Faeces samples from 116 horses with colic and 115 non-colic cases were assayed by a centrifugation/floatation method for the presence of tapeworm eggs. Analysis of these data failed to demonstrate an association between tapeworm infection and colic of all types. The data were further analysed according to anatomical site of the lesion causing colic. The risk of ileocaecal colic was increased in the presence of tapeworms. Age, breed and sex were evaluated as possible confounding factors but had no association with the incidence of colic. This study suggests an association between tapeworms and colic of ileocaecal origin.
采用离心/漂浮法对116例患绞痛的马和115例非绞痛病例的粪便样本进行检测，以确定是否存在绦虫卵。对这些数据的分析未能证明绦虫感染与所有类型的绞痛之间存在关联。根据引起绞痛的病变解剖部位对数据进行了进一步分析。存在绦虫时，回盲部绞痛的风险增加。对年龄、品种和性别作为可能的混杂因素进行了评估，但它们与绞痛的发生率无关。这项研究表明绦虫与回盲部起源的绞痛之间存在关联。
