Reproduktionsmedicin

Mange kvinder og mænd får ikke de børn, de ønsker sig – infertilitet er den næsthyppigste kroniske sygdom blandt folk i den reproduktive alder. Alligevel behandler vi fortsat infertilitet, som om det var et luksusproblem og ikke en sygdom: Over halvdelen af alle fertilitetsbehandlinger varetages i den private sektor, hvilket skaber en enorm ulighed i behandlingstilbuddet. Hvis vi skal styrke den reproduktive sundhed, kræver det mere oplysning henvendt til unge, strukturelle forandringer samt opdaterede rammer for behandling i offentligt regi.Lone Schmidt er læge og professor mso i nedsat frugtbarhed og folkesundhedsvidenskab ved Institut for Folkesundhedsvidenskab, Københavns Universitet.Anja Pinborg er professor i gynækologi og obstetrik og ledende overlæge på Afdeling for Fertilitet på Rigshospitalet.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2014 im Fachbereich Jura - Andere Rechtssysteme, Rechtsvergleichung, Note: 12,00, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster (Rechtswissenschaftliche Fakultät), Veranstaltung: Universitäre Schwerpunktbereichsprüfung, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Bioethische Diskussionen sind in Deutschland schon immer von besonderer Intensität gewesen. Das verdeutlichen sowohl die Debatten um den Schwangerschaftsabbruch als auch der Konflikt um die Embryonen- und Stammzellforschung, der in dieser Arbeit im Mittelpunkt steht. Dieses Thema hat weltweit noch nicht den Status eines ausdrücklichen Verfassungsthemas gewonnen. In den meisten Ländern wird die Problematik der Embryonen- und embryonalen Stammzellforschung im Rahmen der Verfassungsbestimmungen über die Menschenwürde und über das Recht auf Leben behandelt. In dieser Arbeit geht es vor allem um die Menschenwürde, die für die Teilnehmer der deutschen Stammzelldebatte als ¿ethikgeprägtes Konzept¿ und ¿tragendes Konstitutionsprinzip¿ des Grundgesetzes für den Schutz früher Embryonen von elementarer Bedeutung ist. Da dazu aber keine konkrete Würdeschutzregelung existiert, müssen Ableitungen aus dem abstrakten Satz des Art. 1 Abs. 1 S. 1 GG ¿Die Würde des Menschen ist unantastbar¿ im Wege der Verfassungsinterpretation vorgenommen werden. Es stellt sich die Frage, ob bei der Interpretation der Menschenwürdegarantie zugunsten früher Embryonen von der Rechtsvergleichung als Rationalitätskriterium Gebrauch gemacht wurde.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2015 im Fachbereich Ethik, Note: 1,0, Universität Bielefeld, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit untersucht Rettungsgeschwister und die damit einhergehende Embryonenselektion. Dabei teilt sich die Arbeit in zwei einzeln zu betrachtende Abschnitte auf: Der erste Abschnitt besteht aus der Frage, inwieweit die benötigte Präimplantationsdiagnostik ethisch vertretbar ist, obwohl hier potentielles Leben vernichtet und der Wert eines Menschenlebens anhand spezieller Kriterien bemessen wird. Der zweite Teil dieser Arbeit behandelt schließlich die ethischen Bedenken nach der Zeugung und Geburt des Rettungsgeschwisterkindes, das häufig schmerzhafte Eingriffe in Kauf nehmen muss, um seinem Geschwisterkind zu helfen.Dabei sind die Betroffenen häufig viel zu jung, um diese Entscheidung selbst zu treffen, weshalb ihre Eltern über den Körper des Rettungsgeschwisterkindes entscheiden. Fragen nach dem Recht auf Unversehrtheit des eigenen Körpers sowie nach der Instrumentalisierung eines Menschen werden hier diskutiert.Das Konzept der Rettungsgeschwister ist vielen wohl vor allem durch den Film "Beim Leben meiner Schwester" bekannt. In diesem Film ist die 15-jährige Kate an Leukämie erkrankt und befindet sich bereits im Endstadium. Dass Kate überhaupt 15 Jahre alt geworden ist, hat sie ihrer jüngeren Schwester zu verdanken, die als einzige Knochenmark-Spenderin für Kate infrage kommt. Denn Kates Eltern haben schon früh eine Entscheidung getroffen, um das Leben ihrer Tochter zu verlängern ¿ sie haben mittels der In-vitro-Fertilisation, also der Zeugung im Reagenzglas, mehrere Eizellen befruchten lassen und dann anhand der Präimplantationsdiagnostik, kurz PID genannt, den Embryo ausgewählt, der genetisch am besten zu Kate passt. Aus dem durch diesen Prozess ausgewählten Embryo entstand schließlich Kates jüngere Schwester Anna. Sie muss nun immer wieder Knochenmark, Blut und schließlich sogar eine Niere an ihre Schwester spenden. In dieser Arbeit soll nun thematisiert werden, inwieweit solche künstlich gezeugten Rettungsgeschwister ethisch zu vertreten sind.

Reproduction is the backbone of animal-based food production. The reproductive systems of animals vary and are species-dependent. In this regard, all terrestrial animals perform internal fertilization, whereas aquatic animals perform different reproductive strategies such as internal fertilization without mating, external fertilization, viviparous, oviparous, and parthenogenesis. Today, reproductive biotechnology is an important part of the conservation and propagation of animals. This book addresses several hot topics in the field of reproduction of terrestrial and aquatic animals. Over five sections and eight chapters, this volume examines subjects such as cryopreservation, embryo transfer, avian reproduction, intraovarian gestation, and more.

Lizzie Stark takes readers on a witty, revealing and delightful journey through the natural and cultural history of the egg, exploring its deep symbolism, innumerable uses and metabolic importance in twelve dazzling specimens. From Mali to Finland, Stark looks at cultures that find the world's origins in an egg. Decorated by Ukrainians, an oracle for Greeks, the impetus behind gang wars and flown into space, the egg-whether of chickens, murres or ostriches-has taken on mythic proportions, all the while serving as a humble ingredient in fancy dishes. Stark even writes Jacques Pépin's biography through the lens of the egg dishes he served. Egg is also about Stark's fascination with this delicate ovoid-both her myriad attempts to create a perfect omelette and her fraught relationship to the ova in her body. Filled with colourful characters and fascinating morsels, Egg is a playful, informative and surprising history that guarantees you'll never take the egg for granted again.

This comprehensive volume focuses on recent trends and new technologies used in the management of reproduction in major farm animals, focusing on both males and females of bovine, equine, and porcine species. With chapters written by scientists who specialize in their respective topics.

A beautifully illustrated, one-stop resource that bridges all four anatomical sciencesClinical Anatomy, Histology, Embryology and Neuroanatomy: An Integrated Textbook by Jamie Wikenheiser bridges all four anatomical sciences in one volume with clinically focused anatomical text and exceptional illustrations. The book fills a gap in the literature, serving as a one-stop resource for multiple courses and board-review preparation, and also provides an invaluable reference for professional practice. The primary goals of integrating the four sciences into one book are to enhance students' understating of the subject matter, better prepare them for national exams, and most importantly-enable them to deliver optimal care to their future patients.The introductory chapter includes clear explanations of anatomic terminology and an overview describing all systems of the body. The rest of the textbook is organized by region to better align with how most professional schools organize their curriculums, while also providing flexibility to fit alternate curriculums. Chapters on the Back, Thorax, Abdomen, Pelvis and Perineum, Lower Extremity, Upper Extremity, and Head and Neck regions are followed by multiple chapters focused on Neuroanatomy. Region-based chapters with multiple organs begin with an introduction to gross anatomy, followed by descriptions of the associated neurovasculature and lymphatic drainage. Development and the histology of organs is presented alongside the neurovasculature.Key HighlightsOver 350 surgical, nonsurgical, and developmental clinical correlates prepare readers for potential issues encountered during rotations, residency, or private practiceNearly 250 USMLE(R) Step 1 board review questions facilitate learningPlain and contrast radiographs, CTs, MRIs, and ultrasonography studies enhance understanding of normal

God of Sperm tells the remarkable story of Dr. Cappy Miles Rothman, the son of notorious gangster Norman Roughhouse Rothman, who went on to become a trailblazer in the field of reproductive medicine.Rothman started the California Cryobank, one of the world's largest repositories of reproductive genetic material and cord-blood stem cells. Among other achievements, Rothman also pioneered the use of microsurgery in urological procedures, postmortem sperm retrieval techniques, and was one of the first practitioners of andrology, a specialty dealing with male reproductive biology and medicine.How Cappy Rothman went from Mafia scion and man-about-town during the postwar Miami Beach--Havana era of gangster chic to one of the most consequential figures in modern medicine is an epic, only-in-America tale that is also a fine reminder of the broad horizons and wild possibilities life in the U.S. can offer.

This book discusses the various antioxidants that are in use to overcome oxidative stress in an assisted reproduction setting. Antioxidant therapies may range from enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants, either alone or in combination. While no one antioxidant regime has been identified as effective in improving fertilization and pregnancy rates, antioxidant supplementation has been shown to defend sperm cells from lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage to DNA, and thus improve pregnancy rates. The prevention of oxidative stress and its consequent damage is imperative to ensure a successful outcome of the in vitro fertilization procedure and embryo transfer. Strategies that could be employed to minimize or prevent the detrimental effects of OS during assisted reproduction include supplementation with various types of antioxidants.

This book provides the Assisted Reproduction Technologies (ART) community an update of the fast approaching novel technologies that may allow improved assessment of the reproductive potential of sperm, oocytes and embryos. The reader has access to concise updates on the rapidly developing diagnostic technologies (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics) and morphological methods which may help us better assess the gametes and embryos. Methodologies are described which enable selection of the best gamete or embryo by invasive and non-invasive diagnostics, as well as the clinical validity of these techniques.

En følelsesmæssig rutsjebanetur og en krop, der kæmper for at følge med til det hele. Sådan beskriver Kirsten Marie Juel Jensen det at prøve at få børn og være i et langt fertilitetsbehandlingsforløb. Da hun selv stod midt i inseminationer og IVF-forsøg, savnede hun at høre andres erfaringer. Derfor har hun nu kastet sig ud i at fortælle sin personlige historie – i samarbejde med sin kæreste Thor Seierø Mouritsen – så du i denne bog får både kvindens og mandens perspektiv på hormonsprøjterne, sædprøverne, ægudtagningerne, uvisheden, de grimme følelser, de glade følelser og behovet for en plan B. De har ingen facitlister, for alle fertilitetsforløb er forskellige. Men de fortæller, hvad der virkede for dem, så de kunne overleve et mangeårigt fertilitetsforløb som mennesker og som par. Skal I ikke snart have nogen børn? indeholder også en række fakta om medicin og behandlinger og afsluttes med et interview med to rådgivere fra Landsforeningen for Ufrivilligt Barnløse (LFUB) – Helene Cagara Bækgaard, jordemoder og psykoterapeut MPF, og Lise Holck, cand.pæd.pæd.psych og lektor i psykologi. De giver deres bud på, hvilke tanker der er vigtige at gøre sig før og under et fertilitetsbehandlingsforløb og kommer også ind på de særlige overvejelser, der kan gøre sig gældende, hvis man er solomor eller et lesbisk par i behandling.
