From: Salivary cortisol and eye temperature changes during endurance competitions
Variations of SC (Salivary Cortisol) and IRTET (Eye Temperature measured by Infrared Thermography) of all horses (ALL), 40 km and 80 km categories, from and in-between Home, Preinspection and covered distances at each Vet Gate. The variations represented between Home and Preinspection represent the sample of horses collected both at home and at the pre-inspection. The variations between Pre-Inspection and covered Km represent the same sample of horses collected at the respective covered distances, thus eliminated horses or horses that failed a collection were not compared. Significant variations among coincident points-in-time and/or covered distance of all horses (ALL), 40 km, 80 km, 80 km-A and 80 km-B categories are in bold signalised by * (p < 0,05)
