This is a rare and curious fact in the veterinary literature, as it allows us to analyze how two groups of independent researchers approached the same problem. This short review aims to carry out a qualitative comparative analysis of these two articles to identify the perception of two different research groups about the effectiveness of ACTH as a diagnostic tool for PPID in horses.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Applied Veterinary Research}, author={Souza, Anderson Fernando de and De Zoppa, André Luis do Valle}, year={2022}, month={Apr.}, pages={2022008} }
