The management of testicular torsion: A survey of Turkish pediatric surgeons and pediatric urologists.
This study aimed to evaluate the approaches of pediatric surgeons and pediatric urologists in Türkiye regarding the diagnosis and treatment of testicular torsion (TT) and their adherence to the European Association of Urology (EAU) pediatric urology guideline. ⋯ While most participants follow EAU pediatric urology guidelines by performing emergency surgery, the rate of manual detorsion is low. Few participants stated that emergency surgery may not be performed after manual detorsion. While all of the participants performed fixation of the torsion testicle in accordance with the guidelines, the same adherence was not observed in the contralateral testicle.

Evaluation of the effects of ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat isogenic and allogeneic muscle and skin transplant models.
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a phenomenon that affects transplant survival. The aim of our study was to examine the effects of IRI in isogenic and allogeneic muscle and skin transplantation models exposed to prolonged warm ischemia. ⋯ The presence of DSC in the AMT group and the lack of a significant difference in the number of functional muscle units in the IMT and AMT groups are noteworthy findings.
