The solitary intraperitoneal fibrous tumor is a rare lesion, almost exclusively benign. We report on three cases with different ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings, related to the fibrous and/or cellular histological composition of the tumor. Because of the minimal, but real, possibility of a recurrence after the surgical intervention, a follow-up by radiological imaging is recommended.

- * It describes key imaging characteristics: ultrasound shows large, irregular, cystic tumors without calcifications, while MRI highlights irregular borders and necrotic areas, with diffusion-weighted imaging indicating restricted diffusion.
- * The article concludes that certain imaging features allow differentiation between malignant uterine sarcomas and benign myomas, which is crucial for planning appropriate surgical interventions while avoiding risks like intraperitoneal morcellation.

It has been widely established that neural stem cells (NSCs) exist in the adult mammalian brain. The area postrema (AP) and the ependymal cell layer of the central canal (CC) in the medulla were recently identified as NSC niches. There are two types of NSCs: astrocyte-like cells in the AP and tanycyte-like cells in the CC.

Introduction: Physical activity is recommended as an alternative treatment for depression. Myokines, which are secreted from skeletal muscles during physical activity, play an important role in the skeletal muscle-brain axis. Musclin, a newly discovered myokine, exerts physical endurance, however, the effects of musclin on emotional behaviors, such as depression, have not been evaluated.
