Discussion

Cross-sectional study assesses heart scores and measurements in feedlot cattle deaths, indicating challenges in diagnosing cardiac issues postmortem.

Heart scores and postmortem cardiac measurements revealed changes in heart structure, suggesting potential diagnosis options for congestive heart failure.
Among 346 cattle examined, 30.6% were classified with cardiac enlargement or misshapen ventricle, impacting assessments of heart disease severity.
Although descriptive statistics showed significant heart width increases in cases, the CHF model struggled with convergence due to low case numbers.
Findings highlight the need for better diagnostic tools for congestive heart failure in feedlot cattle, an area of growing concern.

Long et al. (2025) studied this question.
