- - Nanomaterials, especially cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO NPs), are widely used in various industries, but concerns are rising about their environmental impacts due to increased production and use in consumer products.
- - This study examined the effects of three types of CeO NPs on zebrafish embryos using the Fish Embryo Toxicity test, finding no lethal or sub-lethal effects on development but an increase in the EROD biomarker in treated larvae.
- - The results showed a significant difference in EROD expression (p < 0.001) at a 1-mg/l concentration compared to controls, indicating the need for further research to clarify the potential effects of CeO NPs and their applications.*
Background: Phimosis is the inability to retract the preputium downward over the glans penis. Despite the various techniques of preputial plasty described in literature, the most performed surgical treatment is still the conventional circumcision.
Methods: In this paper we retrospectively reviewed data of a homogeneous population of 36 consecutive adult patients who underwent phimosis correction by circumcsion with dissection of the Deep Fascia.
