Comparison of Equine Asthma and Feline Asthma: An Overview

Abstract

Feline asthma and equine asthma (EA) are common respiratory diseases in cats and horses, which can have a significant impact on animal health and welfare, and sometimes even the economy. This thesis provides a comparative analysis of the clinical features, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of these conditions. Investigating these diseases is important as it can lead to a better understanding of their causes, the development of more effective treatments and management strategies, and ultimately reduce the economic impact of the disease.
