Primipaternity in multiparas as a predominant high risk factor for preeclampsia over prolonged birth intervals: A study of 33,000 singleton pregnancies in Reunion Island.

Objectives: To evaluate the relative importance of changing paternity ("primipaternity", direct inquiry with patients) in multiparas versus prolonged birth/pregnancy interval as risk factors for preeclampsia (PE) by a logistic regression model comparing the adjusted odds ratios of both exposures.

Design: Assessment of all consecutive singleton deliveries (from 22 weeks onwards) at South-Reunion University's maternity (Reunion Island, Indian Ocean) over 23 years (2001-2023) using an epidemiological perinatal database on obstetrical factors (264 items in total, of which, chronic or gestational hypertension, proteinuria, HELLP syndrome).

Results: Among the 53,572 multiparous singleton pregnancies, we identified 33,312 (62%) of multiparas who gave consecutive births, allowing calculation of birth intervals.

Conferring non-strain-specific resistance to a potyvirus via overexpression of mutant potyviral coat proteins in soybean.

Transgenic soybean (Glycine max) plants expressing mutant potyviral coat proteins that disrupt virion assembly exhibited non-strain-specific resistance against soybean mosaic virus.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Takotsubo Syndrome: Updated Insights From a Retrospective Analysis Using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample.

Background We explored the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the prevalence and outcomes of takotsubo syndrome (takotsubo) using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to compare trends before and during the pandemic. Methods This retrospective study examined data from over 137 million admissions during 2017-2018 (pre-pandemic) and 2020-2021 (pandemic). Results Our analysis revealed a marked increase in takotsubo prevalence, from 109.

Effects of Arthroscopic Surgery and Non-Surgical Therapy on Hip Contact Forces in Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome.

Introduction: We compared the 12-months effects of arthroscopic surgery and physiotherapist-led care for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome on the time-varying magnitude of hip contact force and muscle contributions to hip contact force during walking.

Methods: Secondary analysis was performed on thirty-seven individuals with FAI syndrome who received biomechanical assessment before and 12-months following either arthroscopic surgery (n = 17) or physiotherapist-led care (Personalised Hip Therapy, PHT) (n = 20). At both time points, three-dimensional whole-body motions, ground reaction forces, and surface electromyograms (n = 14) were acquired during overground walking.
