As seniors age, they are more prone to bone loss and may experience vertebral compression fractures due to osteoporosis from falls or lifting heavy objects. While current medical treatments involve injecting bone cement to alleviate the pain of these fractures, patients with a history of sciatica, bone spurs, or previous spinal surgery with steel implants may face challenges in the treatment process. Therefore, orthopedic doctors emphasize the importance of bone density and fall prevention, especially for elderly individuals, and caution against rushing into bone cement injections without careful evaluation by a physician. Dr. Rong Zhi-Xiong from Dachien Medical Center highlights the significance of early bone health maintenance to prevent fractures and advises adopting a healthy lifestyle, adequate calcium and protein intake, sun exposure for vitamin D3, regular exercise, weight management, and muscle strength improvement to ensure bone density and overall skeletal health from a young age.

A federal judge in Louisiana has halted President Biden's temporary moratorium on new licenses for US liquefied natural gas exports following a lawsuit by 16 states. The judge's decision, described as a 'big win' by the Attorney General of West Virginia, is seen as a victory for the energy industry and job creation. While climate activists argue that LNG exports contribute to global warming, US gas producers warn that the licensing hiatus could harm American allies and billions of dollars in export projects. Despite the court order lifting the pause, practical impacts may be minimal as the Department of Energy continues to evaluate export proposals for public interest.
