Advances in Urology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objectives Although adrenalectomy for primary aldosteronism (PA) corrects hypokalemia, we observed cases in which serum potassium decreased immediately after adrenalectomy, even in patients with preoperative hypokalemia. No studies have described postoperative potassium changes in PA.

Cytotoxic and Genotoxic Responses in Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) Exposed to Toluene or Benzene Under Thermal Stress

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Pollution and climate change are increasingly recognized as interacting stressors that may exacerbate risks to aquatic organisms. The present study investigated the cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of thermal stress combined with benzene or toluene exposure in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).

STIM1 Reduction Prevents Tubular Aggregate Formation and Compromises Muscle Performance in Ageing Mice

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Ageing is an irreversible process involving the gradual decline of cellular functions in all tissues. In male mice, age‐related loss of muscle force is accompanied by the formation of tubular aggregates, which are honeycomb‐like structures composed of membrane tubules, proteins and Ca2+ deposits. Tubular aggregates are also found in
