Penile suspensory ligament: anatomy, function, and clinical perspectives of its repair.
J Sex Med
January 2025
Department of Urology, Holmesglen Private Hospital, Moorabbin 3189, Victoria, Australia.
Background: The penile suspensory ligament (PSL) plays a significant role in penile support and erection and its injury or congenital absence may result in functional impairment of erectile function.
Aim: To describe the diagnosis and surgical repair technique for PSL abnormalities and overall outcomes.
Methods: A comprehensive review of the literature was performed to understand the anatomic relevance of the PSL and historical management of PSL defects.
Inhibition of leukotrienes and their potential role in type 1 diabetes pathogenesis: implications for montelukast as a therapeutic agent: a case report.
Front Clin Diabetes Healthc
December 2024
Department of Medicine, NU Hospital Group, Trollhättan and Uddevalla, Sweden.
Introduction: Type 1 diabetes involves immune-mediated destruction of insulin-producing beta cells, with eosinophils potentially playing a significant role. Recent studies suggest that leukotriene inhibition might influence this process. This case report presents a novel observation of montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, reducing insulin requirements in a patient with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA).

J Clin Endocrinol Metab
January 2025
Division of Endocrinology, Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Debrecen, Debrecen, Hungary, Address: Hungary, 4032 Debrecen Nagyerdei krt. 98. Tel. +36-52-255-600.
Context: Increased orbital tissue volume due to matrix expansion, orbital fibroblast (OF) proliferation and adipocyte differentiation are the hallmarks of thyroid eye disease (TED). Their combination with the presence of hyaluronan-bound excess water in the constrains of the bony orbit results in increased intraorbital pressure. High intraorbital pressure, along with changes in the mechanical properties of orbital tissues, may lead to the activation of mechanosensitive receptors.

Front Public Health
January 2025
Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States.
Objectives: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and prediabetes are associated with poor walking endurance, a marker of physical function. We aimed to examine the long-term effects of metformin or intensive lifestyle intervention in adults at high risk of T2D on their 6-min walk test (6MWT) performance.
Methods: Participants were randomized in the 3-year Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) to one of the three groups: lifestyle intervention, metformin, or placebo, and were subsequently followed in the DPP Outcomes Study.
Assessing the Predictive Power of PIRCHE-II Scores for the Development of Donor-Specific Antibodies After Simultaneous Pancreas-Kidney Transplantation.
Transpl Int
January 2025
Department of Nephrology, University Hospital Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.
The molecular HLA epitope mismatch is an advanced measure for developing donor-specific antibodies (dnDSA) after kidney transplantation. Its relevance in simultaneous pancreas/kidney transplant recipients (SPKTRs) remains unclear. We investigated dnDSA development in 72 SPKTRs and 383 kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) and used the Predicted Indirectly Recognizable HLA-Epitopes (PIRCHE-II) algorithm to calculate the mismatch load of HLA-derived epitopes in total, per HLA-class, and per HLA-locus.
