Unlabelled: The aim of the study is to determine and estimate the absolute values of the distance between the symphysis pubis and the uterine fundus (S-FD) and the rate of uterine involution according to the method of delivery.

Material: 150 women included in this prospective study are divided into 3 groups of 50 women with vaginal delivery, caesarean section and re-caesarean section. The absolute values of the distance S-FD and the rate of uterine involution were determined in cm and estimated according to their parity and the gestational age. The measurement of the S-FD was daily performed from the second day till the 5th day for the vaginal deliveries and till the 7th day for the caesarean sections.

Results: The uterine involution in primiparous and premature vaginal deliveries starts from lower values of the S-FD than in the multiparous and in cases of term delivery. The rate of uterine involution in primiparous increases gradually in the earliest day after delivery (from 0.95 to 1.6 cm per day), while in multiparous this increasing starts after the 4th day. When caesarean section is performed and in the cases of preterm delivery the rates of uterine involution are delayed and uneven.

Conclusions: in cases of vaginal delivery the availability of prematurity and macrosomia of the fetus delays the rates of the uterine involution. The uterine involution after cesarean section is slower and unsteady, which is more conscious in re-sections.

This randomized controlled intervention study aims to determine the effect of an abdominal binder on pain, bleeding, and breastfeeding success after cesarean delivery. The study was conducted with women who underwent cesarean section and were followed-up for the first 48 hours at the obstetrics clinic of a state hospital in Türkiye between September 2020-March 2021. The study was completed with a total of 128 women who met the inclusion criteria (Intervention (IG):64, Control (CG):64).

Key Lab of Agricultural Animal Genetics, Breeding and Reproduction of Ministry of Education, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China. Electronic address:

Accurate identification of cows' likelihood of conception during the period from recent calving to the first artificial insemination (AI) will provide assistance in managing the fertility of dairy cows and contribute to the economic prosperity and sustainability of the farm. The purpose of this study was to use FTIR spectroscopy collected from recent calving to the first artificial insemination (AI) to predict the cow's likelihood of conception to first AI, first or second AI. This study specifically focused on the role of FTIR spectral and farm data collected at different time windows in improving the accuracy of model for predicting the cow's likelihood of conception to first AI, first or second AI.

A delayed recovery of the reproductive tract from natural inflammatory processes associated with postpartum involution will compromise further reproductive function. Following a literature review, we selected serum amyloid A (SAA) and α1-acid glycoprotein (α1-AGP) to assess as potential circulating markers of acute uterine inflammation, as concentrations of these 2 acute phase proteins were reported to be elevated early postpartum in dairy cows with active uterine infection. Convenience serum samples from an induced model of uterine infection were used to measure concentrations of these markers.
