Historically, the weighing out and manipulation of dangerous chemicals frequently occurred without adequate protection from inhalation or accidental ingestion. The use of gloves, eye protection using goggles, masks or visors was scant. From Canary Girls and chimney sweeps to miners, stone cutters and silo fillers, these are classic exemplars of the subtle (and in some cases not so subtle) effects that substances, environments and practices can have on individual health.

Department of Pediatric Neurology, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, Henan 450052, China.
Objective: To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of two children diagnosed with two rare genetic diseases simultaneously.
Methods: Two children with comorbidity of two genetic diseases due to dual genetic mutations diagnosed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University respectively in May 2022 and March 2023 were selected as the study subjects.

Effect of Prior Bariatric Surgery on the Outcomes of Joint Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
J Invest Surg
December 2025
Department of Orthopaedics, Changxing County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Huzhou, Zhejiang, China.
Objective: Obesity is a risk factor for joint arthroplasty complications. With this systematic review and meta-analysis, we assessed whether a positive history of bariatric surgery influences postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing various types of joint arthroplasty.
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search database such as Scopus, PubMed, Medline Ovid, CNKI, and CENTRAL for studies comparing outcomes between patients undergoing arthroplasty with and without a history of bariatric surgery.
Short- and Long-Term Efficacy of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Irradiated Breast Cancer Patients With Long-Standing Lymphedema: A Prospective Case Series.
Cancer Rep (Hoboken)
January 2025
Neuro-Mobility Unit, Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai, Thailand.
Background: Several studies have explored the advantage of treatment with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) for upper extremity lymphedema in irradiated breast cancer patients and reported controversial results. This prospective case series aimed to document the short- and long-term efficacy of this therapy, focusing on the arm volume and functional assessment in breast cancer patients with a history of long-standing lymphedema for more than 2 years.
Case: Six breast cancer patients with long-standing lymphedema were enrolled.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is characterized as a heterogeneous and pathological remodeling of brain physiology because of various external mechanisms, including blows, falls, and rapid acceleration and deceleration of the skull. Its pathophysiology consists of two distinct moments, beginning with a primary lesion resulting from the impact that evolves into a secondary lesion as biochemical and molecular mechanisms are activated. The severity and prognosis after TBI vary widely, depending on factors such as the site of the injury, the patient's premorbid history, and the severity of the injury, and can result in long-term sequelae impacting multiple organs and systems, with a reduction in the life expectancy of these individuals.
