Unlabelled: Quantitative understanding of mitochondrial heterogeneity is necessary for elucidating the precise role of these multifaceted organelles in tumor cell development. We demonstrate an early mechanistic role of mitochondria in initiating neoplasticity by performing quantitative analyses of structure-function of single mitochondrial components coupled with single cell transcriptomics. We demonstrate that the large Hyperfused-Mitochondrial-Networks (HMNs) of keratinocytes promptly get converted to the heterogenous Small-Mitochondrial-Networks (SMNs) as the stem cell enriching dose of the model carcinogen, TCDD, depolarizes mitochondria.

Background: A discrepancy between the true and measured value of stretched penile length (SPL) may be a result of errors that can either be systematic or random. Hence, it becomes important to focus on the quality of measurements to prevent any iatrogenic harm to the patients.

Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the magnitude of intra- and interobserver variations in the measurement of SPL with the SPLINT technique.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the genetic underpinnings of congenital pouch colon (CPC), highlighting the lack of research in this area despite extensive clinical documentation.
  • A total of 20 cases of CPC and 52 controls were analyzed, revealing multiple genetic variants in 11 significant genes linked to critical functions like mucosal barrier integrity and colonic muscle development.
  • The results suggest that validating these findings with larger, diverse clinical samples and functional studies is essential to understand the genetic factors contributing to CPC better.

Introduction: Transient osteoporosis of the hip (TOH) presents with symptoms such as groin pain, discomfort, and the presence of bone edema detected on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. We have observed an increase in the occurrence of TOH in patients following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Case Report: In this series, we present four cases of TOH that developed after COVID-19 infection.
