The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence rates and risk factors for equine glandular gastric disease (EGGD) and equine squamous gastric disease (ESGD) in a population of 63 polo horses in competition. The prevalence of EGGD grade ≥ 1 was 69% and EGGD ≥ 2 was 31%. The prevalence of ESGD grade ≥ 1 was 54% and grade ≥ 2 was 37%. The risk factors retained in the final multivariable models were years of experience in polo competition for EGGD grade ≥ 1 and for grade ≥ 2, with decreased experience being associated with EGGD and weekly exercise duration and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use being associated with ESGD grade ≥ 1. Decreasing weekly exercise duration was the only risk factor associated with ESGD grade ≥ 2. Equine gastric disease was common in this population of polo horses and the amount of experience and weekly exercise duration were related to the risk of disease.
本研究的目的是确定63匹参加比赛的马球马中马腺性胃病（EGGD）和马鳞状胃病（ESGD）的患病率及风险因素。EGGD≥1级的患病率为69%，EGGD≥2级的患病率为31%。ESGD≥1级的患病率为54%，≥2级的患病率为37%。最终多变量模型中保留的风险因素，对于EGGD≥1级和≥2级而言是马球比赛经验年限，经验减少与EGGD相关；对于ESGD≥1级而言是每周运动时长和使用非甾体抗炎药（NSAID）。每周运动时长减少是与ESGD≥2级相关的唯一风险因素。马胃病在这群马球马中很常见，经验量和每周运动时长与患病风险相关。
