Clinical findings of candidate stallions presented for licensing at all German Warmblood horse-breeding associations in 2018-2020.
Equine Vet J
January 2025
Clinic for Horses, University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover, Hannover, Germany.
Background: There is very little information available about the health status of young stallions from the German Warmblood population that will, once licensed, shape the future of equestrian sport and horse breeding.
Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence of clinical findings at licensing examinations of candidate stallions and the influences of season of birth, age at licensing, year of licensing, and the evaluator on the distribution of recorded findings.
Study Design: Retrospective observational study.
Background: An estimated 17% of all couples worldwide are involuntarily childless (infertile). The clinically identifiable causes of infertility can be found in the male or female partner or in both. The molecular pathophysiology of infertility still remains unclear in many cases but is increasingly being revealed by genetic analyses.

The widespread use of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) in food and beverage packaging raises concerns about its potential health effects, particularly when PET-derived nanoplastics (PET-NPs) are released into the environment. This study investigates the reproductive toxicity of PET-NPs in male mice. Mice were exposed to PET-NPs at doses of 0.

Urology Department, Urology and Nephrology Center, Mansoura University, Mansoura, Egypt.
Purpose: To compare between the dartos and tunica vaginalis flaps as covering layers in denovo distal or mid-shaft penile hypospadias underwent tubularized incised plate (TIP) repair.
Methods: This is a single-center, randomized trial was for denovo distal or mid-shaft penile hypospadias. Children with history of orchiectomy, orchiopexy and inguinal hernia repair were excluded.
Perfluorohexane Sulfonic Acid Disrupts the Immune Microenvironment for Spermatogenesis by Damaging the Structure of the Blood-Testis Barrier in Mice.

Perfluorohexane sulfonic acid (PFHxS) is extensively used in waterproof coatings and fire-fighting foams, and several studies have found it to be a potential health hazard, but there is still unknown about its effects on spermatogenesis. Our results showed that PFHxS-treated mice have significant reproductive toxicity, including a decrease in sperm count and motility, and the levels of sex hormones (P < 0.05).
