Equine Asthma in a Comparative Perspective: Cardiovascular and Neurological Manifestations of Asthma Across Different Species.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Asthma is a multifactorial respiratory disease that naturally occurs in horses, humans, and cats, presenting common clinical signs and species-specific mechanisms. This review addresses the impact of asthma on the cardiovascular and neurological systems, with a primary focus on horses. It highlights the need for new biomarkers beyond the respiratory system due to diagnostic difficulties in animals. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed and Google Scholar, focusing on cardiovascular and neurological manifestations of asthma in humans, horses, cats, and experimental animal models. Studies were qualitatively compared, noting species-specific differences and mechanisms. Humans with asthma show an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and elevated cardiac biomarkers during exacerbations, while horses develop pulmonary hypertension and vascular remodeling. Cats exhibit significant pulmonary vascular changes. Heart rate variability analysis reveals altered autonomic function in humans and horses. Increased peripheral airway innervation and cough reflex sensitivity are noted across species. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays a crucial role in asthma pathophysiology in murine models. Asthma impacts the cardiovascular and nervous systems differently across species, emphasizing the importance of comparative medicine. Future research should integrate cardiovascular, autonomic, and inflammatory pathways to develop effective therapeutic approaches in human and veterinary medicine, leveraging insights from naturally occurring asthma models.
