DOI: 10.1111/jvim.16598
Abstract: Abstract Background Racehorses commonly develop evidence of mild asthma in response to dust exposure. Diets deficient in omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Ω‐3) might exacerbate this response. Hypothesis To compare dust exposure, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)… read more here.
