Since calcified nodule of the testis is seen very rarely, its etiology and diagnostic approach are not fully known. There have been a few cases reported in the literature. The objective of this study was to review the literature and report the case of a 30-year-old patient, who applied to our clinic due to a suspicious stiffness in his testis and underwent partial orchiectomy.

Clinical Outcomes of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Using Drug-Coated Balloons for De Novo Coronary Lesions With Eruptive Calcified Nodules as Detected by Optical Coherence Tomography.

Background: The clinical outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using drug-coated balloons (DCB) for de novo coronary artery lesions with eruptive calcified nodules remain unclear.
Methods And Results: This retrospective study analyzed the long-term outcomes of 308 consecutive patients (389 lesions) treated with PCI using DCB under optical coherence tomography guidance for de novo coronary artery lesions between September 2018 and November 2020. Patients were classified into 2 groups: those with an eruptive calcified nodule in the culprit lesion (CN group) and those without (non-CN group).
Pre-patellar Tumoral Calcinosis of Knee with Intra-articular Extension: An Index Case Study.

Introduction: Tumoral calcinosis is a rare hereditary condition characterized by the deposition of calcium phosphate and hydroxyapatite in periarticular soft tissues. First described by Giard and Duret in 1898 and later detailed by Inclan in 1943, this condition has often been confused with other forms of periarticular calcification. Tumoral calcinosis predominantly affects young males and is typically found around major joints, such as the shoulder, elbow, hip, ankle, and wrist.

Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic value of different subtypes of non-punctate echogenic foci in thyroid malignancy.
Methods: Retrospective research of 342 thyroid nodules with calcification was performed. The echogenic foci were divided into punctate echogenic foci (type I) and non-punctate echogenic foci (type II), and type II were further divided into four subtypes: macrocalcification (type IIa), continuous peripheral calcification (type IIb), discontinuous peripheral calcification (type IIc) and isolated calcification (type IId).

Backgroud: Hypoparathyroidism (hypoPT) is characterized by acute and chronic complications due to insufficient parathyroid hormone (PTH) production or action. Several management guidelines have been developed, but mostly based on evidence from Western countries. Data from Eastern countries have not been systematically compared with those from Western countries.

Background: Lutein, a carotenoid, exhibits various biological activities such as maintaining the health of the eye, skin, heart, and bone. Recently, we found that lutein has dual roles in suppressing bone resorption and promoting bone formation. In this study, we examined the effects of lutein in a disuse-induced osteoporosis model using hindlimb-unloaded (HLU) mice.
