Since iti is possible that additional stressors may exacerbate the agonistic related stress response in athletic horses, we investigated and compared the endocrine-metabolic changes elicited by training and sporting competition in trotters. A group of 8 trotters were randomly subjected to two different treatments: a standard training and a sporting competition. Higher plasma beta-endorphin , cortisol, PCV, total proteins, LDH and Ca concentration were recorded after competition (P<0.001). Within 12o minall parameters returned within their normal reest values.

Abstract
Since iti is possible that additional stressors may exacerbate the agonistic related stress response in athletic horses, we investigated and compared the endocrine-metabolic changes elicited by training and sporting competition in trotters. A group of 8 trotters were randomly subjected to two different treatments: a standard training and a sporting competition. Higher plasma beta-endorphin , cortisol, PCV, total proteins, LDH and Ca concentration were recorded after competition (P<0.001). Within 12o minall parameters returned within their normal reest values.File in questo prodotto:
