Although research in this field clearly shows that incorrect nutritional practices may lead to severe pathologies, inappropriate feeding plans often continue to be used. A clinical nutrition counselling (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CNC<\/jats:styled-content>) service could thus be of great use to both horse owners and veterinarians. The aim of this study was to provide information on equine patients referred to the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CNC<\/jats:styled-content>service of the University of Turin and to provide standard dietary protocols as used in our Veterinary Teaching Hospital for the most common nutrition\u2010related pathologies. The data were obtained by retrospective analysis of the nutritional records of referred equine patients. The data collected included information about anamnesis, nutritional assessment, current diet, referring person and follow\u2010up of each patient. Sixty\u2010one horses were included in the study. The majority were adult males. The most common breeds were the Italian Saddle Horse and the Friesian Horse. Old horses (&gt;19\u00a0years) had a statistically lower<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">BCS<\/jats:styled-content>than brood mares or other adult horses (p\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.01). The most common nutritional pathologies were chronic weight loss (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CWL<\/jats:styled-content>), chronic diarrhoea (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CD<\/jats:styled-content>) and equine gastric ulcer syndrome. All horses received first\u2010cut meadow hay; 85% also ate concentrates. Young horses (&lt;2\u00a0years) received more hay as a percentage of body weight (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">BW<\/jats:styled-content>) than old horses or adults. The hay percentage of<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">BW<\/jats:styled-content>per day given to animals with<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CWL<\/jats:styled-content>was statistically higher than those with<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CD<\/jats:styled-content>(p\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.01). The concentrate percentage of<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">BW<\/jats:styled-content>given to old horses was statistically lower compared to that given to young horses (p\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.05). The concentrate percentage of<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">BW<\/jats:styled-content>per day given to horses with colic was statistically higher than that given to horses with<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CD<\/jats:styled-content>(p\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.05). 28% of cases were referred by the owner and 72% by a veterinarian. Follow\u2010up evaluation was deemed to be \u2018good\u2019 in 92% cases and \u2018poor\u2019 in 8%. In summary, the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CNC<\/jats:styled-content>service could provide an epidemiological observatory to study the prevalence of nutritional issues in the equine population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jpn.12658","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,19]],"date-time":"2017-06-19T08:45:11Z","timestamp":1497861911000},"page":"59-68","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Clinical nutrition counselling service in the veterinary hospital: retrospective analysis of equine patients and nutritional considerations"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"101","author":[{"given":"D.","family":"Vergnano","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Struttura Didattica Speciale Veterinaria Department of Veterinary Science University of Turin Grugliasco Torino Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D.","family":"Bergero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Struttura Didattica Speciale Veterinaria Department of Veterinary Science University of Turin Grugliasco Torino Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E.","family":"Valle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Struttura Didattica Speciale Veterinaria Department of Veterinary Science University of Turin Grugliasco Torino Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12550-016-0253-y"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/ajvr.67.11.1873"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/evj.12434"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_1","first-page":"E1","article-title":"Managing obesity in pasture\u2010based horses","volume":"34","author":"Becvarova I.","year":"2012","journal-title":"Compendium: Continuing Education for Veterinarians"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cveq.2009.01.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_1","unstructured":"Becvarova I.;Chandler M.;Prochazka D.;Meyer H. 2015:Nutrition education in European veterinary schools: Are European veterinary graduates competent in nutrition?Proceeding of the 19th ESVCN Congress 2015.
