background & aim: occupational exposures can cause problems such as reproductive system disorders; however, the effects of some exposures, such as psychological stress, have not been investigated yet. this study aims to investigate the effects of women’s psychological stress on obstetric disorders. methods:this historical cohort study was conducted on 1400 working women in mashhad, iran. data c...

There is increasing evidence that exposure to stress during development can have sustained effects on animal phenotype and performance across life-history stages. For example, developmental stress has been shown to decrease the quality of sexually selected traits (e.g. bird song), and therefore is thought to decrease reproductive success. However, animals exposed to developmental stress may com...

mungbean (vigna radiata (l.) wilczek) or green gram as a dryland grain legume is exposed to varied timings and severity of drought stress, resulting in variability in photoassimilate production. in order to evaluate some physiological responses in one mungbean cultivar to timing and severity of drought stress, a 3-replicate rcbd (randomized complete block design) field experiment was carried ou...

In order to investigate drought stress and plant density the yield, yield components and protein of spotted bean grain (cultivar Talash), an experiment was carried out as split plots in randomized complete blocks with three replications in Yasouj, in 2012. Factors of the test including irrigation in three levels; without stress (control treatment), water stress in vegetative stage (interrupting...

in order to study the effects of foliar application of zn and k on yield and some physiological traits of spring safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.), cv. esfahan 14, under drought stress, a pot experiment was conducted in research greenhouse of yasouj university. experiment was a factorial based on completely randomized design with three replications. factors consisted of drought stress (s1- wi...

background: polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) is a complex, multifaceted, heterogeneous disorder, affecting 4%-18% of reproductive-aged women and it is associated with reproductive, metabolic and psychological dysfunctions. pcos affects quality of life and can worsen anxiety and depression either due to the features of pcos or due to the diagnosis of a chronic disease. methods: in this descripti...

Semelparous Pacific salmon (Onchorynchus spp.) serve as an excellent model for examining the relationships between life history, behavior and individual variation in glucocorticoid (GC) stress hormone levels because reproductive behaviors are highly variable between individuals and failure to reproduce results in zero fitness. Pink salmon (O. gorbuscha) were intercepted upon arrival at the spaw...
