Optimization of post-cervical artificial insemination in gilts: Effect of cervical relaxation procedures and catheter type.

Theriogenology
Post-cervical (pC) artificial insemination (AI) has been successfully developed for application in multiparous sows, although it has proved problematic in gilts. This study analyzes the use of pC-AI in gilts by two experiments. In the first experimen...

Progesterone supplementation in the early luteal phase after artificial insemination improves conception rates in high-producing dairy cows.

Theriogenology
This study examines the possible effects on the reproductive performance of high-producing dairy cows of progesterone (P4) given in the early luteal phase (1.55 g of P4), from Days 3 to 5 post-artificial insemination (AI) as compared with the time of...

Salvage robot assisted radical prostatectomy: A propensity matched study of perioperative, oncological and functional outcomes.

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
BACKGROUND: To report the perioperative, functional and oncological outcomes of salvage robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (s-RARP) in a propensity score-matched analysis.

Effect of uterine size on fertility of lactating dairy cows.

Theriogenology
There are multiple reasons for reduced fertility in lactating dairy cows. We hypothesized that one cause of reduced fertility could be the overall size of the reproductive tract, particularly the uterus, given well-established uterine functions in ma...

Minimization of curative surgery for treatment of early cervical cancer: a review.

Japanese journal of clinical oncology
Surgery is effective and useful for curative treatment of patients with early invasive cervical cancer, yet minimization of surgical procedures provides many additional advantages for patients. Because the mean age of patients diagnosed with cervical...

Designing of an artificial neural network model to evaluate the association of three combined Y-specific microsatellite loci on the actual and predicted postthaw motility in crossbred bull semen.

Theriogenology
The freezing of bull semen significantly hamper the motility of sperm which reduces the conception rate in dairy cattle. The prediction of postthaw motility (PTM) before freezing will be useful to take the decision on discarding or freezing of the ge...

Divergence in the sow vaginal microbiota is associated with fertility.

Reproduction (Cambridge, England)
IN BRIEF: Vaginal microbiota composition influences female fertility, however it has not been studied for measuring fertility level in female pigs. This study reveals significant vaginal microbiota composition differences between high reproductive pe...

ChatGPT: a reliable fertility decision-making tool?

Human reproduction (Oxford, England)
The internet is the primary source of infertility-related information for most people who are experiencing fertility issues. Although no longer shrouded in stigma, the privacy of interacting only with a computer provides a sense of safety when engagi...

DEVELOPMENT OF A ROBOT FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF RADIOACTIVE CONTAMINATION AND FERTILITY OF THE SOIL IN FARMLAND.

Radiation protection dosimetry
A tractor-based robot with the capability of real-time assessing and visualizing the radioactive material density and fertility distribution of farmlands has been developed to accelerate the recovery process of the farmlands suffered by the accident ...

Seasonal variation in heat shock proteins (hsp70 and hsp90) and their association with frozen semen quality and fertility in buffaloes.

Cryo letters
BACKGROUND: Heat shock protein is considered as a potential indicator of animal adaptation to harsh environmental stresses and its expression has been correlated with resistance to stress.
