In vivo, the female reproductive tract imposes several physical and physiological barriers that favors only the most optimal spermatozoa reaching the fertilization site.

A CCNA1 Missense Variant Associated With Chromatid Non‐Disjunction in Abnormal‐Headed Sperm and Male Infertility

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Macrozoospermia is a rare form of teratozoospermia characterized by tetraploids, large‐headed spermatozoa with multiple flagella, usually caused by bi‐allelic AURKC mutations. The etiology of atypical phenotypes with a lower proportion of large headed spermatozoa and single flagella however often remains unresolved.

Delivery mode and maternal health conditions before and after childbirth: A population‐based cohort study from Estonia

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Cesarean section is associated with higher rates of chronic health conditions and pregnancy‐related complications, whereas vaginal delivery is more commonly linked to pelvic floor and perineal complications. These findings emphasize the need for individualized decision‐making and thorough counseling about the risks and benefits of each delivery method.

A Defense of Post‐Viability Abortion

Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is often thought that Thomson's Violinist argument is only applicable before the point of viability. In this paper, I propose that this is not the case, offering a novel defense of post‐viability abortion utilising Thomson's self‐defense framework. I first set out Thomson's Violinist argument and how it interacts with viability.
