Medidas comparativas do padrão morfométrico e perfil energético de éguas Crioulas no terço final da gestação, com diferentes escores corporais

Abstract: O objetivo deste estudo é comparar e descrever medidas morfométricas e perfil energético de éguas da raça Crioula no terço final da gestação. Foram utilizadas vinte éguas gestantes, divididas em 2 grupos conforme o escore corporal (BCS); o GrN (n=10), grupo de éguas com BCS 5 ou moderado, e GrO (n=10), grupo de éguas obesas ou BCS 9, analisadas conforme o mês de gestação (8º, 9º, 10º e 11º). Foram realizadas coletas de sangue e avaliações morfométricas mensais do peso corporal (PC), perímetro torácico (PT), pe… Show more

“…Given this stability, correlations between the different weight measurements and fat thickness during this period were expected. In addition, the correlations between measures of fat and metabolic weight corroborate the results of Marchiori et al [7], who demonstrate a difference between the values of fat increase in mares at the end of gestation when compared to other months. This is because the energy reserves for breastfeeding are acquired at this time of pregnancy, being an important tool to assess the differentiation of obese and healthy animals.…”

“…It was to be expected that the fact that triglyceride is one of the components of adipose tissue correlated with fat measurements. Marchiori et al [7] evaluating nonobese pregnant mares noted that the average fat thickness in the rump and retroperitoneal was 1.22 mm and 1.919 mm, respectively, and differed from the pregnant obese mares that dissipated an average of 1.13 mm, 2, 0.8 mm. The maximum value of our animals reached up to 0.889 mm of retroperitoneal fat and 1095 of fat on the rump.…”

“…Athlete horses generally present an ideal body condition score, while animals intended to morphology competitions usually have a higher BCS. Therefore, some authors assumed that Criollo breed is potentially predisposed to develop metabolic disturbances considering the genetic basis of the breed and the tendency towards obesity [13,15].…”

“…Porém, no presente estudo, as éguas adultas gestantes (entre quatro e onze anos de idade) não foram suplementadas com concentrado, diferente do estudo de Heyden et al (2012), onde foram mantidas em sistema extensivo a campo. Contudo, estas éguas, mesmo em sistema a campo e sem suplementação apresentam média de escore de condição corporal 8, média de peso 557,29 +13,66 kg, gordura da base da cauda de 30,54 +3,17 mm e ECC > 8, compatíveis com a obesidade para éguas da raça Crioula, segundo Paz et al (2013) e Marchiori et al (2015). Gomes e Reis (1997), observaram uma concentração de produção de forragem relativa para o azevém de 56% no período da primavera, 30% no inverno e 14% no outono.…”
