Background: Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a rare disease. The variable clinical manifestations make the diagnosis of ALGS difficult. This study aimed to provide a basis for the early diagnosis of ALGS patients whose clinical identification is difficult and to enrich the spectrum of genetic variants implicated in Chinese children with ALGS.

This case report describes a 15-year-old male with multifocal osteochondromatous proliferation and paraneoplastic hematologic dyscrasia, linked to latent Epstein-Barr virus reactivation. Radiographic and advanced imaging revealed widespread skeletal lesions consistent with osteochondromatosis. Hematologic evaluation indicated pancytopenia with dysplastic megakaryocytes and marrow infiltration.

Metabolic abnormalities associated with excess adiposity in obesity contribute to many noncommunicable diseases, including sarcopenic obesity. Sarcopenic obesity is the loss of muscle mass coupled with excess fat mass and fatty infiltrations in muscle tissue called myosteatosis. A diet-induced obesity model was developed to study fat infiltration in muscle tissue.

Aims: Ultrasound-guided injection techniques are expected to enhance therapeutic efficacy for skeletal muscle injuries and disorders, but basic knowledge is lacking. The purpose of this study was to examine the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound for abnormal skeletal muscle lesions, and to examine the distribution patterns of solution and cells injected into abnormal muscle lesions under ultrasound guidance.
Methods: A cardiotoxin (CTX)-induced muscle injury model was used.

Rippling Muscle Disease (RMD) is a rare skeletal myopathy characterized by abnormal muscular excitability manifesting with wave-like muscle contractions and percussion-induced muscle mounding. Hereditary RMD is associated with caveolin-3 or cavin-1 mutations. Recently, we identified cavin 4 autoantibodies as a biomarker of immune-mediated RMD (iRMD), though the underlying disease-mechanisms remain poorly understood.
