AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Objective: We report an unusual case of extensive xanthogranulomatous orchitis (XGO) in association with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus.
Clinical Presentation And Intervention: A 65-year-old Kuwaiti man with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus presented with a painful left testicular swelling of 1 year duration. Testicular tumor markers were normal. Scrotal ultrasonography showed a mass lesion of mixed echotexture, which almost replaced the testicular parenchyma. Left-sided orchiectomy was performed with the clinical diagnosis of testicular neoplasia. Subsequent examination revealed the diagnosis of XGO, and the patient is well 2 years after the operation.
Conclusion: Extensive tumorous XGO associated with diabetes mellitus has not been previously reported. We offer this case to highlight the implied role of poorly controlled diabetes mellitus in the pathogenesis of XGO.

Background: Low-volume hypertonic solutions, such as half-molar lactate (LAC), may be a potential treatment used for fluid resuscitation. This study aimed to evaluate the underlying cardiovascular effects and mechanisms of LAC infusion compared to sodium-matched hypertonic sodium chloride (SAL).
Methods: Eight healthy male participants were randomized in a controlled, single-blinded, crossover study.

Background And Aims: Heart failure (HF) is an imminent global health problem. Yet established screening algorithms for asymptomatic pre-HF, allowing for early and effective preventive interventions, are largely lacking. The HERZCHECK trial, conducted in structurally underserved rural regions of North-Eastern Germany, aims to close this gap by evaluating the feasibility, diagnostic efficacy, and cost-effectiveness of a fully mobile, telemedically-supervised screening approach, combining cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and laboratory testing as central elements.

Digital health interventions have emerged as a promising approach for patient care. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review of pharmacist-led digital health interventions for patients with diabetes. The PubMed database was used to select randomized controlled trials that assess the effectiveness of digital health interventions on clinical outcomes among patients with type 1 and 2 diabetes from January 2005 to May 2024.

Background/aims: The prognostic importance of changes in vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) parameters, liver stiffness measurement (LSM), and controlled attenuation parameter (CAP), in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is unknown.
Methods: A prospective cohort of 288 patients underwent 2 VCTE exams at least 2 years apart, and the relative percentage changes in LSM and CAP were calculated. Outcomes were the occurrence of any liver-related events (LREs), cardiovascular events (CVEs), and all-cause mortality.
