The intensity and frequency of drought have increased considerably during the last decades in southeastern Europe, projected scenarios suggest that southern central Europe will be affected by more events end 21st century. In this context, assessing intraspecific genetic variation forest tree species identifying populations expected to best adapted future climate conditions is essential for increasing productivity adaptability. Using a tree-ring database from 60 38-year-old silver fir (Abies...
Provenance trials replicated in multiple environments allow the selection of populations with high and stable performances. In this study, two methods have been applied to select Norway spruce provenances performances three provenance established Romania 1972, where 81 tested. Four traits were assessed: total pruned height, diameter at breast height survival rate. Two multi-trait indices used: genotype-ideotype distance index (MGIDI) for each trial stability (MTSI) across trials. The...
Abstract Background In Romania, 23 patients have been diagnosed with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRh), 18 of whom the Glu54Gln mutation. This retrospective cohort included all -mutated ATTRh who were in Romania from 2005 to 2018. Results Of patients, 10 symptomatic, five asymptomatic carriers and three died during study. All originated North-East Romania. Median age at symptom onset was 45 years; median death 51 years. had cardiac involvement, including changes biomarkers (mean...
Provenance trials provide a valuable opportunity to evaluate the impact of extreme events on growth and wood properties. In this study, we have evaluated 81 Norway spruce provenances, tested in three provenance established Romanian Carpathians 1972. The response drought provenances – resistance, recovery, resilience, relative has been examined, as well relationship between climate growth, correlations traits, coordinates origin resilience indices. each trial, there were significant...
Abstract Rationale: Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a rare complication of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) during thrombolytic therapy. We report case STEMI occurring 40 minutes after therapy for AIS and discuss the possible mechanisms therapeutic approaches. Patient concerns: A 87-year-old woman with history arterial hypertension was admitted onset right-sided limb weakness 2 hours before arrival at emergency department. Forty intravenous recombinant tissue...
Provenance trials provide a valuable opportunity to evaluate the impact of extreme events on growth and wood properties. In this study, we have evaluated 81 Norway spruce provenances, tested in three provenance established Romanian Carpathians 1972. The response drought provenances has been examined using following tree resilience indices: resistance, recovery, resilience, relative resilience. relationship between climate growth, correlations traits, coordinates origin indices were also...

Abstract Background The presence of small mobile masses on the ventricular side aortic valves in absence valvular regurgitation and signs systemic inflammation has been previously described as marantic endocarditis is now referred to nonbacterial thrombotic (NBTE). It thought be associated with endothelial dysfunction procoagulative status, case acute decompensated heart failure (HF). Case description We present a series three male patients, similar clinical characteristics, who were...
Symptomatic long QT syndrome in pediatric patients is a life-threatening condition. Sometimes, this pathology can be misdiagnosed and erroneously managed as generalized epilepsy due to similar clinical manifestations. The presented case discusses 13-year-old female patient with since the age of 4, admitted for two episodes resuscitated cardiac arrest torsades de pointes ventricular fibrillation. final diagnosis congenital was established patient's high-risk profile future events, implantable...
Black pine (Pinus nigra) is a widely distributed tree species across southern Europe and Asia Minor. This article summarizes dendroclimatological study of subannual P. nigra ring width conducted during an international summer course “Tree Rings, Climate, Natural Resources, Human Interaction” in 2022. Increment cores were collected from 15 young (oldest 105 years) trees the Araç Forest District Kastamonu Province, Turkey. Site chronologies earlywood (EW) latewood (LW) developed to investigate...
Abstract Introduction Splenic abcess represents a rare complication of left-sided infective endocarditis. Unlike splenic infarction, which is more benign condition, requires rapid diagnosis and treatment as its course can be fatal. We present the case 52- year old male, with diabetes hypertension, admitted for shortness breath fever in past two months. Clinical examination revealed respiratory distress, tachypnea, diastolic murmur on left sternal border. Baseline laboratory investigations...
Abstract Introduction Left ventricular non-compaction is a rare form of cardiomyopathy charactherized by the presence two layered wall- thinner epicardial layer and an inner, non-compacted with prominent trabeculations associated deep, intratrabecular recesses that communicate left ventricle cavity. Clinical manifestations vary in severity, including symptoms heart failure, thromboembolic events or arrhythmias. (LV) dysfunction leads to tethering mitral apparatus cause for secondary...
Abstract Background Transcatheter valve replacement (TAVR ) is currently the optimal treatment for patients with severe aortic stenosis who are considered to have an intermediate high operative risk surgical intervention. Intramural hematoma secondary balloon-expandable TAVR a poorly reported complication unknown outcome. Among factors associated this advanced age, female gender, bulky calcifications, significant basal hypertrophy and prothesis oversizing. Case report We case of 84 year old...
<p>European silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) is among the most important forestry species in Europe. In Romanian Carpathians, it covers about 5% of forests area and almost two-thirds its distribution located Eastern which southeastern edge Europe.<br>The recent climate change scenarios for Europe suggest increases mean annual temperature 1-4 °C by end this century (Meinshausen et al. 2011). context global warming, populations living at will be first...
Abstract Mechanical complications post ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are life-threating events, that require rapid recognition and appropriate management. Clinical diagnosis, considering high index of suspicion bedside echocardiography should be considered in all STEMI patients Despite the overall decrease incidence cardiac rupture (CR) secondary to context early revascularization wide availability primary PCI, CR has still an unacceptable mortality. Purpose To provide...
