Congenital candidemia sepsis is a serious condition especially for the prematurity. Early recognition is always not the scenario and this leads to high morbidity and mortality. Twin pregnancy complicates the problems further. This report presents a case of congenital candidiasis in a twin preterm and literatures review of five twin pairs with the same scenario. In conclusion, for twin prematurity, if one is suspected to have invasive candidiasis, both of them should receive a full course of antifungal therapy through the intravenous route.

In large animal models of bone fracture repair, postmortem torsional testing is commonly used to assess healing biomechanics. Bending and axial tests are physiologically relevant, but much less commonly performed. Virtual torsional testing using image-based finite element models has been validated to postmortem bench tests, but its predictive value for capturing whole-bone mechanics and fracture healing quality under other physiologically relevant loading modes has not yet been established.

A rare spontaneous triplet heterotopic pregnancy occurred in a patient using emergency contraception. This highlights the need to consider heterotopic pregnancy in differential diagnoses for patients presenting with abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding, even with detected intrauterine pregnancies, especially after failed emergency contraception, necessitating thorough laboratory and ultrasonographic diagnostic work-up.
