Journal ArticleDOI
Materno-fetal immunotolerance: an evolutionary view
TL;DR: The evidence shown reveals that non-mammalian vertebrates with different reproductive strategies represent a good model to understand biological mechanisms allowing fetal acceptance and growth in the maternal tissues.
Journal Article
A SURVEY OF β-HCG IN CERVICOVAGINAL SECRETIONS AS A PREDICTOR OF PRETERM DELIVERY
TL;DR: The cut-off group 2 and 3 are reported, which showed the βhCG level could be used as a useful parameter for preterm delivery prediction, and there was a considerable difference in the value of human chorionic gonadotropin among three pregnant groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
The normal and abnormal breast
TL;DR: Here's a helpful review of what goes right and what can go wrong in the female and male breast, with emphasis on dermatologic and developmental disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does the histological structure of spermoviduct and free oviduct correspond with the reproductive mode in Clausiliids (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Baleinae)?
TL;DR: Both morphology and secretory activity of epithelial cells are very similar in viviparous and ovipar Mous forms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comprehensive Review on Current Controversies and Debate in Prostate Artery Embolization
Drew Maclean,Charles Timothy Francis Bryant,Ganesh Vigneswaran,Timothy Bryant,Mark Harris,Bhaskar K. Somani,Sachin Modi +6 more
TL;DR: Questions over the duration of symptom response, cost-effectiveness, mechanism of action, patient selection, and other procedural technical issues are the most pressing faced by proponents of prostate artery embolization, and it is sought to highlight why their resolution is important to ensure men with benign prostate hyperplasia seeking a minimally invasive solution are optimally informed and most effectively managed.

Seasonal breeding:nature's contraceptive.
G A Lincoln,Roger V. Short +1 more
TL;DR: The seasonal cycle highlights the seasonal changes in daylight length, rutting behavior, testicular diameter, sexual skin flush, and concentrations of plasma follicle-stimulating hormone, prolactin, and testosterone in a group of rams throughout the year.
Journal ArticleDOI
The physiological responses of anovulatory ewes to the introduction of rams: a review.
TL;DR: Ewes of many breeds can be stimulated to ovulate by the reintroduction of rams and appear to be effected both through a delay in the onset of the LH surge and through a direct action of progesterone on the ovary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors affecting the secretion of luteinizing hormone in the ewe.
TL;DR: LH is secreted as discrete pulses throughout all stages of the reproductive cycle of the ewe, including pre‐pubertal, seasonal and lactational anoestrus, and the luteal and follicular phases of the oestrous cycle.
Nutritional influences on reproduction in mature male sheep and goats
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that nutritional signals exert powerful effects on the reproductive system of mature male ruminants, and the responses are partly independent of changes in gonadotrophin secretion.
