Factors affecting growth of the conceptus in lactating dairy cows and non-lactating dairy heifers
… cows and non-lactating heifers were examined by transrectal ultrasonography on d 33, 35, 38, 40, 42, and 45 of pregnancy. Length (l) and width (w) of the embryo and amnionic vesicle were measured. The volumes for the embryo (e_vol) and amniotic vesicle (a_vol) were calculated [volume = …

Hospitalization Itself Decreases the Serum Prostate-specific Antigen Values Compared to the Outpatient Values in Patients with Benign Prostatic Diseases
… the serum PSA values. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsies were performed for detecting prostate cancer in 2,017 patients between February 2001 and April 2011 at our institution. Among them, 416 patients who were hospitalized for prostate biopsies, whose serum …

Induced Cervical Dilation in Sheep: Evaluation of the Effects on Fertilization Rates and Embryonic Development
… were collected for progesterone analysis. Transrectal ultrasonography was used to determine pregnancy on d 25. Treatment did not affect (χ² , P > .05) pregnancy rates. For nonpregnant ewes, the period × E2 × OT interaction (P < .01) was significant. Experiments were conducted to evaluate …

Resveratrol: therapeutic role in metabolic and reproductive function in obese broodmares
… and follicular dynamics were evaluated via transrectal ultrasonography every other day. Frequently-sampled intravenous glucose tolerance tests were conducted pre- and post- treatment. Insulin and glucose kinetics were analyzed via minimal model. Resveratrol supplementation had no discernible …

Interleukin-6 Supplementation Improves Post-Transfer Embryonic and Early Fetal Development of in vitro Produced Bovine Embryos
… Embryo and fetal measurements were performed via transrectal ultrasonography weekly from days 28-56 post-insemination, respectively. Overall pregnancy rates were 40.0% IL6; 19.6% CONT; and 32.4% AI. Crown-rump lengths (CRL) were reduced (P<0.05) in CONT pregnancies when compared with IL6 and AI at …

Melatonin and seasonal cycles in muskoxen
… genital glands were measured in vivo using transrectal ultrasonography. Seasonal changes in reproductive function were evident in all animals. In intact males, mean luteinizing hormone (LH) concentrations rose from March to May, and declined by September; pulses of LH became smaller by …

Effects of Preovulatory Estradiol Concentration on Embryo Survival and Pregnancy Establishment in Beef Cows
… was used as a marker for pregnancy on d 22-28. Transrectal ultrasonography was used on d 29 to diagnose pregnancy. When ISG expression was used to predict pregnancy on d 17, 19, and 21, there was no difference between treatments. When PSPB was used to predict pregnancy on d 24, cows that …

Post-Transfer Outcomes in Cultured Bovine Embryos Supplemented with Epidermal Growth Factor, Fibroblast Growth Factor 2, and Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1
… from plasma harvested at day 28, 42 and 56. Transrectal ultrasonography was used to measure fetal crown-rump length (CRL) at day 42 and 56 and to determine fetal sex at day 60. There were no main effect differences observed across days for PAG concentration. Fetus sex by ET/AI group …

Effects of feed additives on uterine morphology and selected reproductive attributes
… of the heat stress experienced by the cows. Transrectal ultrasonography was performed every three days to assess ovarian follicular and luteal dynamics. Respiration rates (RR), rectal temperatures (RT), and blood glucose were recorded concurrently with ovarian ultrasonography. Plasma was …

Determining the role of nerve growth factor-beta in seminal plasma on bovine reproduction
… length (days 28, 45, 66) were assessed using transrectal ultrasonography. It was found that despite no change in corpus luteum size between treatments, NGF cows had increased plasma progesterone levels over CONT cows from days 10 to 19. Pregnancy rates were 75% in NGF cows and 59% in CONT …

The Effects of Artificial Photoperiod on Age at Puberty in Fall-born Ewe Lambs
… behavioral estrus. Pregnancy was determined by transrectal ultrasonography 25 days after removal of the rams. Progesterone was assayed, on all animals at four time points, using a radioimmunoassay. Plasma melatonin was assayed, in a subset of both treated and control females in replicate I prior …

Characterization of pregnancy-associated glycoproteins and progesterone as a predictor of twins and conceptus loss in high-risk pregnancy Holstein cows
… early pregnancy diagnosis is performed via ultrasonography, starting at 30 days, which provides information regarding embryo viability, uterine health, and ovarian structures. In addition, this technique allows the diagnosis of twin pregnancy that is three times more likely to be lost than a …

The Effects of a GnRH Antagonist, Cetrorelix, on Ovarian Function in Cattle
… of age, n=8 per group) were examined daily by transrectal ultrasonography to detect ovulation (Day 0 = wave emergence) and record the number, location, and diameter of follicles. In Experiment 1 of Study 1, heifers were given two doses of cetrorelix (1.5mg x2; 0.5 mg/ml in 5% D-Mannitol) 24 hr …

Studies on early fetal loss in mares
… singleton pregnancies were assessed daily by transrectal ultrasonography until induction of pregnancy termination (60±2 days of gestation). Mares received 500g of cloprostenol intramuscularly every 12 hours (IM, n=7) or once transcervically (TC, n=6). After initial cloprostenol …
