The prospects of developing a screening tool to identify horses with insulin problems using only a baseline blood sample have been buoyed by the findings of recent research in Germany.
Equine metabolic syndrome encompasses a range of disorders of energy metabolism. Problems with insulin regulation are a hallmark of the syndrome, as is obesity. The syndrome places horses at high risk of developing laminitis.
The oral glucose test involves the administration of a fixed amount of glucose through a nasogastric tube. By measuring the resulting insulin concentrations in blood, the insulin response can be quantified, providing a diagnostic tool for the identification of hyperinsulinemia and prediction of laminitis risk.
