Cryptorchidism: Novel genetic insights into CCDC149 mutations
Abstract Background Cryptorchidism, characterized by the failure of one or both testes to descend into the scrotum, is a common congenital condition that can lead to infertility and increased risk of testicular cancer. CCDC149, a coiled‐coil domain‐containing protein, has been implicated in various developmental processes, but its role in the male ...

Semen Cryopreservation in Testicular Cancer: Before or After Orchidectomy?
ABSTRACT Background Fertility preservation in patients with testicular cancer remains a clinical priority, yet the optimal timing for sperm cryopreservation—before or after orchidectomy—remains a matter of debate. Objectives The aim of this study was to determine the optimal timing for semen cryopreservation and the best‐quality sample for ART.

QT/QTc interval prolongation was observed following orchiectomy, particularly after bilateral orchiectomy. Careful ECG monitoring may be warranted. ABSTRACT Introduction Sex steroid hormones influence ventricular repolarization and QT interval duration. Testosterone has been associated with shorter QT intervals, whereas androgen deprivation may prolong

Behind the scenes: how the EMILIN/Multimerin family shapes the cancer landscape
The EMILIN/Multimerin family members regulate key hallmarks of cancer—including apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis, and tumor microenvironment remodeling. As indicated, their function in immune evasion, drug resistance, and metabolic reprogramming remains largely unexplored.
