The hindlimb of the grasscutter (Thryonomys swinderianus, Temminck‐1827) was studied using 12 adult (≥6 months) rats of either sex with the mean weights of 1.42 ± 0.20 kg and 0.82 ± 0.13 kg for buck (n = 6) and doe (n = 6), respectively (p < .05). Characteristics of the bones were studied by gross observation after their preparation. Measurements of different segments of the hindlimb were also taken, giving a total average length of 31.80 cm. Correlation coefficients between length of bone and weight of rats were positive (p < .05) in bucks for all bone segments, except the pes (p > .05), whereas those in does were all non‐significant (p > .05), with significant sexual dimorphism in the relationships. The average total number of bones in the hindlimb was 92, with no apparent sexual dimorphism. The bones of the hindlimb revealed important differences and similarities in morphology with those of other rodents. The Os coxae presented a relatively large obturator foramen, formed by the ramus of the ischium and shaft of the pubis. The femur had a body and two extremities with a prominent head, well‐defined neck and trochanter. The fibula, a slender bone with triangular‐shaped proximal extremity, ran down the length of tibia with proximal attachment (via cartilage) and distal fusion, leaving an extensive interosseus space. The pes revealed eight tarsals and four metatarsals; each of the metatarsals showed three phalanges. 相似文献

This study was performed to examine and clarify the cause of hindlimb ataxia and neuropathy seen in the South Korean horse population. Fifty horses diagnosed with hindlimb ataxia and neuropathy were referred for this study. Neurological examination was performed on 47 horses while necropsy was performed in all 50 animals. The occurrence of neurological diseases increased rapidly in the summer and 47 out of 50 horses were referred after the end of July. The incidence of neurological diseases started from the southern part of Korea in July and proceeded northward in August and September. Although there was no correlation with age, Thoroughbred and Warmblood horses showed a higher incidence rate than Halla and Jeju horses. The incidence rate was 5 times higher in geldings than in mares and stallions. Of the 20 cases, 16 were diagnosed with eosinophilic meningoencephalomyelitis in 2015. The most common lesions observed in 2016 were parasitic meningoencephalomyelitis (10 cases, 33%) and eosinophilic meningomyelitis (7 cases, 23%). Histopathological analysis of the brain and spinal cord revealed nematodes of approximately 100–200 µm in diameter, microcavitation and infiltrates of eosinophils, and brown pigmented macrophage infiltrates. The nematodes were identified as Setaria digitata via DNA sequencing, performed subsequent to polymerase chain reaction using DNA isolated from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections of the spinal cord. These results show that aberrant migration of Setaria digitata larva in the brain and spinal cord was a major cause for neurological signs in horses. 相似文献

Although the sea otter (Enhydra lutris) is a complete aquatic species,
spending its entire life in the ocean, it has been considered morphologically to be a
semi-aquatic animal. This study aimed to clarify the unique hindlimb morphology and
functional adaptations of E. lutris in comparison to other Mustelidae
species. We compared muscle mass and bone measurements of five Mustelidae species: the sea
otter, Eurasian river otter (Lutra lutra), American mink
(Neovison vison), Japanese weasel (Mustela itatsi) and
Siberian weasel (M. sibirica). In comparison with the other 4 species,
E. lutris possessed significantly larger gluteus, popliteus and
peroneus muscles, but smaller adductor and ischiopubic muscles. The popliteus muscle may
act as a medial rotator of the crus, and the peroneus muscle may act as an abductor of the
fifth toe and/or the pronator of the foot. The bundles of the gluteus superficialis muscle
of E. lutris were fused with those of the tensor fasciae latae muscle and
gluteofemoralis muscles, and they may play a role in femur abduction. These results
suggest that E. lutris uses the abducted femur, medially rotated crus,
eversion of the ankle and abducted fifth digit or extended interdigital web as a powerful
propulsion generator. Therefore, we conclude that E. lutris is a complete
aquatic animal, possessing differences in the proportions of the hindlimb muscles compared
with those in other semi-aquatic and terrestrial mustelids. 相似文献

Reasons for performing the study: Flexion tests are a common tool during the prepurchase and clinical lameness examination, yet studies quantifying the effect of flexion, apart from distal forelimb flexion in sound horses, are sparse. Objectives: To investigate the effect of proximal hindlimb flexion on perceivable and measurable changes in movement symmetry in horses with objective movement symmetry falling within the margins of ‘sound’. Methods: Thirteen horses, selected based on objective movement symmetry, were instrumented with inertial sensors on left and right tuber coxae and over the os sacrum. Vertical movement symmetry was quantified at trot before and after proximal hindlimb flexion, with a repeat of flexion after 5 min. Video recordings of the horses were assessed visually. Results: Proximal hindlimb flexion introduced additive changes in movement symmetry to the individual baseline movement, with a tendency towards smaller effects with increasing stride number. The main systematic effect was a decrease in upward movement of the os sacrum following mid‐stance of the flexed limb and an increase in upward movement following mid‐stance of the nonflexed limb, also manifesting in a ‘hip hike’ of the flexed limb; these findings reflected increased movement asymmetry following flexion. Depending on individual baseline asymmetry, flexion can also increase movement symmetry. Conclusions: Proximal hindlimb flexion can exacerbate subtle asymmetry when performed carefully. Variation in measured symmetry following flexion within and between horses showed that the individual response to flexion is highly variable. Potential relevance: Proximal hindlimb flexion may elevate the asymmetry of a slightly lame limb above the threshold for visibility, thus assisting in the clinical gait examination. Further work is needed to examine the causes for a positive response to flexion and possible differences between sound and lame horses as well as horses of different athletic disciplines. 相似文献

Reasons for performing study: A significant proinflammatory response is known to occur in the forelimb lamina after carbohydrate administration. As the hindlimbs are often less affected by laminitis compared with the forelimbs, we assessed hindlimb inflammatory response in the early stages of carbohydrate‐induced laminitis to determine whether differences in the response existed. Objective: To determine whether a similar proinflammatory response occurs in the hindlimb laminae to that previously reported for the forelimb. Methods: Archived laminar samples from 12 horses administered 17.6 g of starch (85% corn starch, 15% wood flour)/kg bwt via nasogastric tube that were anaesthetised either after developing a temperature >38.9°C (DEV; n = 6) or at the onset of Obel grade 1 lameness (OG1; n = 6) were used in addition to 6 control horses (CON) that were anaesthetised 24 h after administration of water. Real‐time quantitative polymerase chain reaction for selected proinflammatory mediators and MAC387 immunohistochemistry were performed. The data were analysed nonparametrically to compare groups. Results: Increases in laminar MAC387‐positive leucocytes and laminar messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) concentrations (P<0.05) for interleukin‐1β, interleukin‐6, cyclo‐oxygenase‐2, chemokine (C‐X‐C motif)ligand (CXCL)1 and CXCL8 were present in both fore‐ and hindlimb laminae from horses with OG1 lameness. Both CXCL1 and CXCL8 were also increased in forelimb and hindlimb laminae in the DEV horses. Conclusions: Administration of carbohydrate resulted in a similar inflammatory response in the hindlimb laminae to that previously reported for the forelimb laminae. These findings suggest that other factors, such as weightbearing, may play an important role in the development of laminitis after a systemic inflammatory condition develops. Potential relevance: Evidence of inflammation in the hindlimb laminae suggests that the hindfeet should be addressed in the septic horse at risk for laminitis; however, laminitis is often less severe in the hindlimbs due to other factors, such as weightbearing and hoof angle. 相似文献

A horse presented with a discharging wound over the proximal aspect of the right metatarsal region. Examination, radiography and ultrasonography diagnosed a septic process within the accessory ligament of the deep digital flexor tendon (ALDDFT). Due to previous unsuccessful treatment with systemic antibiotics as well as financial restrictions, an ALDDFT desmectomy was performed with the patient under standing sedation and local analgesia. Histopathology confirmed the septic process within the affected structure. The patient made a rapid recovery and was discharged from the hospital 7 days post operatively and 2 years later was still in full work. This report describes the first case of infective hindlimb ALDDFT and the first desmectomy of this structure performed under standing sedation. 相似文献

A congenital defect of the right hindlimb of a 36‐h‐old Thoroughbred foal as reported for the first time in Trinidad, West Indies. The foal was subjected to euthanasia and radiographs of both hindlimbs revealed that the bones distal to P1 of the right hindlimb only, were missing. Insertion of both the superficial and deep digital flexor tendons were found to be on the most proximal aspect of P1. Necropsy revealed no other congential defects. 相似文献
