  2. 11. Antimicrobial resistance of the microbiota in the reproductive tract of horses in conjunction with assisted reproduction

    Author : Pongpreecha Malaluang; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Antimicrobial resistance is a global challenge exacerbated by antibiotic misuse and inadequate infection control. This study explores the effects of antibiotics in semen extenders on the vaginal bacteria of the mare and investigates the separation of spermatozoa from bacteria in seminal plasma as an alternative to adding antibiotics to semen extenders.

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; electro-acupuncture; blood flow impedance; circulation; uterine artery; in-vitro fertilization; oocyte aspiration; polycystic ovary syndrome; experimentally induced PCO; anovulation; gonadotropins; steroids; neuropeptides; b-endorphin; nerve growth factor; corticotropin-releasing factor.;

    Abstract : The use of acupuncture in the area of reproductive medicine is relatively new, and it has been rather poorly investigated in the past. When muscle afferents are stimulated by acupuncture in somatic segments related to the innervation of the ovaries and the uterus, functional changes occur in the neural substrate that may influence reproductive function and result in peripheral, segmental and central effects.

  5. 13. Cooperation and conflict during reproduction in polyterritorial wood warblers (Phylloscopus sibilatrix)

    Author : Susanne Stenius; Trond Amundsen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; zoologi; Zoology;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the reproductive strategies of male and female wood warblers are studied. Males which arrived early to the breeding grounds had higher reproductive success than later males. This was due to early males more often mating polygynously than late males. READ MORE

  6. 14. Preservation of fertility through cryopreservation and in vitro maturation of human ovarian follicles and oocytes

    Author : Julius Hreinsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Oocyte; maturation in-vitro; cryopreservation; ovarian follicles; culture; IVM; preservation of fertility;

    Abstract : One of the most rapidly expanding fields in assisted reproduction is the preservation of fertility for young women at risk of premature ovarian failure. This may be caused by cytotoxic therapy or other reasons. Cryopreservation of follicles in ovarian tissue has been successful in animal models with live young being born. READ MORE

  7. 15. Polycystic ovary syndrome : Long-term health aspects

    Author : Sofia Persson; Evangelia Elenis; Inger Sundström Poromaa; Sahruh Turkmen; Elizabeth Nedstrand; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; PCOS; Hyperandrogenism; Hirsutism; Fertility; Type 2 diabetes; Hypertension; Dyslipidaemia; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age, affecting many aspects of women’s health such as fertility, cardiovascular health and quality of life. However, less is known about later life stages, as well as the impact of hyperandrogenism and PCOS itself, apart from risks associated with excess body weight. READ MORE
