Gorham-Stout disease(GSD) is a rare osteolytic disorder characterized by spontaneous and progressive osteolysis, along with abnormal angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis, with no new bone formation. We present a case of a 15-year-old female admitted due to " recurrent right leg pain for 5 years, 11 months after undergoing right femoral fracture surgery". Through comprehensive integration of the patient's clinical phenotype, laboratory tests, imaging findings, pathological examinations, and molecular biological test results, GSD was considered highly likely. A multidisciplinary treatment approach was conducted, including a combination of zoledronic acid and sirolimus to inhibit osteolysis, along with rehabilitation training and orthopedic intervention, providing a personalized and comprehensive treatment strategy.

As new evidence emerges, treatment strategies toward the functional cure of chronic hepatitis B are evolving. In 2019, a panel of national hepatologists published a Consensus Statement on the functional cure of chronic hepatitis B. Currently, an international group of hepatologists has been assembled to evaluate research since the publication of the original consensus, and to collaboratively develop the updated statements. The 2.0 Consensus was aimed to update the original consensus with the latest available studies, and provide a comprehensive overview of the current relevant scientific literatures regarding functional cure of hepatitis B, with a particular focus on issues that are not yet fully clarified. These cover the definition of functional cure of hepatitis B, its mechanisms and barriers, the effective strategies and treatment roadmap to achieve this endpoint, in particular new surrogate biomarkers used to measure efficacy or to predict response, and the appropriate approach to pursuing a functional cure in special populations, the development of emerging antivirals and immunomodulators with potential for curing hepatitis B. The statements are primarily intended to offer international guidance for clinicians in their practice to enhance the functional cure rate of chronic hepatitis B.

With the vigorous development of computers and internet, the construction of the information management system for Occupational Health Technical Service (OHTS) institutions in China has achieved impressive progress. But for the management of OHTS institutions, there are relatively few systems that can fully explore and utilize OHTS information. Base on this background, in light of the actual situation of the OHTS institution in Henan Province, an OHTS Information Management System was developed under the Java Spring Boot framework, with a MySQL database and a B/S multi-tier architecture. The platform integrates a vertical three-level network of ″provincial-municipal-county/district″ and a horizontal network involving health commissions, disease prevention and control bureaus, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (occupational disease prevention and treatment institutes), and OHTS institutions. The system includes five core modules: dynamic management of institutional and personnel qualifications, full-process project supervision (including five categories of technical services such as pre-evaluation and control-effectiveness evaluation), multidimensional decision analysis (including eight statistical indicators of institutional distribution, equipment allocation, and occupational hazard factors), rapid generation and automated submission of various reports, and early warning and intelligent supervision. The system has been implemented in 61 OHTS institutions in Henan Province, improving the ″off-site supervision rate″ of supervision department and promoting the standardization and digital transformation of occupational health services.

Oligodendrocyte lineage cells, including oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and oligodendrocytes (OLs), are essential in establishing and maintaining brain circuits. Autophagy is a conserved process that keeps the quality of organelles and proteostasis. The role of autophagy in oligodendrocyte lineage cells remains unclear. The present study shows that autophagy is required to maintain the number of OPCs/OLs and myelin integrity during brain aging. Inactivation of autophagy in oligodendrocyte lineage cells increases the number of OPCs/OLs in the developing brain while exaggerating the loss of OPCs/OLs with brain aging. Inactivation of autophagy in oligodendrocyte lineage cells impairs the turnover of myelin basic protein (MBP). It causes MBP to accumulate in the cytoplasm as multimeric aggregates and fails to be incorporated into integral myelin, which is associated with attenuated endocytic recycling. Inactivation of autophagy in oligodendrocyte lineage cells impairs myelin integrity and causes demyelination. Thus, this study shows autophagy is required to maintain myelin quality during aging by controlling the turnover of myelin components.

Objective To observe the protective effects of Yiqi Jiedu Decoction on ionizing radiation-induced small intestinal functional injury in mice,and explore whether it alleviates such injury by inhibiting small intestinal ferroptosis,thereby providing scientific support for the discovery and development of intestinal radiation protection drugs in aerospace medicine.Methods A total of 378 male Balb/c mice were randomly divided into 7 groups:blank control group,model group,positive drug group,high-dose Yiqi Jiedu Decoction group,low-dose Yiqi Jiedu Decoction group,Liproxstatin-1 pre-irradiation administration group,and Liproxstatin-1 post-irradiation administration group,with 54 mice in each group.Each group was further divided into 3 batches,with 18 mice per batch.Seven days after preventive administration,all groups except the blank control group were subjected to a single whole-body irradiation with 2.0 Gy 60Co γ-rays.The general condition and morphological structure of the small intestine were observed at 1,3,and 7 days post-irradiation.The small intestinal charcoal propulsion rate,serum D-xylose content,and lactic acid content were measured,along with the levels of Fe,LPO,MDA,GSH,and SOD activity in the small intestine.Results Yiqi Jiedu Decoction could mitigate the decrease in body weight of mice after 2.0 Gy 60Co γ-ray irradiation,improve the morphological structure of the small intestine,reduce the small intestine charcoal propulsion rate,increase serum D-xylose levels,and decrease total serum lactate levels.It also alleviated mitochondrial shrinkage in the small intestine and reduced the contents of Fe and MDA in small intestine tissues.Conclusion Yiqi Jiedu Decoction may alleviate ionizing radiation-induced small intestinal functional injury by inhibiting ferroptosis in the small intestine,providing a new strategy for intestinal radiation injury in deep space exploration missions such as manned spaceflight.
