Strawberry Yield Improvement by Hydrogen-Based Irrigation Is Functionally Linked to Altered Rhizosphere Microbial Communities.

Molecular hydrogen (H) is crucial for agricultural microbial systems. However, the mechanisms underlying its influence on crop yields is yet to be fully elucidated. This study observed that H-based irrigation significantly increased strawberry ( × Duch.

The delayed senescence in harvested blueberry by hydrogen-based irrigation is functionally linked to metabolic reprogramming and antioxidant machinery.

Molecular hydrogen is beneficial for fruits quality improvement. However, the mechanism involved, especially cellular metabolic responses, has not been well established. Here, the integrated widely targeted metabolomics analysis (UPLC-MS/MS) and biochemical evidence revealed that hydrogen-based irrigation could orchestrate, either directly or indirectly, an array of physiological responses in blueberry (Vaccinium spp.

[Maternal-fetal transmission of HIV: preventive measures and prenatal care].

HIV can be transmitted to foetus during pregnancy, labour, and breastfeeding. An estimated 600,000 newborns acquired HIV each year through mother to fetus transmission. Without preventive interventions, approximately 25% of infants born to HIV positive mothers contract the virus.

Delivery management in a woman with thrombocytopenia of the May-Hegglin anomaly type.

Thrombocytopenia of the May-Hegglin anomaly type was diagnosed in a woman with no past history of bleeding diathesis, who had been followed during her three pregnancies. No abnormal bleeding occurred although no platelet transfusion was administered during the second and third cesarean sections. Routine platelets transfusion is unnecessary but platelets should be available for use if abnormal bleeding occurs.
