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:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral anisodine hydrobromide tablets in the treatment of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).Methods:A multicenter nonrandomized controlled trial was conducted.A total of 282 acute NAION patients (282 eyes) were recruited from 16 hospitals in China from July 2020 to May 2021.Patients were divided into two groups according to treatment methods, which were control group (124 cases, 124 eyes) receiving regular treatment including citicoline sodium plus Ginkgo biloba leaf liquid extract or Ginkgo biloba leaf extract tablets plus mecobalamin, and experimental group (158 cases, 158 eyes) receiving treatment in control group plus oral anisodine hydrobromide tablets 1 mg, twice daily for 2 to 3 months.Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), visual field index (VFI), peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) and radial peripapillary capillary vessel density (RPC) were assessed at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months after enrollment using the standard decimal visual acuity chart, 750i Humphery visual field analyzer, Cirrus HD-OCT 4000/Cirrus HD-OCT 5000, RTVue-XR optical coherence tomography respectively.The primary outcomes were BCVA and VFI, and the secondary outcomes were pRNFL, RPC, and the side effects during the follow-up.The study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.All patients were fully informed about the treatment and purpose of this study and voluntarily signed the informed consent form.The study protocol was approved by Chinese PLA General Hospital (No.S2020-021-01). Results:In all, 242 patients (242 eyes) completed the follow-up of BCVA, and 98 patients (98 eyes) completed the VFI follow-up.In terms of visual function, BCVA and VFI improved significantly over time in the two groups, and BCVA and VFI were better in experimental group than in control group at various follow-up time points (all at P<0.05). In terms of structure, pRNFL gradually decreased in both groups with the extension of treatment, and pRNFL was significanthy thinner in experimental group than in control group at various follow-up time points (all at P<0.05). There was no significant difference in RPC between the two groups at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). There were two cases with side effects and one case was discontinued due to side effects 25 days after enrollment. Conclusions:Oral anisodine hydrobromide can improve visual acuity and visual field in NAION and accelerate the regression of optic disc edema, with good safety.

Objective:To investigate the effects of tibial second toe free flap bridged with blood flow and nerve in the treatment of severe flexion contracture of the proximal interphalangeal joint.Methods:A retrospective observational study was conducted. From March 2013 to October 2019, 9 patients with severe flexion contracture (type Ⅲ) of the proximal interphalangeal joint after trauma operation, conforming to the inclusion criteria, were hospitalized in Suzhou Ruihua Orthopaedic Hospital, including 5 males and 4 females, aged from 17 to 62 years. After the contracture tissue affecting the extension of the proximal interphalangeal joint was cut off, and the scar tissue was resected, the size of the volar wound near the proximal interphalangeal joint in extended position was 2.0 cm×1.0 cm-2.5 cm×1.5 cm, with the length of proper digital artery and nerve defect being 1.0-1.5 cm. A free flap of the same size as the wound was cut from the tibial side of the second toe and transplanted to repair the wound, and the defective proper digital artery and nerve was repaired by bridging with the tibial proper plantar digital artery and nerve of about 1.5 cm in length. The full-thickness skin graft was taken from the proximal tibial side of the lower leg to repair the wound at flap donor site. The wound at skin graft donor site was sutured directly. The survival of flap and skin graft was observed after operation. The patients were followed up, and at the last follow-up, the recovery of the affected finger and the second toe, including the donor and recipient areas were observed, the two-point discrimination distances of the flap repaired site and the pulp of the affected finger were observed and measured at the same time, the blood flow patency of bridged vessel of the affected finger was examined by Allen test, and the function of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the affected finger was evaluated according to Chinese Medical Association's standard for the range of motion of proximal interphalangeal joint.Results:The flaps and skin grafts survived smoothly after operation. The follow-up after operation lasted for 5 to 22 months, with a mean of 10 months. At the last follow-up, the flap repaired site had good shape, good color and texture, with the two-point discrimination distance being 9-12 mm, and the two-point discrimination distance of the pulp of the affected finger was 6-10 mm; the Allen test results of the affected fingers were all negative (i.e., the bridged vessels had good blood flow patency), with no recurrence of flexion contracture, and the function of the proximal interphalangeal joint was evaluated as excellent; the skin graft area of the second toe was not ruptured but was a little pigmented, and the flexion and extension activities of toe were good.Conclusions:The tibial second toe free flap bridged with blood flow and nerve has reliable therapeutic effect in the treatment of severe flexion contracture of the proximal interphalangeal joint, and the color and texture of the flap repaired area are good. Bridging to repair the severely contracted proper digital artery and nerve is beneficial to improve the blood supply of the finger body and rebuild the sensation.

ObjectiveTo explore factors related to dysphagia early after surgery for head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). MethodsA total of 80 HNSCC inpatients in Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, the Frist Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, from October, 2019 to April, 2021, were reviewed swallowing function with Kubota water drinking test, Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIs) and M.D. Anderson Dysphagia Inventory (MDADI), two weeks after radical surgery for the first time; while the related data were collected and analyzed. ResultsThe incidence of early post-operative dysphagia was 91.25%. The T stages of the tumor, the location of the primary tumor, simultaneous flap repairment and neck dissection were the factors related to dysphagia (P < 0.05), and T stages of the tumor was the independent factor (B = -5.092, t = -6.770, P < 0.001). ConclusionIt's necessary to evaluate the swallowing function of HNSCC patients after surgery, especially for those in worse stages, for early intervention.

Objective:In order to explore the possibility of expanding the surgical indications of the ambulatory laparoscopic transcystic common bill duct exploration(LTCBDE).Methods:A retrospective case-control study analysis was performed on the clinical data of 585 patients who underwent laparoscopic transcystic common bill duct exploration in the Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2015 to December 2018, including 155 cases of the ambulatory LTCBDE (study group) and 430 cases of the overnight LTCBDE (control group). The propensity score was used to match the related variables, and 144 pairs were successfully matched. The two groups were compared in surgery-related indicators, such the preoperative tests, history of acute exacerbation in the last one month, history of upper abdominal surgery, concomitant diseases (high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and respiratory diseases), american society of anesthesiology (ASA) score, intraoperative bleeding, operation time, total medical costs, unplanned readmission rate. Measurement data with normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation( ± s), chi-square test was used for comparison between groups, and M( Q1, Q3) was used for measurement data with non-normal distribution. Fisher exact probability test and Wilcoxon rank-sum test were used for comparison between groups. Results:The indexes of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase(ALT), total bilirubin, direct bilirubin (DBIL), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), ASA score, intraoperative bleeding and total medical costs of the study group were 21.8(18.0, 31.0) U/L, 21.5(15.0, 42.5) U/L, 14.2(11.2, 18.6) umol/L, 2.6(2.1, 3.5) μmol/L, 91.0(73.3, 118.5) U/L, 44.5(22.0, 109.8) U/L, 2.0(2.0, 2.0) grade, 7.5(5.0, 10.0) mL, 9 659.0(8 704.8, 10 640.2) yuan respectively, and the control group were 26.0(17.7, 45.3) U/L, 29.5(16.0, 85.5) U/L, 17.2(13.0, 27.5) μmol/L, 3.8(2.4, 8.7) μmol/L, 105.0(81.0, 156.0) U/L, 86.5(25.0, 224.8) U/L, 2.0(2.0, 2.0) grade, 10.0(6.3, 20.0) mL, 14 366.6(11 766.4, 16 764.4) yuan, which the differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( P<0.05). In two groups of the surgery-related indicators, such as the history of acute exacerbation in the last one month, history of upper abdominal surgery, hypertension are significant statistical differences ( P<0.05). Then there were no significant differences in diabetes, coronary heart diseases, cerebrovascular disease, respiratory diseases, surgical time and unplanned readmission rate. Conclusion:The concomitant diseases may not be the absolute contraindications of the ambulatory LTCBDE. More patients can be treated with ambulatory LTCBDE in experienced centers if relevant outpatient assay and examinations can be further improved, risks of surgery and anesthesia can be fully evaluated, and surgical contraindications can be clearly excluded.

Type 2 inflammation is a complex immune response and primary mechanism for several common allergic diseases including allergic rhinitis, allergic asthma, atopic dermatitis, and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. It is the predominant type of immune response against helminths to prevent their tissue infiltration and induce their expulsion. Recent studies suggest that epithelial barrier dysfunction contributes to the development of type 2 inflammation in asthma, which may partly explain the increasing prevalence of asthma in China and around the globe. The epithelial barrier hypothesis has recently been proposed and has received great interest from the scientific community. The development of leaky epithelial barriers leads to microbial dysbiosis and the translocation of bacteria to inter- and sub-epithelial areas and the development of epithelial tissue inflammation. Accordingly, preventing the impairment and promoting the restoration of a deteriorated airway epithelial barrier represents a promising strategy for the treatment of asthma. This review introduces the interaction between type 2 inflammation and the airway epithelial barrier in asthma, the structure and molecular composition of the airway epithelial barrier, and the assessment of epithelial barrier integrity. The role of airway epithelial barrier disruption in the pathogenesis of asthma will be discussed. In addition, the possible mechanisms underlying the airway epithelial barrier dysfunction induced by allergens and environmental pollutants, and current treatments to restore the airway epithelial barrier are reviewed.
