This article reports a diagnostically and therapeutically challenging case of small intestinal marginal zone lymphoma. The patient presented with recurrent abdominal pain as the chief complaint, and imaging revealed multifocal small bowel wall thickening with high uptake, multisegmental luminal stenosis, and proximal dilation. Initial diagnostic workup, including gastroscopy, colonoscopy, and enteroscopy with biopsy, failed to establish a definitive diagnosis. Empirical anti-tuberculosis therapy was ineffective. A repeat enteroscopic biopsy performed over eight months after symptom onset eventually confirmed the diagnosis of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) extranodal marginal zone lymphoma. Despite three different chemotherapy regimens, the patient's intestinal obstruction symptoms persisted, with imaging still showing multifocal bowel wall thickening and hypermetabolic activity. A critical diagnostic dilemma arose regarding whether the PET/CT-positive lesions represented residual lymphoma or fibrotic scarring, whether further chemotherapy adjustments were warranted, and whether surgical resection was necessary. Multidisciplinary discussion concluded that imaging had limited discriminatory value in this scenario and that surgical intervention should be pursued if feasible. The patient successfully underwent partial small bowel resection, with postoperative pathology confirming no residual lymphoma but significant fibrotic changes. The patient has since resumed a normal diet, with body weight nearly restored to pre-illness levels. This case highlights that fibrotic transformation is a common sequela of treated marginal zone lymphoma and that PET/CT may misleadingly suggest residual disease, potentially leading to unnecessary chemotherapy. Timely surgical intervention is crucial in such scenarios.

Skeletal muscle dysfunction is a common extrapulmonary comorbidity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is associated with decreased quality-of-life and survival in patients. The autophagy lysosome pathway is one of the proteolytic systems that significantly affect skeletal muscle structure and function. Intriguingly, both promoting and inhibiting autophagy have been observed to improve COPD skeletal muscle dysfunction, yet the mechanism is unclear. This paper first reviewed the effects of macroautophagy and mitophagy on the structure and function of skeletal muscle in COPD, and then explored the mechanism of autophagy mediating the dysfunction of skeletal muscle in COPD. The results showed that macroautophagy- and mitophagy-related proteins were significantly increased in COPD skeletal muscle. Promoting macroautophagy in COPD improves myogenesis and replication capacity of muscle satellite cells, while inhibiting macroautophagy in COPD myotubes increases their diameters. Mitophagy helps to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis by removing impaired mitochondria in COPD. Autophagy is a promising target for improving COPD skeletal muscle dysfunction, and further research should be conducted to elucidate the specific mechanisms by which autophagy mediates COPD skeletal muscle dysfunction, with the aim of enhancing our understanding in this field.

Enamel demineralization, the formation of white spot lesions, is a common issue in clinical orthodontic treatment. The appearance of white spot lesions not only affects the texture and health of dental hard tissues but also impacts the health and aesthetics of teeth after orthodontic treatment. The prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of white spot lesions that occur throughout the orthodontic treatment process involve multiple dental specialties. This expert consensus will focus on providing guiding opinions on the management and prevention of white spot lesions during orthodontic treatment, advocating for proactive prevention, early detection, timely treatment, scientific follow-up, and multidisciplinary management of white spot lesions throughout the orthodontic process, thereby maintaining the dental health of patients during orthodontic treatment.

To investigate the clinical value of cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking (CMR-FT) technology in the assessment of the right ventricle function in patients with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICIs)-related myocarditis.

Background and objective Transcription factor(TF)can bind specific sequences that either promotes or represses the transcription of target genes,and exerts important effects on tumorigenesis,migration,invasion.Staphylococcal nuclease-containing structural domain 1(SND1),which is a transcriptional co-activator,is considered as a promising target for tumor therapy.However,its role in lung adenocarcinoma(LUAD)remains unclear.This study aims to explore the role of SND1 in LUAD.Methods Data from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA),Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO),Clinical Pro-teomic Tumor Analysis Consortium(CPTAC),and Human Protein Atlas(HPA)database was obtained to explore the associa-tion between SND1 and the prognosis,as well as the immune cell infiltration,and subcellular localization in LUAD tissues.Furthermore,the functional role of SND1 in LUAD was verified in vitro.EdU assay,CCK-8 assay,flow cytometry,scratch assay,Transwell assay and Western blot were performed.Results SND1 was found to be upregulated and high expression of SND1 is correlated with poor prognosis of LUAD patients.In addition,SND1 was predominantly present in the cytoplasm of LUAD cells.Enrichment analysis showed that SND1 was closely associated with the cell cycle,as well as DNA replication,and chro-mosome segregation.Immune infiltration analysis showed that SND1 was closely associated with various immune cell popula-tions,including T cells,B cells,cytotoxic cells and dendritic cells.In vitro studies demonstrated that silencing of SND1 inhib-ited cell proliferation,invasion and migration of LUAD cells.Besides,cell cycle was blocked at G,phase by down-regulating SND1.Conclusion SND1 might be an important prognostic biomarker of LUAD and may promote LUAD cells proliferation and migration.

Infectious disease is a major public health problem threatening human health and social development, and infectious disease teaching is an important part of public health education. However, traditional infectious disease teaching faces challenges such as overly theoretical and fragmented content, overly traditional and monotonous methods, and a narrow and isolated vision, which makes it difficult to adapt to the current complex and changing situation of infectious disease prevention and control. The “One Health” concept emphasizes interdisciplinary, cross-sectoral, and cross-regional communication and cooperation to achieve the harmonious unity of health for humans, animals, and the environment, which is significant in preventing and controlling infectious diseases. This paper proposes some ideas for reforming infectious disease teaching based on the One Health concept, which aims to improve the quality and effectiveness of infectious disease teaching by recognizing the close connection between human health, animal health, and environmental health. Specifically, it is suggested to reform the teaching in four aspects: introducing the basic concepts, principles, and practices of One Health, increasing the content of infectious diseases related to One Health, adopting diversified and interactive teaching methods, and establishing cross-disciplinary teaching cooperation. Concrete recommendations are provided for each aspect. This paper argues that reforming infectious disease teaching based on the One Health concept is conducive to cultivating public health talents with global vision, systems thinking, and cross-disciplinary collaboration capabilities, providing robust talent support for coping with emerging, re-emerging, and endemic infectious disease threats.

【Objective】 To explore the effect and mechanism of Fasudil in the treatment of experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) in mice so as to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical use of Fasudil in treating myocarditis. 【Methods】 Balb/c male mice were used as the research objects, and the EAM mice model was constructed using MyHC-α614-629 polypeptide. Mononuclear cells were isolated and cultured to detect the number of mononuclear cells in mouse spleen. Inflammation infiltration, fibrosis and IL-6 expression in mouse myocardial tissue were detected by HE staining, Masson staining and immunohistochemistry, respectively. The protein expressions of Notch1 and IL-6 were detected by Western blotting. qRT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of pro-inflammatory factors (IL-1α, IL-1β and IL-6) as well as key genes of TLRs and NOTCH signaling pathway. 【Results】 EAM mice showed increased HW, decreased BW, increased HW/e-BW, and increased inflammatory infiltration and fibrosis in myocardial tissue. The above-mentioned symptoms or pathological features were improved in EAM mice treated with Fasudil. The analysis showed that the pro-inflammatory factors IL-1α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the myocardial tissue of EAM mice were significantly increased, but only the expression of IL-6 was statistically different after Fasudil treatment compared with the control group. In addition, TLRs signaling pathway might also play an important role in the EAM mice treated with Fasudil. The expressions of IL-6 and Notch1 were consistent, and the expressions of the key genes of NOTCH signaling pathway (Notch1, Hes1 and Jag2) were down-regulated after Fasudil treatment. 【Conclusion】 Fasudil exerts a protective effect on down-regulation of IL-6 expression by inhibiting the NOTCH signaling pathway in EAM mice.

【Objective】 To construct the eukaryotic expression vector carrying the human wild-type p27 and lacking nuclear localization signal p27△NLS coding sequences， and the express them in HEK293T cells， which may contribute to investigating the different locations and roles of p27 in the cytoplasm and nucleus. 【Methods】 Total RNA was prepared from human breast cancer MCF7 cells， and cDNA was obtained by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR）. After amplification of the p27 CDs and non-NLS fragments by PCR， full length p27WT （CDKN1B， NM_004064.5） and p27△NLS coding regions were obtained. PCR products were then subcloned into the eukaryotic expression vector pCMV-Blank. After identification with bacterial PCR， double restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing， they were defined officially as pCMV-p27WT and pCMV-p27△NLS， respectively. The recombinant plasmids were transfected into HEK293T cells by electroporation. After 48 h， the levels of p27 protein in the cytoplasm and nucleus were detected by Western blotting. 【Results】 The sequencing results showed that the sequences of p27WT and p27△NLS inserted into the plasmids were both correctly consistent with that of NM_004064.5. After transfection with pCMV-p27WT， total p27 protein expression was increased and distributed in both the cytoplasm and nucleus of HEK293T cells. After transfection with pCMV-p27△NLS， p27 protein was significantly increased and almost entirely localized in the cytoplasm of HEK293T cells. 【Conclusion】 The eukaryotic expression plasmids of human p27WT and p27△NLS coding sequences were successfully constructed and overexpressed in HEK293T cells. This research may lay a foundation for investigating the biological function of p27 in the cell cycle progression of tumor cells.
