A case of Preiser's disease treated with closing radial wedge osteotomy is reviewed and the therapeutic effect is reported. A good result was obtained in the short term and we believe that this surgical method could become one of the choices for surgical treatment to alleviate pain in Preiser's disease.

Background: Exposure-related changes in exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and sputum eosinophils have not been thoroughly compared in the investigation of occupational asthma.
Objective: This study aimed at comparing the accuracies of the changes in FeNO concentrations and sputum eosinophil counts in identifying asthmatic reactions induced by occupational agents during specific inhalation challenges (SICs).
Methods: This retrospective multicenter study included 321 subjects who completed an assessment of FeNO and sputum eosinophils before and 24 h after SICs with various occupational agents, of whom 156 showed a positive result.

Chronic Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection remains a significant public health concern, particularly in Africa, where the burden is substantial. HBV is an enveloped virus, classified into ten phylogenetically distinct genotypes (A-J). Tests to determine HBV genotypes are based on full-genome sequencing or reverse hybridization.

Article Synopsis
- Preiser disease is challenging due to its unclear causes and lack of consensus on the best treatment methods, prompting this study to examine treatment choices based on patient characteristics.
- The study analyzed nine patients treated for Preiser disease, separating them into elderly and nonelderly groups, and assessed their disease stages and treatment methods.
- Findings revealed that elderly patients often presented with advanced disease and commonly received nonsurgical treatment, while nonelderly patients were more likely to be in the early stages and received a mix of treatments, including both surgical and nonsurgical options.
