This review discusses recent advances in imaging techniques for monitoring stem cells in vivo and reports no new results; it suggests directions for future development in endoscopic molecular imaging tools.

This study utilized ultrasound biomicroscopy to evaluate the anterior chamber in angle closure glaucoma patients, revealing that the anterior chamber angle is wider on the downside than the upside and identifying important parameters for potential laser surgery.

This report discusses a potentially underdiagnosed form of multisystem Langerhans cell histiocytosis in infants, demonstrating the use of thymic sonography for staging, highlighting a case where thymic and cutaneous involvement was confirmed, and suggesting thymic ultrasound may aid in better diagnosis and management of LCH.

This review evaluates recent advances from 2016 to 2022 in the use of microbubbles and nanobubbles, highlighting their potential for safer diagnostic and therapeutic applications in radiology and medicine without the side effects associated with traditional methods.

Doctors used a special blood sampling technique to diagnose a woman's rare ovarian tumor that was producing male hormones.

More biopsy cores and MRI before biopsy can improve prostate cancer detection.

This case study reported a successful surgical excision of two cephalocele lesions in a female neonate, resulting in uneventful recovery and appropriate neurodevelopment during a seven-month follow-up.

This review discusses PCOD's pathophysiology, clinical features, and management strategies but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and multidisciplinary management.

In this study, researchers emphasized the escalating burden of peripheral arterial disease in India due to increasing diabetes prevalence, compounded by a shortage and urban concentration of vascular surgeons, necessitating that general surgeons enhance their diagnostic skills.

The conclusion is to diagnose PCOS with just hyperandrogenism and irregular periods, and treat with lifestyle changes and basic medications.

An 81-year-old woman's severe male hormone symptoms were caused by an ovarian tumor, which was treated with surgery.

Testicular microlithiasis may increase the risk of testicular cancer and patients with it should be closely monitored.

This case report describes a 64-year-old postmenopausal woman with hirsutism due to a rare case of bilateral diffuse ovarian Leydig cell hyperplasia, leading to normalized testosterone levels and improved glycaemic control following surgery.

This article discusses the complex aetiology, diagnostic criteria, and challenges in diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome, but does not report new clinical findings.

This case report highlights Leydig cell hyperplasia as a rare cause of increased testosterone and postmenopausal hirsutism, resolved after bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in a 64-year-old woman.

This review discusses the evaluation and management of breast pain, or mastalgia, highlighting non-pharmacologic therapies and the limited role of surgical interventions, but reports no new clinical findings.
