Background: Nonossifying fibroma is common in children and adolescents, and nonossifying fibroma with genu valgum is rare in the clinic. This article evaluated the effectiveness of treatment in a case of nonossifying fibroma of the lower femur with genu valgum.
Case Presentation: A 16-year-old girl complained of pain in the lower part of her right thigh for one year.
Osteosarcoma typically occurs in adolescents, and the survival rate of patients with metastatic and recurrent osteosarcoma remains low. Abnormal regulation of alternative splicing is associated with the development of osteosarcoma. However, there is no genome-wide analysis of the function and regulatory mechanisms of aberrant alternative splicing associated with osteosarcoma.

Methods: The clinical data of 4 patients with huge tumors in the chest wall from July 2015 to January 2020 were collected and analyzed. There were 2 males and 2 females.
Osteosarcoma (OS) is a prevalent primary bone sarcoma. Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) is dysregulated in human malignancies. This study explored the mechanism of METTL3 in OS cell proliferation.

The relevant anatomic MRI data from 30 normal adult shoulder joints were measured to analyze the feasibility of the modified type V resection method for malignant bone tumors of the proximal humerus. Sixteen patients with malignant bone tumors of the proximal humerus were treated with modified radical resection between March 2012 and April 2017.

It has been reported that oxidized low-density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) can increase the expression of adipophilin. However, the detailed mechanisms are not fully understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of Ox-LDL on adipophilin expression and the intracellular lipid droplet accumulation.

Methods: B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin (LTB) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae Porin B (PorB) fusion gene, LTB gene and PorB gene were cloned into prokaryotic vector pET-30a. The recombinants were identified by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing, and then expressed efficiently in Escherichia coli BL21 in the form of inclusion bodies.
