Objective: Pigmentary posterior vitreous detachment (PVD), referred to as "black PVD," is a rare entity describing PVD along with pigment dispersion in the vitreous. There are a few case reports describing pigmentary PVD, yet the association between pigmentary PVD and uveal and optic disc tumors was not described before. The aim of this study was to report the clinical features of patients with pigmentary PVD associated with these tumors.

Ibsp knockout (Ibsp) mice exhibit defective alveolar bone formation, mineralization, and healing. We hypothesized BSP would rescue defective alveolar bone healing in a molar extraction model in Ibsp mice.

Methods: We investigated the association of COVID-19 testing with financial toxicity among individuals with a history of cancer from using cross-sectional data from the 2020 National Health Interview Survey. Multivariable logistic regression (MLR) analysis assessed associations between clinical and sociodemographic covariates with being unable to pay medical bills currently and having problems paying medical bills over the last 12 months.
Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is the most common type of bladder cancer presentation and is characterized by a varying probability of recurrence and progression. Sporadically, patients with NMIBC might also develop tumour metastases without any pathological evidence of muscle-invasive disease within the bladder, a condition known as metastatic NMIBC. In the published literature, this phenomenon is limited to several case reports and small reviews, with few data regarding the possible aetiologies.

- - The study aimed to assess how common undiagnosed iron deficiency is among women with endometriosis, finding that 53.4% had some form of iron deficiency and 13.5% had iron deficiency anemia.
- - It was observed that women with iron deficiency were more likely to experience heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), but a significant portion without HMB were still iron deficient.
- - The findings suggest that iron deficiency is often overlooked in these patients, indicating a need for further research on the potential benefits of iron therapy for improving symptoms and health.
