Results of multivariable conditional logistic regression analysis of variables associated with exertional rhabdomyolysis syndrome in Swedish Standardbred trotters.
<p>Models were derived using a stepwise forward selection approach with variables retained in the model if they were significantly associated with ERS (P<sub>Wald</sub> <0.05) and/or improved model fit (P<sub>LRS</sub> <0.05). Pwald =  Wald test P-value; P<sub>LRS</sub>  =  Likelihood Ratio Statistic P-value.</p
Management regimes used for prevention of ERS reported by 22 Standardbred trainers in Sweden with one or more horses with ERS in training from March 2006- February 2007.

Descriptive statistics of continuous horse-level and performance variables for Swedish Standardbred trotters with (cases) and without (controls) exertional rhabdomyolysis syndrome.
<p>sd  =  standard deviation; iqr  =  inter-quartile range.</p
Pre- and post exercise muscle enzyme activites.
<p>Graph illustrating the pre and post exercise (a) CK activity and (b) AST activity for each GYS1 genotype (n = 4) (HH = homozygotes, HR = heterozygote, RR = control).</p
Signalment of all horses participating in each section of the study, showing no significant differences between matched groups.

Muscle fibre type distributions.
<p>Boxplots illustrating the muscle fibre type composition of horses homozygous (HH) (n = 4), heterozygous (HR) (n = 8) and control horses (RR) (n = 6). * Denotes significant differences between individual groups (p<0.05) following post- hoc analysis.</p
Resting muscle enzyme activities.
<p>Box plots illustrating the resting (a) CK activity and (b) AST activity for each GYS1 genotype (n = 8) (HH = homozygotes, HR = heterozygote, RR = control) * Denotes significant differences between individual groups (p<0.05) following post- hoc analysis.</p
