Introduction: The American Urological Association (AUA) recommends urology referral and surgery for undescended testicle (UDT) before 18 months of age, but it has been shown that many referrals occur later, influenced by social factors.
Objective: This study aims to identify key social factors that impact UDT referral timing and appropriateness.
Study Design: Pediatric patients referred to our institution for UDT management from 2018 to 2023 were analyzed.

The cerebellum is a subcortical structure tucked underneath the cerebrum that contains the majority of neurons in the brain, despite its small size. While it has received less attention in the study of brain asymmetries than the cerebrum, structural asymmetries in the cerebellum have been found in cerebellar volume that mirror cerebral asymmetries. Larger cerebellar structures have been reported on the right compared to the left, either for the whole cerebellar hemisphere or the anterior part of the cerebellum, with the latter accompanied by a left increase in the posterior cerebellum.

Brain asymmetries are a distinctive feature of Homo sapiens and are associated with key evolutionary functions including language and handedness. Nonetheless, differences between humans and apes could be just a matter of degree and size and not the expression of unique traits of our species. In this chapter, I introduce paleoneurology and the study of brain morphology in fossil hominids, reviewing the anatomic factors that can influence the main asymmetries of the endocranial cavity (cortical volumes, sulcal patterns, and craniovascular features).

Objectives: To analyse individual VV-Qmax plots based on multiple home uroflowmetries and compare these with cross-sectional nomograms.
Methods: Healthy volunteers (16-69 years) without LUTS were asked to take a Minze Homeflow device home to register 25 uroflows. Participants reporting urinary tract disorders, malignancy or medication affecting bladder function were excluded.

Objectives: This article evaluates the marginal and internal gap, interfacial volume, and fatigue behavior in computer-aided design-computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) restorations with different designs (crowns or endocrowns) made from lithium disilicate-based ceramic (LD, IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar AG) or resin composite (RC, Tetric CAD, Ivoclar AG).
Materials And Methods: Simplified LD and RC crowns (-C) and endocrowns (-E) were produced ( = 10) using CAD-CAM technology, through scanning (CEREC Primescan, Dentsply Sirona) and milling (CEREC MC XL, Dentsply Sirona), and then adhesively bonded to fiberglass-reinforced epoxy resin.
