RESUMO

RATIONALE: Compressive myelopathy and compression fracture of aggressive vertebral hemangioma after parturition is a rare condition. Vertebral body compression fracture and high serum progesterone lead to extraosseous hemangioma enlargment cause narrowing the spinal canal which contribute to compressive myelopathy relate to pregnancy. PATIENT CONCERNS: We report a case of compressive myelopathy and compression fracture of aggressive vertebral hemangioma after parturition in a 35-year-old woman. The patient complained unable to walk and experienced intense pain in the back. DIAGNOSIS: Based on the clinical features and imaging studies, the patient underwent a T4-T6 laminectomy. Histopathology consistent with vertebral hemangioma. INTERVENTIONS: The patient underwent laminectomy for decompression. After subperiosteal dissection of the paraspinal muscles and exposure of the laminae, there was no involvement of the lamina by the tumor. The epidural tumor was removed through the spaces lateral to the thecal sac. Vertebroplasty was performed through T5 pedicles bilaterally and 7 ml of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement was injected. T4-T6 pedicle screw fixation was performed for segmental fixation and fusion. OUTCOMES: Six months after resection of the tumor the patient remained asymptomatic. She reported no low back pain and had returned to her normal daily activities, with no radiographic evidence of recurrence on MRI. Physical examination revealed that superficial and deep sensation was restored to normal levels in the lower extremities. LESSONS: The occurrence of compressive myelopathy of pregnancy related vertebral hemangiomas is quite unusual. It can lead to serious neurologic deficits if not treated immediately. So, prompt diagnosis is important in planning optimal therapy and preventing morbidity for patients.

RESUMO

Today East Asia harbors many "relict" plant species whose ranges were much larger during the Paleogene-Neogene and earlier. The ecological and climatic conditions suitable for these relict species have not been identified. Here, we map the abundance and distribution patterns of relict species, showing high abundance in the humid subtropical/warm-temperate forest regions. We further use Ecological Niche Modeling to show that these patterns align with maps of climate refugia, and we predict species' chances of persistence given the future climatic changes expected for East Asia. By 2070, potentially suitable areas with high richness of relict species will decrease, although the areas as a whole will probably expand. We identify areas in southwestern China and northern Vietnam as long-term climatically stable refugia likely to preserve ancient lineages, highlighting areas that could be prioritized for conservation of such species.

RESUMO

With medicinal plant Erigeron breviscapus as test material, its biomass and the contents and yields of scutellarin and caffeate were monitored under doubled (800 +/- 100) micromol x mol(-1) and natural (400 +/- 25) micromol x mol(-1) CO2 concentration. Comparing with those under natural CO2 concentration, the biomass of E. breviscapus under doubled CO2 concentration increased by 22%, the contents of scutellarin and caffeate increased by 23% and 26%, and the yields of these two constituents increased by 37.6% and 45.3%, respectively. Different organs had different responses in their biomass and active constituent contents to the elevated CO2 concentration. Under doubled CO2 concentration, the plant N content decreased by 47.2% and was negatively correlated with active constituent contents, being accorded well to the C/N balance hypothesis, and the biomass was positively correlated with the active constituent contents while no trade-off was observed between plant growth and secondary metabolism, suggesting that rational application of CO2 could improve the yield and quality of E. breviscapus.
