“…Physiological indicators such as blood temperature ( 58 , 59 ), rectal temperature ( 39 , 42 , 46 , 60 , 61 ), heart rate ( 30 , 39 , 40 , 42 , 46 , 47 , 49 , 61 , 62 ), respiration rate ( 30 , 39 , 42 , 46 , 61 ), hematological profile ( 30 , 40 , 49 , 61 , 62 ), muscle fiber composition ( 39 , 40 , 63 ), creatinine kinase ( 62 , 64 , 65 ), lactate dehydrogenase ( 42 , 62 , 63 ), alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, citrate synthase, and 3-hydroxy acyl-CoA dehydrogenase ( 42 , 63 , 64 ), have been investigated in relation to the load pulling capabilities of equids ( Figure 5 ). However, the conditions under which this work has been done have been highly variable, so generalization of the results is difficult.…”
