Abstract Upper cross syndrome (UCS) is an abnormal body posture phenomenon. The detection rate of UCS in adolescents is high in China, which has become a serious public health problem threatening the health of adolescents. Exercise therapy has a positive effect on the prevention and treatment of UCS.The article reviews the pathological mechanisms of muscle imbalance, muscle interaction inhibition, and neural control related to the occurrence and development of UCS both domestically and internationally in recent years.And it elucidates the effects and corresponding mechanisms of exercise interventions such as gentle exercise, stretching exercise and physical function training on UCS, so as to provide help for the correction of UCS.

In recent years, with the clinical application of minimally invasive surgical techniques and comprehensive preoperative treatment, the survival rate of locally advanced esophageal cancer has significantly improved. However, the treatment of metastatic esophagogastric cancer still relies mainly on systemic therapy, and immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy has become a first-line treatment option, prolonging the survival of patients with metastatic esophageal cancer. Oligometastatic esophageal cancer is expected to bring survival benefits through systemic therapy combined with local treatment. The 2024 European clinical practice guidelines for oligometastatic esophagogastric cancer have been officially released, which standardize the definition, diagnosis, and treatment of oligometastatic esophageal cancer for further prospective studies. The authors interpret this guideline, especially by reviewing the clinical evidence of oligometastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of oligometastatic esophageal cancer in China.

This paper aims to discuss the construction and promotion strategy of medical care capacity framework based on the core literacy of palliative care， combining domestic and foreign research and clinical status. The research results show that it is particularly important to construct a framework of medical care competence based on palliative care. The core competencies required for palliative care include the ability to comprehensively evaluate and formulate personalized programs， effective communication skills， interdisciplinary teamwork skills， and the ability to continuously learn and improve themselves. The quality of care can be further improved if the above abilities are incorporated into the framework of medical care ability based on palliative care. However， there are a series of problems in the process of constructing the framework of palliative medical care capacity， such as difficult implementation of policy support， poor professionalism of talent team， single and irregular service model， low social acceptance， and difficult interdisciplinary cooperation and resource integration. After a detailed analysis of the problems， this paper puts forward the countermeasures to construct the framework of caring ability literacy based on palliative care. Effective countermeasures such as increasing policy support， cultivating comprehensive talents， developing diversified palliative care models， improving social recognition， and strengthening interdisciplinary cooperation and resource integration can effectively improve the core literacy and professional ability of medical care personnel， and then promote the development and improvement of palliative care services. In-depth discussion of the above contents can provide scientific reference for building a care model and literacy framework with palliative care as the core.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy，safety and feasibility of regional lymph node dissection in laparoscopic radical surgery for bladder cancer under the guidance of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging. Methods: A total of 30 patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (T2/T3NxM0) who volunteered to enter the clinical trial were randomly divided into the indocyanine green imaging guided laparoscopic regional lymph node dissection group (n=15) and the standard pelvic lymph node dissection group (n=15).The number of positive lymph nodes，operation time，intraoperative bleeding volume，incidence of lymph leakage，and tumor recurrence and metastasis rate 2-year after surgery were collected. Results: The number of positive lymph nodes was (4.20±1.66) and (4.60±1.72) respectively in the indocyanine green and standard groups，with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).There were no statistically significant difference in the tumor recurrence and metastasis rates 2-year after surgery between the two groups (P>0.05).However，the indocyanine green group had shorter operation time，less intraoperative bleeding volume，and lower incidence of lymphatic leakage than the standard group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging guided laparoscopic lymph node dissection has comparable clinical efficacy to standard lymph node dissection，but with fewer complications.

Radiation-induced injury is a key factor in determining the prognosis of patients undergoing radiotherapy, highlighting the significant clinical importance of developing drugs for radiation prevention and treatment. Especially in oncology, radiation-induced injury remains a pivotal determinant of therapeutic outcomes, because of its direct correlation with normal tissue damage during radiotherapy. Efforts to mitigate or treat such injury are thus paramount in enhancing the overall safety and efficacy of cancer treatment. Novel nanomedicines with prolonged systemic circulation, versatile drug-loading capacities, enhanced tissue retention, and stimuli responsiveness exhibit unique advantages in the treatment and prevention of radiation-induced diseases, as they can be designed based on the specific microenvironment of radiation-damaged tissues, which offers innovative solutions to address the limitations of conventional radioprotectors such as short half-life, poor tissue targeting, and systemic side effects. This review thus aims to provide an overview of recent advance in the design and application of nanomaterials for radiation prevention and treatment. Generally, ionizing radiation damages cells either by inducing DNA double-strand breaks or through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The resulting oxidative stress would disrupt the structural integrity of cell membranes, proteins, and nucleic acids, leading to apoptosis, chronic inflammation, and systemic effects across multiple systems, including hematopoietic system, gastrointestinal tract, skin, lungs, brain, and heart. Radiation protection strategies focus on scavenging ROS, stimulating cellular repair and regeneration, inducing tissue hypoxia, and inhibiting apoptotic pathways. Recent advances in nanomedicine have introduced novel approaches for targeted and efficient radiation protection and treatment. For radiation-induced hematopoietic injury, nanoparticles can been designed to promote red and white blood cell regeneration while reducing oxidative stress. To address radiation-induced gastrointestinal injuries, nanomaterials enable localized antioxidant delivery and extended intestinal retention, effectively relieving radiation enteritis by scavenging ROS and modulating gut microbiota. For radiation-induced skin injuries, self-assembling peptide hydrogels that mimic the extracellular matrix can serve as effective scaffolds for wound healing. These hydrogels exhibit excellent antioxidant properties, stimulating angiogenesis, and accelerating the recovery of radiation dermatitis. In cases of radiation-induced brain damage, nanoparticles were designed to cross the blood-brain barrier to rescue neuronal damage and protect cognitive function. This review provides an in-depth insight into the mechanisms underlying radiation-induced injuries and highlights how nanomaterial were construtced according to the specific injury. Therefore, nanotechnology endowers durgs with transformative potential for preventing and treating radiation-induced injuries. Despite significant progress in nanomedicine, there are still challenges in long-term biocompatibility, precise targeting of damaged tissues, and scalable manufacturing. In addition, an in-depth understanding of the interactions between nanomaterials and biological systems remains to be covered. Future efforts should focus on optimizing design strategies, enhancing clinical translatability, and ensuring long-term safety, ultimately improving patient outcomes. Besides, expanding research into other radiation-induced diseases, such as radiation-induced ophthalmic disorders and hepatic injuries, may diversify therapeutic options.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of thyroid enlargement in school-age children in Tianjin. Methods School-age children were randomly selected in Tianjin to undergo thyroid ultrasound examination, and salt iodine, urine iodine, height, and weight tests. A questionnaire survey was conducted. Univariate and multivariate regression models were used to analyze the risk factors for thyroid enlargement. Results A total of 917 children aged 7-13 years in Tianjin were surveyed, with a thyroid enlargement rate of 4.03% and a median thyroid volume of 2.60 ml. There was a non-linear relationship between children's body mass index (BMI) and the incidence of thyroid enlargement in children (P=0.008), and a linear relationship between children's body surface area (BSA) and the incidence of thyroid enlargement in children (P<0.001). Being 9 years old (OR=3.728, 95%CI: 1.343-10.343, P=0.012), obesity (OR=3.886, 95%CI: 1.801-8.384, P=0.001), having lunch at school (OR=3.157, 95%CI: 1.497-6.658, P=0.003) and frequent consumption of preserved foods (OR=4.611, 95%CI: 1.643-12.945, P=0.004) were risk factors for goiter in children. Regular consumption of seaweed (OR=0.305, 95%CI: 0.100-0.927, P=0.036) was a protective factor for goiter in children. Conclusion The incidence of thyroid enlargement in children in Tianjin meets national standards. Obesity, eating lunch at school, frequently consuming pickled foods, and being 9 years old may be risk factors for thyroid enlargement in children. Eating seaweed or kelp regularly is a protective factor. At the same time, attention should be paid to the relationship between BMI, BSA, and thyroid enlargement rate in children..

Objective To explore the association between different levels of fluoride exposure and dyslipidemia in elderly people, and to analyze the influencing factors and their interactions. Methods A total of 1 143 elderly people over 60 years old were randomly selected from historical high water fluorosis areas and control areas in Tianjin. Logistic regression model and classification tree model were used to analyze the influencing factors of dyslipidemia, and to analyze the interaction between high fluoride exposure and relevant influencing factors on dyslipidemia. Results The prevalence of elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was 5.69% (65/1 143). There was a significant difference in the prevalence of high LDL-C in different fluoride-exposed areas (2 = 0.092，P = 0.762). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that high fluoride exposure (OR=2.306，95%CI：1.185-4.491) and abdominal obesity (OR=2.274，95%CI：1.299-3.978) were risk factors for high LDL-C, while type B personality (OR=0.529，95%CI：0.308-0.908) was a protective factor for high LDL-C. The results of classification tree model showed that abdominal obesity contributed the most to the prevalence of high LDL-C in the elderly, followed by high fluoride exposure and hyperglycemia. There was a significant multiplicative interaction between high fluoride exposure and abdominal obesity on dyslipidemia (OR=5.191,95%CI：1.609-16.745，P=0.006). Conclusion High fluoride exposure may increase the risk of high LDL-C, and there is a multiplicative interaction between high fluoride exposure and abdominal obesity on dyslipidemia.

A significant difference was shown in the model scores of different diameters， epidermis colors and origins（P<0.05）， and the scores of Perillae Caulis with small diameter and purple-brown epidermis from southern area， especially Guangdong， had a high score. ConclusionThere are significant differences in the composition and content of chemical constituents between different diameters， epidermal colors and production areas of Perillae Caulis， samples showing small diameter， owing purple-brown epidermis， and originating from Guangdong were of higher-quality due to their higher content of 8 key indices.

Rheumatoid arthritis （RA） is an autoimmune disease characterized primarily by erosive arthritis， with a high prevalence and disability rate. Although significant progress has been made in the treatment of RA in recent years， challenges such as suboptimal efficacy， drug resistance， severe side effects， and high costs of long-term treatment remain， especially for patients in the early stages of RA， as well as those with RA complications， comorbidities， and severe conditions. Hosted by the China-Japan Friendship Hospital and organized by the Youth Committee of the China Association of Chinese Medicine， the 27^th session of the Clinical Dominant Disease Series （Rheumatoid Arthritis） Youth Salon invited nearly 20 experts and scholars from traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， western medicine， and interdisciplinary fields to actively discuss the clinical needs of modern medicine and the advantageous stages and aspects of TCM in RA. Experts at the salon agreed that TCM has unique advantages in the treatment of RA， especially during the early stage， periods of low to moderate disease activity， remission phase， and in addressing complications and comorbidities. TCM can achieve both prevention and treatment by regulating the immune system and restoring immune homeostasis. The integrated approach of traditional Chinese and western medicine demonstrates significant advantages in active RA， refractory cases， and stages with severe complications， by rapidly controlling disease progression， alleviating symptoms， enhancing the quality of life， and facilitating recovery. Given the frequent occurrence of multiple comorbidities in RA， TCM shows potential in regulating immunity， alleviating symptoms， and improving physical constitution， which provides new insights into the comprehensive treatment of RA with comorbidities. However， high-quality clinical studies on integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in RA are still lacking. It is necessary to establish large-scale clinical cohorts and biological databases to provide a scientific basis for the development of precision-targeted therapies and clinical treatment protocols. In the future， individualized treatment strategies integrating traditional Chinese and western medicine are expected to become an important direction for improving the quality of life in RA patients.
