    Two large randomized controlled trials examined the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban for the treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The aim of this epidemiological study was to analyze a cohort of Italian patients affected by VTE who were treated with rivaroxaban in clinical practice. The data were collected by physicians using an online electronic questionnaire. The study was performed during a 6-month period from January to June 2014. We analyzed the clinical characteristics, risk factors for VTE, comorbidities, diagnostic techniques, and treatments in the whole population and in the subgroups with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) only, pulmonary embolism (PE) only, and DVT+PE. Overall, 75.9% of patients were affected by DVT; 20% of patients had DVT and PE; and 4.8% of patients had only PE. Approximately 90% of patients were symptomatic upon diagnosis, and 46.3% of patients required hospitalization. More than half of the patients switched to rivaroxaban after receiving another anticoagulant therapy. The main reasons for changing treatment included difficulties in managing vitamin K antagonists, patient choice, and prothrombin time-international normalized ratio (PT-INR) instability. The switch to rivaroxaban occurred after a mean of 1.8 PT-INR measurements. Clinical characteristic were overall similar to those of patients enrolled in prior clinical trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of rivaroxaban

    Garcinia imberti seeds were collected during 2015-2017 from Shangili, Cheenikkala and Bonaccord evergreen forests of Agasthyamala Biosphere Reserve, the only abode of this endangered endemic species. Germinability of seeds were analysed through decoating, Gibberellic acid (GA3) and light inductive pre-treatments on fresh (62.8 % moisture content; MC) and desiccated (fast; 23.3% MC and slow; 30.5 % MC) seeds. The seed germination with impermeable coat (0.7-1.2 mm) was restricted which on decoating got enhanced. Application of GA3 along with exposure to light breaked dormancy within 4-6 days compared to non-treated seeds that took 238-254 days to germinate. Stored seeds behaviour revealed that seed moisture content and rate of germination were negatively correlated. Seed storage was found to be more efficient only up to 80 days at controlled seed banking conditions (20 ± 20C, 20 % relative humidity; RH). Both fast and slow desiccated seeds stored for 60 days in seed bank conditions exhibited 50.4 and 43.4 % of germination compared 39.4% germination of non-desiccated seeds. Hence fast desiccated and decoated G. imberti seeds pre-treated with GA3 on subsequent exposure to light alleviated dormancy. For seed banking, fast desiccated seeds with MC in between 40-20% are found to be promising

    Impact of fast and slow desiccation on Garcinia imberti seed and seedling vigour

    Garcinia imberti Bourd. endemic to the southern Western Ghats is classified as endangered by the IUCN (2018). The seeds as the sole means of propagation with initial moisture content (MC) of 62.8% are sensitive to desiccation. Studies on the responses of the seed to drying require ascertaining of the critical moisture content (CMC) as a basic requisite for germplasm conservation. Responses of G. imberti seeds to fast drying with activated silica gel (25 ± 2 °C, 6 ± 1% RH) and to slow drying under laboratory conditions (28 ± 2°C, 60 ± 2% RH) were evaluated for seed and seedling vigour. When the MC was reduced to 56% by 48 hours of slow drying or 6 hours of fast drying, 75 to 90% normal seedlings were produced respectively. In the case of fast dried seed (6 hours), seed associated parameters except mean germination time showed peak values with maximum germination and enhanced root length. Below the CMCs of 16.4 and 26.3% (fast and slow drying respectively), half of the tested seeds become non viable. Thus for germplasm conservation the present study proposes 6 hour’s of fast drying to retain viability and normal seedling development of G. imberti

    Population genetic structure of Garcinia imberti Bourd. an endangered endemic tree of southern Western Ghats, India

    Assessing the genetic diversity of endemic plants is of great importance in future conservation programmes. The genetic diversity in Garcinia imberti from Agasthyamala Biosphere Reserve of southern Western Ghats was assessed through ISSR markers by molecular characterization with 15 primers. A total of 157 accessions from six populations were used for the study. They generated 102 amplified products, out of which 89 were polymorphic (87.25%). It produced an average of 6.8 bands per primer and 5.93% polymorphism per primer. The present study revealed that G. imberti has moderate level of genetic diversity at species level but differs at population level. The dendrogram constructed following UPGMA exhibited that all accessions were clustered together except Poonkulam population. The genetic diversity analysis of G. imberti showed that even though the populations are closely associated, every population have their own characteristic diversity and should be conserved. Among the populations, Chemunji is the largest one with more genetic diversity and may conserve as the potential source of gene pool of this species
