Eccrine syringofibroadenoma (ESFA) is a rare adnexal tumour of eccrine ductal proliferation. A 50 year old treated case of leprosy presented with a chronic non healing ulcer of 5 years duration on the deformity laden right foot. Multiple verrucous papules and plaques were seen surrounding the ulcer which showed histopathological findings consistent with ESFA. Although ESFA constitutes a rare association with leprosy, considering the load of treated cases in our country and elsewhere, it may represent an under-reported entity which requires more attention in the post elimination era.

Previous work has suggested that problems with placental development might lead to congenital heart defects. However, little is known about the mechanisms that might underpin this relationship between the placenta and the heart. A new paper in Development leverages conditional mouse knockouts to explore this link in detail.

Background: Impairments in language processing in schizophrenia (ScZ) are a central aspect of the disorder but the underlying pathophysiology mechanisms are unclear. In the current study, we tested the hypothesis that neural oscillations are impaired during speech tracking in early-stage ScZ and in participants at clinical high-risk for psychosis (CHR-P).
Method: Magnetoencephalography (MEG) was used in combination with source reconstructed time-series to examine delta and theta-band entrainment during continuous speech.

Article Synopsis
- - The placenta is essential for pregnancy, handling oxygen and nutrient exchange, with complications like fetal growth restriction linked to its vascular structure issues, emphasizing the need for early detection of placental health.
- - Current computational models of placental vasculature lack control over crucial features like branching angles, which are necessary for predicting dysfunction, leading to the development of a new generative algorithm that allows for customizable placental vascular modeling.
- - This novel algorithm is based on physiological principles and uses key metrics to create realistic placental structures, enhancing research into how variations in structure can affect placental function and health.

Hugo Lorenz Obwegeser was a pioneering Austrian surgeon whose contributions profoundly transformed the field of maxillofacial surgery. His groundbreaking work marked a pivotal turning point, enabling more sophisticated and effective corrections of facial deformities. Obwegeser revolutionized his area of expertise by introducing innovative osteotomies of the mandible and maxilla, which became foundational techniques for addressing facial asymmetries.

Article Synopsis
- - Low field fetal MRI (0.55T) offers advantages like fewer imaging artifacts and accessibility for larger patients, but lacks automated processing tools for broader clinical adoption.
- - The study introduces the FOREST pipeline, which effectively analyzes ten fetal organs using advanced imaging techniques and has been validated for quality.
- - Findings show a significant relationship between T2* values of most organs and gestational age, suggesting that low field MRI can provide valuable insights for normal and pathological fetal assessments.
