The theory on four seas is a kind of view to explain the longitudinal and horizontal distribution relationship of meridians and collaterals by ancient scholars. The authors were attempted to explore it by taking the theory on sea of marrow as example in terms of literature analysis. In (Chapter 33 of ), it is recorded that sea of marrow flows into two locations, but they are not the acupoint sites for treatment. Based on the comprehensive literature investigation, it is known that such two sites to which sea of marrow flows refer to a kind of boundaries so that the range of sea of marrow is determined, the function of it explored, and the controversy on "heart dominating mind" and "brain governing spirit" solved. It is defined that the function of sea of marrow is the macro-conception of (mind, spirit) that is modulated by vital movement information. Additionally, in association with meridian literature analysis, as well as acupoint textual research, it finally focuses on Naohu (GV 17) that is the critical point in the application of the theory on sea of marrow. In clinical application of such theory, the importance should be attached to the governor vessel, Naohu (GV 17) and their spatial system of bone.

Chronic high-altitude hypoxia (CHH) induces irreversible abnormalities in various organisms. Emerging evidence indicates that CHH markedly suppresses bone mass and bone strength. Targeting senescent cells and the consequent senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) with senolytics is a recently developed novel therapy for multiple age-related diseases.

Through collecting the relevant records of "brain" in ancient traditional Chinese medicine literature, the potential structure and function of the "motor system of brain-meridian-muscle region" and "perception system of brain-meridian-cutaneous region" of the human body are analyzed preliminarily. In view of the characteristics of the symptoms of stroke sequela, focusing on the differentiation of disease location and associated with the identification of disease property, the pathogenesis of stroke is determined, "malnutrition of the sea of marrow, dysfunction of meridian muscle region and disharmony of the nutrient and the defensive in the meridian cutaneous region", while, the basic principle of treatment is formulated, "filling up the marrow, replenishing the brain, regulating meridian muscle regions, tonifying and facilitating blood circulation in meridians and collaterals". Based on the above, the acupoints selected in treatment and the techniques of acupuncture and moxibustion are clarified.

Article Synopsis
- * The case study illustrates a patient with kappa chain myeloma who exhibited Gaucher-like crystal-storing histiocytosis in bone marrow, identified through various methods including biopsy and next generation sequencing (NGS).
- * Findings indicated the presence of distinct rhomboid crystals and several genetic mutations linked to poorer survival rates in myeloma patients, suggesting that pathologists should consider crystal-storing histiocytosis when identifying such crystals in bone marrow.
