Predicting successful outcome of singleton and multiple pregnancies after assisted reproductive technologies (ART)
Pregnancies conceived through ART are increasing in prevalence in maternity units in Ireland. This is due in a large part to the increasing age of women attempting to conceive for the first time but also due to the increasing success of ART. This thesis explores pre-pregnancy characteristics that …

Large offspring syndrome, a bovine model for the human loss-of-imprinting overgrowth syndrome Beckwith-Wiedemann
… genes. Children conceived with the use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) appear to have an increased incidence of BWS. As in humans, ART can also induce a similar overgrowth syndrome in ruminants which is referred to as large offspring syndrome (LOS). The main goal of our study is …

Altered microrna expression profiles in bovine fetuses with an assisted reproduction-induced congenital overgrowth syndrome
… OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) refer to a series of fertility treatments used to conceive offspring. ART is used worldwide in humans for treatment of infertility and in ruminants to improve genetic merit. The use of ART can induce …

Investigating the effect of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on human sperm motility and function
Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have rapidly progressed through the years and it is becoming increasingly apparent that the main cause of infertility is male factor. Today, ICSI represents most treatment which itself demonstrates the severity of male infertility. This may include problems …

Assessing species-specific reproductive variation to inform assisted reproductive technologies for Canadian snakes
Assisted reproductive technologies (ART), frequently used to manage domestic livestock, are increasingly incorporated into conservation mating programs for species-at-risk. Species-specific insights on reproductive biology, including seasonal variation and endocrine function, improve ART outcomes. …

Analysis of Oocyte Quality in the Rhesus Macaque (Macaca mulatta)
… includes gene banking and the use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART), such as oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) and in vitro fertilization (IVF). Although many of these 'high-tech' solutions have not yet been proven viable for pragmatic wildlife conservation, basic research and …

Fat and Fructose Consumption Affects Pre-pubertal Gilt Reproductive Tissues and Early Embryogenesis
… number of women to seek treatment by means of assisted reproductive technologies (ART). One suggested reason for the fertility issue is modern diet, leading to diseases such as obesity and type II diabetes. In this study, twenty gilts three weeks in age, were placed on one of five dietary …

Utilising Light in Assistive Reproductive Technologies
Despite advances in assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in vitro fertilisation (IVF), success rates remain low at around 20% per initiated cycle. The quality of oocytes and embryos are key determinants of IVF success. During an IVF cycle, multiple oocytes are harvested, and several …

Ovarian Response, Embryo Quality and Ectopic Pregnancy // Овариален отговор, качество на ембрионите и извънматочна бременност
Направен е ретроспективен и проспективен анализ на 1077 бременности след 2602 не-донорски IVF/ICSI свежи и размразени цикли, като са сравнени две основни групи спрямо изхода от АРТ - 976 случая (91%) вътрематочна бременност срещу 101 случая (9%) извънматочна бременност. Приложените методики бяха …
