Obesity has been identified as an important risk factor for asthma in humans, and researchers in the US are working to identify if such a link exists in horses.
While some evidence suggests there is an association between the two in horses, it has not been fully explored. If a link is identified, the findings will help improve the understanding, diagnosis and management of asthma, especially in obese equine patients.
