ObjectiveTo investigate the incidence， glucolipid metabolism characteristics， and associated factors of postoperative overweight/obesity in children and adolescent with craniopharyngioma. MethodsA retrospective study was conducted using follow-up data from 44 patients （aged 0-18 years） diagnosed with craniopharyngioma who underwent surgical treatment and received follow-up care at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital， Sun Yat-sen University， between January 2006 and February 2024. The incidence and glucolipid metabolism characteristics of overweight/obesity were summarized， and potential influencing factors were analyzed. ResultsA total of 44 patients were enrolled. The mean age at surgery was （8.57 ± 4.25） years， and the mean age at last follow-up was （16.02 ± 5.36 ）years. The mean follow-up duration was （7.45 ± 4.64） years （range， 8 months to 17.5 years）. The preoperative incidence of overweight/obesity was 40.91% （predominantly overweight， 27.27%）， which increased to 68.18% postoperatively （predominantly obesity， 50.00%）. Postoperatively， all patients （44/44， 100%） underwent fasting plasma glucose （FPG） testing， among whom 2 （4.55%） had impaired fasting glucose （IFG）. Fasting insulin （FINS） was measured in 20 patients， and insulin resistance was identified in 11 （55.00%）. Oral glucose tolerance testing （OGTT） with insulin release assessment was performed in 12 patients， and all （100%） exhibited abnormal insulin secretion， including 5 （41.67%） with hyperinsulinemia and 3 （25.00%） diagnosed with diabetes mellitus （DM）. All patients （44/44， 100%） underwent lipid profile assessment. The incidence of dyslipidemia was 81.82% （36/44）， including elevated non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （29/44， 65.91%）， hypertriglyceridemia （29/44， 65.91%）， low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （22/44， 50.00%）， and mixed hyperlipidemia （13/44， 29.55%）. Logistic regression analysis indicated that preoperative overweight/obesity and postoperative abnormal glucose metabolism were significant factors associated with postoperative overweight/obesity. Compared with normal-weight patients， those with postoperative overweight/obesity had higher FINS levels （14.22 mU/L vs. 3.57 mU/L）， higher insulin resistance index（HOMA-IR） （2.88 vs. 0.52）， and a higher incidence of abnormal glucose metabolism （77.78% vs. 23.08%）. However， no significant difference was observed in the incidence of dyslipidemia （94.44% vs. 73.08%）. ConclusionsChildren and adolescent with craniopharyngioma exhibit a higher incidence of overweight/obesity than healthy peers preoperatively， which becomes more pronounced after surgery. This is accompanied by a high incidence of glucolipid metabolic disorders， placing these patients at increased risk of metabolic syndrome， which warrants clinical attention and regular metabolic assessment. In patients who develop postoperative obesity， particular attention should be given to the risk of glucose metabolism abnormalities， and further monitoring of glucose homeostasis is recommended.

Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

Protrusive facial deformities, characterized by the forward displacement of the teeth and/or jaws beyond the normal range, affect a considerable portion of the population. The manifestations and morphological mechanisms of protrusive facial deformities are complex and diverse, requiring orthodontists to possess a high level of theoretical knowledge and practical experience in the relevant orthodontic field. To further optimize the correction of protrusive facial deformities, this consensus proposes that the morphological mechanisms and diagnosis of protrusive facial deformities should be analyzed and judged from multiple dimensions and factors to accurately formulate treatment plans. It emphasizes the use of orthodontic strategies, including jaw growth modification, tooth extraction or non-extraction for anterior teeth retraction, and maxillofacial vertical control. These strategies aim to reduce anterior teeth and lip protrusion, increase chin prominence, harmonize nasolabial and chin-lip relationships, and improve the facial profile of patients with protrusive facial deformities. For severe skeletal protrusive facial deformities, orthodontic-orthognathic combined treatment may be suggested. This consensus summarizes the theoretical knowledge and clinical experience of numerous renowned oral experts nationwide, offering reference strategies for the correction of protrusive facial deformities.

Enamel demineralization, the formation of white spot lesions, is a common issue in clinical orthodontic treatment. The appearance of white spot lesions not only affects the texture and health of dental hard tissues but also impacts the health and aesthetics of teeth after orthodontic treatment. The prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of white spot lesions that occur throughout the orthodontic treatment process involve multiple dental specialties. This expert consensus will focus on providing guiding opinions on the management and prevention of white spot lesions during orthodontic treatment, advocating for proactive prevention, early detection, timely treatment, scientific follow-up, and multidisciplinary management of white spot lesions throughout the orthodontic process, thereby maintaining the dental health of patients during orthodontic treatment.

Objective:To investigate the accuracy of resting energy expenditure(REE)prediction formulas and to develop a new REE prediction formula suitable for hospitalized older adults.Methods:Older adults hospitalized in the Department of Geriatrics from October 1, 2022, to November 31, 2022, were included in the study.The predicted values of REE(pREE)were estimated using 13 commonly employed formulas that incorporate parameters related to resting energy expenditure, such as gender, age, body mass index(BMI), and body weight.Indirect calorimetry measurements(mREE)served as the gold standard for comparison.Group differences between pREE and mREE, the coefficient of concordance( ICC), and accuracy(defined as±10% of the mREE values)were utilized to evaluate the performance of the formulas.The ten-fold cross-validation method was employed to identify valid variables and to construct a new prediction formula.The performance of this new formula was compared to mREE, the Harris-Benedict formula, the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism(ESPEN)formula, and the Chinese Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism(CSPEN)formula. Results:A total of 223 hospitalized participants aged 60 to 98 years(mean age 79.5±8.2 years)were included in the study.Among these participants, 49.3%(110 cases)were male, and the prevalence of frailty was approximately 84.3%(188 cases).The median difference between pREE and mREE ranged from 9.1 to 232.1 kcal/d.The predictions from the Harris-Benedict, ESPEN, and CSPEN equations differed significantly from mREE(all P<0.05), with respective accuracies of 30.9%, 31.4%, and 24.7%.A new equation was developed: pREE=794.847+ 8.661×body weight -7.976 × age+ 14.757 ×grip strength+ 5.037 × heart rate, with an ICC of 0.6(95% CI: 0.5-0.7), and the accuracy reached 56.3%. Conclusions:Existing equations demonstrate low accuracy in predicting REE among hospitalized older adults.The newly developed equation shows improved performance compared to previous models and can serve as a reference method for predicting REE in this demographic.
