摘要：

The association between use of hormone treatments to induce estrus and ovulation and the incidence of hemorrhagic anovulatory follicles (HAFs) was studied in a mixed population of mares (Equus caballus) during two breeding seasons in a commercial breeding clinic. Mares treated with cloprostenol (CLO) were more likely to develop HAFs than were mares with spontaneous cycles (P < 0.001) or those treated with human chorionic gonadotropin alone (P = 0.08). There was no significant effect of season on the incidence of HAFs. The mean (+/- SEM) interval from CLO treatment to beginning of HAF development was 6.1 +/- 0.5 d. Age of mares with HAF cycles was not different (12 +/- 1.3 yr; P > 0.05) from that of mares with ovulatory cycles (10.5 +/- 1.5 yr). (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
