Cochlear implantation (CI) is a safe and well‐established intervention for sensorineural hearing loss, with a low incidence of severe postoperative infections. We present the first reported case of cerebellar abscess and herniation due to CI infection. This unique case involves a 57‐year‐old man with recurrent cochlear implant infections, necessitating

Investigating the flow dynamics in the obstructed and stented ureter by means of a biomimetic artificial model. [PDF]
Double-J stenting is the most common clinical method employed to restore the upper urinary tract drainage, in the presence of a ureteric obstruction. After implant, stents provide an immediate pain relief by decreasing the pressure in the renal pelvis (P)

Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), also known as stress‐induced cardiomyopathy or apical ballooning syndrome, is increasingly recognised as an acute myocardial ischemic syndrome primarily involving transient microvascular dysfunction rather than epicardial coronary occlusion and characterised by transient left ventricular dysfunction. Patients are predominantly

Late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac magnetic resonance predicts coronary vasomotor abnormality and myocardial lactate production in patients with chronic heart failure [PDF]
Myocardial fibrosis and microvascular dysfunction are key determinants of outcome in heart failure (HF); we examined their relationship in patients with HF. Our study included 61 consecutive patients with HF but without coronary stenosis.

The role of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system polymorphisms in phenotypic expression of MYBPC3-related hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
The phenotypic variability of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in patients with identical pathogenic mutations suggests additional modifiers. In view of the regulatory role in cardiac function, blood pressure, and electrolyte homeostasis, polymorphisms ...

Endocrine aberrations of human nonobstructive azoospermia
Nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) refers to the failure of spermatogenesis, which affects approximately 1% of the male population and contributes to 10% of male infertility. NOA has an underlying basis of endocrine imbalances since proper human spermatogenesis relies on complex regulation and cooperation of multiple hormones. A
