    Snippet: In combination, these findings indicate that FFP transfusion evokes a balanced (pro/anti-inflammatory), systemic immune response in healthy foals. The presence of inflammation in some control foals implies a dualistic immunogenic mechanism. Serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) assessment in neonatal foals is considered standard of care in equine hospitals to determine immunity and overall health. However, cut-off values of IgG to predict complete or part.....
    Document: In combination, these findings indicate that FFP transfusion evokes a balanced (pro/anti-inflammatory), systemic immune response in healthy foals. The presence of inflammation in some control foals implies a dualistic immunogenic mechanism. Serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) assessment in neonatal foals is considered standard of care in equine hospitals to determine immunity and overall health. However, cut-off values of IgG to predict complete or partial failure of transfer of passive immunity (FTPI) were developed 30 years ago, are largely empiric, with little prospective or statistical data to support their use or association with outcome.
