Journal Article
De Mestre, A. M., Rose, V. B., Chang, Y. M., Wathes, D. C., & Verheyen, K. L. P. (2019). Multivariable analysis to determine risk factors associated with early pregnancy loss in thoroughbred broodmares. Theriogenology, 124, 18-23. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.theriogenology.2018.10.008

Early pregnancy loss (EPL) between days 15–65 after breeding has been shown to occur in 7.9% of equine pregnancies with substantial economical, welfare and safety implications. Whilst maternal age has been recognised as an important risk factor in re...
