Retained product of conception complicates nearly 1% of pregnancies and can lead to synechiae and compromise ulterior fertility. The aim of this study is to evaluate efficiency of operative hysteroscopy in management of retained products of conception (RPOC). Secondary objectives are assessments of intra-uterine adhesions rate and later fertility. This unicentric retrospective study includes women who undertook an operative hysteroscopy for retained products of conception between January 2012 and March 2014. Assessment of the efficiency of operative hysteroscopy is defined by a complete resection of retained products of conception confirmed by office hysteroscopy. One hundred fourteen women were included in the study. Efficiency of operative hysteroscopy for retained products of conception is 91% for women with a postoperative office hysteroscopy. The authors observed a 7.5% rate of postoperative intra-uterine adhesions. Fertility rate was 83% (30 women out of 36 with a desired pregnancy). Hysteroscopic resection of retained products of conception is an efficient procedure and seems to be a real alternative.

Hyperthyroidism in a Twin Pregnancy With a Hydatidiform Mole and a Coexisting Live Fetus: Management Dilemmas.

Hyperthyroidism in twin pregnancies involving a hydatidiform mole and a coexisting live fetus is a rare condition requiring careful management. We present a 34-year-old pregnant woman at 12 weeks' gestation with severe nausea, vomiting, and mild vaginal bleeding. A transvaginal ultrasound revealed a dichorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy with 1 normal fetus and 1 hydatidiform mole, leading to hyperthyroidism from elevated β human chorionic gonadotropin levels.

Carbon dots (CDs) derived from natural products have attracted considerable interest as eco-friendly materials with a wide range of applications, such as bioimaging, sensors, catalysis, and solar energy harvesting. Among these applications, electroluminescence (EL) is particularly desirable for light-emitting devices in display and lighting technologies. Typically, EL devices incorporating CDs feature a layered structure, where CDs function as the central emissive layer, flanked by charge transport layers and electrodes.

However, there is limited information on their stover yield (SY) and nutritional quality when both grain and forage are harvested. This study assessed five stay-green sorghum varieties at the Bako Agricultural Research Centre using a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2020, 2021, and 2022.

Investigating the impact of heteroatom alloying extents on regulating the cluster structures is crucial for the fabrication of cluster-based nanomaterials with customized properties. Herein, two structurally comparable PdAu ( = 1, 2) nanoclusters with a uniform surface environment but completely distinct kernel configurations were controllably synthesized and structurally determined. The single Pd-alloyed Pd1Au12 nanocluster retained an icosahedral metal framework, while the Pd2Au12 nanocluster with two Pd heteroatoms exhibited a unique toroidal configuration.

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) can effectively stabilize Se oxyanions, yet the thermal stability of Se oxyanions incorporated into LDHs remains unclear. In this study, calcination products of three types of LDHs loaded with SeO2- 3 or SeO2-4 were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (XAFS) and leaching tests. It has been found that SeO2-4 can be reduced to SeO2- 3 in the Fe-containing LDHs after calcination at temperatures above 450 °C.
