Published: April 2010

The inhibin beta A (INHBA) gene was chosen as candidate for stallion fertility and analysed for intragenic markers to find associations with pregnancy rate per oestrus. Intragenic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were developed in order to perform an association and haplotype analysis using the least square means (LSM) of the pregnancy rate per oestrus for stallions as well as breeding values (BVs) for the embryonic and paternal component of the pregnancy rate per oestrus. The polymorphisms were genotyped in 161 Hanoverian warmblood stallions. Insemination records from approximately 20,000 Hanoverian warmblood mares were used to calculate LSM for stallions and to predict the paternal and embryonic component of BVs for the pregnancy rate per oestrus. We demonstrated significant associations of single markers and haplotypes with the LSM and the embryonic and paternal component of BVs for the pregnancy rate per oestrus. This is the first report on INHBA as an associated candidate gene with the LSM of stallions and the paternal and embryonic component of BVs for the pregnancy rate per oestrus.

Importance: High-quality colonoscopy reduces the risks of colorectal cancer by increasing the adenoma detection rate. Routine use of an automatic quality control system (AQCS) to assist in colorectal adenoma detection should be considered.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of an AQCS on the adenoma detection rate among colonoscopists who were moderate- and low-level detectors during routine colonoscopy.

The objective of this study is to explore the impact of the use of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in female undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) on reproductive outcomes. A literature search was performed using electronic databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang data, Geen Medical, and Cochrane Library). Risk ratio (RR), odds ratio (OR), and mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for various outcomes were presented.

European central hypoventilation syndrome consortium description of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome neonatal onset.

Unlabelled: It is known that in most cases of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS), apnoeas and hypoventilation occur at birth. Nevertheless, a detailed description of initial symptoms, including pregnancy events and diagnostic tests performed, is warranted in infants with neonatal onset of CCHS, that is, in the first month of life. The European Central Hypoventilation Syndrome Consortium created an online patient registry from which 97 infants (44 females) with CCHS of neonatal onset and PHOX2B mutation from 10 countries were selected.

Purpose: This study was aimed to assess the effect of intermittent fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring using Moyo Doppler compared with fetoscope in hospitals of Ethiopia, 2023.

Background: To facilitate more prompt identification of a hypoxic fetus, Laerdal Global Health has recently introduced the Moyo FHR monitor. Nevertheless, there exists limited knowledge regarding its efficacy derived from multicenter contextual trials conducted in resource-constrained environments, specifically in Ethiopia.
