Following sun exposure, the patient had developed distal onycholysis surrounded by a hyperpigmented zone. He was diagnosed with doxycycline-induced photo-onycholysis.

Erectile dysfunction(ED), a prevalent condition within the male genitourinary system, significantly impairs the quality of life for affected men. Although certain inflammatory indicators, such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR), systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI), and systemic immune-inflammation index(SII), have been linked to ED, the correlation with other markers and their impact on survival outcomes in ED patients remain largely unexplored. This research aims to investigate the correlation between inflammatory biomarkers derived from a complete blood cell count(CBC) and the occurrence of ED.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the main fragment fracture type (oblique or transverse) on the union rate of femoral shaft fractures.
Methods: Patients who underwent surgical treatment with an antegrade intramedullary nail for femoral shaft fracture (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen / Orthopaedic Trauma Association; AO/OTA type 32 type B or C) between January 2009 and March 2021 were included in this study. Patients with oblique fractures of the two main fragments on radiographs immediately after surgery were classified into the oblique fracture group.
