A frequently utilized plasticizer is di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), considered a ubiquitous contaminant in the environment and reported to have severe impacts on animals. Although it disrupts the female reproductive system in mammals, little is known about how it effects on fish reproduction. The reproductive parameters of female adult koi carp (Cyprinus carpio) were investigated in this study subjected to environmentally relevant exposure of DEHP (1, 10 and 100 μg/L).

- Peer review is crucial for quality assurance in radiation therapy, especially in low-middle-income countries (LMIC), where there is a growing need to maintain care standards with advanced technologies.
- A pilot study conducted in four cancer centers in India evaluated a cloud-based e-Peer review system, where healthcare team members were trained to review treatment cases weekly, focusing on key clinical aspects.
- Over three months, 100 cases were reviewed, resulting in various changes being suggested, with contouring errors being the primary reason for major revisions, demonstrating the feasibility and importance of peer review in improving treatment quality before therapy starts.
Introduction: 24 % of abortion in Italy are repeated procedure. The cause of repeated abortion can be traced back to the inadequacy of the contraceptive counseling during the previous admission or to the adoption of an ineffective contraception method. This study aims to evaluate the Italian situation on the perceived quality of contraceptive counselling by patients undergoing abortion.

After 60 days of exposure, there was a significant decrease in the gonadosomatic index (GSI) of males exposed to 10 and 100 µg/L of DEHP. Histological analysis of the testes revealed impaired histoarchitecture, including inflammatory cells, intratubular vacuoles, and swollen seminiferous tubules in treatment groups.

- SOX2 disorders can lead to serious congenital conditions like anophthalmia-esophageal-genital syndrome and microphthalmia, with this study focusing on a specific case involving a chromosomal deletion in a 15-week fetus.* -
- The autopsy revealed multiple abnormalities including bilateral microphthalmia, facial deformities, brain swelling, and lung issues, indicating a complex interplay of malformations stemming from the genetic deletion.* -
- The findings suggest that the deletion affects the SOX2 gene, crucial for the development of the nervous system and organs, resulting in a range of abnormalities not previously documented in other cases.*
