Idiopathic intracranial hypertension in pregnancy: about a rare case

In this work, study report the case of a 23-year-old primigravidae, in whom an idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), formerly called pseudotumor cerebri, was diagnosed in the first trimester with visual field impairment, the management of which was similar to cases of benign intracranial hypertension in the general population. The parturient put under medical treatment with ophthalmological and obstetrical follow-up until 39 weeks of amenorrhea where she was cesarized for rescue of the visual prognosis. The objective of this work is to elucidate this pathology, caused by a defect of reabsorption of the CSF by the arachnoid plexus. The diagnosis is retained after elimination by radio-biological exploration of an infectious, tumor or traumatic etiology. Idiopathic intracranial hypertension has no impact on the evolution of pregnancy. In addition, the choice of delivery route is dependent on the patient's visual prognosis being brought into play

Analyse des pigments de la rhodophycée Gymnogongrus patens (J. Agardh) de la côte atlantique marocaine

Les pigments du carraghénophyte, Gymnogongrus patens ont été analysés sur des échantillons d’algues récoltées mensuellement pendant un cycle annuel, d’avril 2002 à mars 2003, sur la plage de Méhdia (Nord-Ouest de la côte atlantique marocaine). Les analyses pigmentaires durant cette période d’étude, montrent que les pigments phycobiliprotéiques présentent des variations saisonnières très marquées pour les R-phycocyanines (R-PE) et les Allophycocyanines (A-PC) et nettement moins importantes pour les R-phycoérytrines (R-PC), avec une dominance des R-PE sur les A-PC et les R-PC. Par contre les teneurs en Chlorophylle a (Chl.a) varient peu. Les taux les plus élevés en R-PE sont obtenus en octobre (2,83mg/g de matière fraîche). L’influence des facteurs physico-chimiques (température (T), salinité (S), nitrates (N) et phosphates (P)) sur l’évolution de la composition pigmentaire a été étudiée par des analyses quantitatives en composantes principales (ACP). Cette analyse montre que l’algue est très riche en A-PC, R-PC et R-PE pendant la saison automnale et hivernale alors qu'elle s'atténue au printemps et en été.Mots-clés : gymnogongrus patens, pigments, facteurs physicochimiques, ACP, côte atlantique marocaine

Study of Cu/In/Se/Se thin films prepared by the Stacked Elemental Layer (SEL) technique

CuInSe2 thin films have been grown on Corning glass and Si (100) substrates using stacked elemental layers (SEL) processing. The influence of substrate’s nature and substrate’s temperature were studied. X-ray diffraction and SEM measurements have shown that the films exhibit an excellent crystallinity and crystallize in a tetragonal structure. Scanning electron microscopy investigations have shown that the films consist in a structure with large grains in the range 80 – 200 nm. Increasing the deposition temperature from room temperature to 300 °C has lead to a change in the composition and morphology of the films. Characteristic peaks of the chalcopyrite structure such as (101), (211) and (311) were clearly observed for both layers upon annealing at 450°C as evidenced by X-ray diffraction study. The determined lattice parameters were a = 0.57725 (6) nm, b = 1.1621 (2) nm for sample prepared at room temperature and a = 0.57770 (4) nm, b = 1.1602 (1) nm for Ts = 300°C. The crystallographic structure of the CuInSe2 sample was analyzed by Rietveld analysis using X-ray powder diffraction data. UV-Vis-NIR Spectrophotometry was used to investigate the optical characteristics of different Cu/In/Se/Se thin layers in the spectral range between 300 – 2000 nm. The optical band-gap of our materials increases from 0.98 to 1.01 eV

La prise en charge d’un goitre compressif chez une femme enceinte

Introduction: Les médecins d'urgence reçoivent fréquemment des patients atteints d'une pathologie de la thyroïde. Cependant, il est rare que ces troubles mettent la vie du patient en danger. La compression des voies aériennes supérieures due à une augmentation du volume d'une tumeur bénigne de la thyroïde et peut nécessiter un traitement chirurgical urgent.But: rappeler les modalités de prise en charge d'un goitre chez une femme enceinte.Observation: nous rapportons un cas d'une femme enceinte qui a été admise pour un goitre compressif avec dyspnée laryngée, qui exigeait une thyroïdectomie totale en urgence.Conclusion: La thyroïdectomie urgente chez la femme enceinte peut être réalisée si on respecte les précautions nécessaires.Mots clés: goitre, grossesse, thyroïdectomie.Introduction: emergency physicians frequently encounter patients with thyroid disease. However, it is unusual for these thyroid disorders to create acute, life-threatening situations. Critical airway compression attributable to benign thyroid enlargement may occur suddenly and require urgent treatement.Aim: we recall making procedures in charge of a goiter in pregnant women.Case -report : We report a case of pregnant women who was admitted for compressive goiter with laryngeal dyspnea, which required emergency total thyroidectomy.Conclusion: Urgent thyroidectomy in pregnant women can be performed if we respect the precautions.Keywords: goiter, pregnancy, thyroidectomy

Lambing and mortality rate in Ouled-Djellal sheeps in Tebessa region-Algeria

The aim of this work is to study lamb births and mortalities in Algerian sheep Ouled Djellal breed distributed in different zones of Tébessa region, which is divided according to bioclimatic stage, staff in livestock and area agricultural vocation, into four distinct zones: northern (A, B), middle (C) and southern zone (D). During two years 2015-2016, birth numbers (BN) and mortality rates (MR) of 355 sheep flocks were recorded using a questionnaire. Concerning BN the total number was 21244 lambs representing a mean 59±31 per flock. No significant differences between the birth means of C and D (75±28 vs 83±30) were registered. Birth mean was significantly higher (P<0,05) in B (40±17) than A (29±10), when comparison with C and D, the births of A and B were highly significantly (P<0,001). According to (BN) the studied region were classified into 3 zone groups: (a) with high lambing rate (C, D); (b) with medium lambing rate (B); (c) with low lambing (A). In regard to mortality rates, the total rate was 24±6%. The (MR) in A (27±5%) was significantly higher (P<0,05) as compared to other zones (B) 24±4%, (C) 23±7% and (D) 22±4%. However, no significant differences between B, C and D were revealed. According to the results of (MR) the studied region was classified into two groups: (a) with low MR (C, D), (b) with high MR (A, B). Our result showed that zones influence the (BN) and (MR) in Tébessa region, and southern zones especially D seems the appropriate to practice breeding of Ouled Djellal breed

Vanishing spin alignment : experimental indication of triaxial 28Si+28Si\bf ^{28}Si + {^{28}Si} nuclear molecule

Fragment-fragment-$\gamma$ coincidences have been measured for $\rm ^{28}Si + {^{28}Si}$ at an energy corresponding to the population of a conjectured resonance in $^{56}$Ni. Fragment angular distributions as well as $\gamma$-ray angular correlations indicate that the spin orientations of the outgoing fragments are perpendicular to the orbital angular momentum. This differs from the $\rm ^{24}Mg+{^{24}Mg}$ and the $\rm ^{12}C+{^{12}C}$ resonances, and suggests two oblate $\rm ^{28}Si$ nuclei interacting in an equator-to-equator molecular configuration.Comment: 14 pages standard REVTeX file, 3 ps Figures -- Accepted for publication in Physical Review C (Rapid Communication
