Body stalk anomaly is a severe body wall defect, with maldevelopment of the hindgut and the presence of a very rudimentary umbilical cord. A case of prenatally-diagnosed body stalk anomaly is presented along with the discussion of the prenatal diagnosis and its management. Autopsy of the fetus showed abnormalities compatible with the maldevelopment of embryonic body folding. Prenatal ultrasonographic diagnosis of body stalk anomaly would permit the early termination of pregnancy or avoidance of surgical intervention.

Gastrulation marks a pivotal stage in mammalian embryonic development, establishing the three germ layers and body axis through lineage diversification and morphogenetic movements. However, studying human gastrulating embryos is challenging due to limited access to early tissues. Here we show the use of spatial transcriptomics to analyse a fully intact Carnegie stage 7 human embryo at single-cell resolution, along with immunofluorescence validations in a second embryo.

Article Synopsis
- Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disorder marked by the abnormal buildup of dendritic histiocytes in tissues, often presenting as single- or multi-system diseases, particularly affecting adults.
- In a reported case, a 46-year-old woman experienced back pain, motor and sensory deficits, and was diagnosed with a compression fracture in the spine, alongside signs of central nervous system and salivary gland involvement.
- The patient underwent surgical intervention that included decompression and a biopsy, confirming the presence of LCH, highlighting the complexity and rarity of adult-onset LCH with extensive system involvement.

Objective: Sheehan syndrome (SS), or postpartum pituitary necrosis, occurs due to reduced vascular supply to pituitary gland after postpartum hemorrhage, often linked to coagulation abnormalities, and pituitary antibodies. A smaller sella turcica volume is a risk factor for SS, consequent to compressive effects on the pituitary stalk. Hypopituitarism in SS increases the risk of metabolic liver and bone diseases.

This work describes Bryozoa of the order Cheilostomata associated with polymetallic nodules collected by box-coring in the eastern part of the Russian exploration area of the Clarion-Clipperton Fracture Zone (CCFZ or CCZ) under contract to Yuzhmorgeologiya. Study of 569 cheilostome specimens from 4510-5280 m depth yielded 32 species (22 new) in 20 genera (3 new) and 14 families (1 new). For six species, the nomenclature was left open (genus only) owing to the paucity of defining characters.
