    Abstract Introduction and importance: Femoral fractures are common in the patients with osteopetrosis and multiple treatment strategies have been described with varying results. However, there is a paucity of literature describing the treatment of recurrent fractures and subsequent deformity.
    Case presentation: We present detailed revision strategies and long-term follow-up results of a patient with osteopetrosis who suffered unsuccessful operative treatment using the plate-screw system (recurrent femoral shaft fracture and implant failure).
    Clinical discussion: The success of revision surgery of osteopetrosis is based on good preoperative planning, appropriate selection of fixation methods, and a meticulous approach during surgery. The combined application of the expert adolescent lateral femoral nail, the reconstruction locked plate, and bone morphogenic protein (BMP)-7 in this patient achieved good clinical results.
    Conclusion: In the treatment of failed plated and recurrent osteopetrotic femoral shaft fractures, the combination of nails and plating presents an alternative, potentially more successful, revision strategy.

    Abstract Objective: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has been observationally associated with endometrial cancer, but the causality remains unclear. Here, we investigated for the first time the causal links between SLE and endometrial cancer risk.
    Methods: Univariable and multivariable Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were conducted to disentangle the causality of SLE with endometrial cancer. Apart from the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method as the primary MR estimate, three complementary MR techniques including weighted median, weighted mode, and MR-Egger regression in univariable MR were conducted to clarify the robustness of the causal estimate and mediation effects of the body mass index (BMI) and were investigated within multivariable MR-IVW and MR-Egger analyses.
    Results: All univariable MR analyses consistently suggested that SLE has a protective effect on the risk of overall endometrial cancer (IVW: OR = 0.956, 95% CI = 0.932-0.981,
    Conclusions: Our findings provide evidence of a significant causal relationship between SLE and decreased endometrial cancer risk. Further understanding of the underlying mechanisms linking SLE with endometrial cancer is therefore needed.

    Abstract Objective: This study was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of intramedullary nailing and a lateral locking plate combined with the reamer-irrigator-aspirator (RIA) bone grafting technique for resistant distal femoral nonunion.
    Methods: This retrospective observational study was performed from January 2018 to December 2021 and involved five patients who presented with resistant distal femoral nonunion despite undergoing several surgeries. They were treated with intramedullary nailing and a lateral locking plate combined with the RIA bone grafting technique. Postoperative follow-up was performed to observe the healing time, and functional outcomes were evaluated using the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS).
    Results: After the patients had been monitored for a mean of 17.9 months, complete bone healing was observed in every patient (mean healing time of 4.8 months). Postoperative wound failure in an older patient was successfully treated with resuturing and nutritional assistance. At the last follow-up, the mean LEFS score was 71.2/80 and the mean knee flexion was 109 degrees.
    Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that combining intramedullary nailing and a lateral locking plate with the RIA bone grafting technique enhances biological properties, provides good structural support, and achieves good union and functional results in the management of resistant nonunion of the distal femur.

    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance: Herb couple Rehmannia glutinosa Libosch and Cornus officinalis Sieb (RC), originated from "Liuwei Dihuang Pill" which recorded in Key to Therapeutics of Children's Diseases. Traditionally, they have been used widely for their ability to nourish yin and energize the kidneys. Our previous study indicated that the RC could protect against adenine induced Chronic kidney disease (CKD) rats. Nevertheless, there is still no clear explanation of the mechanisms by which RC affects renal interstitial fibrosis in CKD rats.
    Aim of the study: Current Work aims to explore the amelioration and potential mechanism of RC on renal interstitial fibrosis in CKD rats.
    Materials and methods: CKD rats were induced by adenine. Two weeks after administration, blood, urine, and kidney tissue were collected for biochemical analysis. Observing the physiological state of rats through the changes of rat body weight and renal index. The pro-inflammatory cytokines were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), while renal tissue damage and fibrosis were assessed with Hematoxylin-eosin staining (H&E) and Masson's trichrome staining. In order to determine the levels of indicators and proteins associated with fibrosis signaling pathways, real time PCR (Rt-PCR), Western blot (WB), and immunofluorescence were employed.
    Results: The renal interstitial fibrosis led to impaired cellular functions with increased the levels of Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Urine protein (UP), Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), and Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-α). and simultaneous up-regulated collagenⅠ(COL-1), fibronection (FN), α-smooth muscle actin (a-SMA), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 and extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK), down-regulated the expression of the E-cadherin proteins. RC notably improved renal dysfunction in CKD rats as indicated by decreases in BUN, UP, and renal index. In addition, consistent with the morphological changes of renal tissue, renal interstitial fibrosis in CKD rats after RC intervention was significantly improved, mainly manifested by a decrease in the positive expression of COL-1, FN, and a-SMA, and increased levels of E-cadherin protein. Meanwhile, RC reduced the classical pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in adenine-induced CKD rats. Additionally, RC administration also down-regulated TGF-β1, JNK, p38 and ERK.
    Conclusion: In conclusion, RC may reduce inflammation in adenine induced CKD rats, improve extracellular matrix (ECM) components deposition, and diminish epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) marker protein levels. Furthermore, RC intervention significantly reduces the release of inflammatory cytokines and inhibits the TGF-β1/MAPK signaling pathway. Based on the results, RC might be useful in the treatment of adenine induced renal fibrosis.

    Abstract Background: Psoriasis is an inflammatory disease that affects many people. However, the causal effect of lipid metabolism on psoriasis has not yet been verified. This study aimed to identify the genetic relationship between serum lipid levels and psoriasis.
    Methods: Bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to analyse the causal relationship between cholesterol and psoriasis. The outcome of the forward causality test was psoriasis. In the analysis of reverse causality, psoriasis was exposed, and 79 single-nucleotide polymorphisms were detected in the genome-wide association study (GWASs) database from the IEU GWASs Project. MR-Egger regression, inverse variance-weighted, weighted median, weighted mode and simple mode were used for the MR analyses.
    Results: The level of triglyceride, lipase member N, chylomicrons, extremely large very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) particles, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels, cholesterol esters in large HDL, cholesterol esters in medium HDL and cholesterol esters in medium VLDL have not affected the development of psoriasis. However, total cholesterol, total free cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, cholesterol esters in large VLDL and cholesterol esters in medium LDL were unidirectional causal effects on psoriasis.
    Conclusion: Bidirectional two-sample MR analysis indicated that high levels of total cholesterol, total free cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, cholesterol esters in large VLDL and cholesterol esters in medium LDL are genetic risk factors for psoriasis.

    Abstract CKD is a clinical syndrome with slow development and gradual deterioration of renal function. At present, modern medicine still lacks an ideal treatment method for this disease, while TCM has accumulated rich clinical experience in the treatment of CKD, which can effectively improve renal function and delay renal failure, and has unique advantages. RC is widely used in clinical practice to treat CKD, especially the "Kidney-Yin" deficiency syndrome. However, the compatibility mechanisms responsible for its effects in experimental studies, including preclinical and clinical research studies, are still not fully understood. Adenine-induced CKD rats were used to investigate the preventive effect of RC on CKD rats. Based on the high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing results from Illumina, we discussed the intestinal flora abundance in rats in different treatment groups. According to a PCA and a PCoA based on a distance matrix, there was a clear separation of gut microbiome profiles between normal rats and model rats in terms of beta diversity. The abundance of Firmicutes in CKD rats was relatively increased, while that of Bacteroidetes was decreased. It is clear that the plot for the RC group was closer to that of the normal group, suggesting that the RC group had higher similarities among bacterial members with N rats. Ussing chamber, Western blot, and PCR assays were used to investigate the effects of RC on intestinal barrier function and its molecular mechanism in model animals. The results indicated that the protein expressions of ZO-1, claudin-1, and occludin-1 were decreased significantly in chronic kidney disease rats with the induction of adenine. With the treatment of RG, CO, and RC, the intestinal barrier was repaired due to the upregulated expressions of the aforementioned proteins in CKD rats. Based on our findings, RC appears to strengthen the intestinal barrier and modulate gut microbiota in adenine-induced CKD rats. This project revealed the compatibility mechanism of RC in regulating the intestinal microecology and barrier function to intervene in CKD and provided the basis and ideas for the clinical application of RC and the development of innovative drugs for CKD.
