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 efficacy and safety of Changsulin ? with Lantus ? in treating patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods:This was a phase Ⅲ, multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, active-controlled clinical trial. A total of 578 participants with T2DM inadequately controlled on oral hypoglycemic agents were randomized 3∶1 to Changsulin ? or Lantus ? treatment for 24 weeks. The efficacy measures included changes in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2h postprandial plasma glucose (2hPG), 8-point self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) profiles from baseline, and proportions of subjects achieving targets of HbA1c and FPG. The safety outcomes included rates of hypoglycemia, adverse events (AEs) and anti-insulin glargine antibody. Results:After 24 weeks of treatment, mean HbAlc decreased 1.16% and 1.25%, FPG decreased 3.05 mmol/L and 2.90 mmol/L, 2hPG decreased 2.49 mmol/L and 2.38 mmol/L in Changsulin ? and in Lantus ?, respectively. No significant differences could be viewed in above parameters between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were also no significant differences between Changsulin ? and Lantus ? in 8-point SMBG profiles from baseline and proportions of subjects achieving the targets of HbA1c and FPG (all P>0.05). The rates of total hypoglycemia (38.00% and 39.01% for Changsulin ? and Lantus ?, respectively) and nocturnal hypoglycemia (17.25% and 16.31% for Changsulin ? and Lantus ?, respectively) were similar between the two groups (all P>0.05). Most of the hypoglycemia events were asymptomatic, and no severe hypoglycemia were found in both groups. No differences were observed in rates of AEs (61.77% vs.52.48%) and anti-insulin glargine antibody (after 24 weeks of treatment, 6.91% vs.3.65%) between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Changsulin ? shows similar efficacy and safety profiles compared with Lantus ? and Changsulin ? treatment was well tolerated in patients with T2DM.

Objective:To analyze the difference of psychosocial characteristics in patients with chronic gastritis.Methods:From June to December 2018, a total of 300 patients with chronic gastritis visited Xijing Hospital were consecutively enrolled. The patients were divided into chronic non-atrophic gastritis (CNAG) group, chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) group and CAG with intestinal metaplasia group, with 100 cases in each group. Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA), Hamilton depression scale (HAMD), living events scale (LES) and Eysenck personality questionnaire (EPQ) were used for evaluation and analysis. Chi square test, analysis of variance, nonparametric rank sum test and Kruskal Wallis H test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The incidences of anxiety of the CAG group and the CAG with intestinal metaplasia group were both significantly higher than that of the CNAG group (64.0%, 64/100; 53.0%, 53/100; and 34.0%, 34/100; respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=0.007 and 0.001, both P<0.05). The incidence of depression of the CAG with intestinal metaplasia group was significantly higher than those of CNAG group and the CAG group (24.0%, 24/100; 15.0%, 15/100 and 13.0%, 13/100; respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=0.108 and 0.045, both P<0.05). The negative event score of LES of CAG with intestinal metaplasia group was higher than those of CNAG group and CAG group (0 (0, 6.75), 0 (0, 1.00), 0 (0, 0.75) respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-2.619 and -3.022, both P<0.05). The proportion of patients with LES score ≥20 points (high mental stress) of CNAG group, CAG group and CAG with intestinal metaplasia group gradually increased (8.0%, 8/100; 9.0%, 9/100 and 18.0%, 18/100; respectively), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=0.036, P<0.05). In male patients and patients under 50 years old, the incidence of depression and the proportions of patients with LES score ≥20 points of CAG with intestinal metaplasia group were higher than those of CNAG group (22.5%, 9/40 vs. 9.6%, 5/52; 47.5%, 19/40 vs. 16.2%, 11/68; 22.5%, 9/40 vs. 7.7%, 4/52; and 20.0%, 8/40 vs. 4.4%, 3/68), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=0.015, 0.001, 0.043 and 0.013, all P<0.05). The results of EPQ showed that the psychoticism, extraversion or introversion, stability and concealment of CNAG group and CAG with intestinal metaplasia group, were mostly normal (43.3 to 56.7), accounting for 62.0% (62/100) and 45.0% (45/100), 56.0% (56/100) and 44.0% (44/100), 54.0% (54/100) and 44.0% (44/100), 59.0% (59/100) and 45.0% (45/100), respectively. The percentage of patients with high score (>56.7) of etraversion or introversion and concealment in CAG group and the CAG with intestinal metaplasia group were higher than those in the CNAG group (48.0%, 48/100; 23.0%, 23/100; 4.0%, 4/100 and 46.0%, 46/100; 21.0%, 21/100 and 7.0%, 7/100, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=0.001, 0.001, 0.001 and 0.004, all P<0.01). Conclusions:Anxiety is associated with CAG and intestinal metaplasia, while depression is associated with intestinal metaplasia. In male patients and patients under 50 years old, depression, negative event and high psychiatric stress are more significantly related to intestinal metaplasia. The mental characteristics of extroversion, emotional instability, psychoticism and concealment are closely associated with CAG.

Objective To evaluate efficacy and safety of acarbose compared with metformin as add-on therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with insulin. Methods This was a randomized, open-labeled, and parallel group study. Ninety-one type 2 diabetic patients ( HbA1C7.5%-11.0%) who were suboptimally controlled despite receiving twice daily injection of insulin (30-60 U/d for at least 8 weeks) were enrolled. They were randomly assigned 1 ∶ 1 ∶ 1 to continuation of insulin, insulin with acarbose (Ins+Aca), and insulin with metformin (Ins+Met) groups to insulin treatment. The levels of HbA1C, oral glucose tolerance test, blood lipids etc were measured at baseline and 12 weeks, and adverse events were recorded. Results The mean HbA1C levelsdecreasedfrom(7.9±0.4)%atbaselineto(7.0±0.3)%atweek12(P＜0.01)intheIns+Acagroupand(7.8 ±0.2)%to(7.0±0.3)%in the Ins+Met group(P＜0.01), while no significant change in HbA1Cin the insulin alone group. Adding acarbose to insulin resulted in similar reductions in HbA1Crelative to metformin (P＝0.431). The achievement rate of HbA1Cbelow 7.0%at week 12 was the same(both 70%) between the Ins+Aca group and the Ins+Met group. Insulin combined with acarbose in improving blood glucose fluctuation effect was more significant than that incombinationwithmetformin(P＜0.01),withstandarddeviation(SD)ofbloodglucose[(1.1±0.5vs2.7±0.6) mmol/L, P＜0.01], postprandial blood glucose fluctuations [(0.5 ± 0.7 vs 2.8 ± 0.4) mmol/L, P＜0.01], the maximumbloodglucosefluctuations[(2.8±0.7vs4.6±0.6)mmol/L,P＜0.01].Theweightlossoccurredinboththe Ins+AcaandtheIns+Metgroups[-(0.5±0.8vs1.0±0.4)kg].Therewasnosignificantchangesinbloodpressure and lipid profile. Hypoglycemic episodes were comparable in all groups. No serious adverse event was noted in any group. Conclusions Adding acarbose or metformin to insulin therapy could achieve improvements in glycemic control with similar reductions in HbA1Clevels and weight, when comparing with insulin treatment alone. Add-on acarbose to insulin therapy may exist more effectively on glucose fluctuation than that of add-on metformin, which may have important clinical implications in those patients with postprandial hyperglycemia, large blood glucose fluctuation, and intolerance to metformin.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine mixed with ropivacaine for transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block combined with general anesthesia in the patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopy.Methods Ninety American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients, aged 20-50 yr, with body mass index of 18-24 kg/m2, scheduled for elective gynecological laparoscopic ovarian cyst resection under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table: general anesthesia group (group G) , general anesthesia + ropivacaine for TAP block group (group G+R), and general anesthesia + dexanedetomidine mixed with ropivacaine for TAP block group (group G+DR).After the end of anesthesia induction, ultrasound-guided left-sided unilateral TAP block was performed in G+R and G+DR groups.In G+R and G+DR groups, 20 ml of 0.375％ ropivacaine and 20 ml of 0.375％ ropivacaine mixed with 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine were injected, respectively.After induction of general anesthesia, the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) was inserted, and the patients were mechanically ventilated in the 3 groups.Anesthesia was maintenaned with iv infusion of remifentanil 0.2 μg · kg-1 · min-1 and propofol 4-8 mg · kg-1 · h-1.Narcotrend index was maintained at 37-46.Only group G received postoperative intravenous analgesia.The occurrence of TAP block-related adverse events was recorded.The emergence time, time for recovery of spontaneous breathing, time for removal of LMA, and Steward score at 5 min after removal of LMA were recorded.The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, and respiratory depression was recorded.Results Compared with G and G+R groups,the emergence time, time for recovery of spontaneous breathing, and time for removal of LMA were significantly shortened (P＜0.05 or 0.01) , and no significant change was found in Steward score in group G+DR (P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the above parameters between group G and group G+R (P＞0.05).Compared with group G, the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was significantly decreased in G+R and G+DR groups (P＜0.05).VAS score was maintained ≤ 3 after operation in the 3 groups.No TAP block-related adverse events were found in G+R and G+DR groups.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine mixed with ropivacaine provides faster recovery from anesthesia, and avoids postoperative hyperalgesia when used for TAP block combined with general anesthesia in the patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical and genetics characteristics of patients with monosomal karyotype acute myeloid leukemia (MK-AML).

METHODSThe karyotypes of 3743 patients with newly-diagnosed de novo AML were analyzed, which had identified 153 cases with MK-AML, for whom the clinical and genetics characteristics were analyzed.

RESULTSThere were 2056 patients (54.9%) among all patients. A total of 153 patients fulfilling the criteria for MK-AML were identified, which comprised 93 males and 60 females, with a median age of 54. The median white blood cell count on presentation was 4.4×10 (9)/L. One hundred and forty-five cases (94.8%) have fulfilled the criteria for complex karyotype (≥ 3 chromosomal abnormalities). Although the monosomy could be found with all autosomes, chromosome 7 has been most frequently involved (38.56%, 59/153).

CONCLUSIONMK-AML is a distinct cytogenetic subtype of AML. Monosomy 7 is frequently detected among MK-AML patients. The monosomal karyotype is common among elder patients with AML.
