  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In mares with persistent postbreeding endometritis, oxytocin alone gave 16.9 times increased odds of fluid clearance compared with stall rest.

    In plain wordsIn mares, oxytocin alone made clearing fluid from the uterus much more likely than stall rest.

    Summary · context
    Twelve mares susceptible to postbreeding endometritis were enrolled in the study with a randomized cross-over design using both positive and negative controls.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Oxytocin.

  1. 02AnimalNot a test of Oxytocin aloneAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In mares with persistent postbreeding endometritis, oxytocin combined with exercise gave 8.4 times greater odds of fluid clearance compared with stall rest.

    In plain wordsIn mares, oxytocin together with exercise made clearing uterine fluid more likely than stall rest.

    Summary
    This was followed by cloprostenol that had 10.6 greater odds of fluid clearance, and finally, the treatment that combined exercise with oxytocin had 8.4 times greater odds of fluid clearance.
