult horses underwent a 4-week training program that consisted of 3 exercise bouts/wk. Horses were subjected to an incremental step standardized exercise test (SET) before starting (SET-1) and after the completion of the program (SET-2). Blood samples were collected before each increase in speed until [LA] reached ≥4 mmol/L, and then the SET was terminated. The [LA] sample range in our study was 0–8 mmol/L. Blood was analyzed at the time of collection using a calibrated LPlus, and plasma was collected for [LA] determination using the lactate dehydrogenase–based enzymatic colorimetric method. Although the LPlus tended to significantly underestimate [LA] by 0.39 mmol/L (P < .001), the LPlus proved to be a dependable device for use in horses based on good correlation with the biochemical analysis (r = 0.978) and Bland–Altman limits of agreement and 95% confidence intervals. All horses showed an increase in VLA4 from SET-1 to SET-2, consistent with improved fitness following our 3 exercise bout/wk training protocol. The LPlus can reliably be used in horses to determine [LA] ranging from 0–8 mmol/L. When determining serial [LA], analytical techniques should not be used interchangeably.  相似文献

Lactate kinetics in whole blood of horses was investigated after exercise of differing velocities and duration. The following categories of exercise were used: A: <11 m/second and >180 seconds (n=35), B: >11 m/second and <180 seconds (n=17) and C: <11 m/second and <180 s (n=10). The mean peak lactate concentration determined in horses in category A was 4.49 ± 2.21 mmol/1, in B, 16.32 ± 4.81 mmoVl and in C, 4.58 ± 1.59 mmol/l. While the maximum lactate concentrations in categories A and C were always found immediately after the exercise, the peaks in category B were measured between the first and tenth minute after exercise. Mean lactate concentrations measured at 2-minute intervals after bouts of category-B exercise tended to stabilize 3 to 10 minutes after exercise; however, mean lactate concentrations measured during the intervals before and after the peak value differed significantly. The lactate concentration returned to pre-exercise levels within 20 minutes after exercise bouts of category C, but remained above pre-exercise levels up to 60 minutes after bouts of category-A and -B exercise. It was concluded that, for an evaluation of lactate data after intensive anaerobic exercise, sequential blood sampling at 2-minute intervals for a period of up to 12 minutes after exercise is necessary. Less frequent sampling may be a reason for the often described irreproducibility of lactate concentrations in horses. After aerobic or mild anaerobic exercise, one sample is sufficient, but it has to be taken as soon as possible after exercise.  相似文献

This study examined the effect of exercising horses 3 times per week with two bouts of 5-minutes' duration at their v10. Six Thoroughbreds were treadmill-conditioned for 6 weeks. A standardized exercise test (SET) was performed at the beginning of the conditioning period to determine the blood lactate–running speed (BLRS) relation, and the SET was repeated every 2 weeks. After each SET, the BLRS relation was used to calculate the horse's speed, which produced a blood lactate (LA) concentration of 10 mmol/L (v10) and 4 mmol/L (v4). Each horse was then conditioned for the next 2 weeks (3 times/week) at its individual v10 for two 5-minute bouts with a 5-minute walking phase in between. Exercise speed was individually adapted to the new v10 every 2 weeks. The v4 of horses decreased after the first 2 weeks (from 6.23 ± 0.41 m/s to 5.95 ± 0.33 m/s, mean ± SD; P < .05), increased in the following 2 weeks (6.33 ± 0.58 m/s; P < .01), and stayed constant thereafter (P > .05). The conclusion drawn was that exercising horses 3 times per week at their v10 for two 5-minute bouts did not improve v4.  相似文献

Physical exercise is known to affect calcium homeostasis in horses, but there is little information on the hormonal regulation of calcium metabolism during exercise. In order to evaluate the effects of exercise and training on calcium homeostasis and intact plasma parathyroid hormone, 7 untrained Standardbred horses were studied in a 6 week training programme. These horses were accustomed to running on the treadmill 3 weeks before onset of training and were exercised on a high-speed treadmill with an initial incremental standardised exercise test (SET 1: 6 incremental steps of 5 min duration each; first step 5 m/s, increase 1 m/s). SET 1 was followed by a lactate-guided training programme (6 weeks in total) with 2 types of exercise in alternating order with a day of rest after each work day: high-speed exercise (HSE) of 15 min duration, starting at VLa4, continuous increase in speed every 60 s by 0.3 m/s (14 incremental steps); and low-speed exercise (LSE) at a constant velocity at VLa2.5, duration approximately 60-90 min. The whole training programme consisted of 8 HSE and 8 LSE sessions. HSE and LSE were calculated to require the same energy expenditure. A final SET (SET 2) finished the training programme. Blood samples for lactate, plasma total calcium [Ca], blood ionised calcium [Ca2+], blood pH, plasma inorganic phosphorus [P(i)] and plasma intact parathyroid hormone [PTH] were collected before, during and after SETs 1 and 2, before and after the first and eighth HSE and LSE. During SETs 1 and 2, HSEs 1 and 8 there was a decrease in ionised Ca2+ and pH and a rise in lactate, intact PTH and P(i). LSEs 1 and 8 resulted in an increase in pH, whereas lactate, ionised Ca2+, total Ca, P(i) and intact PTH were not affected. No changes in calcium metabolism were detected during training. Results of this study suggest that intact PTH is a mediator in counter-regulation of exercise-induced hypocalcaemia.  相似文献

The influence of training on blood lactate concentrations during treadmill exercise and a 40-minute inactive recovery period was examined in seven trained and seven detrained thorough-bred horses. Lactate concentrations were measured in venous blood collected at the end of each exercise state, and at intervals for 40 minutes afterwards. Measurements were made of maximum oxygen uptake (V̇O2max, ml kg−1 min−1), VLA4 (velocity at which blood lactate concentration was 4 mmol litre−1); LA8 (lactate concentration [mmol litre−1] during exercise at 8 m sec−1), peak lactate (highest lactate concentration after exercise), LA40 (lactate concentration 40 minutes after exercise), the time of peak lactate concentration (minutes after exercise) and the rate of disappearance of blood lactate (Rtd). The trained horses had a significantly lower LA8 (2·1 ± 0·1 vs 6·5 ± 1 mmol litre−1, P<0·01), higher VLA4 (9·8 ± 0·2 vs 5·8 ± 0·6 m sec−1, P<0·01) and higher V̇02max (156·3 ± 3·8 vs 107·1 ± 3·9 ml kg−1 min−1, P<0·001). The value of Rtd and the time of peak lactate concentration were not significantly different.  相似文献

The aim of the experiment was to study the relationship between plasma lactate and allantoin accumulation in horses undergoing five exercises differing in intensity and length. Twenty-five adult trotter horses were used (18 males, two castrated, and five females), housed in three training centers. The horses were assigned to five groups: slow trot, over 2000 m (Group 1); slow trot over 1600 m (Group 2); fast trot over 1600 m (Group 3); fast trot over 2000 m (Group 4); fast trot over 2400 m (Group 5). Plasma was obtained from blood sampled at rest, at the end of the bout of exercise and after 15 and 45 minutes from the end of the bout of exercise and analyzed for glucose, lactate, uric acid, free fatty acids (FFA) and allantoin concentrations. Accumulations of plasma lactate and allantoin (mmol/sec) were calculated as difference between end of exercise and rest and between 45 minutes sample and rest, respectively.Ranking the intensity of exercise using the lactate concentrations at the end of exercise, the level of exertion was highest for Group 3 horses and lowest for Group 5 horses (20.9 and 2.8 mmol/l, respectively). At the end of exercise, glucose concentrations were much higher for horses undertaking the more intensive exercise (Groups 3 and 4 compared to Group 2). FFA concentrations were highest at the end of exercise for Groups 2 and 3 and after 15 minutes for Groups 4 and 5. Plasma uric acid and allantoin concentrations peaked 15 and 45 minutes from the end of exercise, respectively, independently of exercise intensity. The relationship between accumulation of plasma allantoin (y, dependent variables) and lactate (x, independent variable) was non-linear: y=0.15−2.61*x+68.3*x2 (r2=0.900; se=0.19). This suggests that allantoin accumulation could be used together with plasma lactate to calibrate the workload to muscle conditions to prevent muscle injury.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of acupuncture (AG) treatment on some hematochemical parameters in five Thoroughbred horses after road transport and exercise. Horses competed in two official races. For each race, animals were transported from their stables to the racetrack. Horses transported and competed in the first race represent the control group. Two weeks later, the same horses competed in the second race. Before road transport, they were treated with AG. From animals, blood samples were collected at rest (TPRE), after unloaded (TPOST), 30 minutes after unloaded (TPOST30), at rest in the transit stall (RPRE), at the end of the race (RPOST), and 30 minutes after the race (RPOST30). The effect of transport, exercise, and AG was evaluated on blood lactate, glucose, red blood cell, hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, and erythrocyte osmotic fragility (EOF) values. A significant effect of transport (P < .05) and exercise (P < .01) was found on all studied parameters in both groups. A significant effect of AG on lactate, glucose, and EOF values was found in transported (P < .001) and exercised horses (P < .05). The results found in this study showed that transport and exercise are potential stressors for the athlete horse that may affect its welfare and physical performance. The data suggest that AG stimulation promoted the increase of blood glucose values and the reduction of lactate and EOF levels suggesting its role in the improvement of the physiological adaptation to stressful stimuli and of physical performance of Thoroughbred horses.  相似文献

Two groups of previously unconditioned young adult horses participated in 6 weeks of gradually increasing exercise on an inclined plane treadmill while receiving a cornoats-hay diet with or without a commercially available dietary yeast culture preparation. Forced treadmill exercise at a workload of 11.98 j/kg/m, equivalent to a workrate of 18.34 j/sec/kg and an estimated ground speed of 5.36 m/sec, began at 5 minutes per day (2.75 Mjoules/500 kg body-weight) and was increased by 5 minutes per week to a maximum of 35 minutes per day (19.25 Mjoules/500 kg) after 6 weeks. Treadmill exercise increased venous plasma lactate concentrations in direct proportion to the duration of an exercise bout, but the increases tended to be smaller after a given amount of work as the horses became conditioned. At the end of 35 minutes of exercise, plasma lactate concentrations averaged 30.08 mg/dl in the supplemented horses and 41.29 mg/dl in the unsupplemented horses (p<.01). Plasma glucose concentrations decreased significantly and triglyceride concentrations increased significantly in both groups as exercise duration exceed 10 minutes. Changes in plasma glucose concentrations were not significantly affected by yeast culture supplementation, while the supplemented horses exhibited somewhat slower rates of increased plasma triglyceride concentrations. During the 35-minute exercise bouts, significantly lower heart rates were recorded in the supplemented horses during the first 5 and the final 10 minutes of the workouts (p<.01), suggesting an enhanced state of athletic fitness. The digestible energy required for work (Mcal/500 kg bodyweight) was calculated to be 0.454 (Mcal/Mjoule) (Mjoules of work/500 kg bodyweight) + 0.024 Mcal/500 kg bodyweight (r2=0.95), with an efficiency of converting dietary DE to work of 53% for both groups of horses. Although the exercise challenges to these horses were not severe, these results suggest that dietary yeast culture supplementation of horses entering into conditioning programs may well enhance athletic training.  相似文献

To determine the effect of dietary starch, bicarbonate, and fat content on metabolic responses and serum creatine kinase (CK) activity in exercising Thoroughbreds with recurrent exertional rhabdomyolysis (RER), 5 RER horses were fed 3 isocaloric diets (28.8 Mcal/d [120.5 MJ/d]) for 3 weeks in a crossover design and exercised for 30 minutes on a treadmill 5 days/wk. On the last day of each diet, an incremental standardized exercise test (SET) was performed. The starch diet contained 40% digestible energy (DE) as starch and 5% as fat: the bicarbonate-starch diet was identical but was supplemented with sodium bicarbonate (4.2% of the pellet): and the fat diet provided 7% DE as starch and 20% as fat. Serum CK activity before the SET was similar among the diets. Serum CK activity (log transformed) after submaximal exercise differed dramatically among the diets and was greatest on the bicarbonate-starch diet (6.51 +/- 1.5) and lowest on the fat diet (5.71 +/- 0.6). Appreciable differences were observed in the severity of RER among individual horses. Postexercise plasma pH, bicarbonate concentration, and lactate concentration did not differ among the diets. Resting heart rates before the SET were markedly lower on the fat diet than on the starch diet. Muscle lactate and glycogen concentrations before and after the SET did not differ markedly among the diets. A high-fat, low-starch diet results in dramatically lower postexercise CK activity in severely affected RER horses than does a low-fat, high-starch diet without measurably altering muscle lactate and glycogen concentrations. Dietary bicarbonate supplementation at the concentration administered in this study did not prevent increased serum CK activity on a high-starch diet.  相似文献

The effect of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibition during exercise on lactate production was investigated in five Thoroughbred horses. A standard exercise test (SET), consisting of three canters (approximately 55 per cent VO2max), with walking and trotting between each canter, was performed twice (control and test, in random order) by each horse. Nphi-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 20 mg kg-1), a competitive inhibitor of NOS, induced a significant increase (P < 0.05) in plasma lactate [5.7 (2.9) vs 11.8 (3.8) mmol L-1], which continued to increase despite administration of L-arginine, the substrate for NOS. There were no differences in cardiac output (Q) or the total body oxygen consumption (VO) between each SET. The results show that non-specific inhibition of NOS isoforms during exercise in the horse increases plasma lactate concentration, although the mechanism/s remain uncertain.  相似文献

Ten healthy sedentary male Thoroughbreds with previous race training experience were studied for 14 weeks. Horses were trained for 9 weeks, using a program designed after those used commonly in the United States. Horses were trained conventionally by slow trotting (250 m/min) for 2 weeks and galloping (390 to 450 m/min) for 4 weeks, followed by 3 weeks of galloping (440 to 480 m/min) and intermittent sprinting exercises (breezes) at distances between 600 and 1,000 m (900 to 950 m/min). The horses were then pasture rested for 5 weeks. A standardized exercise test (SET) involving an 800-m gallop at 800 m/min was administered before and after the 9-week training period and after the 5-week detraining period. Heart rate (HR) was monitored during exercise and at standardized intervals after exercise for 60 minutes. Venous blood for determination of plasma lactate concentration was obtained at 5 minutes after exercise. Heart rate was monitored daily at rest, during exercise, and through the first 60 minutes of recovery. Venous plasma samples (for lactate determination) were obtained 5 minutes after the sprinting exercises. Horses were observed daily before exercise for signs of lameness and were not allowed to train if lame. Differences after 9 weeks' training were seen in the SET recovery HR at 0.5 through 5 minutes after exercise (P less than 0.05 to P less than 0.01). Differences after detraining were seen in the SET recovery HR at 40 and 60 minutes after exercise (P less than 0.05 to P less than 0.01). Neither training nor detraining resulted in differences in plasma lactate concentration after the SET gallop.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Intensive short intervals of exercise are used to condition horses for racing. In this study, the effect of exercising horses one, two, or three times a week during 6 weeks using two intervals with near-maximal speed over 100 m on v4 (speed at which, under defined conditions, the blood lactate concentration reaches 4 mmol/L) and muscle thickness (MT) of supraspinatus and extensor carpi radialis was examined. Thoroughbreds (4-5 years of age) were exercised twice at near-maximal speed over 100 m, separated by a 10-minute period at walk, on dirt track during conditioning periods (CP) of 6-week duration. This exercise was undertaken once (six horses), twice (six horses), or thrice (five horses) a week during a CP. Before, every 2 weeks during, and 2 weeks after the CP, horses were subjected to a standardized exercise test to determine their v4. Before and after CP, the MT of the extensor carpi radialis and the supraspinatus was examined by ultrasonography. There was no differential effect of the number of weekly exercises on v4. Pooling the data of all horses, a decrease of v4 was found. The decrease became evident after the sixth week of conditioning. MT did not change. The results indicate that the examined exercise protocols could negatively impact racing performance of horses.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess whether acid-base profile exhibits changes in regularly trained show jumping horses undergoing increasing exercise workloads. Seven female Italian saddle horses were subjected to three different physical exercise trials of increasing workload identified as three exercise phases (EPs). During EPI horses were subjected to a standardized exercise test consisting of 15 minutes of treadmill, during EPII horses were subjected to a show jumping test (height, 0.9–1.1 m; course length, 300 m), during EPIII horses underwent two jumping sessions carried out over two consecutive days. Blood samples were collected at rest (TPRE), after exercise (TPOST), and 30 minutes after the end of exercise (TPOST30). The values of pH, partial pressure of carbon dioxide (Pco2), partial pressure of oxygen (Po2), bicarbonate level (HCO3), hemoglobin (Hb), and hematocrit (Hct) were measured. A significant effect of exercise workload and time (P < .001) on Po2, Pco2, HCO3, Hb, and Hct values was found. The variation in the studied parameters resulted mostly reversible within TPOST30 in horses when subjected to EPI and EPII, whereas Po2, Hb, and Hct remained higher at TPOST30 than TPRE in horses when subjected to the second day of jumping section (EPIII) indicating a failure to recover. The results suggest that jumping sessions carried out over two consecutive days represent extra workload for horses, and this should be taken into account by veterinarian to prevent acid-base imbalance and for the maintenance of health and performance in equine athletes.  相似文献

The effect of recovery from training has not been studied in horses. Therefore, the effect of recovery was examined with exercise of known effect within a conditioning period (CP). A standardized exercise test was performed at the beginning of CP to determine v4, v10, and v180 (horse’s speed, which produced a blood lactate concentration of 4 and 10 mmol/L and a heart rate of 180 beats/min). Six horses were conditioned for three periods of 2 weeks, 5 times per fortnight at their individual v10 for two bouts of 5 minutes on a treadmill. Every 2 weeks of conditioning was followed by 1 week with reduced workload. Standardized exercise test was repeated after each 2 weeks of conditioning and 2 weeks after finishing CP. Exercise speed was individually adapted to the new v10 for every 2 weeks of conditioning. In addition, peak oxygen consumption before, after 3 weeks of conditioning, and at the end of the CP was measured. The mean v4 increased steadily during CP. v180 did not change, whereas peak oxygen consumption increased between the beginning and after 3 weeks of conditioning and leveled off thereafter. In conclusion, reducing the workload for 1 week after 2 weeks of conditioning 5 times per fortnight at v10 for two bouts of 5 minutes allowed for a continuous increase of v4, but the extent of the increase was smaller than in another study with a similar conditioning program but for the recovery week. The effect of recovery from training needs further studies.  相似文献

Background: Sequential lactate concentration ([LAC]) measurements have prognostic value in that hospitalized humans and neonatal foals that have a delayed return to normolactatemia have greater morbidity and case fatality rate.
Hypothesis: Prognosis for survival is decreased in horses with a delayed return to normal [LAC].
Animals: Two hundred and fifty adult horses presented for emergency evaluation excepting horses evaluated because of only ophthalmologic conditions, superficial wounds, and septic synovitis without systemic involvement.
Methods: Prospective observational study. [LAC] was measured at admission and then at 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after admission. The change in [LAC] over time ([LAC]Δ T ) was calculated from changes in [LAC] between sampling points.
Results: Median [LAC] was significantly ( P < .001) higher at admission in nonsurvivors (4.10 mmol/L [range, 0.60–18.20 mmol/L]) when compared with survivors (1.30 mmol/L [range, 0.30–13.90 mmol/L]) and this difference remained at all subsequent time points. The odds ratio for nonsurvival increased from 1.29 (95% confidence interval 1.17–1.43) at admission to 49.90 (6.47–384) at 72 hours after admission for every 1 mmol/L increase in [LAC]. [LAC]Δ T was initially positive in all horses but became negative and significantly lower in nonsurvivors for the time periods between 24–72 hours (− 0.47, P = .001) and 48–72 hours (− 0.07, P = .032) when compared with survivors (0.00 at both time periods) consistent with lactate accumulation in nonsurvivors.
Conclusions and Clinical Importance: These results indicate that lactate metabolism is impaired in critically ill horses and [LAC]Δ T can be a useful prognostic indicator in horses.  相似文献

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of oral tryptophan (Trp) supplementation on exercise capacity and metabolic responses in horses. Three horses had to perform an exercise test: a 15-min warm-up followed by a 60-min walk (1.7 m/s, W1), a 10-min trot (3.1 m/s, T1), a second 60-min walk (1.7 m/s, W2), a second 10-min trot (3.1 m/s, T2) and a final 30-min walk (1.7 m/s, W3) until the horses were unwilling to continue. The horses exercised on a treadmill at a 6% incline and with a constant draught load of 40 kg (0.44 kN). Two hours before exercise horses were given 50 g Trp (9.8-10.7 g Trp/100 kg BW) by nasogastric tube. A control exercise test was conducted without Trp. During the control test, one horse was able to finish the final 30-min walk (W3), whereas two horses finished W3 after Trp administration. Higher plasma Trp levels after Trp administration did not change significantly during exercise (Trp: start exercise, 524 +/- 41 micromol/l; end exercise 547 +/- 20 micromol/l; control: start exercise, 70 +/- 10 micromol/l; end exercise, 58 +/- 21 micromol/l). After Trp supplementation, blood lactate concentrations were significantly lower after the first and second trotting periods. Free fatty acids in plasma increased during exercise without any treatment-related differences. Although experimental plasma Trp levels were seven times higher than the control levels, Trp supplementation had no effect on exercise performance and metabolic responses to draught load exercise.  相似文献

Clinical exercise testing in the normal Thoroughbred racehorse   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
To evaluate normal cardiorespiratory and metabolic responses of Thoroughbred horses to a standardised treadmill exercise test, we examined 28 horses ranging in age from 1 to 4 years. The group consisted of eight yearlings, eight 2-year-olds and twelve 3 and 4-year-olds. All horses except the yearlings were in training, and either racing or ready to race, at the time of examination. None of the horses had histories of performance problems. On the first day the horses received a full physical examination, resting electrocardiogram, upper respiratory tract endoscopy and either one or two acclimatisation runs on the treadmill. The following day they were given an exercise test on a treadmill inclined at 6 degrees (+10% slope). The test consisted of 3 min at 4 m/sec, 90 sec at 6 m/sec and 60 sec intervals at 8, 10, 11, 12 and 13 m/sec. During the last 15 sec of each step, blood samples were collected for plasma lactate determination, expired respiratory gases were obtained using an open flow mask system for measurement of oxygen uptake, and heart rate was measured using telemetry electrocardiogram. From these measurements, various derived values were calculated, which have been used by others as indices of exercise capacity. These values included: V200 (speed at HR of 200 bpm), VHRmax (speed at which horses reached maximum HR), VO2-200 (oxygen uptake at a HR of 200 bpm), VO2max (maximum oxygen uptake), VLA4 (speed at which horses reached a plasma lactate of 4 mmol/l) and HRLA4 (HR at which horses reached a plasma lactate of 4 mmol/l). The yearlings had significantly lower values than the older age groups for most of the derived values.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of draught load exercise on calcium (Ca) homeostasis in young horses. Five 2-year-old untrained Standardbred horses were studied in a 4-month training programme. All exercise workouts were performed on a treadmill at a 6% incline and with a constant draught load of 40 kg (0.44 kN). The training programme started with a standardized exercise test (SET 1; six incremental steps of 5 min duration each, first step 1.38 m/s, stepwise increase by 0.56 m/s). A training programme was then initiated which consisted of low-speed exercise sessions (LSE; constant velocity at 1.67 m/s for 60 min, 48 training sessions in total). After the 16th and 48th LSE sessions, SETs (SET 2: middle of training period, SET 3: finishing training period) were performed again under the identical test protocol of SET 1. Blood samples for blood lactate, plasma total Ca, blood ionized calcium (Ca(2+)), blood pH, plasma inorganic phosphorus (P(i)) and plasma intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) were collected before, during and after SETs, and before and after the first, 16th, 32nd and 48th LSE sessions. During SETs there was a decrease in ionized Ca(2+) and a rise in lactate, P(i) and intact PTH. The LSEs resulted in an increase in pH and P(i), whereas lactate, ionized Ca(2+), total Ca and intact PTH were not affected. No changes in Ca metabolism were detected in the course of training. Results of this study suggest that the type of exercise influences Ca homeostasis and intact PTH response, but that these effects are not influenced in the course of the training period.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the responses to exercise in athletic horses fed different protein levels. Twenty-four Brazilian Sport Horses (body weight [BW] between 432 and 560 kg and body condition score [BCS] 5.0–5.5) undergoing eventing training were used. The experiment was a randomized design with four treatments (diets) and two exercise tests. Diets were composed of 7.5%, 9.0%, 11.0%, and 13.0% crude protein. The exercise tests consisted of a warm-up and galloping from 6.0 m/s with speed increases every 1 minute until 10 m/s. Venous blood samples were collected at preprandial time, before, during, and after the exercise tests, and at the recovery time. Blood samples were analyzed for hematocrit, lactate, glucose, total plasma protein, serum aspartate aminotransferase, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, urea, uric acid, creatinine, serum Cl, and venous blood gas. The results were analyzed using a split-plot design, and regression analyses were performed. There were no differences in BW and BCS. The protein levels did not affect the variables VL2, VL4, V150, and V200. Serum urea and uric acid concentrations were affected by protein diet levels. After the exercise tests, the blood pH, acid–base, and electrolyte balance of the horses were not affected by the protein of the diets. The protein diet levels did not affect the horses' performance variables. At the same time, high protein concentrations in the diet can alter the acid–base balance in athletic horses and should be used with caution.  相似文献
