The Noma horse is a Japanese breed from the Noma region of Imabari City, Ehime Prefecture. To obtain reference hematological and biochemical values, we performed examinations in 39 clinically healthy, mature Noma horses managed at the Imabari public ranch. Hematological and biochemical results of Noma horses were close to the normal ranges of horses in the U.S.A. The erythrocyte parameters and hepatobiliary enzyme levels in Noma and Kiso horses were lower than those in Japanese racehorses. Noma horses showed higher erythrocyte parameters and triglyceride concentrations and a lower creatinine concentration compared with those in Kiso horses. These data represent the first report of reference values for Noma horses and may be useful to improve their management.
能马是一种来自爱媛县今治市能马地区的日本马种。为了获取参考血液学和生化值，我们对今治公共牧场饲养的39匹临床健康的成年能马进行了检测。能马的血液学和生化结果接近美国马匹的正常范围。能马和木曾马的红细胞参数及肝胆酶水平低于日本赛马。与木曾马相比，能马的红细胞参数和甘油三酯浓度更高，肌酐浓度更低。这些数据是关于能马参考值的首次报告，可能有助于改善对它们的管理。
