Sperm DFI diagnostic value was controversial as not rule out male sperm parameters.

Whether DFI was a useful indicator for embryologists and clinicians in UEI couples.

There is no consensus about which method is preferred for biliary drainage for Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma (PCCA).

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (EBD) or Percutaneous Transhepatic Biliary Drainage (PTBD) are options of choice.

PTBD is superior to EBD regarding crossover rate, overall post-drainage complications, and post-drainage pancreatitis.

EBD is superior to PTBD when it comes to hospital length of stay.

For the palliation of PCCA, PTBD is superior to EBD in terms of clinical success and post-drainage cholangitis.

US-CNB is a reliable preoperative test for detecting axillary metastasis in breast cancer patients, with high accuracy and safety.

Compared to US-FNA, US-CNB shows even higher accuracy for detecting axillary metastasis in breast cancer patients.

The use of US-CNB as a preoperative test can reduce the need for a second operation and improve patient outcomes.

Perianal Crohn's disease patient has a chance of HPV 3.29 time higher than control.

High risk HPV is numerically twice as prevalent in perianal Crohn's disease patient.

This meta-analysis shows that gefitinib plus chemotherapy showed significantly better efficacy in improving objective response rate, disease control rate, progression-free survival, and OS as compared with gefitinib alone.

Similar efficacy of gefitinib plus chemotherapy is found in the sub-population with positive EGFR mutation.

The toxicity of gefitinib plus chemotherapy is also increased but within clinical management.

Bisphenola A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor widely investigated as a possible environmental contributor to the pathogenesis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).

Due to its structural similarity with the Estrogen molecule (E2), it acts as a xenoestrogen, binding to genomic and non-genomic estrogen receptors, causing metabolic and hormonal changes that lead to PCOS (hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, obesity, atherogenic dyslipidemia, anovulation, and ovarian cysts).

The aim and of this review were to present the mechanisms of bisphenol A participation in the pathogenesis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
