Association between sperm motility in thawed semen and pregnancy rate in Mediterranean buffaloes by Armando Quintero-Moreno, Carla Osorio Meléndez, Héctor Nava-Trujillo, Jorge Rubio Guillén, Juan Carlos Gutiérrez-Añez, Adriana Camacho de Gutiérrez

“…To achieve the objective, the PR obtained was categorized from highest to the lowest value (A: PR>70%, B: PR>60≤70%, C: PR>50≤60%, D: PR>40≤50%), in addition to creating sperm subpopulations (Sp) based on the quality of sperm movement, for which it was decided to use the VAP, since it is a variable that integrates the VCL and the VSL and indirectly assumes the LIN, creating the following categories: Z= Sp with VAP value ≥ 80 mμ/s, Y: Sp with a VAP value ≥ 50 and < 80 mμ/s, X= Sp with a VAP ≥30 and < 50 mμ/s, W=Sp with a VAP ≥ 10 <30 mμ/s, V= VAP <10 mμ/s. …”

Mechanism of Bushen Huoxue Recipe on Improving Arterial Calcification in Rats with Osteoporosis Based on OPG/RANKL Signaling Pathway by LIN Xiaorong, YANG Na, ZHENG Bei, ZHAO Hu, XU Junxia

“…Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure the bone mass density (BMD) of femoral shaft of right hindlimb; alizarin red staining was used to detect integrated optical density (IOD) of calcification deposition on the vascular wall of thoracic aorta, and the calcification degree of thoracic aorta was observed; ELISA method was used to detect serum levels of PⅠNP, BGP and CTX-Ⅰ; immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of OPG and RANKL proteins in thoracic aorta.Results1) BMD and IOD value of thoracic aorta calcification deposition: compared with the control group, there were no significant changes of BMD and IOD value in thoracic aorta calcification deposition of the sham operation group (<italic>P</italic>&gt;0.05), while the BMD of the osteoporosis group decreased significantly, and the IOD value of thoracic aorta calcification deposition increased significantly (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). …”
