REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY Active immunisation against gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) provides a reversible method for control of oestrous behaviour and fertility in mares. Previous reports failed to demonstrate the interval to resumption of cyclic ovarian activity after GnRH-vaccination. HYPOTHESIS Administration of the GnRH-vaccine Improvac in a large group of mares of various age...

OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of the interval between mifepristone and misoprostol administration on induction time (first misoprostol dose to abortion), total procedure time (mifepristone administration to abortion), and safety and efficacy in second-trimester induction abortion (13-24 weeks). DATA SOURCES We searched MEDLINE (1966-2012), ClinicalTrials.gov, POPLINE, and the Cochrane Contr...

This paper proposes a scheduling method of dual ESSs (Energy Storage Systems) for the purpose reducing peak load when there are sudden loads or generation changes during on-peak time. The first ESS is scheduled once day based on day-ahead prediction, and second every 15 min time short-term prediction by LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory). Special attention paid to training using augmented past data ...

Objective(s): There is controversial evidence about the effect of methamphetamine (METH) on spatial memory. We tested the time- dependent effects of METH on spatial short-term (working) and long-term (reference) memory in METH –sensitized and withdrawn rats in the Morris water maze. Materials and Methods: Rats were sensitized to METH (2 mg/kg, daily/5 days, SC). Rats were trained in water maze ...

Article type: Original article Background & aim: Recently, the use of mifepristone followed by misoprostol after 36-48 h has been demonstrated to be an effective and safe method for the second trimester medical abortion. However, this regimen entails long total abortion time, and consequently increases the financial burden and anxiety in the patients. We hypothesize that one day interval would ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate whether values of FSH, LH, estradiol, anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), inhibin B, antral follicle count (AFC) and ovarian volume (OV) determined on day 7 of the hormone-free interval are similar to values measured on days 2-5 of two subsequent natural menstrual cycles. In addition, values measured on day 7 of the hormone-free interval were examined f...
