Late-diagnosed complete intravaginal testicular torsion with preserved blood flow and viable testis in an adolescent by Zvizdic, Zlatan

“…In intermittent TT, the degree of spermatic cord twist is ≥ 360°, but spontaneous resolution occurs after a short time. In the mentioned forms of TT, color Doppler ultrasonography (CDS) shows a subtle decreased blood flow or flow that appears symmetrical with the contralateral testis.1 In contrast, complete TT results in testicular ischemia due to compromised blood flow to the affected testis. …”

Phytochemicals as Micronutrients: What Is their Therapeutic Promise in the Management of Traumatic Brain Injury? by Al-Haj, Nadine

“…In this regards, phytochemicals have been acknowledged to cause a significant decrease in neuronal injury through different mechanisms including the activation of the Nrf2 transcription factor leading to activation of several antioxidant enzyme systems such as superoxide dismutase, inhibition of NADPH oxidases (NOX) enzymes, suppression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activity and reduction of the release of inflammatory mediators, suppression of the NLRP3 inflammasome, stimulation of neurogenesis by activating neurotrophic factors (BDNF), among others. …”
