Tuberculosis (TB) prevalence has increased over the past few decades, especially in the developing world. The genitourinary tract is the most common extra-pulmonary location of TB. Symptoms of genitourinary TB are often vague. Diagnosis of genitourinary TB requires a high level of clinical suspicion. Healthcare providers must be familiar with genitourinary TB imaging features on different imaging modalities and how to correlate these findings with urine studies and histologic analysis to definitively diagnose genitourinary TB.

The Lepidopteran pest Trichoplusia ni and the parasitoid wasp Trichogramma brassicae represent a fascinating biological system, important for sustainable agricultural practices but challenging to observe. We present a nondestructive method based on micro-CT scanning technology (CT: computed tomography) for visualizing the internal parts of caterpillar embryos and of emerging parasitoids from infected eggs. Traditional methods of microscopic observation of the opaque egg contents require staining or dissection.

Increasing evidence implicates disruptions in testicular fatty acid metabolism as a contributing factor in non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), a severe form of male infertility. However, the precise mechanisms linking fatty acid metabolism to NOA pathogenesis have not yet been fully elucidated. Multi-omics analyses, including microarray analysis, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), and metabolomics, were utilized to investigate disruptions in fatty acid metabolism associated with NOA using data from public databases.
