Prediction of implantation after blastocyst transfer in in vitro fertilization: a machine-learning perspective.

Fertility and sterility
OBJECTIVE: To develop a random forest model (RFM) to predict implantation potential of a transferred embryo and compare it with a multivariate logistic regression model (MvLRM), based on data from a large cohort including in vitro fertilization (IVF)...

Artificial Neural Network to Predict Varicocele Impact on Male Fertility through Testicular Endocannabinoid Gene Expression Profiles.

BioMed research international
The relationship between varicocele and fertility has always been a matter of debate because of the absence of predictive clinical indicators or molecular markers able to define the severity of this disease. Even though accumulated evidence demonstra...

Effect of Using Two Cryopreservation Methods on Viability and Fertility of Frozen Stallion Sperm.

Journal of equine veterinary science
Studies involving different methods and techniques of cryopreservation and its interactions with the conception rates in artificial insemination (AI) programs are reported in the literature. This study evaluated the sperm kinetics, plasma membrane in...

PrESOgenesis: A two-layer multi-label predictor for identifying fertility-related proteins using support vector machine and pseudo amino acid composition approach.

Scientific reports
Successful spermatogenesis and oogenesis are the two genetically independent processes preceding embryo development. To date, several fertility-related proteins have been described in mammalian species. Nevertheless, further studies are required to d...

Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH), antral follicle count (AFC), external morphometrics and fertility in Tabapuã cows.

Animal reproduction science
The intense selection of characteristics related to animal performance may affect the reproductive efficiency of beef cows negatively. Selection for fertility along with production traits is, therefore, readily justifiable. The objective of the prese...

Pregnancy rate in water buffalo following fixed-time artificial insemination using new or used intravaginal devices with two progesterone concentrations.

Tropical animal health and production
This study evaluated the pregnancy rate (PR) after timed artificial insemination (TAI) in water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) during both non-breeding and breeding season, using either a new or reused intravaginal device (IVD) with two different progeste...

Somatic cell count and type of intramammary infection impacts fertility from in vitro produced embryo transfer.

Theriogenology
The objective of this study was to assess the impact of mastitis-causing bacteria and somatic cell count (SCC) on pregnancy per embryo transfer (P/ET) in Holstein-Gir crossbred (Girolando) lactating dairy cows. Cows (n = 1397) were subjected to a tim...

Fertility of lactating dairy cows treated with gonadotropin-releasing hormone at AI, 5 days after AI, or both, during summer heat stress.

Theriogenology
Objectives of this experiment were to evaluate pregnancy per AI (P/AI) and progesterone (P4) concentrations after AI of lactating dairy cows under heat stress conditions treated with 100 μg gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) at AI, 5 d after AI, o...

Caloric restriction and IGF-I administration promote rabbit fecundity: Possible interrelationships and mechanisms of action.

Theriogenology
The aim of these in vivo and in vitro studies was to examine the influence of caloric restriction (CR), and the administration of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I), on rabbit fecundity and to understand the interrelationships between CR and IGF-I, a...
