Phthalates are synthetic chemical compounds found in consumer products and known endocrine-disrupting chemicals. However, it is not well known if prenatal exposure to phthalate mixtures can affect reproductive health in female offspring. Thus, this study tested the hypothesis that prenatal exposure to an environmentally relevant phthalate mixture disrupts long-term ovarian function in adult F1 mice.

Antepartum hemorrhage complicates 3-5% of pregnancies and is a primary cause of perinatal and maternal mortality worldwide. One in five of all preterm babies are born in association with antepartum hemorrhage.

Objectives: Acute respiratory tract infections (ARIs) often occur in early childhood and are mostly self-limited. However, they impose a high socioeconomic burden and can be associated with chronic diseases later in life. To date, data on self-reported ARIs beyond infancy are limited.

Background: Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a major threat to swine industry worldwide, especially virulent variants arising during the last years, such as Spanish PRRSV-1 Rosalia strain. The role of the nasal microbiota in respiratory viral infections is still to be unveiled but may be promisingly related with the health status of the animals and thus, their susceptibility. The goal of this project was to study the nasal microbiota composition of piglets during a highly virulent PRRSV-1 outbreak comparing animals that died due to the infection with animals that survived it.

Importance: Infertility affects around 180 million people in the world and can be influenced by a number of nutritional factors.
Objective: The idea of a pretreatment optimization including beneficial weight loss, adequate physical activity, and good lifestyle habits could enhance fertility for many couples who want to conceive a baby.
Results: There are different aspects related to nutrition, such as obesity (affecting 23%-30% of reproductive-aged women), dietary patterns (type of diet, good or bad habits, and physical activity), nutrients (vitamins or minerals), hormones (adipokines, among others), and endocrine-disrupting chemicals (phytoestrogens and bisphenol A, among others) that have a clear impact on women's fertility.
