Through reviewing literature on thyroid cancer management strategies, this article discusses the problems of active monitoring strategies, the real implementation status, and the hidden dangers of thermal ablation as a downgrade treatment. It points out that further research is needed to accurately identify low-risk PTMCs and implement active monitoring methods. The improvement in the 5-year survival rate of thyroid cancer is due to standardized diagnosis and treatment. At present, it is still too early to downgrade the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer in China. The World Health Organization recommends the three early principles of early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment for the treatment of malignant tumors as the fundamental principles of thyroid cancer diagnosis and treatment.

As a crucial barrier to ensuring blood transfusion safety, blood virus inactivation technology plays an irreplaceable role in addressing the "window period" of detection, the threat of emerging pathogens, and the limitations of detection technologies. This article systematically reviews the current status and technical characteristics of mainstream blood virus inactivation technologies, and conducts an in-depth discussion on the application prospects and challenges of emerging technologies in this field. Among conventional technologies, the photochemical methods (including methylene blue, psoralen S-59/INTERCEPT system, and riboflavin/Mirasol system) have been widely used in clinical practice due to their broad-spectrum inactivation capacity. However, these methods are associated with functional impairment of blood components. The organic solvent/detergent (S/D) method performs excellently in inactivating viruses in plasma products yet is ineffective against non-lipid-enveloped viruses. Short-wave ultraviolet (UVC) direct irradiation technology eliminates the need for chemical additives, though its inactivation efficiency and compatibility with blood components requires optimization. The chemical modification method, while specifically designed for red blood cells, faces safety challenges such as potential immunogenicity. For emerging technologies, cold plasma technology shows great potential owing to its multi-target synergistic inactivation mechanism, though challenges regarding its biocompatibility and selectivity remain. Electrolyzed water technology has the advantages of low cost and operational simplicity, yet in-depth research is needed on the non-specific damage caused by active substances to blood components. Novel photodynamic therapy significantly improves inactivation efficiency by developing high-efficiency targeted photosensitizers and has broad prospects for combined applications with antibodies, nanomaterials, and other substances. Future development trends point to the "combination therapy" strategy, which leverages the synergy of multiple technologies to achieve the optimal balance between efficient virus inactivation and functional prservation of blood components. The development of such technologies needs to shift from "single-method" to "integrated approach", from "inactivation" to "viability preservation", and bridge the translation gap from "laboratory" to "global application". The ultimate goal is to establish a standardized, automated, and cost-controllable comprehensive blood safety assurance system.

The concept of holographic law is widely reflected in the theory and clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. From philosophical perspective， TCM encompasses rich holographic law concepts， such as the theory of qi as the fundamental essence， mutual rooting and mutual storage of yin and yang， and mutual storage and classifications of the five phases. Through philosophical exploration of holographic law in TCM， this paper aimed to elucidate the connection between holographic law and TCM， and analyze the value and limitations of holographic law in TCM. Future research on holographic law in TCM should not only philosophically scrutinize the relationship between the whole and its parts under the guidance of holographic law thinking， but also incorporate qualitative and quantitative studies by referring to modern disciplines such as anatomy， physiology， and pathology， in order to better understand and validate the holographic law concepts in TCM.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of CD155 in oral squamous cell carci-noma(OSCC)tissues,as well as its impact on migration,proliferation and invasion.Methods Immunohisto-chemistry(IHC)was used to analyze the expression of CD155 in OSCC tissues and its correlation with clinicopath-ological features and prognosis.The transcription levels of CD155 were assessed by Western blot and RT-qPCR.Cell experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of CD155 on OSCC cells following transfection with CD155 siRNA.Results CD155 was predominantly expressed on the cell membrane in OSCC tissues,with higher expres-sion levels compared to normal tissues(x2=50.750,P＜0.000 1).High CD155 expression was associated withⅢ+Ⅳ disease stages(x2=25.488,P=0.001),poor differentiation(x2=6.299,P=0.012),T3+T4 depth of invasion(x2=23.820,P=0.001)and lymph node metastasis(x2=7.830,P=0.005)in OSCC patients;survival analysis revealed a correlation between high CD155 expression and shorter patient survival(P＜0.05).COX regression analysis identified lymph node metastasis as an independent factor affecting the survival of OSCC patients(P＜0.05).Both CD155 protein expression and mRNA transcription levels were significantly upregulated in OSCC cells(P＜0.05).Transfection with siRNA-CD155 in OSCC cells resulted in significantly reduced prolif-eration,migration and invasion abilities compared to the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion CD 155 is highly expressed in OSCC tissues and is associated with poor patient prognosis.Modulating CD155 expression can influ-ence the biological functions of OSCC cells,leading to and inhibition of proliferation,migration,and invasion.

Objective:To clarify the genetic diagnosis of two children with ring chromosome 18 and explore their mechanisms and clinical phenotypes.Methods:Two patients treated at the Children′s Hospital of Henan Province respectively in June 2022 and March 2023 were selected as the study subjects. Genetic testing and diagnosis were carried out through copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq), G-banded chromosomal karyotyping, and whole exome sequencing (WES). This study was approved by the Children′s Hospital of Henan Province (Ethics No. 2023-K-075).Results:Child 1 had mainly manifested developmental delay, white matter hypoplasia, type 1 diabetes mellitus, and micropenis. He was found to have a chromosomal karyotype of 46, XY, r(18)(p11.21q22.1)[40]/46, XY[7], and CNV-seq results showed that he has a 14.86 Mb deletion at 18p11.21p11.32 and a 14.02 Mb deletion at 18q22.1q23. Child 2 had peculiar facial features, delayed white matter myelination, developmental delay, atrial septal defect, severe sensorineural deafness, and congenital laryngeal stridor. He was found to have a chromosomal karyotype of 46, XY, r(18)(p11.2q23). CNV-seq result proved that he had a 14.86 Mb deletion at 18p11.21p11.32 and a 20.74 Mb deletion at 18q21.32q23. WES has failed to detect single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in either child, but revealed a large segmental deletion at chromosome 18 in both of them.Conclusion:Both children were diagnosed with ring chromosome 18 syndrome. The different size of the deletional fragments in the 18q region and mosaicism of ring chromosome 18 in child 1 may underlay the variation in their clinical phenotypes. The type 1 diabetes mellitus and micropenis noted in both children are novel features for ring chromosome 18 syndrome.
