Introduction: Lipid metabolism disorder is one of the components of the metabolic syndrome in chronic renal failure patients, where cardiovascular complications are the main cause of mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study is to determine the lipid profile of chronic hemodialysis patients in order to propose appropriate management to prevent cardiovascular complications.
Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective descriptive study at the biochemistry laboratory of Avicenne Military Hospital in Marrakech over a period of 6 months (December 2023 - March 2024). We compared lipid parameters between a group of 20 chronic hemodialysis patients and a group of 20 control subjects. The following parameters were analyzed: age, gender, initial nephropathy, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
Results: Lipid disturbances were highly prevalent among the hemodialysis population (85%). The most common alteration was decreased HDL-C (75%), along with elevated TG levels (45%). The atherogenic index (AI) was high with a mean of 5.24 in the hemodialysis group. We observed a significant increase in TG levels and a decrease in HDL-C in the hemodialysis group compared to the control group. The AI was significantly higher.

Fluorescence imaging technology is a research hotspot in recent years. This detection technology uses non-invasive, highly selective, high-sensitivity, and real-time detection responsive fluorescent probes to monitor atopic factors and provide information on the dynamics of related biological, physiological and biochemical activities. Monitoring provided technical support. ROS (reactive oxygen species), RNS (reactive nitrogen species), RSS (Reactive sulfur species), abnormal microenvironment, enzyme activity, etc. have been proven to be closely related to many pathophysiological processes including inflammation. An intuitive understanding of their dynamic development provides new ideas for disease diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment. This review classifies different inflammatory factors that are targeted by fluorescent probes, summarizes the examples and applications of fluorescent probes for monitoring inflammation in living animals in recent years, discusses the limitations of existing strategies, and the implications of new strategies for in vivo visualization of inflammation in the future.

The temporomandibular joint is an important part of the oral and maxillofacial system. It participates in functional movements such as chewing, facial expressions, and swallowing, and maintains the health of the oral and maxillofacial system together with nerves and muscles. Orthodontic treatment is the main means of clinical prevention and treatment of malocclusion. It is still controversial whether it affects the stability of temporomandibular joint structure and function, the growth and reconstruction of condyle, and thus affects facial type, occlusion and oral and maxillofacial system function. Therefore, based on the influence of orthodontic treatment on the growth, reconstruction and stress of temporomandibular joint, this paper reviews the related research.
