Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis (JHF) is a rare hereditary disease with an autosomal recessive transmission. JHF is characterized by papulonodular skin lesions, osteolytic bone lesions, flexural joint contractures, and gingival hyperplasia and usually diagnosed in infancy or early childhood. JHF is thought to be a disorder of collagen metabolism and characterized by homogenous amorphous eosinophilic material and fibrous tissue. We report the case of a 14-year-old male child with multiple papulonodular skin lesions, progressive flexion contractures of joints, and severe gingival hyperplasia, with a 10-year follow-up. Although the lesions were totally removed thrice during the last 10 years, they recurred rigorously.

Article Synopsis
- Soil and root samples were taken from bamboo plots in Georgia over three years to monitor plant-parasitic nematodes; discoloration and stunted growth were observed in roots despite no visible symptoms aboveground.
- Cyst nematodes (Heterodera spp.) were detected with varying population densities across the years, confirming their presence through the transplantation of healthy bamboo into infested soil, which resulted in young cysts forming in the roots after three months.
- Detailed morphological and molecular analyses identified the nematode species, providing specific measurements and descriptions of the second-stage juveniles and cysts, indicating their characteristics such as body shape, size, and coloration.

Osteoarthritis, a degenerative disease of articular cartilage and the leading cause of disability, is preceded by acute cartilage injury in a significant proportion of cases. Current auto- and allograft interventions are limited by supply and variability in therapeutic efficacy, prompting interest in tissue engineering solutions. Cell sheet tissue engineering, a scaffold-free regenerative technique, has shown promise in preclinical and clinical trials across various cell types and diseases.
