background: careful evaluation of patients and proper treatment with right techniques are essential for successful outcome of assisted reproduction. to obtain satisfactory results, it is necessary to assess ovarian reserve before planning treatment. objective: to evaluate anti-mullerian hormone as a predictor of fertility potential in terms of ovarian reserve and ovarian response reflected by a...

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations can provide a detailed view of molecule behaviour at an atomic level, which be useful when attempting to interpret experiments or design new systems. The decapeptide gonadotrophin-releasing hormone I (GnRH-I) is known control fertility in mammals for both sexes. It was previously shown that inoculation with silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) coated GnRH-I makes eff...

Introduction: Autoimmune thyroid diseases are common findings in women of childbearing age that could affect fertility rate, pregnancy outcome and complications after pregnancy. These also correlated with other autoimmune diseases. Objectives: In this study, we aim to evaluate the disease aged 35 45 years based on Azar cohort study data. Patients Methods: cross-sectional analytical 507 35-45 ol...

These effects occur in cows with mild and moderate mastitis as well as those with severe mastitis; in cows with Gram negative pathogens (e.g. E. coli) and Gram positive ones (e.g. Staph. aureus); in cows which get mastitis before breeding and in cows which get mastitis afterwards. In fact for the last comparison, some studies have shown that cows which get mastitis after they have been bred for...

BACKGROUND LiST is implemented in Spectrum, a modular computer program designed to examine the impact of interventions on health outcomes. A typical LiST application uses three other modules in Spectrum addressing demography, family planning and HIV/AIDS. METHODS The demographic module projects the population by single age and sex over time and uses LiST calculations of the mortality rates by...

Anti-fertility effect of ethanol extract of whole plant extract of Polygala javana was observed in male albino rats. The relative weight of the testes and epididymis were decreased. The epididymal sperm count, motility and sperm abnormality were reduced significantly in treated rats. There was an increase in serum urea, creatinine and the activity of liver marker enzymes (SGOT, SGPT and ALP) le...

High-producing dairy cows are subfertile; however, the mechanisms responsible for the decreased fertility are unknown. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that culled dairy cows (4-8 years old) characterised by 'Lo' ovaries (i.e. those with <10 mid-antral follicles) are affected by premature ovarian senescence. Cows in which both ovaries were 'Lo' ovaries represented 5% of t...
