A case report on multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency with severe myopathy and osteoporosis.

A 35-year-old male patient presented fluctuating bilateral lower extremity weakness for 3 years. Physical examination showed grade 4 proximal muscle weakness in both lower extremities and grade 5 distal muscle weakness. Laboratory data revealed elevated creatine kinase, triglycerides, and cholesterol.

The Role of Gene Mediates P38 MAPK/JNK Pathway in Testicular Spermatogenic Dysfunction Caused by Cyfluthrin.

In recent years, male infertility has received global attention and seriously affected the quality of human fertility, and pyrethroids (type II pyrethroids), as recognized environmental endocrine disruptors, may threaten male reproductive health. Therefore, in this study, we established an in vivo model for the development of testicular and germ cell toxicity induced by cyfluthrin and explored the role and mechanism of the gene-mediated P38 MAPK/JNK pathway in testicular and germ cell damage caused by cyfluthrin to find early and sensitive indicators and new therapeutic targets for the development of testicular damage. Firstly, 40 male Wistar rats (about 260 g) were divided into a control group (corn oil), low dose group (6.

The role of stimulator of interferon genes-mediated AMPK/mTOR/P70S6K autophagy pathway in cyfluthrin-induced testicular injury.

Cyfluthrin is widely used in the field of sanitary pest control by its wide insecticidal spectrum, high efficiency and low toxicity, low residue, and good biodegradability. But, as a double-edged sword, a large amount of cyfluthrin remains are still in the environment. The residual cyfluthrin is absorbed into the food chain through vegetation and then poses a risk to soil organisms and human health.

Ankylosing spondylitis with Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease: A case report with literature review.

We present the case of a patient diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) along with Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD), possibly triggered by infection or autoimmunity. Both AS and KFD involved a similar immune pathway. Hence, clinicians should consider the possibility of KFD when lymphadenopathy is observed, especially in patients with infection or underlying autoimmune diseases.

Case report: Successful treatment with tofacitinib and colchicine in a patient with Schnitzler syndrome.

We report a case of late-onset Schnitzler syndrome successfully treated with Janus-activated kinase (JAK) inhibitors and colchicine. Schnitzler syndrome should be considered for recurrent chronic urticaria when accompanied by fever, fatigue, rapid weight loss, and poor response to antihistamine treatment. Skin biopsy, bone marrow biopsy, and electrophoresis help confirm the diagnosis.

Serum Levels of Mitochondrial Fission- and Fusion-Related Genes of Coal Workers' Pneumoconiosis and Risk Factor Analysis Based on a Generalized Linear Model.

Objective: We aimed to explore the risk factors for coal workers' pneumoconiosis and to further explore the significance of mitochondrial fission and fusion factors in CWP and verify the feasibility of mitochondrial fission and fusion factors as diagnostic and therapeutic targets.

Methods: The data of 168 cases were collected, and they were divided into a healthy control group (40 cases), dust exposure control group (61 cases), and CWP group (67 cases) and entered into SPSS 24.0.

A novel iodine-mediated tandem cyclization-cycloaddition reaction leading to polyoxacyclic ring systems.

A novel iodine-catalyzed tandem cyclization-cycloaddition reaction of ortho-alkynyl-substituted benzaldehydes leading to polyoxacyclic ring systems has been developed, which represents a useful approach towards the synthesis of the oxabicyclo-[3.2.1]octane ring skeleton found in a variety of natural products.

Copper-catalyzed [4 + 1] cycloadditions of alpha,beta-acetylenic ketones with diazoacetates to form trisubstituted furans.

Copper-catalyzed [4 + 1] cycloaddition reaction of alpha,beta-acetylenic ketones with alpha-diazo esters offers an efficient, direct route to highly substituted furans. The reaction conditions and the scope of the process are examined, and a possible mechanism is proposed.
