Delaying Motherhood—An Increasingly Common but Risky Trend in High‐Income Countries
ABSTRACT Objectives Maternal age at first birth is increasing in most high‐income countries. The associations between advanced maternal age and perinatal complications, as well as newborn parameters, were analyzed using a dataset of 6831 singleton births among first‐time mothers taking place in Vienna, Austria, between 2010 and 2019.

EHV‐1 is one of the most prevalent viral pathogens in horses; however, its prevalence is not well defined by cross‐reactions of serological tests. Thus, this study aims to determine EHV‐1/‐4 prevalence in Colombian creole horses from Ibagué, Tolima, using molecular techniques, as well as to determine possible risk factors associated with viral ...

Through cross‐species comparison, this study reveals the presence of a dual‐featured type of immune‐featured trophoblast (iTrophoblast) in invasive placentas, which regulates trophoblast invasion during placentation. Immature iTrophoblasts gradually transform into functional maturity with development, and their transformation disorder leads to the ...

Milk fatty acids benefit human health and are directly related to milk quality. However, there is difficulty in collecting data for prediction based on milk mid‐infrared spectra. Noisy and redundant wavenumbers in mid‐infrared spectra usually lead to low robustness and interpretability of the prediction models, especially in small spectra data ...

Evidence‐based practice in canine artificial insemination
A number of methods are currently used to predict the optimal date of insemination of the breeding bitch, particularly with the use of frozen–thawed canine semen which has a far shorter lifespan than fresh semen. Aside from confirming cytological oestrus, vaginal cytology is of no assistance in predicting the most fertile day(s) in a bitch; however, a ...

Proteomics is advancing the understanding of stallion sperm biology
Abstract The mammalian ejaculate is very well suited to proteomics studies. As such, research concerning sperm proteomics is offering a huge amount of new information on the biology of spermatozoa. Among domestic animals, horses represent a species of special interest, in which reproductive technologies and a sizeable market of genetic material have ...

Abstract Bovine familial convulsions and ataxia (BFCA) is considered an autosomal dominant syndrome with incomplete penetrance. Nine Angus calves from the same herd were diagnosed with BFCA within days of birth. Necropsy revealed cerebellar and spinal cord lesions associated with the condition. Parentage testing confirmed that all affected calves had a

Abstract Background Phospholipase C zeta (PLCZ1) is considered the major sperm‐borne oocyte activation factor. Cryopreserved stallion spermatozoa are commonly used for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). However, plasma membrane damage and protein modifications caused by cryopreservation could impair sperm structure and function, leading to a ...
