The Australian Hydromyine Rodents—Their Interspecific Diversity and Reproductive Biology: A Review

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
There are two major groups, the Rattus species and the Hydromyini, in Australia. Clearly, the hydromyine rodents, unlike the Rattus genus, exhibit a diverse array of reproductive biological traits in both males and females, the full evolutionary significance of which has yet to be ascertained.

Beyond abstinence: Redefining success in cannabis use disorder treatment

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Over two decades of pharmacotherapy research has yet to yield a consistently effective medication for cannabis use disorder (CUD), in part because clinical trials have frequently prioritized abstinence as a primary or key endpoint.

Effects of Exogenous Supplementation of Progesterone on Conception Rates in Lactating Murrah Buffaloes

Veterinary Sciences
The objective of this study was to deduce the effect of exogenous supplementation of progesterone as an intramuscular injection at the time of artificial insemination (AI) on time of ovulation and conception rate in lactating Murrah buffaloes. A total of

Improving ARTs: Microfluidics as a Tool for Sperm Selection

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sperm selection is a critical step in assisted reproductive technology (ART), as sperm quality directly influences embryo quality. In vivo, the female reproductive tract imposes several physical and physiological barriers that favors only the most optimal spermatozoa reaching the fertilization site.

Lactate‐Responsive Glycogen Dynamics Are Associated With Bull Sperm Motility and Fertilization Under Glucose‐Limited Conditions

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mammalian sperm need to undergo hyperactivation, capacitation, and acrosome reaction to achieve fertilization competence. However, the female reproductive tract presents contrasting metabolic environments. The uterus is glucose‐rich, and the oviduct is lactate‐rich and glucose‐limited.

Pregnancy Outcomes of Intrauterine Insemination Using Microfluidics ZyMot Device for Patients With High Sperm DNA Fragmentation: An Exploratory Retrospective Study

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background High sperm DNA fragmentation affects male fertility and negatively correlates with sperm survival and pregnancy rates. The use of microfluidic devices allows more rigorous sperm selection, avoiding the centrifugation which is detrimental to DNA integrity.

Luteolysis, onset of estrus, and ovulation in Holstein heifers given prostaglandin F2alpha concurrent with, or 24 hours prior to, removal of an intravaginal, progesterone-releasing device

, 2004
The objective was to determine the effects of giving prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF) concurrent with, or 24 h before, removal of an intravaginal, progesterone-releasing (controlled internal drug release [CIDR]) device, on luteolysis, the synchrony of estrus ...

Basal body temperature as a biomarker of reproductive state in ewes: A multi‐method comparison

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
This study quantified body temperature dynamics throughout reproductive stages in crossbred ewes based on complementary monitoring techniques. Five ewes from a semi‐extensive farming system were included in two sub‐trials: animals were first assessed in the prepubertal stage and, subsequently, an oestrous cycle was induced by intravaginal progesterone ...

“A Total Paradigm Shift”: Interviews With Australian Maternity Care Providers Who Practice Weight‐Inclusive Care

Birth, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Weight stigma is pervasive in maternity care, contributing to negative health outcomes and disengagement among larger‐bodied women. To reduce weight stigma and promote respectful, individualized care, a weight‐inclusive approach prioritizes overall well‐being rather than focusing on weight as a key health indicator.
