Aneuploidy does not explain the difference in outcomes observed between Asian and Caucasian patients undergoing in vitro fertilization
Conclusion While there may be a slight difference in blastocyst formation rates, there is no difference in aneuploidy or euploid blastocyst transfer rates between Asian and Caucasian patients that would explain the discrepancy in IVF outcomes observed between these patient populations. Possible ethnicity specific differences in non-ploidy related embryo viability and endometrial receptivity should be investigated as potential etiologies for this observation.

Incidence of uterine torsion during veterinary-assisted dystocia and singleton live births after vaginal delivery in Holstein-Friesian cows at pasture
Conclusions A high frequency of uterine torsion was observed in Holstein-Friesian cows with normal or slowly affected general health status at delivery time at pasture. The singleton live births prevailed and, in general, their occurrence by vaginal delivery after uterus reposition were most likely to occur in cows with uterine torsion than dams presenting other dystocia.
