Resumen

El diseño estable afecta el bienestar del caballo durante los monzones. Los establos con paredes sólidas y menos espacio aumentan el estrés del caballo, indicado por una menor variabilidad del ritmo cardíaco (VRC).

Área de la Ciencia:

Ciencias del bienestar equino
Fisiología ambiental
Investigación en el alojamiento de animales

Sus antecedentes:

El bienestar del caballo se ve afectado significativamente por el clima y el diseño estable, especialmente en las regiones tropicales.
Existen datos limitados sobre las condiciones equinas en los establos durante las estaciones de monzones.

Objetivo del estudio:

Investigar la influencia de las diferentes arquitecturas estables en el microclima y la regulación autónoma de los caballos durante el monzón.
Evaluar cómo el diseño estable afecta las respuestas fisiológicas al estrés de los caballos en un entorno tropical.

Principales métodos:

Veintidós caballos fueron alojados en tres diseños estables distintos con diferentes microclimas (temperatura, humedad, gases).
La modulación autónoma se midió utilizando métricas de variabilidad de la frecuencia cardíaca (VRC) durante períodos de 24 horas.

Principales resultados:

Se observaron diferencias significativas en los microclimas estables entre los diseños y entre los ciclos día/noche.
Los caballos en establos con paredes sólidas y menores proporciones de volumen a caballo mostraron un mayor estrés (HRV más bajo) en comparación con otros.
Se encontró una correlación directa entre los microclimas estables específicos y la modulación de HRV, influenciada por el diseño estable.

Conclusiones:

Las respuestas autónomas del caballo difieren según el diseño estable, destacando el impacto de la arquitectura y el microclima en el estrés.
El diseño estable, el microclima y la relación volumen-caballo son factores críticos que influyen en el estrés equino.
Los hallazgos proporcionan información crucial para optimizar la gestión de la vivienda para mejorar el bienestar de los caballos en condiciones de monzón tropical.

Palabras clave:

Masonry in Cold and Hot Weather Conditions

Masonry in Cold and Hot Weather Conditions

In cold weather, masonry construction requires specific precautions to ensure mortar does not freeze before curing, as this can significantly weaken its strength and watertightness. Mortar temperature should be maintained between 60°F and 80°F to support proper hydration and curing. Below 40°F, mortar water must be heated, but should not exceed 120°F as high temperatures can reduce mortar's compressive and bond strength.
Other key practices include keeping masonry units...

Homeostatic Imbalances in Body Temperature

Homeostatic Imbalances in Body Temperature

Hyperthermia occurs when the body's temperature becomes unusually high, often due to heat exposure, intense physical activity, or certain illnesses. This condition can create a dangerous cycle where elevated body temperature increases the metabolic rate, generating more heat and potentially leading to organ failure and brain damage. A severe form of hyperthermia, called heat stroke, can raise body temperature to life-threatening levels. Fever, on the other hand, is a controlled form of...

What is Climate?

What is Climate?

Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.

Positive and Negative Feedback Loops

Positive and Negative Feedback Loops

Animal organs and organ systems constantly adjust to internal and external changes through a process called homeostasis ("steady state"). Examples of these changes include regulation of the level of glucose or calcium in the blood or internal responses to external temperatures. Homeostasis requires maintaining an internal dynamic equilibrium:

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress

Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.

Conditions of Equilibrium

Conditions of Equilibrium

Equilibrium refers to a state where a rigid body is not subjected to any translational or rotational motion. This state is achieved when the force and couple acting on a rigid body equal zero. When the system of external forces results in a net effect equivalent to zero, the rigid body is considered to be in equilibrium.
Internal forces are not considered for conditions of equilibrium because they occur in equal and opposite pairs within the body, effectively canceling each other. As a result,...
