Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gastrointestinal diseases in horses are prevalent worldwide, with colic being among the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in equids. In recent years, the number of papers published focusing on novel diagnostic techniques and treatment modalities has increased, enhancing the diagnosis and prognosis of various gastrointestinal diseases.
We are pleased to invite you to submit papers focusing on new diagnostic and therapeutic techniques in gastroenterology, in both adult horses and foals.
This Special Issue aims to provide up-to-date information about diagnostic techniques in equine gastroenterology, focusing on the improvement of old procedures and the implementation of innovative methods for diagnosing infectious and non-infectious diseases. Furthermore, novel treatment modalities and drugs could be proposed in order to enhance the outcome of gastrointestinal diseases in equids.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: gastric diseases, infectious diseases in adults and foals, inflammatory bowel disease and correlated illnesses, parasitology, pharmacology, and genomics and genetics.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
