The clinical, pathological and epidemiological factors were investigated in 12 horses presenting with severe neurological signs. Although the cases involved differing central (n = 1), spinal cord (n = 4) and peripheral nerve (n = 7) deficits in a number of instances, there were similar pathological findings. The possibility of a unifying aetiological factor, such as a toxicosis, is discussed because of the pathological similarities and as the cases appeared during an unusually long dry period.
对12匹出现严重神经症状的马匹的临床、病理和流行病学因素进行了调查。尽管这些病例在许多情况下涉及不同的中枢（n = 1）、脊髓（n = 4）和外周神经（n = 7）缺陷，但有相似的病理发现。鉴于病理相似性以及这些病例出现在异常漫长的干旱期，讨论了是否存在诸如中毒等统一病因因素的可能性。
