Rare multiple schwannomas of the left upper extremity: A case report.

Schwannomas are rare benign neoplasms originating from Schwann cells of peripheral nerve sheaths. The current study presents a distinctive case involving multiple schwannomas along the peripheral nerves of the left upper extremity. The patient exhibited multiple gradually enlarging subcutaneous masses distributed along the nerves of the left upper limb, without pain, neurological deficits or a positive Tinel's sign upon physical examination.

Single-cell RNA landscape of osteoimmune microenvironment in osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture and Kümmell's disease.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) enables specific analysis of cell populations at single-cell resolution; however, there is still a lack of single-cell-level studies to characterize the dynamic and complex interactions between osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) and Kümmell's disease (KD) in the osteoimmune microenvironment. In this study, we used scRNA-seq analysis to investigate the osteoimmune microenvironment and cellular composition in OVCFs and KD. ScRNA-seq was used to perform analysis of fractured vertebral bone tissues from one OVCF and one KD patients, and a total of 8,741 single cells were captured for single-cell transcriptomic analysis.

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Reveals the Difference in Human Normal and Degenerative Nucleus Pulposus Tissue Profiles and Cellular Interactions.

The nucleus pulposus is a constituent structure of the human intervertebral disc, and its degeneration can cause intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved remain elusive. Through bioinformatics analysis, the single-cell transcriptome sequencing expression profiles of human normal nucleus pulposus (NNP) cells and human degenerative nucleus pulposus (DNP) cells were compared to clarify the transcriptome differential expression profiles of human NNP and DNP.

[Therapeutic efficacy of compound Xuanju capsule on type III prostatitis].

Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Compound Xuanju Capsule on type III prostatitis.

Methods: A total of 242 patients with type III prostatitis diagnosed by the NIH criteria were randomly divided into an experimental and a control group of equal number, the former treated with Compound Xuanju Capsule + Tamsulosin Hydrochloride, and the latter with Quinolinone antibiotics + Tamsulosin and Hydrochloride, both for 6 months. After treatment, we assessed the therapeutic effects based on the NIH-CPSI scores and the improvement of relevant complications.
