Sarcopenia, an age-related degenerative skeletal muscle disorder characterized by progressive loss of muscle mass, diminished strength, and impaired physical function, poses substantial challenges to global healthy aging initiatives. The pathogenesis of this condition is fundamentally rooted in mitochondrial dysfunction, manifested through defective energy metabolism, disrupted redox equilibrium, imbalanced dynamics, and compromised organelle quality control. This comprehensive review elucidates the central role of exercise-induced mitochondrial hormesis as a critical adaptive mechanism counteracting sarcopenia. Mitohormesis represents an evolutionarily conserved stress response wherein sublethal mitochondrial perturbations, particularly transient low-dose reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during muscle contraction, activate cytoprotective signaling cascades rather than inflicting macromolecular damage. The mechanistic foundation of this process involves ROS functioning as essential signaling molecules that activate the Keap1 nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) antioxidant response element pathway. This activation drives transcriptional upregulation of phase II detoxifying enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), thereby enhancing cellular redox buffering capacity. Crucially, Nrf2 engages in bidirectional molecular crosstalk with peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha (PGC-1α), the principal regulator orchestrating mitochondrial biogenesis through coordinated induction of nuclear respiratory factors 1 and 2 (NRF1/2) along with mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam), collectively facilitating mitochondrial DNA replication and respiratory complex assembly. Concurrently, exercise-induced alterations in cellular energy status, specifically diminished ATP to AMP ratios, potently activate AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK). This energy-sensing kinase phosphorylates PGC-1α while concomitantly stimulating NAD dependent deacetylase sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) activity, which further potentiates PGC-1α function through post-translational deacetylation. The integrated AMPK/PGC-1α/SIRT1 axis coordinates mitochondrial biogenesis, optimizes network architecture through regulation of fusion proteins mitofusin 1 (Mfn1), mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) and optic atrophy protein 1 (OPA1), and enhances clearance of damaged organelles via selective activation of mitophagy receptors BCL2 interacting protein 3 (Bnip1) and FUN14 domain containing 1 (FNDC1). Exercise further stimulates the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt), increasing molecular chaperones such as heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) and HSP10 to preserve proteostasis. Within the mitochondrial matrix, SIRT3 fine-tunes metabolic flux through deacetylation of electron transport chain components, improving phosphorylation efficiency while attenuating pathological ROS emission. Distinct exercise modalities differentially engage these pathways. Aerobic endurance training primarily activates AMPK/PGC-1α signaling and UPRmt to expand mitochondrial volume and oxidative capacity. Resistance training exploits mechanical tension to acutely stimulate mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) mediated protein synthesis while modulating dynamin related protein 1 (Drp1) phosphorylation dynamics to support mitochondrial network reorganization. High intensity interval training generates potent metabolic oscillations that rapidly amplify AMPK/PGC-1α and Nrf2 activation, demonstrating particular efficacy in insulin-resistant phenotypes. Strategically designed concurrent training regimens synergistically integrate these adaptations. Mitochondrial-nuclear communication through tricarboxylic acid cycle metabolites and mitochondrially derived peptides such as mitochondrial open reading frame of 12s rRNA-c (MOTS-c) coordinates systemic metabolic reprogramming, with exercise-responsive myokines including fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF-21) mediating inter-tissue signaling to reduce inflammation and enhance insulin sensitivity. This integrated framework provides the scientific foundation for precision exercise interventions targeting mitochondrial pathophysiology in sarcopenia, incorporating biomarker monitoring and exploring pharmacological potentiators including nicotinamide riboside and MOTS-c mimetics. Future investigations should delineate temporal dynamics of mitohormesis signaling and epigenetic regulation to optimize therapeutic approaches for age-related muscle decline.

This article introduces the clinical approach and acupuncture characteristics of the traditional Chinese medicine practitioner Professor YU Hai-Bo in treating paediatric cerebral palsy using the"Jianpi Yishen Triple-Needle Grouping Acupoints".Guided by the theory of growth and development of"viscera-meridian-brain"growth and development,Professor YU believed that"insufficiency of spleen and kidney"is the core pathogenesis of paediatric cerebral palsy,and the treatment concept of"treating from the spleen and kidney"was proposed.He inherited and innovated the triple-needle grouping acupoints therapy and establishing the system of"Jianpi Yishen Triple-Needle Grouping Acupoints".Before regular acupuncture,the abdomen and dorsum are pricked to freely regulate the middle energizer,and the upper limbs are selected as"Hegu(LI4),Waiguan(SJ5),Quchi[(LI11),three acupoints on the hand]+ Neiguan(PC6)";the lower limbs are selected as"Zusanli(ST36),Sanyinjiao(SP6),Taichong[(LR3),three acupoints on the foot];"Shenmai(BL62),Zhaohai(KI6),Yongquan(KI1)",spleen and kidney are regulated simultaneously,and the head acupoints include Sishencong(EX-HN1),intelligence tri-needling,cerebral tri-needling,temporal tri-needling,mind-calming needling and bilateral Fengchi(GB20).In order to regulate the spirit and benefit the intellect,the matching acupoints are modified according to the disease and the syndromes.At the same time,it is supplemented with music therapy and auricular point seed-pressing.Emphasis is placed on the simultaneous regulation of"child-parent-doctor"and"treating the person"rather than the"treating the disease".

Objective To make an epidemiological investigation on traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)dampness syndrome manifestations in the population at risk of cerebrovascular diseases in Guangdong area.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze the clinical data related to the risk of cerebrovascular diseases in 330 Guangdong permanent residents.The diagnosis of dampness syndrome,quantitative scoring of dampness syndrome and rating of the risk of stroke were performed for the investigation of the distribution pattern of dampness syndrome and its influencing factors.Results(1)A total of 306(92.73%)study subjects were diagnosed as dampness syndrome.The percentage of dampness syndrome in the risk group was 93.82%(258/275),which was slightly higher than that of the healthy group(48/55,87.27%),but the difference was not statistically significant(χ2 = 2.91,P = 0.112).The quantitative score of dampness syndrome in the risk group was higher than that of the healthy group,and the difference was statistically significance(Z =-2.24,P = 0.025).(2)Among the study subjects at risk of cerebrovascular disease,evaluation time(χ2 = 26.11,P = 0.001),stroke risk grading(χ2= 8.85,P = 0.031),and history of stroke or transient ischemic attack(TIA)(χ2 = 9.28,P = 0.015)were the factors influencing the grading of dampness syndrome in the population at risk of cerebrovascular disease.Conclusion Dampness syndrome is the common TCM syndrome in the population of Guangdong area.The manifestations of dampness syndrome are more obvious in the population with risk factors of cerebrovascular disease,especially in the population at high risk of stroke,and in the population with a history of stroke or TIA.The assessment and intervention of dampness syndrome should be taken into account for future project of stroke prevention in Guangdong.

Osteoporosis （OP） is a systemic metabolic bone disease characterized by bone microstructure degeneration and bone mass loss， which has a high prevalence and disability rate. Effective prevention and treatment of OP is a major difficulty in the medical community. The nature of OP is that multiple pathological factors lead to the imbalance of human bone homeostasis maintained by osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic cell death pathway， and its fundamental cause is cell damage caused by iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation. Studies have shown that ferroptosis is involved in and affects the occurrence and development of OP， which leads to OP by mediating the imbalance of bone homeostasis. Ferroptosis is an adjustable form of programmed cell death. The intervention of ferroptosis can regulate the damage degree and death process of osteoblasts and osteoclasts， which is beneficial to maintain bone homeostasis， slow down the development process of OP， improve the clinical symptoms of patients， reduce the risk of disability， and improve their quality of life. However， there are few studies on ferroptosis in OP. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is a medical treasure with unique characteristics and great application value in China. It has been widely used in China and has a long history. It has the multi-target and multi-pathway advantages in the treatment of OP， with high safety， few toxic and side effects， and low treatment cost， and has a significant effect in clinical application. The intervention of TCM in ferroptosis to regulate bone homeostasis may be a new direction for the prevention and treatment of OP in the future. This article summarized the regulatory mechanisms related to ferroptosis， discussed the role of ferroptosis in bone homeostasis， and reviewed the current status and progress of active ingredients in TCM compounds and monomers in the regulation of OP through ferroptosis， so as to provide a theoretical basis for the participation of TCM in the prevention and treatment of OP in the future.

Objective To analyze and verify the role of senescent genes in the treatment,prognosis,and tumor microenvironment(TME)characteristics of osteoblastic osteosarcoma,bioinformatic methods were employed.Methods Senescent genes were obtained from the China National Genome Science database(https://ngdc.cncb.ac.cn/aging/index).The gene expression profile and clinical information of osteosarcoma patients were sourced from the TARGET database(https://ocg.cancer.gov/programs/target),while single-cell RNA-sequencing(scRNA-seq)data was collected from GSE162454 on the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)for downstream analysis.Osteosarcoma cells were classified based on scRNA-seq,and differential expression analysis between osteoblasts/chondroblasts and other cell types was conducted to identify differently expressed genes(DEGs).After matching with the senescent genes,prognostic senescent DEGs were identified through univariable and multivariable Cox regression analysis.Subsequently,the osteosarcoma senescent-related model(OSRM)was constructed,and the risk score was calculated.The role of OSRM in treatment,prognosis,and TME of osteosarcoma was further investigated.Results The analysis revealed that GSE162454 contained 6 osteosarcoma samples,with 19933 cells identified after filtering,quality control,and normalization.Seventeen cellular subtypes were identified using uniform manifold approximation and projection(UMAP)methods.A total of 4821 DEGs were found between osteoblasts/chondroblasts and other subtypes,with 132 senescent DEGs obtained after matching with the senescent gene set.In the TARGET database,4 prognostic senescent DEGs[ADH5(alcohol dehydrogenase 5),ARHGAP1(Rho GTPase activating protein 1),APOE(apolipoprotein E),and ATF4(activating transcription factor 4)]were identified through univariable and multivariable Cox analyses to construct OSRM.Based on risk score,patients were stratified into high-and low-risk groups,with the latter showing better prognosis(HR=0.13,95%CI 0.06-0.28,P<0.001)and higher sensitivity to immune checkpoint inhibitors.qRT-PCR and Western blotting confirmed the high expression of senescent genes ADH5(P<0.01),APOE(P<0.01),and ATF4(P<0.05)in the K7M2 osteosarcoma cell line,suggesting the potential for predicting the response to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy for osteosarcoma.Conclusions scRNA-seq facilitated the division of osteosarcoma into 17 cell subtypes.ADH5,ARHGAP1,APOE,and ATF4 emerged as potential cancer-promoting or suppressing senescent genes in osteosarcoma.OSRM was found to be associated with treatment response,prognosis,and TME characteristics,thereby promoting the molecular pathological diagnosis of osteoblastic osteosarcoma and prediction for anti-PD-1 immunotherapy.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.
