Pumpkins (; Cucurbitaceae) are the rich source of nutrients and valued for their biologically active substances to be used for the treatment of several diseases. The contents, composition, and conformation of starch are the significant quality traits of . Two germplasms were targeted for analysis regarding the taste difference.

Background: Pumpkins (Cucurbita moschata; Cucurbitaceae) are valued for their fruits and seeds and are rich in nutrients. Carotenoids and sugar contents, as main feature of pumpkin pulp, are used to determine the fruit quality.

Results: Two pumpkin germplasms, CMO-X and CMO-E, were analyzed regarding the essential quality traits such as dry weight, soluble solids, organic acids, carotenoids and sugar contents.

Article Synopsis
  • The incidence of post-cardiac injury syndrome (PCIS) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is decreasing, but the exact causes are still unclear.
  • A case study of a 45-year-old male with AMI showed early PCIS onset, with slow blood flow in the affected arteries and no significant trauma from the intervention, suggesting a link between coronary microvascular dysfunction and PCIS.
  • The case highlights excessive inflammation and microvascular issues following ischemia-reperfusion injury, indicating a possible connection between PCIS and the effectiveness of PPCI in patients with endothelial dysfunction risks.
