Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective The aim of this study was to explore the acceptance and influencing factors of self-collected urine samples for human papillomavirus(HPV)testing in cervical cancer screening among eligible women,and to provide scientific evidence for promoting this testing in low resource areas.Methods A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted from 2022 to 2023 at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital in Shuangliu district,Chengdu City Sichuan Province.The study subjects were women aged 21 to 69 years old,and a customized questionnaire was used to conduct general information and acceptance surveys on the partic-ipants.Results A total of 2,062 women were included,with an average age of 51.58±9.34 years.Among them,1,501(72.79％)women believed that self-sampling urine was very easy.However,although 1,333(64.65％)women were still willing to accept doctor sampling as a cervical cancer screening method,only 729(35.35％)were more willing to accept self-sampling urine HPV testing.Age,educational level,annual household income,awareness of HPV,HPV vaccination status,and a sense of shame about the doctor's sampling process were all associated with the acceptance of self-collected urine HPV testing among women undergoing cervical cancer screening(P＜0.001).The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that older women(OR=0.965,95％CI:0.951-0.979)and those who were not familiar with HPV(OR=0.760,95％CI:0.602-0.961)were more likely to undergo self sampling urine HPV testing,while those with junior high school education(OR=1.330,95％CI:1.053-1.682),high school education or a-bove(OR=1.990,95％CI:1.401-2.827),and a sense of shame towards the doctor's sampling process(OR=2.314,95％CI:1.706-3.142)were more likely to undergo self sampling urine for HPV testing.Conclusions Most women believe that self sampling urine for HPV testing is very easy,but compared to doctor sampling,only some women choose to self sample urine for HPV testing.Key health education interventions should be carried out for older and lower educated populations to promote acceptance of urine HPV testing.

Objectives:To explore the risk factors of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) related myocarditis and establish a predictive model.Methods:This was a retrospective case-control study. Tumor patients diagnosed with ICI related myocarditis in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from May 2019 to August 2023 were selected and divided into non-MACE group and MACE group based on whether MACE occurred. Clinical and imaging data of the two groups were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk factors for MACE in patients with ICI related myocarditis. According to the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis, R 4.1.0 software was used to construct the MACE risk prediction model for these patients and draw a nomogram. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the prediction ability of the prediction model.Results:A total of 35 patients with ICI related myocarditis, aged (63.9±8.2) years, were included, including 28 males (80%). There were 18 patients in the non-MACE group and 17 patients in the MACE group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that elevated neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio ( OR=1.115, 95% CI 1.007-1.235, P=0.036) and ST-T segment changes ( OR=24.942, 95% CI 1.239-502.194, P=0.036) were risk factors for MACE in patients with ICI related myocarditis. The receiver operating characteristic curve indicated that the area under the curve of the prediction model was 0.967 (95% CI 0.916-1.000, P<0.001), with a sensitivity of 88.2% and specificity of 100%, demonstrating good predictive ability. Conclusion:Elevated neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and ST-T segment change are independent risk factors for MACE in patients with ICI related myocarditis. Risk prediction model based on the above two indicators can assist in the early identification and individualized intervention of ICI related myocarditis patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of Tongsheng Prescription on trimethylamine N-oxide(TMAO)and related metabolites substrate in patients with acute cerebral infarction after intervention and to evaluate its clinical efficacy.Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted in 48 patients with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion(AIS-LVO)who had received endovascular treatment(EVT).The patients were divided into an observation group(25 cases)and a control group(23 cases).After emergency EVT,the control group was treated with routine western medicine,and the observation group was treated with nasogastric feeding or oral use of Tongsheng Prescription on the basis of treatment for the control group.The course of treatment lasted for seven days,and then the patients were followed up for three months.Before operation,7 days and 90 days after operation,National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)scores in the two groups were observed.The functional prognosis evaluated with Modified Rankin Scale(MRS)scores was compared between the two groups,and the effects of Tongsheng Prescription on serum TM AO and related metabolites choline,betaine and L-carnitine were investigated.Results(1)On the postoperative day 7 and 90,the NIHSS scores of the two groups were decreased compared with those before operation(P＜0.01),and the decrease of NIHSS scores on the postoperative day 7 and 90 in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).(2)On the postoperative day 90,the rate of good functional outcome in the observation group was 96.00％(24/25),which was significantly higher than 69.57％(16/23)in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).(3)On the postoperative day 7 and 90,the levels of TMAO,L-carnitine and betaine in the observation group tended to decrease compared with those before operation,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).However,the levels of TMAO,L-carnitine and betaine in the control group were significantly increased compared with those before operation(P＜0.01).On the postoperative day 7,the levels of TMAO,L-carnitine and betaine in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).(4)Spearman correlation analysis showed that TMAO was positively correlated with NIHSS score,L-carnitine and choline(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion Tongsheng Prescription has a significant effect on AIS-LVO patients seven days after EVT.The Prescription is beneficial to obtain a good functional outcome,and its mechanism may be related to the decrease of TMAO level through L-carnitine and betaine pathways,so as to improve the neurological deficit symptoms of stroke patients.

Objective To report the clinical and imaging characteristics of a case with the clinical manifestation of multiple lung and liver nodules,diagnosed as IgG4-related hepatic inflammatory pseudotumor(HIPT)complicated by hepatic tissue-infection,and review the literature in order to facilitate clinical diagnosis and differential identification of IgG4-related HIPT.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of a patient with IgG4-related disease(IgG4-RD)characterized by multiple lung and liver nodules.A literature review was performed by searching Chinese and English databases to summarize the clinical and imaging characteristics of IgG4-related HIPT and hepatic tissue infection.Results The case involved a 64-year-old female admitted to the Rheumatology and Immunology Department of the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital due to"poor appetite and fatigue for over a year,and dry cough for four months".She presented with multiple nodules in the lungs and liver,without involvement of the eyelids,salivary glands,submandibular glands,or pancreas.Laboratory test results revealed elevated serum IgG4 levels at 14.1 g/L and C-reactive protein(CRP)at 82.1 mg/L.Pulmonary CT scans indicated multiple solid nodules in both lungs with clear boundaries.Abdominal contrast-enhanced MRI revealed a nodule in liver segment S7 with a pseudocapsule around it,clear boundaries,and uniform enhancement;another nodule in liver segment S5 with blurred boundaries and ring enhancement.The final diagnosis of the liver nodules was confirmed by pathological and metagenomic sequencing to be an IgG4-related HIPT in segment S7 and hepatic tissue infection in segment S5.After a full course of anti-infection and treatment with methylprednisolone and leflunomide,follow-up imaging showed near-complete resolution of the lung and liver nodules.Literatures were searched in China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang,and PubMed databases(up to September 2023),and no case of IgG4-RD complicated with both liver involvement and infection was found.A total of 26 cases of IgG4-RD involving the liver have been reported so far,predominantly in males(92.3%),with an average age of 51 years.Most patients presented with abnormal liver function as the initial symptom,with normal blood inflammatory markers.Imaging typically shows a single nodule in 88.5%of cases,with clear boundaries and uniform enhancement,as well as ring enhancement.Concurrent involvement of the pancreas and biliary tract is common.Pathology is the gold standard for confirming the disease.Conclusions This case reports coexistence of IgG4-related HIPT and infection within multiple hepatic nodules.In the diagnosis and treatment of patients with IgG4-RD presenting with multiple hepatic nodules,if the imaging characteristics of the nodules are inconsistent,it is necessary to consider the possibility of the underlying disease coexisting with other conditions,which can be easily misdiagnosed.Actively obtaining pathological tissue is crucial for aiding in the definitive diagnosis.

Objective To monitor the antifungal resistance of clinical isolates of Candida spp.in the East China region.Methods MALDI-TOF MS or molecular methods were used to re-identify the strains collected from January 2018 to December 2022.Antifungal susceptibility testing was performed using the broth microdilution method.The susceptibility test results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of 2022 Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)documents M27 M44s-Ed3 and M57s-Ed4.Results A total of 3 026 strains of Candida were collected,65.33％of which were isolated from sterile body sites,mainly from blood(38.86％)and pleural effusion/ascites(10.21％).The predominant species of Candida were Candida albicans(44.51％),followed by Candida parapsilosis complex(19.46％),Candida tropicalis(13.98％),Candida glabrata(10.34％),and other Candida species(0.79％).Candida albicans showed overall high susceptibility rates to the 10 antifungal drugs tested(the lowest rate being 93.62％).Only 2.97％of the strains showed dose-dependent susceptibility(SDD)to fluconazole.Candida parapsilosis complex had a SDD rate of 2.61％and a resistance rate of 9.42％to fluconazole,and susceptibility rates above 90％to other drugs.Candida glabrata had a SDD rate of 92.01％and a resistance rate of 7.99％to fluconazole,resistance rates of 32.27％and 48.24％to posaconazole and voriconazole non-wild-type strains(NWT),respectively,and susceptibility rates above 90％to other drugs.Candida tropicalis had resistance rates of 29.55％and 26.24％to fluconazole and voriconazole,respectively,resistance rates of 76.60％and 21.99％to posaconazole and echinocandins non-wild-type strains(NWT),and a resistance rate of 2.36％to echinocandins.Conclusions The prevalence and species distribution of Candida spp.in the East China region are consistent with previous domestic and international reports.Candida glabrata exhibits certain degree of resistance to fluconazole,while Candida tropicalis demonstrates higher resistance to triazole drugs.Additionally,echinocandins resistance has emerged in Candida albicans,Candida glabrata,Candida tropicalis,and Candida parapsilosis.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of moxibustion on the stem cell factor (SCF)/tyrosine kinase receptor (c-kit) signaling pathway and immune function in rats with diarrhea irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D), and to explore the mechanism of moxibustion for IBS-D. METHODS: Among 52 young rats born from 6 healthy pregnant SPF rats, 12 rats were randomly selected into the normal group, and the remaining 40 rats were treated with the three-factor combination method of maternal separation, acetic acid enema and chronic restraint stress to establish the IBS-D rat model. Thirty-six rats with successful IBS-D model were randomly divided into a model group, a moxibustion group, and a medication group, 12 rats in each group. The rats in the moxibustion group were treated with suspension moxibustion at "Tianshu" (ST 25) and "Shangjuxu" (ST 37); the rats in the medication group were treated with intragastric administration of rifaximin suspension (150 mg/kg). All the treatments were given once a day for 7 consecutive days. The body mass, loose stool rate (LSR), the minimum volume threshold when abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR) scored 3 were measured before acetic acid enema (35 days old), after modeling (45 days old), and after intervention (53 days old). After intervention (53 days old), HE staining was used to observe the morphology of colon tissue, and spleen and thymus coefficients were measured; ELISA method was used to detect serum inflammatory factors (tumor necrosis factor a [TNF-a], interleukin [IL]-10, IL-8), T-lymphocyte subsets (CD⁺₄, CD⁺₈, CD⁺₄₅), value of CD⁺₄/CD⁺₈ and immune globulin (IgA, IgG, IgM); real-time PCR method and Western blot method was used to detect the expression of SCF, c-kit mRNA and protein in colon tissue; immunofluorescence staining method were used to detect positive expression of SCF and c-kit. RESULTS: After intervention, compared with the normal group, in the model group, the body mass and the minimum volume threshold when AWR scored 3 were decreased (P<0.01), LSR, spleen and thymus coefficients, serum levels of TNF-α, IL-8, CD⁺₄, CD⁺₄₅, CD⁺₄/CD⁺₈, IgA, IgG, IgM were increased (P<0.01), serum IL-10 level and protein and mRNA expression of SCF and c-kit in colon tissue were decreased (P<0.01), and the positive expression of SCF and c-kit was decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, in the moxibustion group and the medication group, the body mass and the minimum volume threshold when AWR scored 3 were increased (P<0.01, P<0.05), LSR, spleen and thymus coefficients, serum levels of TNF-α, IL-8, CD⁺₄, CD⁺₈, CD⁺₄₅, CD⁺₄/CD⁺₈, IgA, IgG, IgM were decreased (P<0.01, P<0.05), serum IL-10 level and protein and mRNA expression of SCF and c-kit in colon tissue were increased (P<0.01), and the positive expression of SCF and c-kit was increased (P<0.01). Compared with the medication group, in the moxibustion group, the level of serum CD⁺₄ was decreased (P<0.05), the value of CD⁺₄/CD⁺₈ was increased (P<0.01), and there was no significant difference in other indexes (P>0.05). The expression of SCF and c-kit mRNA was positively correlated with the minimum volume threshold when AWR scored 3 and IL-10 (P<0.01), and negatively correlated with remaining indexes (P<0.01, P<0.05). CONCLUSION Moxibustion could reduce visceral hypersensitivity, improve symptoms of abdominal pain and diarrhea in IBS-D rats, and its mechanism may be related to up-regulation of the expression of SCF/c-kit signaling pathway and improvement of IBS-D immune function.
