  • Attenuation of Antepartum Relaxin Surge and Induction of Parturition by Antiprogesterone RU 486 in Sheep O
    Attenuation of antepartum relaxin surge and induction of parturition by antiprogesterone RU 486 in sheep O. S. Gazal, Y. Li, C. Schwabe and L. L. Anderson 1 Department of Animal Science, Iowa State University, Ames, LA 50011, USA; and 2Department of Biochemistry, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC 29459, USA Pregnant ewes were injected with either the antiprogesterone, RU 486 (4 mg kg\m=-\1body weight, i.m.; n = 5), 3000 iu relaxin (i.m.; n = 9), or diluent (n = 8) at 12:00 h on days 144 and 145, to determine its effect on progesterone and relaxin secretion, and on induction of lambing. RU 486 induced earlier lambing (P < 0.01) compared with diluent treatment, but relaxin treatment did not significantly reduce the interval to parturition. Mean injection\p=n-\ lambing intervals were 31 \m=+-\2, 109 \m=+-\23 and 121 \m=+-\27 h for the RU 486, relaxin and diluent groups, respectively. There was no incidence of difficult birth (dystocia); all lambs were vigorous at birth; and placenta delivery was rapid (within 207 min) with RU 486 and relaxin treatments compared with diluent treated controls. Plasma progesterone concen- trations averaged 11 ng ml\m=-\1during the pretreatment period for all animals. RU 486 had a biphasic effect on progesterone concentrations, causing an initial increase (P < 0.05) within 2 h, and then an abrupt drop (P < 0.01) to 6 ng ml\m=-\1by 18:00 h on day 145. Progesterone concentrations remained consistently lower (P < 0.05) in relaxin-treated ewes than in diluent\x=req-\ treated controls from days 144 to 147 and then began a steady decrease to 4 ng ml\m=-\1on the day of parturition (days 149 and 150) in both groups.

  • Public Comment
    September 30, 2011 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Department of Health and Human Services, Attention: CMS-9992-IFC2, P.O. Box 8010, Baltimore, MD 21244-8010 Submitted Electronically Via Email Re. File Code CMS-9992-IFC2 Dear Sir or Madam, On August 3, 2011 the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued an interim final rule for individual and group health plans related to women’s preventive services coverage under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA).1 76 Fed. Reg. 46621 (Aug. 3, 2011). In it HHS specified Health and Research Services (HRSA) guidelines that must be covered by individual and group health plans under the PPACA, including contraceptives and sterilization procedures, among other “preventive services” for women. The regulation also requested comments related to its definition for “religious employers” that may be eligible to receive an exemption from this coverage mandate. On behalf of the Family Research Council (FRC), which represents hundred of thousands of American families, we oppose strongly the decision to include, with no cost sharing, “all Food and Drug Administration-approved contraceptive methods, sterilization procedures, and patient education and counseling”2 in the list of mandated services which all individual and group health plans will be required to cover. We oppose this mandate because: 1) contraceptives and sterilization procedures do not constitute a form of preventive medicine since they do not prevent any disease; 2) access to contraception is already widely available in 1 PPACA, P.L. 111-148 as enacted contains a provision on preventive health services in Section 1001, which created a new section 2713 of the Public Health Service Act (PHSA) to mandate that all individual and group health plans provide coverage for preventive care in accordance with guidelines offered by the U.S.
