Foreign body in urinary bladder is an unusual finding in urology emergency, which has always caused wide attention. In this case report, we presented a 28-year-old unmarried male who was admitted to the emergency room with magnetic balls in his bladder. An abdominal plain X ray showed metallic dense shadow in the pelvic region. The foreign body was removed under modified cystoscopy and 159 magnetic balls were detected. The patient was discharged without any surgical or postsurgical complications. Cystoscopy is a better option for dealing with a large number of magnetic balls in urinary bladder.

A review of natural materials that exhibit negative permittivity or permeability, including gaseous plasma, metals, superconductors, and ferromagnetic materials, is presented. It is shown that samples made of such materials can store large amount of the electric (magnetic) energy and create plasmonic resonators for certain values of permittivity, permeability, and dimensions. The electric and the magnetic plasmon resonances in spherical samples made of such materials are analyzed using rigorous electrodynamic methods, and the results of the analysis are compared to experimental data and to results obtained with other methods.

Article Synopsis
- Starfish saponins have been studied for their ability to deter predators and their cytolytic effects, suggesting these compounds play significant roles in their ecological interactions.
- Recent research focused on secondary metabolites from the starfish Asterias amurensis, hypothesizing they may harm marine fish eggs, specifically medaka, by separating and identifying two harmful oligoglycosides.
- The identified compounds showed strong lethality and caused severe developmental issues in medaka embryos, highlighting potential ecological impacts on species sharing habitats with starfish.
