An estimated one in four women experiences a pregnancy loss during her lifetime. Despite the pervasiveness of fetal mortality reflected by these numbers, social workers rarely initiate dialogues regarding reproductive loss history. Reproductive loss experiences are interwoven with typical themes emerging in everyday social work practice, including mental health, self-conceptualization, social roles, and future parenting. To advance the knowledge of professional social workers regarding reproductive loss in women's lives, this article begins by synthesizing theory and empirical research related to reproductive loss and subsequent parenting. Then, four worker-initiated dialogues emerge as recommendations for integration into routine social work practice, expanding discussion of reproductive loss beyond a subset of specialized providers and into the multitude of practice settings.

Spermatogenesis is finely regulated by histone methylation, which is crucial for regulating gene expression and chromatin remodeling. Functional studies have demonstrated that the histone lysine methyltransferases (KMTs) SETD1B, CFP1, SETDB1, G9A, and SETD2 play pivotal roles in spermatogenesis through establishing the key histone methylation marks, H3K4me3, H3K9me2, H3K9me3, and H3K36me3, respectively. This study aimed to evaluate the spatiotemporal expression of these KMTs and methylation marks as well as senescence-associated β-galactosidase (β-GAL), transcriptional activity, and apoptosis rates in mouse testes during biological aging.

Floral organ development, pollen germination and pollen tube growth are crucial for plant sexual reproduction. Phytohormones maintain these processes by regulating the expression and activity of various transcription factors. ICE1, a MYC-like bHLH transcription factor, has been revealed to be involved in cold acclimatisation of Arabidopsis.

Purpose: Dyslipidemia has been linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes in observational studies. This study aimed to explore how variations in lipid levels during the first trimester might influence early pregnancy loss (EPL).
Methods: Blood samples from pregnant women were analyzed to examine the relationship between EPL and lipid metabolism using logistic regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS).

This study compared the reproductive performance of three different programs using conventional fixed-time artificial insemination (FTAI), fixed-time embryo transfer (FTET), and their combined use, considering estrus intensity as a criterion for the reproductive program. Brangus multiparous cows (n = 1.100), 40-50 days postpartum, 4-8 years old, and body condition scores 2.
