Objective: To evaluate the effects of a multidisciplinary weight management intervention, so as to provide a reference for the formulation of overweight and obesity intervention measures. Methods: From April to September 2025, overweight and obese residents aged 18-60 years who participated in a weight loss competition at the Health Management Center of Beilun People's Hospital in Ningbo City were selected as study subjects. They were divided into a control group and an intervention group. The control group received conventional weight management, while the intervention group received the multidisciplinary integrated weight management in addition to the conventional weight management, for a total intervention period of 8 weeks. Weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, hip circumference, waist-to-hip ratio, fasting blood glucose (FBG), triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and blood pressure were collected before and after the intervention through physical examinations and laboratory tests. The generalized estimating equations (GEE) method was employed to analyze the differences in indicators between the two groups before and after the intervention. Results: The control group comprised 241 participants, including 161 females (66.80%), with a mean age of (35.66±7.80) years. The intervention group consisted of 127 participants, including 86 females (67.72%), with a mean age of (36.80±7.05) years. No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups at baseline in terms of age, gender, weight, BMI, or waist-to-hip ratio (all P>0.05). Results from the GEE analysis indicated significant interactions between group and time for weight, BMI, waist circumference, and hip circumference (all P<0.05) with greater reductions in these parameters observed in the intervention group compared to the control group before and after the intervention. Similarly, significant interactions between group and time were observed for FBG, TG, TC, and LDL-C (all P<0.05), with the intervention group demonstrating larger decreases in these markers compared to the control group. However, no statistically significant interactions between group and time were observed for waist-to-hip ratio, HDL-C, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure (all P>0.05). Following the intervention, a weight loss exceeding 10% was achieved by 13 participants (5.39%) in the control group and 62 participants (48.82%) in the intervention group. The proportion of individuals with a weight loss exceeding 10% was significantly higher in the intervention group compared to the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared to conventional weight management, multidisciplinary integrated weight management demonstrated greater efficacy in improving weight-related indicators and blood glucose, blood lipids, and enhancing weight loss outcomes among overweight and obese residents.

Objective:To compare the clinical features of severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (SMPP) in pediatric intensive care units (PICU) before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in the PICU of Shanghai Children's Hospital. Clinical and laboratory data were collected from medical records of SMPP patients admitted to the PICU before (January to December 2019) and after (March 2023 to February 2024) the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients admitted in 2019 were categorized as the pre-COVID-19 group, while those admitted in 2023-2024 were classified as the post-COVID-19 group.Results:A total of 287 children with SMPP were included, comprising 155 males and 132 females. The pre-pandemic group consisted of 180 cases, while the post-pandemic group had 107 cases. Macrolide-resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MRMP) was detected in 270 cases (94.1%), with no significant difference in MRMP prevalence between the two groups [101 cases (94.4%) vs. 169 cases (93.9%), Z= 0.031, P = 0.861]. The median age of the post-pandemic group was higher than that of the pre-pandemic group [72 (42, 108) months vs. 42 (24, 68) months, Z= 6.438, P < 0.001].Comparisons of complications between the post-pandemic and pre-pandemic groups were as follows: pleural effusion [20 cases (18.7%) vs. 81 cases (45.0%), χ2=20.365, P< 0.001], shock [4 cases (3.7%) vs. 79 cases (43.9%), χ2=52.628, P< 0.001], gastrointestinal dysfunction [2 cases (1.9%) vs. 24 cases (13.3%), χ 2=9.359, P=0.002], liver dysfunction [9 cases (8.4%) vs. 46 cases (25.6%), χ2=12.733, P< 0.001], and renal injury [0 cases vs. 10 cases (5.6%), P=0.015].There was no significant difference in the incidence of respiratory failure [102 cases (95.3%) vs. 172 cases (95.6%), χ2=0.008, P=0.928]. However, the number of cases requiring high-flow oxygen therapy and mechanical ventilation was significantly lower in the post-pandemic group compared to the pre-pandemic group [14 cases (13.3%) vs. 48 cases (26.7%), 21 cases (20.3%) vs. 122 cases (67.8%), all P<0.05].The time from symptom onset to the initiation of tetracycline/quinolone therapy was shorter in the post-pandemic group compared to the pre-pandemic group [7 (3, 10) days vs. 9 (6.3, 11) days, χ2=-3.565, P< 0.001]. The proportion of patients who had already received tetracycline/quinolone therapy before admission to the PICU was significantly higher in the post-pandemic group compared to the pre-pandemic group [25 cases (23.4%) vs. 2 cases (1.1%), χ 2=10.009, P=0.002].Both the total hospital stay and PICU stay were shorter in the post-pandemic group compared to the pre-pandemic group [10.0 (8.0, 14.0) days vs. 15.5 (12.0, 22.0) days, 5 (3.0, 8.0) days vs. 7.0 (5.0, 10.0) days, all P=0.000]. All 7 deaths occurred in the pre-pandemic group, including 5 cases with co-infections and 2 cases with underlying diseases. Conclusions:In the post-COVID-19 era, SMPP cases in the PICU were predominantly observed in children over 5 years old, with a lower incidence of shock, gastrointestinal disorders, liver injury, and kidney injury compared to the pre-pandemic period. Patients with macrolide-resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae who received timely treatment with tetracycline/quinolones exhibited favorable outcomes.

AIM: To compare the efficacy of different dosing regimens of conbercept in the treatment of pathological myopic choroidal neovascularization(CNV).METHODS: Prospective clinical study. Totally 42 patients(42 eyes)who were diagnosed with pathological myopic CNV in our hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were selected in the study. According to two different initial dosing regimens, the patients were divided into 1+pro re nata(PRN)group, with 20 patients(20 eyes), and 3+PRN group with 22 patients(22 eyes). The patients in the 1+PRN group were given one intravitreal injection and then given PRN, the patients in the 3+PRN group were given intravitreal injection once a month for 3 mo and then given PRN. Followed-up for 12 mo after initial treatment, the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), central macular thickness(CMT), CNV area and injection times were compared between the two groups.RESULTS: The BCVA was improved, CMT was decreased, and CNV area was reduced at 1, 3, 6, and 12 mo after the initial treatment(P<0.01). However, there was no statistically significant difference in BCVA, CMT and CNV area between two groups(P>0.05). The average injection in the 1+PRN group was significantly less than that of the 3+PRN group [2(1, 3)times vs 3(3, 4)times, P<0.05], but the average reinjection in the 1+PRN group was more than that of the 3+PRN group [1(0, 2)times vs 0(0, 1)times, P<0.05].CONCLUSION: Two regimens were both safe and effective in the treatment of pathological myopic CNV by Conbercept, which can improve BCVA, decrease CMT, and reduce CNV area, with less total times of injection in the 1+PRN regimen, and less times of reinjection in the 3+PRN regimen.

Objective:To explore the application effect of pelvic floor outpatient intervention during pregnancy on vaginal delivery of full-term primiparous women.Methods:Single birth primipara who were willing to establish a card and have a desire to give birth naturally in the First People's Hospital of Longquanyi District from January 2021 to December 2021 were divided into odd and even number groups according to the order of filing:the odd group received routine obstetric outpatient management and pelvic floor outpatient intervention(Kegel exercise joint perineum massage)in 200 cases(research group),and even number group received routine obstetric outpatient management in 200 cases(control group).The incidence of vaginitis,cesarean section rate,vaginal delivery rate,obstetric laceration,vaginal midwifery rate,perineal incision,delivery outcome and the length of perineal body and reproductive hiatus before and 42 days after delivery,vaginal width andother vaginal delivery complications(urina-ry retention and puerperal hemorrhoids)were compared between the two groups.Results:87 cases were includ-ed in the final study group,while 104 cases were included in the control group.The perineal incision rate,perineal integrity rate,vaginal midwifery rate,l degree and Ⅱ degree perineal laceration rate,postpartum hemorrhage in the study group were better than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The length of reproductive hiatus 42 days after delivery in the study group was shorter compared with that in the control group(P＜0.05).There were no signifi-cant differences in the incidence of vaginitis,cesarean section rate,time of the second stage of labor,vaginal wall laceration rate,Apgar score of newborns neonatal birth trauma rate,urinary retention,puerperal hemorrhoids,post-partum vaginal width and perineal body length between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusions:Pelvic floor outpa-tient intervention during pregnancy can reduce the harm caused by vaginal delivery in full-term primiparas to a cer-tain extent,and does not increase the incidence of neonatal delivery complications,it is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To explore the relationship between geriatric nutritional risk index(GNRI)and adverse outcomes in elderly patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis(MHD).Methods A prospective cohort trial was conducted on 337 MHD patients aged ≥60 years in hemodialysis centers of 11 hospitals in Beijing from April to June 2017.Their baseline data were collected,and they were divided into non-malnutrition(GNRI≥98,226 cases),mild malnutrition(92≤GNRI＜98,81 cases),and major malnutrition groups(GNRI＜92,30 cases).All of them were followed up until June 2018.The endpoint events were all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease(CVD)mortality.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare the cumulative survival rate among the 3 groups.Multivariate Cox regression model was employed to analyze the relationship of GNRI with all-cause and CVD mortality.Results The mild and major malnutrition groups had significantly lower BMI,serum albumin level and GNRI(P＜0.01).During the median follow-up of 52(4.4-52.0)weeks,56(16.6％)patients died of all-cause death and 25(44.6％)of CVD death.Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed significant differences in all-cause mortality(x2=30.484,P＜0.01)and CVD mortality(x2=22.398,P＜0.01)in the 3 groups.Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that,as a continuous variable,elevated GNRI was a protective factor for all-cause mortality(HR=0.910,95％CI:0.870-0.952,P=0.000)and CVD mortality(HR=0.895,95％CI:0.852-0.940,P=0.000),and as a categorical variable,mild and major malnutri-tion were independently correlated with all-cause and CVD mortality(P＜0.05).Conclusion GNRI is an independent risk factor for all-cause and CVD mortality in elderly MHD patients.Mo-nitoring the nutritional status using GNRI can predict the risk of adverse prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between macular cherry red spot (CS) and severity of neurological manifestations in Chinese children with sialidosis (SD) type I.Methods:A evidence-based medical study. "China", "Sialidosis" and "Sialidoses" were used as Chinese and English search terms. The literature was searched in CNKI, Wanfang and PubMed. The cases were all from China and matched the diagnostic criteria. According to the presence or absence of CS in the fundus, the SD children were divided into a group with CS (+) and a group without CS (-), and the correlation between the occurrence of ocular CS and neurological manifestations was compared with meta-analysis by RevMan 5.3 software.Results:Sixty-eight studies were initially retrieved according to the search strategy, and 17 studies were finally included, and 5 studies with CS+ and CS- were meta-analyzed. Among the 43 patients, 28 were male and 15 were female, with a median age of 12 years. Visual impairment was observed in 37 cases (90.2%, 37/41, 2 cases not recorded), and CS was present in 24 cases (55.8%, 24/43). The most common neurological manifestation was myoclonus (97.7%, 42/43), followed by cerebellar ataxia (95.1%, 39/41, 2 cases not recorded) and seizures (91.4%, 32/35, 8 cases not recorded). Pathogenic NEU1 gene mutations were detected in 42 cases and one case was undocumented. The incidence of seizure in group CS+ (100%, 20/20) was higher than that in group CS- (80%, 12/15). Meta-analysis showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the incidence of myoclonus or ataxia [relative risk ( RR)=1.13, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 0.79-1.63, P=0.49] and seizure ( RR=1.13, 95% CI 0.84-2.06, P=0.24) among the children in the CS+ and CS- groups. Conclusions:The incidence of ocular CS in Chinese children with type I SD was 55.8%. There was no correlation with neurological manifestations, however the incidence of seizure was significantly higher in patients with CS than in others without CS.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis（HLH）/macrophage activation syndrome（MAS）are hyperinflammatory diseases that primarily affect children.The main pathophysiological mechanism involves the reduction or lack of T lymphocyte and natural killer cell function，leading to abnormal proliferation and activation of lymphocytes and macrophages，resulting in cytokine storm and organ dysfunction.The main manifestations are high fever，cytopenia，hepatosplenomegaly，elevated ferritin，liver failure，and coagulation dysfunction,with a mortality rate that can exceed 50%.In recent years，HLH/MAS has developed new immunotherapy methods based on the treatment of traditional immunosuppressive agents.This article focused on the clinical research and treatment of new immunotherapy methods.

Objective:To study the effects of the alternate rapid maxillary expansion and constriction(Alt-RAMEC)with maxillary protraction on different parts of upper airway by CBCT.Methods:20 Angle Class Ⅲ patients aged 9-12 years were included,and CBCT images were taken before treatment and after Alt-RAMEC with maxillary protraction,the total volume of the upper airway,the volume of each part of the nasopharynx,palatopharynx,linguopharynx and laryngopharynx,the cross-sectional area of the division in-terface,and the minimum cross-sectional area were measured after 3D reconstruction using Dolphin software,the data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software.Results:The total upper airway volume,nasopharyngeal volume,and palatopharyngeal volume were in-creased by the average of 1 385.39 mm3(P=0.013),546.74 mm3(P=0.011)and 768.03 mm3(P=0.035)respectively after Alt-RAMEC with maxillary protraction treatment;the area of the nasopharyngeal and palatopharyngeal division interface increased by 73.79 mm2(P=0.002),the cross-sectional diameter by 1.41 mm(P=0.037),and sagittal diameter by 1.52 mm(P=0.022)respectively;however,there was no statistically significant change in the volume,minimum cross-sectional area,partition area,and partition transverse and sagittal diameters of the linguopharynx and laryngopharynx(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Alt-RAMEC with maxil-lary protraction can significantly increase nasopharyngeal and palatopharyngeal volumes,with no significant effect on the linguopharyn-geal and laryngopharyngeal segments of the airway.

Objective To explore the relationship between hyperkalemia and adverse outcomes in elderly maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients.Methods A retrospective cohort trial was conducted on 177 MHD patients aged≥60 years in the hemodialysis center of Beijing Shijitan Hospital,Capital Medical University.Baseline data were collected.The mean age was(77.28±14.25)years,among them 109 cases were males(61.6%).According to the peak serum potassium within 4 months,patients were divided into the K+＜5.0 mmol/L group(38 cases,21.5%),the 5.0-5.5 mmol/L group(42 cases,23.7%)and the K+≥5.5 mmol/L group(97 cases,54.8%).Based on the frequency of hyperkalemia within 4 months,patients were divided into the 0,1-2 and 3-4 frequency groups.All of patients were followed up for 1 year.The end point events were all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease(CVD)mortality.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare the cumulative survival rate between the 3 groups.A multivariate Cox regression model was employed to analyze the relationship between the degree and frequency of hyperkalemia with all-cause and CVD mortality.Results The mean follow-up time of 177 patients was 12(1-12)months,20(11.3%)patients died of all-cause death and 14(7.9%)of CVD death.Kaplan Meier survival curve showed cardiovascular mortality rate and all-cause mortality were significantly increased in the K+5.0-5.5 mmol/L group and the K+≥5.5 mmol/L group(both P＜0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that,as a continuous variable,peak potassium levels were independently associated with an increased risk of all-cause death and CVD death(P＜0.001).As a categorical variable,the all-cause mortality risk and CVD mortality risk were significantly higher in both the K+5.0-5.5 mmol/L group and the K+≥5.5 mmol/L group than those in the K+＜5.0 mmol/L group(P＜0.05),and those were significantly higher in the 1-2 and 3-4 frequency groups than those in the 0 frequency group of hyperkalemia(P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum potassium>5.0 mmol/L in elderly MHD patients is an independent risk factor for all-cause and CVD mortality.It is recommended to adjust the upper limit of the normal range of serum potassium to 5.0 mmol/L.

Background::Programmed death 1 (PD-1) blockade plus chemotherapy has become the new first-line standard of care for patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Yet not all NSCLC patients benefit from this regimen. This study aimed to investigate the predictors of PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy in untreated advanced NSCLC.Methods::We integrated clinical, genomic, and survival data from 287 patients with untreated advanced NSCLC who were enrolled in one of five registered phase 3 trials and received PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy or chemotherapy alone. We randomly assigned these patients into a discovery cohort ( n = 125), a validation cohort ( n = 82), and a control cohort ( n = 80). The candidate genes that could predict the response to PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy were identified using data from the discovery cohort and their predictive values were then evaluated in the three cohorts. Immune deconvolution was conducted using transcriptome data of 1014 NSCLC patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset. Results::A genomic variation signature, in which one or more of the 15 candidate genes were altered, was correlated with significantly inferior response rates and survival outcomes in patients treated with first-line PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy in both discovery and validation cohorts. Its predictive value held in multivariate analyses when adjusted for baseline parameters, programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression level, and tumor mutation burden. Moreover, applying both the 15-gene panel and PD-L1 expression level produced better performance than either alone in predicting benefit from this treatment combination. Immune landscape analyses revealed that tumors with one or more variation in the 15-gene panel were associated with few immune infiltrates, indicating an immune-desert tumor microenvironment.Conclusion::These findings indicate that a 15-gene panel can serve as a negative prediction biomarker for first-line PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC.
