Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) is a heart rate variability variable proposed as a non-invasive tool for exercise intensity monitoring and with a potential association with exercise intensity thresholds and fatigue. The objectives of this study were to (1) describe the first component of DFA (DFA-α1) during standardised field incremental exercise tests in sport horses in active Eventing competition and in sport horses ridden without the goal of participating in competitions, and (2) to determine if DFA-α1 is associated with blood lactate concentration. Null hypotheses of the study were that (1) DFA-α1 is not correlated with blood lactate concentration measurements and (2) the correlation between DFA-α1 and blood lactate concentration is not stronger than the one between blood lactate concentration and heart rate or blood lactate concentration and speed. An in vivo observational study was performed analysing exercising electrocardiograms obtained in 59 standardised exercise tests in the field. DFA-α1 was significantly and moderately correlated with blood lactate concentration (, ). A strong correlation was observed between blood lactate concentration and speed (, ), as well as between blood lactate concentration and heart rate (, ). DFA-α1 correlation with blood lactate concentration was moderate but weaker than the correlation of blood lactate concentration and heart rate or blood lactate concentration and speed. DFA-α1 was not a useful surrogate of blood lactate concentration in field incremental standardised tests used for sport horses in this setting.","PeriodicalId":505672,"journal":{"name":"Comparative Exercise Physiology","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139856986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The antigravity muscles (AGM) atrophy results due to long working hours in sitting, leading to their deteriorating relationship with gravity thereby reduced sensitivity to its force. Hence, need arises to explore training effects of AGM protocol on CPH condition. A randomised controlled trial was conducted on thirty individuals with CPH allocated randomly to two study groups viz. AGMT (n = 15) and Control group (n = 15) who received intervention for twelve sessions over four weeks. Control group received conventional physiotherapy in form of therapeutic ultrasound and exercises while AGMT received conventional physiotherapy using the AGMT protocol. Outcomes assessed were plantar pressure and foot posture assessed using Harris mat, muscle strength by dynamometer, pain threshold with pressure algometer, and foot functions using Foot and Ankle Ability Measure Scale (FAAM) which were taken at pre- and post-training. The between group analysis of data revealed that foot posture, plantar pressure and muscle strength, pain threshold were significantly better in the AGMT group than in the Control group ( 0.0001), while pain intensity (P = 0.3952) and foot functions (P = 0.2372) were equally effective in both the study groups. In conclusion, the AGMT protocol along with conventional physiotherapy proved to be a promising training protocol for individuals with CPH showing positive outcomes in comparison to conventional therapy alone, suggesting to incorporate AGM strengthening alongside conventional therapy to obtain better clinical outcomes.\u0000Trial registration: This trial was prospectively registered in the Clinical trial registry of India with registration number CTRI/2022/10/046138.","PeriodicalId":505672,"journal":{"name":"Comparative Exercise Physiology","volume":"77 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139612840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Icelandic horse is used for several tasks, e.g. leisure riding, competitions and tour riding. Research about conformation and relationship to subjectively assessed performance (usability) in Icelandic horses used by tourist companies and riding schools (TRh) are lacking. Back condition score has been shown to be associated with weight carrying capacity in the breed. However, the association between back condition score and angle and performance in Icelandic horses participating in a breed evaluation field test (BEFTh) and usability in TRh has not been investigated previously. The aim of the study was to compare body measurements in BEFTh and TRh and examine the relationship with riding ability in BEFTh and usability in TRh. Data of height at withers, back and croup, body condition score (BCS) and back angle were collected in 48 BEFTh (age 8 ± 2 years) and 65 TRh (age 14 ± 5 years). Transversal back angle at the 18th thoracic vertebra was determined using a flexible curve ruler. A questionnaire was used to evaluate the relationship between body measurements and owners’ assessment of usability in TRh. The relationship between back condition score and angle and riding ability was evaluated in BEFTh. Compared with TRh, BEFTh had a greater difference between height at withers and height at back and croup, lower BCS and greater back angle (). In TRh, height were positively correlated with usability (). Back condition score and angle were not associated with riding ability in BEFTh or usability in TRh (). In conclusion, body measurements differs between BEFTh and TRh and further studies are needed to investigate if the same conformation traits are associated with good performance in BEFTh and usability in TRh.","PeriodicalId":505672,"journal":{"name":"Comparative Exercise Physiology","volume":" 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139626179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
