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 compare the effects of main artery clamping(MAC)and selective artery clamping(SAC)strategies on postoperative renal function in patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 231 patients with preoperative chronic renal insufficiency[eGFR<90 mL/(min·1.73 m2)with renal injury markers or eGFR<60 mL/(min·1.73 m2)]who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy in the Department of Urology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from February 2018 to February 2024.According to intraoperative renal artery clamping strategy,they were divided into a MAC group(n=129)and a SAC group(n=102).Preoperatively,individualized renal artery clamping strategies were developed using a machine learning-based multimodal holographic 3-D reconstruction technique.Serum creatinine(Scr)level was measured at 3 d and 3 months after surgery,and estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)was calculated using the chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration equation(CKD-EPI)formula.Renal dynamic imaging with 99mTc-DTPA or 99mTc-MAG3 was used to assess the GFR of the affected kidney.Results At 3 d after surgery,the decrease in GFR of the affected kidney was significantly lower[(8.3±7.7)vs(16.0±10.2)mL/(min·1.73 m2),95%CI:-10.2～-5.2,P<0.001]in the SAC group than the MAC group.Scr increment analysis showed that the SAC group exhibited notably lower Scr increase[8.2(2.5,18.7)vs 15.5(5.8,28.3)μmol/L,95%CI:-12.3～-1.8,P=0.027],and milder eGFR decline[3.0(0.5,7.8)vs 7.5(2.0,14.3)mL/(min·1.73 m2),95%CI:-6.2～-0.8,P=0.015].And,in 3 months after surgery,the SAC group had lower Scr level[(89.2±23.1)vs(95.3±22.1)μmol/L,95%CI:-11.9～-0.3,P=0.042],and higher GFR of the affected kidney[(33.5±10.5)vs(26.1±10.9)mL/(min·1.73 m2),95%CI:4.6～10.2,P<0.001].Conclusion For patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy,SAC strategy is superior to MAC strategy in protecting postoperative renal function without increasing surgical risk.

Background: and Purpose A ruptured peripheral cerebral aneurysm (PPCA) associated with moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition with controversial management strategies. We aim to summarize the clinical characteristics, treatment strategies, and prognostic factors of PPCAs in MMD. Methods: We reviewed studies published in PubMed between 1980 and 2023 and used logistic regression analysis to identify the risk factors for adverse outcomes. Results: Of 425 identified studies, 48 eligible studies involving 121 participants were included in the current study. The mean age at diagnosis was 40.8±15.1 years, with a peak age of onset between 41 and 50 years. Among the identified participants, 59.6% were female, and 55.9% presented with impaired consciousness. Aneurysms were present in the posterior (35.5%) or anterior (30.6%) choroidal arteries in 66.1% of the cases, and 71.1% of the patients presented with intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) with or without intracerebral hematoma (ICH). The treatment strategies were embolization (28.9%), direct surgery (21.5%), revascularization (22.3%), and conservation (27.3%). Favorable outcomes were achieved in 86.8% of all cases, with 97.1% for embolization, 65.4% for direct surgery, 96.3% for revascularization, and 84.8% for conservative treatment. Aneurysm rebleeding occurred in 11 (26.8%) of 41 patients managed conservatively, leading to worse outcomes in 7 patients (63.6%). Impaired consciousness (odds ratio [OR], 8.61; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.06–36.00) and aneurysm rebleeding (OR, 16.54; 95% CI, 3.08–88.90) independently predicted poor outcomes. Conclusion PPCA should be considered in patients with hemorrhagic MMD, particularly those with IVH with or without ICH. Endovascular and bypass treatments are recommended as first-line options, with direct open surgery as an alternative in urgent hematoma evacuation cases. Detailed preoperative planning and intraoperative technical assistance are necessary to reduce procedure-related complications. Conservative management should be selected with caution because of the high risk of rebleeding and poor outcomes. Impaired consciousness and aneurysm rebleeding appeared to be independent risk factors for adverse prognoses. We emphasize that treatment selection should be personalized, and the potential benefits should be weighed against the associated risks.

Objective:To investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of Donafenib as postoperative adjuvant therapy for patients with high risk of recurrence after radical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The propensity score matching (PSM) and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 157 HCC patients with high risk of recurrence after radical resection who were admitted to 6 medical centers, including The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University et al, from June 2021 to February 2023 were collected. There were 128 males and 29 females, aged (59±10)years. Of 157 patients, 101 cases undergoing Donafenib as postoperative adjuvant therapy were divided into the the Donafenib group, and 56 cases under-going no systemic postoperative adjuvant therapy were divided into the control group. Observation indicators: (1) PSM and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) postoperative treatment; (3) follow-up and survival of patients; (4) analysis of risk factors affecting recurrence-free survival of patients. PSM was done based on the principle of optimal perfect matching, with the clamp value of 0.5, and the Donafenib group and the control group were matched at a ratio of 1.25∶1. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers and/or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data between groups was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis H test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates and draw survival curves, and the Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX proportional hazard model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:(1) PSM and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of 157 patients, 126 cases were successfully matched, including 70 cases in the Donafenib group and 56 cases in the control group, respectively. The elimination of tumor number confounding bias ensured comparability between the two groups after PSM. (2) Postoperative treatment. After PSM, of 70 patients in the Donafenib group, there were 23 cases receiving Donafenib monotherapy, 26 cases combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE), 14 cases combined with immunotherapy, and 7 cases combined with TACE+immunotherapy. Of 56 patients in the control group, there were 37 cases receiving postoperative follow-up alone and 19 cases combined with TACE. (3) Follow-up and survival of patients. All 157 patients were followed up, and the follow-up time of the 101 patients in Donafenib group and the 56 patients in control group were 10.1(range, 6.3-14.6)months and 22.2(range, 15.1-25.5)months, respectively. During the follow-up period, 70 patients in the Donafenib group experienced treatment-related adverse reactions, inclu-ding 8 cases of grade 3 adverse reactions, 23 cases of grade 2 and 39 cases of grade 1 adverse reactions, respectively. After PSM, the postoperative 12-, 18-month recurrence-free survival rates were 83.7%, 83.7% in the 70 patients of Donafenib group and 67.8%, 58.9% in the 56 patients of control group, respectively, showing a significant difference in the postoperative recurrence-free survival time between the two groups ( hazard ratio=0.395, 95% confidence interval as 0.176-0.888, P<0.05). (4) Analysis of risk factors affecting recurrence free survival of patients. Results of multivariate ana-lysis showed that microvascular invasion, vascular thrombus, clinical stage as ⅢA were independent risk factors affecting recurrence-free survival in patients with high risk of recurrence after radical resection of HCC ( hazard ratio=2.181, 2.612, 2.612, 95% confidence interval as 1.028-4.629, 1.128-6.047, 1.128-6.047, P<0.05), Donafenib as postoperative adjuvant therapy was an independent protective factor affecting recurrence-free survival in patients with high risk of recurrence after radical resection of HCC ( hazard ratio=0.457, 95% confidence interval as 0.227-0.920, P<0.05). Results of further analysis showed that after PSM, there were significant differences in the postoperative recurrence-free survival time in patients with different clinical factors, including male, age ≥60 years, tumor diameter >5 cm, positive microvascular invasion, positive hepatitis B virus infection, alpha fetoprotein <200 μg/L, between the Donafenib group and the control group ( hazard ratio=0.283, 0.202, 0.174, 0.345, 0.273, 0.180, 95% confidence interval as 0.114-0.707, 0.044-0.937, 0.038-0.794, 0.128-0.929, 0.091-0.819, 0.052-0.620, P<0.05). Conclusion:Donafenib as postoperative adjuvant therapy can effectively reduce the short-term recurrence rate in patients with high risk of recurrence after radical resection of HCC, with good safety and tolerance.

Objective:To establish autoverification rules for coagulation tests in multicenter cooperative units, in order to reduce workload for manual review of suspected results and shorten turnaround time (TAT) of test reports, while ensure the accuracy of results.Methods:A total of 14 394 blood samples were collected from fourteen hospitals during December 2019 to March 2020. These samples included: Rules Establishment Group 11 230 cases, including 1 182 cases for Delta check rules; Rules Validation Group 3 164 cases, including 487cases for Delta check; Clinical Application Trial Group 77 269 cases. Samples were analyzed for coagulation tests using Sysmex CS series automatic coagulation analyzers, and the clinical information, instrument parameters, test results, clinical diagnosis, medication history of anticoagulant and other relative results such as HCT, TG, TBIL, DBIL were summarized; on the basis of historical data, the 2.5 and 97.5 percentile of all data arranged from low to high were initially accumulated; on the basis of clinical suggestions, critical values and specific drug use as well as relative guidelines, autoverification rules and limits were established.The rules were then input into middleware, in which Stage I/Stage II validation was done. Positive coincidence, negative coincidence, false negative, false positive, autoverification pass rate, passing accuracy (coincidence of autoverification and manual verification) were calculated. Autoverification rules underwent trial application in coagulation results reports.Results:(1) The autoverification algorisms involve 33 rules regarding PT/INR, APTT, FBG, D-dimer, FDP,Delta check, reaction curve and sample abnormalities; (2)Autoverification Establishment Group showed autoverification pass rate was 68.42% (7 684/11 230), the false negative rate was 0%(0/11230), coincidence of autoverification and manual verification was 98.51%(11 063/11 230), in which positive coincidence and negative coincidence were respectively 30.09% (3 379/11 230) and 68.42%(7 684/11 230); Autoverification Validation Group showed autoverification pass rate was 60.37%(1 910/3 164), the false negative rate was 0%(0/11 230), coincidence of autoverification and manual verification was 97.79%(3 094/3 164), in which positive coincidence and negative coincidence were respectively 37.42%(1 184/3 164) and 60.37%(1 910/3 164); (3) Trialed implementation of these autoverification rules on 77 269 coagulation samples showed that the average TAT shortened by 8.5 min-83.1 min.Conclusions:This study established 33 autoverification rules in coagulation tests. Validation showedthese rules could ensure test quality while shortening TAT and lighten manual workload.

Objective To investigate the roles and mechanisms of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α) in chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) induced gastric intestinal metaplasia (IM).Methods After the immortalized gastric mucosal epithelial cells GES-1 were stimulated with CDCA at different concentration,the changes of HNF4α,caudal-related homeobox 2 (CDX2) and trefoil factor family 3 (TFF3) expressions at mRNA and protein levels in GES-1 cells and gastric cancer cell lines (AGS,SGC7901 and BGC823) were detected by real time-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting.After GES-1 were transfected with HNF4α short hairpin RNA (shRNA) or control shRNA,and followed by CDCA stimulation,the expressions of HNF4α,CDX2 and TFF3 at protein level were determined by Western blotting.HNF4α was overexpressed in GES-1 cells and SGC7901 cells,and HNF4α was silenced in BGC823 cell line and AGS by lentiviral vector system.The expressions of HNF4α,CDX2 and TFF3 at mRNA and protein levels were tested by RT-PCR and Western blotting.Luciferase reporter assay was used to analyze the regulation role of HNF4α on CDX2.T test was performed for statistical analysis.Results The expressions of HNF4α in GES-1,SGC7901,BGC823 and AGS cells at mRNA level were 1.00 ± 0.12,263.01±10.23,848.01±18.13 and 3 049.86±91.75,respectively.The mRNAlevels of HNF4α in AGS,BGC823 and SGC7901 cells were all higher than that of GES-1 cells,and the differences were statistically significant (t=33.23,46.72 and 25.62,all P＜0.01).The expressions of HNF4α in GES-1,SGC7901,BGC823 and AGS at protein level were consistent with mRNA level.The expressions of CDX2 and TFF3 at protein level of HNF4α shRNA transfected group were lower than those of non-HNF4α shRNA transfected group.In GES-1 cells,the expressions of HNF4α,CDX2 and TFF3 of HNF4α overexpressed group at mRNA level were 16 281.839 ± 1 843.017,6.275 ± 0.137 and 17.310± 1.533,respectively;which were all higher than those of overexpressed control group (1.000 ± 0.048,1.000 ± 0.012 and 1.000±0.108,respectively),and the differences were statistically significant (t =8.83,38.29 and 10.61,all P＜0.01).In AGS cells,the expressions of HNF4α,CDX2 and TFF3 of HNF4α silenced group at mRNA level were 0.021 ± 0.001,0.088 ± 0.007 and 0.074 ± 0.002,respectively,which were lower than those of silenced control group (1.000 ± 0.108,1.000 ± 0.131 and 1.000 ± 0.122),and the differences were statistically significant (t=9.09,6.93 and 7.57,all P＜0.01).In GES-1 overexpressed cells and AGS silenced cells,the expressions of HNF4α,CDX2,TFF3 at protein level were consistent with mRNA level.In double reporter plasmid containing the CDX2 promoter CDX2 1 (-2 000～-1 bp) and CDX2-2 (-1 510～1 bp),after transfected with HNF4α shRNA,the activities were 0.387 ± 0.013 and 0.533 ± 0.040,respectively,which were lower than those of HNF4α shRNA transfected control group (0.605 ± 0.012 and 0.882 ± 0.019),and the differences were statistically significant (t =21.49 and 13.53,both P＜0.01).Conclusion HNF4α may be involved in bile acid induced intestinal metaplasia by upregulating the expression of CDX2.

Objective To study the effect of sub-chronic exposure to deltamethrin(DM) on the behavior of mice in learning and memory and expression of GABAA receptor α1 and γ2 subunits in the hippocampus of mice.Methods 60 female SPF Kunming mice were randomly divided into solvent control group,low-dose group,middle-dose group and high-dose group, 15 mice in each group.The latter three groups were exposured to deltamethrin for 60 days by gavage.Open field test (OFT) was applied to evaluate locomotor activity and exploratory behavior in mice.RQ-PCR was employed to measure the expression of GABAA receptor α1 and γ2 subunits in hippocampus of mice.Results After exposure to DM,the moving distance of the central area in the middle-dose group ((555.1 ± 12.8) cm) and high-dose group ((516.4± 11.88) cm) was significantly higher than that in the solvent control group ((327.3± 117.8) cm, P＜0.05).Numbers of standing in marginal area (F=4.117, P=0.010) and total movement distance (F=2.914, P=0.042) in the high-dose group ((27.9±9.9) times, (3211.3±379.8) cm) were also significantly higher than that in the solvent control group ((15.1 ±8.9)times, (3211.3±379.8)cm).The expression of GABAA receptor α1 subunit mRNA in the middle-dose group and high-dose group was significantly lower than that in the low-dose group and solvent control group(F=8.508, P=0.001) and the expression of GABAA receptor γ2 subunit mRNA in high-dose group was significantly lower than that in the other groups (F=6.738, P=0.002).Conclusion Sub-chronic exposure to DM can damage the function of locomotor activity and exploratory behavior,and inhibit the expression of GABAA receptor α1 and γ2 subunits in the hippocampus of mice.

BACKGROUND:Degradable polymer materials initiate the degradation process immediately after implantation. How to regulate the degradation of these materials is rarely reported at present. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of ultrasonic wave on control ing the degradation of polymer materials. METHODS:The sample is made ofε-caprolactone/L-lactide copolymer, and its core was coated with low density polyethylene on the surface with the fol owing four different methods. (1) The core surface was firstly covered with CaCl 2 powder, and then coated with polyethylene. (2) The core was firstly coated with polyethylene and coarsened for 3 hours. (3) The core surface was firstly covered with CaCl 2 powder, and then coated with polyethylene, and coarsened for 3 hours. (4) The core was directly coated with polyethylene. The four kinds of specimens obtained were embedded in pork for ultrasonic bombardment experiment in vitro. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the specimens prepared with methods 1 and 4, the lyophobic layer could protect core materials before ultrasonic treatment, and no absorption peak was found at 631 nm. After ultrasonic treatment, the lyophobic layer was destroyed, toluidine blue dye was released, leading to change the color of immersion solution and increase the absorption peak at 631 nm. In the specimens prepared with methods 2 and 3,the lyophobic layer cannot exhibit the protection effects, the absorption peak was found at 631 nm. Under electron microscope, the appearance of the specimens in four groups was changed obviously. It is feasible to control the starting of the degradation by coating the degradable copolymer with LDPE and using ultrasonic as a trigger.
