Pregnancy Outcome with Intrauterine Insemination in Patients with Unexplained Recurrent Abortion Whose Partners Have Abnormal Hypo-Osmotic Swelling Test [PDF]
Background: Recurrent abortion is defined as three or moreconsecutive pregnancy losses. We aimed to determine the relationshipbetween male sperm parameters and hypo-osmoticswelling score and recurrent abortion.

Reproductive Curation: Assisted Reproductive Technologies ( ARTs ) and Lesbian Motherhood‐Making
ABSTRACT Objective This paper introduces reproductive curation, the deliberate coordination of reproductive arrangements, as a theoretical framework for examining how legal, institutional, and interpersonal factors interact with technology in shaping reproductive decision‐making, based on interviews with 32 lesbian mothers and mothers‐to‐be in China ...

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

Abstract Background Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) infection remains a major problem for Japanese Black (Wagyu) cattle, and effective and sustainable control measures are essential to prevent its spread in breeding herds. This study aimed to monitor the BLV infection status of all cattle at a Japanese Black breeding farm in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan ...

Abstract Objective To identify the long‐term child outcomes after prenatal aspirin exposure. Methods This study is a follow‐up of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluating low‐dose aspirin in the prevention of recurrent spontaneous preterm labor (the APRIL study) comparing aspirin 80 mg daily (n = 194) to placebo (n = 193) in singletons.

The expansion of the New Zealand dairy industry has increased the number of lower‐value surplus calves. A value‐add mitigation strategy is integrating them into the beef market. This study investigated the genetic association between growth traits recorded in the Beef + Lamb New Zealand's Dairy‐Beef and the Beef Progeny Test to estimate the genetic ...

The Heterogeneous Impact of Children on Maternal Employment: Evidence From East and West Germany
ABSTRACT This study investigates the causal effect of fertility on female labour market outcomes in East and West Germany. We use twin births as an exogenous variation for family size. Our results suggest a negative relationship between the number of children and maternal labour market outcomes.

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.

Environmental stress influences reproductive success in male spider mites
This experiment explores how male juvenile food stress impacts reproductive traits in the haplodiploid spider mite Tetranychus urticae. Males exposed to juvenile food stress had lower reproductive success and females mated to these males also suffered reduced fitness as they were not able to produce optimal offspring sex ratios. The negative effects of

Meta‐GWAS of Pig Semen Quality Traits Reveals Conserved Genes Regulating Mammalian Fertility
This study incorporated 14 210 individuals to perform a GWAS meta‐analysis of six semen quality traits. The GWAS meta‐analysis identifies 234 GWAS loci associated with semen quality traits. The incorporation with a functional genomics resource explains potential genetic regulation of ∼40% GWAS signals underlying semen quality traits.
