Achondroplasia (ACH) is a common inherited skeletal dysplasia (inherited dwarfism) that compromises quality of life across the lifespan. In 2021, vosoritide became the first approved precision therapy for ACH and is now available in more than 40 countries. Compared with prior symptomatic measures, vosoritide has demonstrated favorable efficacy and a reassuring safety profile. Nevertheless, existing international ACH guidelines largely emphasize complication management and symptomatic care, and there is no unified consensus on pharmacologic therapy. To address this gap, an international expert group developed the International Consensus Guidelines for the Implementation and Monitoring of Vosoritide Therapy in Patients with Achondroplasia providing systematic recommendations that span the continuum of care - from initial patient contact and pre-treatment assessment to medication counseling, injection training, and long-term outcome monitoring. These recommendations complement and refine current management and nursing protocols for individuals with ACH and offer practical guidance for clinicians across diverse regions. This article highlights key elements of the guideline to provide evidence-based support and clinical direction for healthcare professionals in China treating children with ACH using vosoritide.

Narcotic plants are strictly regulated worldwide due to their ability to extract drug alkaloids and drug precursor components. Besides the three traditional core species, cannabis, opium poppy, and coca, the misuse of psychoactive plants with addictive properties has become increasingly prevalent globally in recent years, and the establishment of accurate identification methods for such plants has become an urgent need in the field of narcotics control. Within existing identification frameworks, the conventional morphological and chemical analysis methods, despite their long-term application, have demonstrated considerable limitations. In contrast, DNA-based molecular identification techniques have achieved significant advancement in recent years due to their high specificity and stability. This review comprehensively examines current DNA-based identification approaches for narcotic plants through three key dimensions: DNA molecular marker technology, DNA barcoding technology, and emerging molecular biological techniques, and elaborates on the principles, technical characteristics, application scenarios, and research progress of each technology, providing some reference for the scientific selection of DNA identification strategies for narcotic plants in different specific scenarios.

Objective:Observation of the therapeutic effect of Yugu Ju detergent combined with fusidic acid cream on the repair of wounds infected with Staphylococcus aureus,as well as its impact on serum inflammatory markers TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,oxidative stress markers MDA,ROS,SOD and Nrf2 levels.Methods:96 patients with skin defects and SA U infection caused by trauma admitted to the hospital from June 2021 to December 2023 were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group.Both groups were treated with debridement,while the control group was treated with external application of fusidic acid cream.The treatment group received external washing with Yugu Ju detergent in addition to the control group.One course of treatment lasted for 7 days,with three consecutive courses of treatment.Observe the wound healing rate,bacterial clearance rate,and changes in TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,SOD,MDA,ROS,and Nrf2 before and after treatment to evaluate clinical efficacy and safety.Results:The total clinical effective rate of the observation group after treatment was 93.75%(45/48),while that of the control group was 75%(36/48).The observation group was significantly better than the control group(P<0.05);The wound healing rate and bacterial clearance rate of the observation group at each time point after treatment were higher than those of the control group(P<0.05);After treatment,the Nrf2 and SOD values in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,while the TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,MDA,and ROS values were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).No adverse reactions occurred during the treatment of both groups.Conclusion:The combination of Yugu Ju detergent and Fusidic acid cream can inhibit SA U and promote the healing of infectious wounds,which may be related to the activation of Nrf2 expression to inhibit oxidative stress and inflammatory response.It is safe and effective,and worthy of promotion and application.

Excessive ionizing radiation can disrupt the molecular structures of organisms,leading to health issues such as acute radiation syndrome and cancer,posing serious threats to human health.The development of radioprotective drugs holds significant importance for mitigating ionizing radiation damage and safeguarding public health,yet its research process faces multidimensional ethical challenges.This paper systematically explores the ethical issues involved in the full lifecycle of radioprotective drug development,focusing on the ethical particularities of animal experimentation,ethical dilemmas in human trials,data privacy and security risks,as well as challenges in managing conflicts of interest.Targeted solutions are proposed,including strengthening ethical review mechanisms,promoting interdisciplinary collaboration,constructing data security management systems,and establishing conflict-of-interest mediation mechanisms.These comprehensive measures aim to build a scientifically rigorous ethical framework for radioprotective drug research,fostering sustainable development in this field.

With the widespread application of nuclear technology,the prevention and treatment of radiation damage have become significant issues in the fields of public health and medicine.This article reviews the adverse drug reactions and their monitoring for radioprotective drugs,and discusses their post-marketing re-evaluation in terms of safety,efficacy,economics,and quality standards.Research indicates that while there is a wide variety of radioprotective drugs,safety concerns are prevalent.Future efforts should focus on strengthening the monitoring and management of adverse drug reactions,optimizing drug safety,and exploring the potential of combined drug applications through multidisciplinary collaboration to enhance anti-radiation efficacy.
