Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death driven by lipid peroxidation, has been recently identified as a key role in Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis. In particular, lipid peroxidation-mediated ferroptosis is considered a key event leading to the death of dopaminergic neurons. This article reviews the role of lipid peroxidation-mediated ferroptosis in PD and its involved key signaling pathways, and explores the related targeted therapeutic strategies, with the aim of providing new ideas for targeted treatment of PD.

Post-translational modification of protein is a key mechanism for regulating cancer development and immune re-sponses,and has become an important target for cancer diagnosis and treatment.Among them,lactylation modification provides a new perspective for the precise prevention and control of tumors by affecting metabolism and epigenetics.Lactylation modification precisely regulates the functions of histone and non-histone,affecting tumor cell characteristics,microenvironment acidification,and immune cell functions,becoming a key hub connecting metabolic reprogramming and malignant phenotypes.This article reviews the regulatory roles of lactylation modification in tumor development,immune escape,clinical translation,and explores the potential of targeted inhi-bition of lactylation modification and its related pathways,as well as the inhibition of key enzyme activity.

Parkinson′s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, and the abnormal levels of its pathological marker ɑ-synuclein (ɑ-syn) are often accompanied by imbalanced heavy metal homeostasis. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear, with limited research. This review explores the interactions between iron, copper, zinc, and manganese with pathological ɑ-syn′s abnormal expression, aggregation, and degradation in development and progression of PD. It also discusses potential therapeutic directions for addressing heavy metal imbalances in PD patients.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for strengthening the standardized management of off-label drug use in cancer hospitals. METHODS The evaluation system for off-label drug use was established to standardize the application， approval， and filing process for off-label drug use in our hospital. The changes in off-label drug application quantity， proportion， disease category and drug category in our hospital were compared before （October 1st， 2021-September 30th， 2022） and after （October 1st， 2022- September 30th， 2023） the establishment of the evaluation system； drug items supported by high-level evidence screened by pharmacy department were analyzed statistically. RESULTS The number of off-label drug use applications in our hospital had gradually increased， from 306 pieces in the fourth quarter of 2021 to 3 828 pieces in the third quarter of 2023. In the year before the construction of the evaluation system， there were a total of 4 482 applications for off-label drug use， and in the year after the construction of the evaluation system， there were 11 840 applications for off-label drug use. After the construction of the evaluation system， the proportion of unregistered off-label drug use significantly decreased， compared to the same period last year （P＜0.05）. Among them， there were no unregistered applications for off-label drug use for digestive system tumors， head and neck tumors， and radioactive drugs； lymphoma， breast tumors，urogenital system tumors， cytotoxic drugs and new anti-tumor drugs all had a decrease of over 70% in unregistered off-label drug applications. Twenty-seven off-label drug use items related to 19 drugs supported by high-level evidence were screened by the pharmacy department of our hospital， among which 25 items were drug use beyond indication. CONCLUSIONS The establishment of off-label drug use evaluation system in cancer hospital is helpful to the rational use and refined management of clinical anti-tumor drugs.

Objective To further investigate clinical manifestations and management for thallium poisoning. Methods Clinical data of 6 patients who were hospitalized in Union Hospital of Tongji Medical College in May 2008 with diagnosis of acute or chronic thallium poisoning,were retrospectively analyzed.Results Six patients (4 male and 2 female) ,aged from 12 to 50,came from one family (two sisters with their husbands and sons). Five of them (3 acute and 2 chronic,for the second time in half a year,thallium poisoning) initiated with peripheral neuritis,represented with severe burning pain,numbness,paresthesia in the lower limbs,accompanied with or without gastrointestinal symptoms. A 12 year-old boy with obviously elevated urinary thallium concentration was asymptomatic. Blood and urinary thallium concentrations of the patients were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry and were all significantly elevated.Treatment was initiated using potassium supplementation,diuresis,oral laxatives,Prussian blue and intramuscular injection of dimercaptopropansulfonate sodium.Meanwhile two of them were treated with hemoperfusion. Finally,two of them recovered,another two were transferred to a specialized hospital for continuous treatment,and the rest two deteriorated rapidly with occurrence of unconsciousness and died of multiple organ failure. Conclusions The main clinical manifestations of thallium poisoning are multiple peripheral neuritis,gastrointestinal symptoms and dermatological changes. In order to avoid missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis,a high suspicion should be arose for thallium poisoning when a patient suffering from the above symptoms.Prussian blue was considered traditionally as an effective therapeutic strategy for the condition,and hemoperfusion may be a more effective treatment for acute thallium poisoning.

ObjectiveTo determine the efficacy of constraint-induced movement therapy(CIMT) on different severity of the motor deficit of upper extremity after stroke.Methods27 stroke patients who had upper-limb hemiparesis and learned nonuse were allocated either to the moderate group(n=12) or the severe group(n=15) according to severity of initial motor deficit of upper extremity by Upper Extremity Function Test(UEFT).The two group patients were given CIMT,involving restriction of movement of the intact upper extremity by placing it in a sling for 90% of waking hours for 12 days and training(by repetitive practice,shaping) of the more affected extremity for 6 hours on the 10 weekdays during that period.Outcome were measured with UEFT.ResultsThere was no significant difference in treatment gain on the UEFT between the moderate patients and the severe patients(P>0.05).However,the Effect Size for the severe patients(ES=2.2) was larger than for the moderate patients(ES=1.8) at the quality of movement(UEFT).ConclusionCIMT is an effective rehabilitation technique for different severity of the motor deficit of upper extremity after stroke,especially in severe stroke patients.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of language rehabilitation training on stroke patients with complete aphasia.Methods10 stroke patients with complete aphasia were treated with language rehabilitation training.ResultsAfter training, scores of hearing, naming, reciting, reading, and writing of patients were significant higher than that before training (P<0.05—0.01).Conclusion Language rehabilitation training plays an active role in rehabilitation of stroke patients with complete aphasia.

ObjectiveTo quantitatively assess the effect of Constraint Induced(CI) Movement Therapy on stroke and head injured patients.MethodsNine stroke and head injured patients were applied by CI therapy,which consist of restraint of the unaffected upper extremity in a sling for 14 days combined with 6 hours of training per day of the affected upper extremity. The Carroll test and a Japan upper extremity function test were applied in baseline, pretreatment and posttreatment.ResultsThere were improvement in scores of the Carroll test (P=0.02) and a Japan upper extremity function test (P=0.42)in posttreatment compared with those in baseline.ConclusionsCI therapy is an effective treatment for upper extremity function of stroke and head injured patients.
