A sperm cryopreservation protocol requiring dimethylacetamide (DMA, 6%) as a cryoprotectant was optimized via assays involving different prefreezing equilibration times (1, 10, 30, 60, and 120 min at 5°C) freezing rates achieved by the following: 1) using nitrogen vapor to reduce temperature from 5°C −85°C 10°C/min (slow rate); 2) biological freezer unit in 2-step method −35°C 7°C/min then −140°C 60°C/min (medium or 3) 1-step −180°C (rapid rate).

Better knowledge on the disturbed mechanisms implicated in materno-fetal long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LC-PUFA) transfer pregnancies with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) may have potentially high implications for later effective LC-PUFA supplementation. We studied vivo placental of acids (FA) using stable isotope tracers administrated to 11 control and 9 GDM pregnant women (6 treated insulin). Subjects received orally [(13)C]palmitic, [(13)C]oleic [(13)C]linoleic acids,...
The functionality of the placenta may affect neonatal adiposity and fetal levels key nutrients such as long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. Fetal macrosomia its complications occur even in adequately controlled gestational diabetic (GDM) mothers, suggesting that maternal glycemia is not only determinant glycemic status wellbeing. We studied vivo placental transfer acids (FA) labeled with stable isotopes administered to 11 control 9 GDM pregnant women (6 treated insulin). Subjects received...
Is the length of anogenital distance (AGD), a biomarker in-utero prenatal hormonal environment, associated with presence endometriomas and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE)? Shorter AGD is DIE. It debated whether exposure to estrogens in utero may be risk factor for adulthood. environment observational studies have shown an association between reproductive parameters both sexes. This case–control study 114 women (endometriomas and/or DIE) 105 controls was conducted September 2014 May...
Is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) associated with anogenital distance (AGD), a biomarker of fetal androgen exposure, in adult Mediterranean women?Longer AGD is PCOS women.AGD prenatal milieu. Human observational studies have reported that associations between and reproductive parameters both sexes. Exposure the female fetus to intrauterine androgens may be risk factor for adulthood.This was case-control study 126 women 159 controls September 2014 May 2016.Cases were attending gynecology...
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect housing system and cold stress on heterophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, fluctuating asymmetry, tonic immobility duration chickens. In experiment 1, hens (n = 120; 36 wk old) from 5 Spanish breeds a White Leghorn population, which had been housed in pens with or without access an outdoor area 20 age, were used. ratio varied breed breed, differences between systems being significant (P < 0.05) 2 breeds. these (Red-Barred Vasca Birchen Leonesa),...
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects heat and several additives related stress on fluctuating asymmetry (groups 1 10), heterophil:lymphocyte ratio 3 8 tonic immobility duration 7 10) in White Leghorn chicks at 42 d age. Chicks group (heat) were reared with temperatures 8°C greater than those control group. Groups 2 9 consisted addition capsaicin, allicin, ascorbic acid, tryptophan, brewer's yeast, lactic corticosterone, or cholesterol diet. 10 (control) standard temperatures....
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect auditory enrichment (by means classical music) or physical hanging colored string bunches and barley grains on floor) tonic immobility duration, heterophil lymphocyte ratio, fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in chicks several layer breeds. In experiment 1, 192 from 8 Spanish breeds 1 White Leghorn population were reared cages with without music until wk age. significant for ratio (P < 0.05). ratios higher than those music, suggesting that reduces...
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a chronic condition with symptoms affecting many women at reproductive age and evaluating their health-related quality of Life (HRQoL) an important issue. Moreover, differences in the HRQoL between different PCOS phenotypes have never been analyzed. Therefore, aim our study was to compare -and its phenotypes- controls attending tertiary hospital.A group 117 153 were studied 2014 2016. Controls without gynecological outpatient clinic for routine...
Mode of delivery is one the issues that most concerns obstetricians. The caesarean section rate has increased progressively in recent years, exceeding limit recommended by health institutions. Obstetricians generally lack necessary technology to help them decide whether a appropriate based on antepartum and intrapartum conditions.In this study, we have tested suitability using three popular artificial intelligence algorithms, Support Vector Machines, Multilayer Perceptron and, Random Forest,...
Abstract Background. The aim of this study is to analyze how the maternal intake macronutrients before conception and in 6th, 10th, 26th, 38th weeks pregnancy affects birth weight. Methods. A longitudinal food consumption assess nutritional status 77 healthy female volunteers (age range: 24–36) who were planning immediate was performed Reus between 1992 1996. seven‐consecutive‐day dietary record used order evaluate intake. We fitted multiple linear regression models on weight adjusted for...
Introduction The female reproductive tract harbours unique microbial communities (known as microbiota) which have been associated with functions in health and disease. While endometrial microbiome studies shown that the uterus possesses higher bacterial diversity richness compared to vagina, knowledge regarding composition of Fallopian tubes (FT) is lacking, especially fertile women without any underlying conditions. Methods To address this gap, our study included 19 patients who underwent...
Prenatal folate exposure may alter epigenetic marks in the offspring. We aimed to evaluate associations between prenatal folic acid (FA) preconception and utero with cord blood DNA methylation long interspersed nuclear element 1 (LINE-1) Alu short elements (SINEs) as markers of global levels.
There is little information available on the effect of Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) treatment (diet or insulin) placental lipid carriers, which may influence fetal fat accretion. Insulin activate insulin receptors protein kinase (AKT) and extracellular signal regulated ERK mediators, might affect metabolism. Placenta was collected from 25 control women, 23 GDM-Diet 20 GDM-Insulin. Western blotting signaling mediators carriers performed. The human choricarcinoma-derived cell line BeWo...
