After individual quotas were imposed in 1990, the fishery for Jasus edwardsii in the Gisborne area showed continuing declines in catch and catch rate to 1993, and the total quota could not be caught in this area. There were few legal-sized but many sublegal-sized lobsters. Pots caused mortality of sublegal lobsters through handling, pot-related Octopus predation, and thefts from commercial pots. The industry, in conjunction with recreational fishers and Maori, developed a scheme to address these problems. The aim was to increase landed value to compensate for quota reductions, and to do this by landing more lobsters in winter (when prices were higher) and landing smaller lobsters (which had a higher unit price). A shortened season was designed to reduce pot-related mortality. Part of the scheme—a proposal to reduce the minimum legal size of male lobsters—caused controversy. However, the package was evaluated with a simple model and then accepted by the Minister of Fisheries. Results were substantially increased catch rates since 1993, a successful shift to a winter fishery, and a shift in length frequencies toward larger sizes. A simple size-structured model fitted to the fishery data and used to evaluate future management options is also described.

Hyponatraemia is the commonest electrolyte abnormality, and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) is the most frequent underlying pathophysiology. Hyponatraemia is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and as such appropriate treatment is essential. Treatment options for SIADH include fluid restriction, demeclocycline, urea, frusemide and saline infusion, all of which have their limitations. The introduction of the vasopressin-2 receptor antagonists has allowed clinicians to specifically target the underlying pathophysiology of SIADH. Initial studies have shown good efficacy and safety profiles in the treatment of mild to moderate hyponatraemia. However, studies assessing the efficacy and safety of these agents in acute severe symptomatic hyponatraemia are awaited. Furthermore, the cost of these agents at present may limit their use.

Osteoporosis and bone fractures are frequently overlooked complicationsof androgen deprivation therapy in men with nonmetastaticprostate cancer. All such patients should have their bone mineraldensity (BMD) monitored and be offered preventive measures,such as calcium and vitamin D supplementation; patients withlow BMD should be offered treatment. Several agents, includingbisphosphonates, are available (although this use is currently offlabel),and upcoming treatments, such as denosumab and toremifene,have shown promise in reducing fracture risk in these patients.L’ostéoporose et les fractures osseuses sont des complications souventnégligées du traitement antiandrogénique chez les hommesatteints d’un cancer de la prostate non métastatique. La teneurminérale des os de ces patients devrait être surveillée, et des mesurespréventives, comme la prise de suppléments de calcium et de vita -mine D, devraient être offertes. Les patients présentant une faibleteneur minérale des os devraient se voir offrir un traitement approprié.Plusieurs agents, y compris des bisphosphonates, sont offertssur le marché (quoique cette indication ne soit pas officiellementapprouvée à l’heure actuelle), et des traitements en cours d’étude,comme le dénosumab et le torémifène, se sont révélés prometteursdans la réduction du risque de fracture chez ces patients.

Central retinal artery occlusion is a form of an acute stroke in the eye and is regarded as an ophthalmic emergency.[1,2] This paper presents a case of Central retinal artery occlusion in an 18-year-old pregnant female who presented with sudden loss of vision in her right eye and was diagnosed with central retinal artery occlusion. The aim of this paper is to illustrate the clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment but mainly focusing on the underlying etiologies. Recent literature shows no reported cases explaining the possibility of retinal artery occlusion occurring in a young pregnant female who is otherwise free of any medical conditions.[3] Due to the serious consequence, limited knowledge and treatment in the field of unexplained retinal occlusion in pregnancy; it’s encouraged that more efforts are invested in research and reporting cases for a better understanding of the possible and future management options and preventative strategies of central retinal occlusions.
