Successful treatment of severe retro-peritoneal bleeding with recombinant factor VIIa in women with placenta percreta invading into the left broad ligament: Unusual repeated ante-partum intra-abdominal bleeding
No full textWe experienced unusual repeated ante-partum intra-abdominal bleedings in a woman with placenta percreta invading into the left broad ligament, in whom recombinant factor VIIa was effective for controlling severe retro-peritoneal bleeding. A 34-year-old multiparaous woman with two prior cesarean sections presented acute abdominal pain at 16 weeks of gestation. She also represented with abdominal pain at 22 weeks of gestation, and a diagnostic laparoscopy revealed hemoperitoneum, although we could not identify the exact source of bleeding. She also represented with abdominal pain without vaginal bleeding at 27 weeks of gestation, and an MRI revealed a hematoma in the lower abdomino-pelvic region and placenta percreta invading into the left broad ligament. A classical cesarean section followed by hysterectomy with partial cystectomy was performed at 32 weeks of gestation. Since the bleeding from the retro-peritoneum could not be controlled by the use of fresh frozen plasma, recombinant factor VIIa was administered, resulting in successful hemostasis. © 2010 Japan Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology.Althabe F, 2006, LANCET, V368, P1472, DOI 10.1016-S0140-6736(06)69616-5; Bodner LJ, 2006, CARDIOVASC INTER RAD, V29, P354, DOI 10.1007-s00270-005-0023-2; Boffard KD, 2005, J TRAUMA, V59, P8, DOI 10.1097-01.TA.0000171453.37949.B7; Borekci B, 2008, J OBSTET GYNAECOL RE, V34, P402, DOI 10.1111-j.1447-0756.2008.00780.x; Bouwmeester FW, 2003, OBSTET GYNECOL, V101, P1174, DOI 10.1016-S0029-7844(03)00350-8; Butt K, 2002, OBSTET GYNECOL, V99, P981, DOI 10.1016-S0029-7844(02)02020-3; Clement D, 2004, EUR J OBSTET GYN R B, V114, P108, DOI 10.1016-j.ejogrb.2003.06.008; Faranesh R, 2007, OBSTET GYNECOL, V110, P512, DOI 10.1097-01.AOG.0000267135.31817.d6; OBrien JM, 1996, AM J OBSTET GYNECOL, V175, P1632, DOI 10.1016-S0002-9378(96)70117-5; Ojala K, 2005, ACTA OBSTET GYN SCAN, V84, P1075, DOI 10.1111-j.0001-6349.2005.00727.x; Roeters AE, 2007, OBSTET GYNECOL, V109, P574, DOI 10.1097-01.AOG.0000254168.73160.21; SHAMSI TS, 2005, J PAK MED ASS, V55, P513; Tseng Shih-Hui, 2006, Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol, V45, P150; WEEKS S, 2000, J VASC INTERV RADIOL, V11, P662; WHASHECKA R, 2002, HAWAII MED J, V61, P66; Wu S, 2005, AM J OBSTET GYNECOL, V192, P1458, DOI 10.1016-j.ajog.2004.12.07411
Measurement of and with a semileptonic tagging method
No full textInternational audienceThe experimental results on the ratios of branching fractions and , where denotes an electron or a muon, show a long-standing discrepancy with the Standard Model predictions, and might hint to a violation of lepton flavor universality. We report a new simultaneous measurement of and , based on a data sample containing events recorded at the resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB collider. In this analysis the tag-side meson is reconstructed in a semileptonic decay mode and the signal-side is reconstructed in a purely leptonic decay. The measured values are and , where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These results are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions within , and standard deviations for , and their combination, respectively. This work constitutes the most precise measurements of and performed to date as well as the first result for based on a semileptonic tagging method
Photosynthesis Responses to the Infection with Plant Pathogens
No full textPhotosynthesis, the remarkable process by which green plants synthesize nutrients using light energy, plays a crucial role in sustaining life on Earth. However, the effects of pathogens on photosynthesis are not widely understood. In general, a reduction of photosynthesis occurs upon the infection with pathogens. Two main scenarios are responsible for the reduction in photosynthetic capacity. In the first scenario, the pathogen attacks green aerial tissues, such as when caused by fungal and bacterial leaf spots and blights, which affect photosynthesis by destroying green leaf tissue or causing defoliation. This leads to a decrease in the photosynthetic area, ultimately reducing photosynthesis. Interestingly, even when the overall chlorophyll content of leaves is significantly reduced due to pathogen invasion, the remaining chlorophyll-containing leaf area may maintain or even enhance its photosynthetic efficiency. This compensatory mechanism helps mitigate the loss of photosynthetic area. However, the overall yield of the plant is still affected. The second scenario is a reduction in chlorophyll content due to chlorosis, which is characterized by yellowing of leaves. It is a common symptom of plant diseases. It refers to a reduction in the amount of chlorophyll per chloroplast rather than a decrease in chloroplast number. Diseases caused by viruses and phytoplasmas often exhibit chlorosis. While pathogens disrupt photosynthesis, plants exhibit significant adaptations to cope with these challenges. Understanding these interactions is essential for sustainable agriculture and ecosystem health. Thus, in this review, we discuss the effect of several pathogens on the photosynthesis processes and efficiency in detail. [Figure: see text] Copyright © 2025 The Author(s).

Measurement of R (D) and R (D∗) with a Semileptonic Tagging Method
No full text© 2020 authors. The experimental results on the ratios of branching fractions R(D)=B(B→Dτ-ντ)/B(B→Dℓ-νℓ) and R(D∗)=B(B→D∗τ-ντ)/B(B→D∗ℓ-νℓ), where ℓ denotes an electron or a muon, show a long-standing discrepancy with the standard model predictions, and might hint at a violation of lepton flavor universality. We report a new simultaneous measurement of R(D) and R(D∗), based on a data sample containing 772×106 BB events recorded at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider. In this analysis the tag-side B meson is reconstructed in a semileptonic decay mode and the signal-side τ is reconstructed in a purely leptonic decay. The measured values are R(D)=0.307±0.037±0.016 and R(D∗)=0.283±0.018±0.014, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These results are in agreement with the standard model predictions within 0.2, 1.1, and 0.8 standard deviations for R(D), R(D∗), and their combination, respectively. This work constitutes the most precise measurements of R(D) and R(D∗) performed to date as well as the first result for R(D) based on a semileptonic tagging method
