In a 30-year-old man, the movement of a loose body between the knee joint and a popliteal cyst caused difficulty in locating the loose body. The first roentgenogram showed a posteromedial opacity, which was thought to be a sesamoid. On a subsequent film, a loose body appeared in the intercondylar notch and the posteromedial opacity was absent. At arthroscopy, the loose body could not be found within the joint and a peroperative radiograph showed that the opacity had returned to its original position. The loose body was visualized with the arthroscope inserted via a posteromedial portal and passed into the popliteal cyst. After manipulation of the loose body into the posteromedial compartment, it was removed via arthrotomy. The possibility that a loose body may lie in a popliteal cyst should be considered if all other attempts have failed to locate it.

Fatty acid and retinol binding proteins (FARs) are lipid-binding protein that may be associated with modulating nematode pathogenicity to their hosts. However, the functional mechanism of FARs remains elusive. We attempt to study the function of a certain FAR that may be important in the development of Nippostrongylus brasiliensis.

Introduction: Renuvion was the first FDA approved helium plasma device utilized for subdermal tissue heating to reduce skin laxity. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that the use of Renuvion improves the outcomes, skin quality and reduces the edema faster after lipoabdominoplasty.
Materials And Methods: Patients with abdominal skin laxity after a weight loss of at least 20 kg, nonsmokers, without major comorbidities, with a minimum 2-year follow-up and standardized pre- and postoperative photographs were included in this study.

Numerous reports have indicated that the type 3 resistant starch (RS3) derived from can regulate lipid metabolism. However, it remains unclear whether the type 5 resistant starch (RS5) exhibits similar effects. In this study, RS5 was prepared from native starch and lauric acid through a hydrothermal method for the first time, and its nutritional intervention effects on hyperlipidemia in mice were investigated.
