Noise was considered an environmental stressor causing a wide range of health effects such as acoustic, cardiovascular, nervous, and endocrine systems. The present study was performed to examine the effects of a repeated noise exposure on adrenal gland and heart tissue. The results showed that exposure to moderate intensity sound (70 dB[A]) causes time-dependent changes in the morphological structure of the adrenal cortex that involve disarrangement of cells and modification in thickness of the different layers of the adrenal gland. The experiment revealed important changes depending on exposure duration in the morphological structure of heart tissue that causes irreversible cell damage leading to cell death or necrosis.

Rathke cleft cyst with squamous metaplasia and activating mutations of mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling: illustrative case.
J Neurosurg Case Lessons

Department of Neurological Surgery, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, California.
Background: Rathke cleft cysts (RCCs) are benign sellar/suprasellar lesions that result from mucin-secreting vestigial remnants within the pars intermedia of the pituitary gland. When symptomatic, they can present with retro-orbital headaches, visual field defects, and/or pituitary dysfunction.
Observations: A 35-year-old female presented with subacute retro-orbital headache, right ptosis, and blurred vision.

Background: Endometriosis, a prevalent chronic gynecological condition, is frequently associated with infertility and pelvic pain. Despite numerous studies indicating a correlation between epigenetic regulation and endometriosis, its precise genetic etiology remains elusive. Methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14), a crucial component of the N6-methyladenosine (mA) RNA methyltransferase complex and an RNA binding scaffold, is known to play a pivotal role in various human diseases.

Background: Oligoprogression (OP) is common in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC) treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). This study aims to assess the benefit and the safety profile of ablative radiotherapy (RT) for OP in mNSCLC treated with pembrolizumab in first-line setting.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed records of all consecutive mNSCLC patients who underwent treatment with pembrolizumab (+/- chemotherapy) in first-line setting and developed an OP treated with ablative RT while continuing pembrolizumab, in a French Hospital from 2019 to 2022.

Endocrinology is the study of hormones and the endocrine glands that are responsible for maintaining homeostasis in the human body. Recently, there has been a surge of interest in the development of novel radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in endocrinology. This comprehensive review explores the latest advances in novel radiopharmaceuticals with applications in the diagnosis and treatment of different endocrine disorders, including thyroid, adrenal, and pituitary disorders, as well as neuroendocrine tumours.

Lung cancer (LC) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality. Nearly 50% of patients with primary LC have distant metastases at the time of initial diagnosis. LC usually metastasizes from the lungs to the liver, adrenal glands, brain, and bone, but rarely to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
