The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of vitrification on the DNA fragmentation rate of equine cumulus cells and to assess its relationship to oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) after vitrification. Cumulus cells (CC) from 14 mares were recovered from COCs, previously submitted to vitrification (VIT) and IVM. The DNA fragmentation rate of the cumulus cells (CC-DF) was assessed using a chromatin dispersion test.

- - The study investigated the effects of re-extending frozen-thawed donkey semen in two different mediums—seminal plasma (SP) and INRA96—on semen quality post-thaw and pregnancy rates in jennies.
- - Semen was collected from two fertile Amiata donkey stallions, frozen with specific preservatives, and seminal plasma was stored for later use.
- - Results showed higher pregnancy rates when jennies were inseminated with sperm re-extended in SP, indicating potential benefits of using autologous seminal plasma for improving success rates in artificial insemination.
Objective: Post-COVID syndrome can impact against every sphere of daily live. The objective of this work was to detect the factors correlated with a better or worse physical recovery four months after hospital discharge from a hospitalization in ICU due to COVID-19.
Methods: Prospective descriptive study of 125 patients valued by the Rehabilitation Service during hospitalization in ICU, from March 12 to December 31, 2020.
