“…Individual case reports, including the patient in this report, have described 29 women who developed pityriasis rosea during pregnancy and have delivered healthy newborns (Table 3) [6,12–14,23,24]. Indeed, the literature shows a ratio of 6:5 with regards to healthy newborns versus newborns with adverse events being delivered to women with gestational pityriasis rosea.…”

“…However, associations with human herpes virus (HSV)-6 and HSV-7 have been observed [14–18]. Several studies have found that patients with pityriasis rosea have higher levels of HSV-6 and HSV-7 detected in their skin, suggesting that infection by these viruses may have a causal effect on the development of pityriasis rosea.…”

“…Our review of the literature, including the patient in this report, discovered 54 women who developed pityriasis rosea during their pregnancy (Table 2 [6,14,22] and Table 3 [6,12–14,23,24]). The onset of pityriasis rosea ranged from week 8 of gestation (3 patients: cases 7 and 8 in Table 2 and case 14 in Table 3) to week 32 (1 patient: case 7 in Table 3).…”

Background:Pityriasis rosea is a papulosquamous disease. It may occur during pregnancy; in this setting, it has occasionally been associated with adverse outcomes.Purpose:A woman who developed pityriasis rosea at the beginning of her eighth week of gestation is described. The outcomes in newborns delivered by pregnant women who developed pityriasis rosea during gestation are summarized.Method:A 28-year-old woman developed pityriasis rosea during her eighth week of pregnancy. Her husband had pityriasis rosea two months earlier. PubMed was searched for the following terms: conjugal, craniosynostosis, newborn, pityriasis, pregnancy, rosea, sagittal, spouse. The papers were reviewed and the references cited were evaluated.Results:Our patient delivered a healthy male infant after 41 weeks of gestation. He had normal weight, height, and Apgar scores. Isolated sagittal craniosynostosis was diagnosed and was successfully treated at nine weeks after birth without complications.Conclusion:Several retrospective studies have investigated the possibility of adverse outcomes in infants born to women who developed pityriasis rosea during pregnancy, such as stillbirth, low gestational weight, hypotonia, and premature delivery. However, there are also reports of healthy newborns in women who have had pityriasis rosea during gestation. Our patient carried the fetus one week post-term and delivered a healthy boy via C-section; isolated sagittal craniosynostosis was later diagnosed and successfully repaired. The occurrence of craniosynostosis in a woman who developed pityriasis rosea during her first trimester of pregnancy may be two coincidental events.

Assessing nutrient loading from reclaimed water irrigation using the chemical marker iohexol

2020

Reclaimed water irrigation is a beneficial practice that could worsen nitrogen impairment of surrounding waterbodies. Estimating this contribution requires development of a suitable chemical marker. Toward that end, reuse effluents throughout Florida analyzed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry or high‐resolution atomic mass identified the radiographic contrast medium iohexol as a marker unique to reclaimed water. Because iohexol may be subject to biodegradation during subsurface transport or photolability during surficial flow, this study measured iohexol degradation from solar insolation and its stability relative to nitrate during soil transport for inclusion within a mass balance calculation for a nitrogen impaired surface water in Naples, Florida. In this application, the reuse irrigation fractional volumetric flow contribution was ≤7% of the flow to the impaired waterbody. Subsurface flow was not considered because column experiments with local soil demonstrated preferential denitrification over iohexol biodegradation. Additional studies are needed to further demonstrate the potential merit of this approach in different regions.

Emerging contaminants (ECs) are a category of relatively newly identified chemicals lacking regulatory status and generally of synthetic origin. ECs encompass a range of substances, including pharmaceuticals, antibiotics, antidiabetics, pesticides, personal care products (PCPs), and endocrine‐disrupting chemicals. ECs are frequently found in surface water, groundwater, and wastewater. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are often identified as sources of these chemicals. ECs enter wastewater through improper disposal or usage of consumer goods, agricultural runoff, toxic spillage, and prescription drug excretion in urine and feces, as the human body metabolizes a fraction of administered drugs. The presence of ECs in aquatic environments poses a significant threat, as they can potentially harm both the ecosystem and humans, even at low concentrations. For a comprehensive understanding of the impacts of ECs, it is essential for researchers to investigate the occurrence, sources, fate, and transport of these substances in wastewater. This review investigates the origins and ultimate fate of these ECs, examining their interactions with the surrounding aquatic environments. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the characteristics and behaviors of ECs through an in‐depth analysis. This review discusses treatment techniques and processes and examines potential pathways for future advancement.
