The hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal axis response to ovine corticotropin‐releasing‐hormone stimulation tests in healthy and hospitalized foals

Background The hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenocortical axis (HPAA) response to sepsis can be impaired in critical illness. Corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH) stimulation test might assess HPAA function in foals. Objective To evaluate plasma cortisol, ACTH, arginine vasopressin (AVP), and endogenous...

Zusammenfassung:Background The hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenocortical axis (HPAA) response to sepsis can be impaired in critical illness. Corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH) stimulation test might assess HPAA function in foals. Objective To evaluate plasma cortisol, ACTH, arginine vasopressin (AVP), and endogenous CRH (eCRH) response to different doses of ovine CRH (oCRH). Animals Healthy (n = 14) and hospitalized (n = 15) foals
