Color Doppler Score: A New Approach for Monitoring a Large Placental Chorioangioma
We employed color Doppler score as an innovative approach for the prenatal diagnosis and monitoring of a large placental chorioangioma case diagnosed at 26 weeks and the subjective semiquantitative assessment of the vascularization.

The NR2F2-HAND2 signaling axis regulates progesterone actions in the uterus at early pregnancy
Endometrial function is dependent on a tight crosstalk between the epithelial and stromal cells of the endometrium. This communication is critical to ensure a fertile uterus and relies on progesterone and estrogen signaling to prepare a receptive uterus ...

Effects of diabetes between generations on the pre-embryos of rats
Pregestational hyperglycemia cause adverse effects on mothers and their offspring. We aimed to evaluate the maternal hyperglycemia influence on pre-embryos from diabetic rats and on their generations (daughters and granddaughters).

Preimplantation Stress and Development [PDF]
The developmental origins of health and disease hypothesis holds that inappropriate environmental cues in utero, a period marked by tremendous developmental sensitivity, facilitate cellular reprogramming to ultimately predispose disease in adulthood. In this review, we analyze if stress during early stages of development can affect future health.

Which Stage of Mouse Embryos Is More Appropriate for Vitrification? [PDF]
Background Vitrification has been shown as one of the most effective methods of cryopreservation for mammalian embryos. However, there is no consensus which stage of embryonic development is the most appropriate for vitrification with subsequent maximal ...
