Adaptations in equine axial movement and muscle activity occur during induced fore- and hindlimb lameness: A kinematic and electromyographic evaluation during in-hand trot

Tijn J. P. Spoormakers et al.

Summary: This study aimed to compare thoracolumbar motion and muscle activation in horses during normal locomotion and lameness. The results showed significant changes in thoracolumbar and pelvic motion, as well as longissimus dorsi activity, during forelimb and hindlimb lameness.

Continuous versus discrete data analysis for gait evaluation of horses with induced bilateral hindlimb lameness

Ineke H. Smit et al.

Summary: The study compared continuous and discrete data analysis techniques for evaluating kinematic gait adaptations to lameness. Results showed both methods identified changes in pelvis and forelimb kinematics, while only discrete data analysis revealed significant changes in hindlimb and back kinematics. Continuous data analysis provided additional information on the timing and duration of the differences found.

Reliable and clinically applicable gait event classification using upper body motion in walking and trotting horses

Christoffer Roepstorff et al.

Summary: This study utilized optical motion capture to measure the gait of 222 horses, achieving accurate gait classification and detection of left/right hind limb ground contact. The method demonstrated a high accuracy rate on test data without the need for limb kinematics, making it suitable for clinical applications.

Muscle Function and Kinematics during Submaximal Equine Jumping: What Can Objective Outcomes Tell Us about Athletic Performance Indicators?

Lindsay St George et al.

Summary: This study aimed to quantify the differences and relationships between movement and muscle activation strategies in horses with varying jump technique to identify objective jumping performance indicators. Findings showed that horses with the greatest center of mass elevation during jump displayed faster gluteal contractions at take-off, which were correlated with faster approach speed, rapid hindlimb shortening, and vertical displacement and velocity of the center of mass, as well as shorter hindlimb stance duration at take-off. These results provide objective support for prioritizing equestrian-derived performance indicators related to engagement, impulsion, and hindlimb muscle power when selecting or training jumping horses.
