Published: December 2011

Scrotal trauma accounts for less than 1% of all trauma-related injuries. Traumatic injuries of the epididymis are extremely rare.Here we report a rare case of hematoma of the epididymis, diagnosed with US, in a 10-year-old boy after a sport injury.

Obesity can change the immune microenvironment of adipose tissue and induce inflammation. This study is dedicated to exploring the internal mechanism by which different intensities of exercise reprogram the immune microenvironment of epididymal adipose tissue in nutritionally obese mice. C57BL/6J male obese mouse models were constructed by high-fat diet, which were respectively obese control group (OC), moderate intensity continuous exercise group (HF-M), high intensity continuous exercise group (HF-H) and high intensity intermittent exercise group (HF-T).

Bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disrupting chemical, is an environmental toxicant widely used in the production of polycarbonate plastics, epoxy resins and paints. Ganoderma lucidum (GDL) is a plant with biological activities widely used in Chinese medicine. The present study aims to determine the effects of GDL against testicular dysfunction in rats exposed to BPA.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate how electroacupuncture (EA) impacts the inflammatory response in the brains of obese rats, potentially revealing mechanisms for obesity improvement.
  • Male SD rats were divided into four groups (normal control, model, EA, sham-EA) and subjected to an 8-week high-fat diet to induce obesity; EA was applied to specific acupoints to measure various health indicators.
  • Results showed significant increases in body mass, inflammatory markers, and hypothalamic protein levels in the obesity model group, but also some elevated levels of anti-inflammatory markers following EA, indicating a potential therapeutic effect.

Article Synopsis
  • White adipose tissue (WAT) in mice can undergo a transformation known as "browning" when exposed to cold, resulting in the emergence of brown and beige adipocytes, which have distinct characteristics like dense mitochondria and multilocular lipid droplets.
  • Research aimed to analyze the changes in diffusion parameters (T2* values and anisotropy) in brown adipose tissue (BAT), inguinal WAT (iWAT), and epididymal WAT (epiWAT) after cold exposure compared to normal conditions.
  • The study revealed that T2* values in the control group’s epiWAT were significantly higher than in BAT and iWAT from the cold-exposed group, while specific eigenvalues showed
