Total embryo cell number was similar among groups. Although Day 15 conceptuses were longer following asynchronous transfer, only 50% of the asynchronous heifers yielded conceptuses, compared with 100% in the synchronous group. In conclusion, asynchrony between the developing embryo and the reproductive tract has a negative effect on embryo…[Read more]

1% to 6.1%], using 450-ml glasses was 1.0% higher (95% CI = -9.1 to 12.2) and using 510-ml glasses was 0.4% lower (95% CI = -9.4 to 9.4). For restaurants, compared with 300-ml glasses, the volume of wine sold using 250-ml glasses did not show a significant difference 9.6% lower (95% CI = -19.0 to 0.7). Using 370-ml glasses the volume of wine sold…[Read more]

BACKGROUND Nurse staffing ratios impact both the quality and safety of care on a particular unit. Most hospitals have access to a large volume of nurse-sensitive outcomes. We hypothesized that these data could be used to explore the impact of changing the nurse-to-patient ratio on patient-reported outcomes, nurse satisfaction scores, and quality…[Read more]
