These coincidences occurred 10 times with a nulliparous female and once with another parous female. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Firstly, do parous females only demonstrate false oestrus behaviour in the presence of naïve, nulliparous females?. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
We also examined the effects of age at first full-term pregnancy and duration of breast feeding among parous women. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Among parous women, breastfeeding was not associated with risk of overall B-cell NHL or any of the histologic subtypes. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
We recorded the oestrus event of a parous female as 'false' if the female was pregnant, senescent, or in a state of lactation induced infertility. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Analysis showing that nulliparous female elephants do not direct their oestrous behaviour appropriately towards musth males, unlike parous females. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
We therefore find no difference in the performance of nulliparous females whether their oestrus event coincided with false oestrus of a parous relative or not. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
The analysis presented here confirms that parous female elephants of the Amboseli population do simulate oestrus behaviour, although such simulations are seemingly rare. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Each panel shows how many events occurred singly in a family, how many coincided with a genuine oestrus event of another parous female, and how many with a nulliparous female. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
This leaves us with the final possibility that parous females simulate oestrus in order to demonstrate towards which males the oestrus behaviours are most appropriately directed. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
That is, do parous females display false oestrus behaviours to coincide with the first occasions that young, nulliparous females come into oestrus, in order to provide information?. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Among parous women, those who had a first full-term pregnancy at age 25 years or older were at higher risk of overall B-cell NHL than those who had a first full-term pregnancy before age 25. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
While the lack of a trend among parous women in our data could result from a threshold effect, the overall inconsistency in the literature also suggests our observations may be a chance finding. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
As there is only one example of coincidence with a parous female, this case cannot be properly analysed, so we shall concentrate on the 10 cases that coincide with oestrus of a nulliparous female. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
The prevalence of these symptoms at some time during the follow-up period or in a subsequent pregnancy was 58\% in the symphysiotomy group and 60\% in parous women with unassisted vaginal deliveries. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
For business course degree, in haik, the caller turnpike went wearily when a massive squat affectional a bigoted laudator aquaculture, incongruously parous when the law went successfully into smoothbore. From Wordnik.com. [Rational Review] Reference
The survey, performed by Dr. Alison Stuebe with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, studied more than 60,000 women who had given birth to at least one live baby (parous) over an eight-year period. From Wordnik.com. [News/local from www.dailyamerican.com] Reference
Of the 10 coincidences between nulliparous and parous females, the parous female was the mother of the nulliparous female in four cases, an older sister in two cases, and the matriarch of the family in four cases. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
"In this large, prospective cohort study of parous premenopausal women, having ever breast-fed was inversely associated with incidence of breast cancer among women with a family history of breast cancer," Stuebe said in a press release. From Wordnik.com. [News/local from www.dailyamerican.com] Reference
We show that parous females in the Amboseli elephant population do simulate receptive oestrus behaviours, and this false oestrus occurs disproportionately in the presence of naïve female kin who are observed coming into oestrus for the first time. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Demonstration by parous relatives may encourage nulliparous females to direct their oestrus behaviour towards the much larger musth males, rather than running away from them, helping them to learn to attach themselves to males that are able to guard them. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Similarly, the occurrence of false oestrus in the presence of young, nulliparous relatives, by females who are already pregnant, senescent, or lactating, is inconsistent with the hypothesis that it serves to directly improve the reproductive success of the parous female. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Coincidence of genuine oestrus events was low: only 9% (n = 87) of genuine oestrus events coincided with an oestrus period of another female in the same family (76 with a parous relative, and 11 with a nulliparous relative, no individual contributed more than one data point). From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Although the observed data do not fully conform to the predictions of any of these hypotheses, we rule out the first two, and tentatively suggest that parous females most likely exhibit false oestrus behaviours in order to demonstrate to naïve relatives at whom to direct their behaviour. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
We aim to determine when parous female elephants are most likely to exhibit false oestrus, and compare the pattern of false oestrus events against predictions made by several alternative hypotheses, in an attempt to establish the most likely explanation for the occurrence of false oestrus in African elephants. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
However, it is possible that the occurrence of false oestrus by a parous female, coincident with the genuine oestrus of a nulliparous female, is more common than the data here suggest; if the lack of oestrus state is correctly recognized by a researcher, such actions would not be recorded as oestrus behaviour.

Bearing in mind these varieties of congenital development in relation to the respective condition of virginity, or sterile or parous married life, the mode of occurrence and of progress of disease grows on the physician's mind, and there is no more occasion for bewilderment than to the mathematician studying conic sections, when his knowledge has grown from the basis of the science.

All nulliparous females required a similar number of oestrus cycles before conceiving (median, min-max range months to birth: if first oestrus alone = 24, 20-99 months; if coincident with parous female in oestrus = 25, 21-66; if coincident with parous female showing false oestrus =. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Coincidence of false oestrus with the oestrus events of nulliparous females was significantly greater than expected from the pattern of coincident oestrus events where both were genuine, whereas the observed frequencies of coincidence with another parous female are consistent with what is expected by chance (chi square test: χ.
