Outbreak of Lawsonia intracellularis on a Standardbred breeding farm in North Carolina
EQUINE VETERINARY EDUCATION, 21(4), 179–182.
author keywords: horse; enteropathy; colic; small intestine
TL;DR:
The cases reported here are an example of multiple foals on a single farm testing serologically positive for L. intracellularis, a cause of protein-losing enteropathy in weanling foals commonly causing signs including diarrhoea, oedema and unthrifty appearance.

Use of ultrasound to evaluate outcome following colic surgery for equine large colon volvulus
Equine Veterinary Journal, 42(1), 47–52.
Contributors: M. Sheats n, V. Cook n, S. Jones n , A. Blikslager n & A. Pease n
author keywords: horse; colic; large colon volvulus; ultrasound; multiple organ dysfunction syndrome; oedema
MeSH headings : Animals; Colic / diagnostic imaging; Colic / surgery; Colic / veterinary; Colonic Diseases / diagnostic imaging; Colonic Diseases / surgery; Colonic Diseases / veterinary; Female; Horse Diseases / diagnostic imaging; Horse Diseases / surgery; Horses; Intestinal Volvulus / diagnostic imaging; Intestinal Volvulus / surgery; Intestinal Volvulus / veterinary; Male; Treatment Outcome; Ultrasonography
TL;DR:
A shorter time to colon wall involution was associated with decreased post operative morbidity in horses presented for surgical correction of large colon volvulus without resection and may aid in identifying those cases at risk of MODS.
