Non-papillary serous cystadenoma of the epididymis associated with infected hydrocele of the testis: A case report.

A 50-year-old Japanese man with enlargement of the right scrotum was presented to our hospital. Preoperative examination confirmed a multilocular cyst with septa attached to the testis. Radical orchiectomy was performed.

Simulation of optical radiation force distribution in interference patterns and necessary conditions for chiral structure formation on dielectrics.

A chiral structure is formed by the optical radiation force induced by a circularly polarized light that has spin angular momentum; chiral structures are expected to be used for light control devices and molecular chirality discrimination devices. In this paper, we clarify the relationship between the differences in the distributions of the optical radiation force and the possibility of formation of chiral structures. We first simulate the optical radiation force distribution in the case of a Gaussian beam that successfully forms a chiral structure.

Super-strong magnetic field-dominated ion beam dynamics in focusing plasma devices.

High energy density physics is the field of physics dedicated to the study of matter and plasmas in extreme conditions of temperature, densities and pressures. It encompasses multiple disciplines such as material science, planetary science, laboratory and astrophysical plasma science. For the latter, high energy density states can be accompanied by extreme radiation environments and super-strong magnetic fields.

Relationship between Restless legs syndrome associated symptoms and presence of depression during pregnancy.

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is associated with depression in the general population. Although depression can lead to adverse events during the perinatal period, the association between RLS and depression remains under debate. Thus, we examined the association between depression and RLS, including RLS-associated symptoms, in pregnant women.

Comparison of speech perception lists used to evaluate Japanese single syllable hearing.

Objective: In Japan, the 57S and 67S single syllable lists have been used to test speech perception in cochlear implant (CI) users. However, due to advances in implants and processors, these lists have become too simple for CI users. In 2019, the Japan Otological Society created a new list, referred to as the iCI2004.
