    Abstract Follicular occlusion tetrad (FOT) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that seriously affects patients' quality of life. At present, there is no standard treatment plan for FOT. We report the case of a 50-year-old male patient diagnosed as having FOT with Fordyce granules and type 2 diabetes mellitus. During hospitalization, the patient received comprehensive and systematic treatment. The patient healed well after surgery and the 10-month follow-up revealed no recurrence. We found eight gene mutations by whole-exome sequencing (WES) of the patient's peripheral blood.

    Abstract A newborn with giant faciocervical mass and presented with asphyxia during birth was admitted to the hospital. After stabilizing her vital sign, we provided the patient with image examinations and whole-exome sequencing, which revealed a heterozygous variation of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). The final diagnosis of the patient was NF1 complicated with neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (NHIE). During hospitalization, the patient received comprehensive and systematic care. There was no reports of similar cases in the literature. So, this report aimed to elucidate the special clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of NF1 complicated with NHIE by analyzing the clinical data of the patient and her family and reviewing relevant literature.

    Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are pervasive pollutants in the natural environment and contribute to increased levels of illness in both animals and humans. However, thespecific impacts of MPs on skin damage and alopeciaare not yet well understood. In this study, we have examined the effects of two types of polystyrene MPs (pristine and aged) on skin and hair follicle damage in mice. UV irradiation changed the chemical and physical properties of the aged MPs, including functional groups, surface roughness, and contact angles. In both in vivo and in vitro experiments, skin and cell injuries related to oxidative stress, apoptosis, tight junctions (TJs), alopecia, mitochondrial dysfunction, and other damages were observed. Mechanistically, MPs and aged MPs can induce TJs damage via the oxidative stress pathway and inhibition of antioxidant-related proteins, and this can lead to alopecia. The regulation of cell apoptosis was also observed, and this is involved in the ROS-mediated mitochondrial signaling pathway. Importantly, aged MPs showed exacerbated toxicity, which may be due to their elevated surface irregularities and altered chemical compositions. Collectively, this study suggests a potential therapeutic approach for alopecia and hair follicle damage caused by MPs pollution.

    Abstract China has now achieved the elimination of malaria, but it still faces severe challenges in the post-elimination stage. China continues to be plagued by imported malaria cases, and preventing re-transmission of imported malaria is critical. The effectiveness of antimalarial drugs for malaria control largely depends on the study of drug resistance markers

    Abstract The imbalance of extrinsic and intrinsic healing of tendon is thought to be the main cause of peritendinous adhesions. In this work, an injectable supramolecular poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl) acrylamide) (PHPAm) hydrogel is prepared merely via side chain hydrogen-bonding crosslinks. This PHPAm exhibits good antifouling and self-healing properties. The supramolecular hydrogel simultaneously loaded with Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles and platelet lysate (PL) is explored as a functional physical barrier, which can significantly resist the adhesion of fibrin and fibroblasts, attenuate the local inflammatory response, and enhance the tenocytes activity, thus balancing extrinsic and intrinsic healing. The PHPAm hydrogel is shown to prevent peritendinous adhesions considerably by inhibiting NF-κB inflammatory pathway and TGF-β1/Smad3-mediated fibrosis pathway, thereby significantly improving tendon repair by releasing bioactive factors to regulate the tenocytes behavior. This work provides a new strategy for developing physical barriers to prevent peritendinous adhesions and promote tissue repair effectively.

    Abstract Passive rehabilitation training in the early poststroke period can promote the reshaping of the nervous system. The trajectory should integrate the physicians' experience and the patient's characteristics. And the training should have high accuracy on the premise of safety. Therefore, trajectory customization, optimization, and tracking control algorithms are conducted based on a new upper limb rehabilitation robot. First, joint friction and initial load were identified and compensated. The admittance algorithm was used to realize the trajectory customization. Second, the improved butterfly optimization algorithm (BOA) was used to optimize the nonuniform rational B-spline fitting curve (NURBS). Then, a variable gain control strategy is designed, which enables the robot to track the trajectory well with small human-robot interaction (HRI) forces and to comply with a large HRI force to ensure safety. Regarding the return motion, an error subdivision method is designed to slow the return movement. The results showed that the customization force is less than 6 N. The trajectory tracking error is within 12 mm without a large HRI force. The control gain starts to decrease in 0.5 s periods while there is a large HRI force, thereby improving safety. With the decrease in HRI force, the real position can return to the desired trajectory slowly, which makes the patient feel comfortable.

    Abstract The interphotoreceptor matrix (IPM) is the extracellular matrix between the photoreceptors and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). The IPM has two proteoglycans: the IPM proteoglycans 1 and 2 (IMPG1 and IMPG2, respectively). Patients with mutations on IMPG2 develop subretinal vitelliform lesions that affect vision. We previously created an IMPG2 knockout (KO) mice model that generates subretinal lesions similar to those found in humans. These subretinal lesions in IMPG2 KO mice retinas are, in part, composed of mislocalized IMPG1. In addition, IMPG2 KO mice show microscopic IMPG1 material accumulation between the RPE and the photoreceptor outer segments. In this work we discuss the possibility that material accumulation on IMPG2 KO mice retinas affects photoreceptor metabolism. To further investigate this idea, we used targeted metabolomics to profile retinal metabolome on IMPG2 KO mice. The metabolite set enrichment analysis showed reduced glutamate metabolism, urea cycle, and galactose metabolism suggesting affected energy metabolism in mice retinas of IMPG2 KO mice with subretinal lesion.
