Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

The Effect of Cholesterol‐Loaded Cyclodextrin and Resveratrol Compounds on Post‐Thawing Quality of Ram Semen

Veterinary Medicine and Science
Ram sperm are more vulnerable to freezing than those of most other farm animals. During sperm freezing, the cell membrane loses some of its cholesterol, which regulates signalling mechanisms and prevents premature capacitation.

A Spatial Clustering Approach of Economic Activities: An Application to the Agribusiness Sector in Brazil's Midwest Region

Geographical Analysis, Volume 58, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The spatial distribution of economic activities is central to regional economics. However, empirical tools for comparing industries based on the similarity of their spatial distributions remain limited. Traditional cluster analysis typically ignores geographical distance and connectivity, while spatial methods focus on clustering places rather

Effects of Prenatal Ursodeoxycholic Acid and Probiotic Supplementation on Stress Parameters, Immune Response and Lamb Survival Rates in Ewes

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Prenatal ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and probiotic supplementation, administered alone or combined, modulate colostrum quality and neonatal immunity in ewes. Combined UDCA + PRO most consistently increases colostral IgG, enhances neonatal IgG levels, and improves lamb survival.

Silver and Copper Nanoparticles as Non‐Antibiotic Therapy for Postpartum Endometritis in Dairy Cows

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Postpartum dairy cows with clinical endometritis (purulent or mucopurulent vaginal discharge and >10% polymorphonuclear neutrophils [PMNs]) received intrauterine copper–silver nanoparticles, PGF2α, or no treatment. Clinical and cytological responses were assessed 14 days later to evaluate the efficacy of copper–silver nanoparticles as a non‐antibiotic ...

Dose‐Dependent Effects of Clinoptilolite Supplementation on Sperm Quality and Oxidative Stress During Canine Semen Cryopreservation

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Clinoptilolite supplementation in canine semen extenders showed dose‐dependent effects during cryopreservation, with 2% yielding optimal post‐thaw sperm quality. Higher concentrations impaired sperm parameters, likely due to oxidative imbalance, highlighting the importance of precise dosing to enhance cryosurvival.
