Abstract In recent years, the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has risen rapidly, posing a serious threat to their physical and mental health. To provide scientific, systematic, and standardized weight management guidance for overweight and obese children and adolescents, the study focuses on the core concept of healthy lifestyle intervention, integrates multidisciplinary expert opinions and research findings,and proposes a comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention framework covering scientific exercise intervention, precise nutrition and diet, optimized sleep management, and standardized psychological support. It calls for the establishment of a multi agent collaborative management mechanism led by the government, implemented by families, fostered by schools, initiated by individuals, optimized by communities, reinforced by healthcare, and coordinated by multiple stakeholders. Emphasizing a child and adolescent centered approach, the consensus advocates for comprehensive, multi level, and personalized guidance strategies to promote the internalization and maintenance of a healthy lifestyle. It serves as a reference and provides recommendations for the effective prevention and control of overweight and obesity, and enhancing the health level of children and adolescents.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of a capillary electrophoresis-based method for gene diagnosis of hyperphenylalaninemia.Methods:In this single-center prospective study, 40 newborns with suspected hyperphenylalaninemia detected by neonatal liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry screening at Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from February 2021 to February 2023 were included, with 22 males, 18 females and a mean age at diagnosis of 21.93 days.Capillary electrophoresis was used to detect 85 variants of the phenylalanine hydroxylase ( PAH) gene in 40 newborns with suspected hyperphenylalaninemia.The PAH gene of undiagnosed patients was further analyzed by Sanger sequencing.The detection rate, sensitivity and specificity of capillary electrophoresis were calculated. Results:Among these 40 newborns with suspected hyperphenylalaninemia, 71 PAH variants were detected by capillary electrophoresis, 32 patients were clearly diagnosed, only 1 pathogenic variant was found in 5 patients, and no pathogenic variant was found in the last 3 patients.Therefore, the detection rate, sensitivity and specificity of capillary electrophoresis for analysis of the PAH gene were 80.00%, 88.75% and 100%, respectively. Conclusions:The capillary electrophoresis-based method can rapidly, efficiently and accurately detect PAH gene variants at lower cost and is a promising gene detection method for hyperphenylalaninemia in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for anastomotic biliary stric-ture after liver transplantation.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinical data of 428 recipients who underwent allogeneic orthotopic liver transplantation in the First Hospital of Jilin University from September 2014 to August 2021 were collected. There were 324 males and 104 females, aged (52±10)years. Observation indicators: (1) surgical conditions of recipients; (2) occurrence of anastomotic biliary stricture after liver transplantation and its treat-ment; (3) analysis of influencing factors for anastomotic biliary stricture after liver transplantation. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination to detect occurrence of anastomotic biliary stricture and treatment up to August 30, 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Measure-ment data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers, and the chi-square test was used for comparison between groups. Logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis. Results:(1) Surgical conditions of recipients: the operation time of 428 recipients was 465(420,520)minutes, the cold ischemia time was 368(320,450)minutes, and the volume of intraoperative blood loss was 2 500(1 500,4 000)mL. Of the 428 recipients, 142 cases were performed continuous biliary posterior wall anastomosis + interrup-ted anterior wall anastomosis by polygluconate sutures, 286 cases were anastomosed with polypro-pylene sutures, including 169 cases undergoing continuous biliary posterior wall anastomosis combined with interrupted anterior wall anastomosis, 73 cases undergoing completely interrupted biliary anterior and posterior wall anastomosis, and 44 cases undergoing completely continuous biliary anterior and posterior wall anastomosis. None of the 428 recipients had indwelling T tubes. (2) Occurrence of anastomotic biliary stricture after liver transplantation and its treatment:all the 428 recipients were followed up for 3 to 72 months, with a median follow-up time of 28 months. During the follow-up, 50 patients developed anastomotic biliary stricture, of which 41 patients were treated with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, 8 patients were treated with percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage, and 1 patient was treated with surgery, showing no recurrence. (3)Analysis of influencing factors for anastomotic biliary stricture after liver transplanta-tion: results of univariate analysis showed that anastomosis method and donor liver cold ischemia time were related factors for postoperative anastomotic biliary stricture of recipients undergoing allogeneic orthotopic liver transplantation ( χ2=15.74, Z=-2.04, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that completely interrupted biliary anterior and posterior wall anastomosis and donor liver cold ischemia time were independent influencing factors for postoperative anastomotic biliary stricture of recipients undergoing allogeneic orthotopic liver transplantation ( odds ratio=0.25, 1.00, 95% confidence interval as 0.08-0.85, 1.00-1.01, P<0.05). Conclusions:Suture type is not an influencing factor for postoperative anastomotic biliary stricture of recipients undergoing allogeneic orthotopic liver transplantation. Completely interrupted biliary anterior and posterior wall anastomosis and donor liver cold ischemia time were independent influencing factors.

Objective:To compare postural reduction combined with percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs).Methods:From January 2019 to January 2020,68 patients with OVCFs who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the Second Hospital of Tangshan Hebei Province were included in the observation study. A prospective randomized controlled study was used. The matched groups were divided into PVP combined group (adjust the overextension of the operating table by 20°-30°, if the posture reduction fails, pry the puncture needle on both sides in reverse according to the compression degree of the end plate before operation, and inject bone cement) and PKP group (do not adjust the operating table before operation, insert a balloon and expand on both sides after operation, and inject bone cement), with 34 cases in each group. The Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae was measured by taking the anterior and lateral X-ray film of the patient's lumbar spine before operation. The degree of pain and low back function were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswetry disability index (ODI). The operation time and fluoroscopy times were recorded during the operation. On the second day after operation, the anterior and lateral X-ray of lumbar spine were taken to measure the Cobb angle of injured vertebrae. All patients were underwent computed tomography (CT) check the bone cement for leakage, record the VAS score, and record the ODI 3 months after operation to evaluate the patient's function. Follow up at the end of 12 months after operation to count the treatment cost and re-fracture of the patient. The data analysis and measurement data were compared by independent sample t-test between the two groups, paired sample t-test was used for intra-group comparison before and after operation. χ 2 test was used for counting data comparison between two groups. Results:All patients were followed up for 12 months. The operation time ((42.7±5.9) min), fluoroscopy times ((20.0±3.6) times) and treatment cost ((19 153±601) yuan) in the PVP combined group were better than those in the PKP Group ((67.4±7.3) min, (30.1±5.9) times, (27 496±669) yuan), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 15.39, 8.46, 54.12; all P<0.001). Cobb angle: Postoperative Cobb angle of injured vertebrae in the two groups (PVP combined group (10.7±4.5)°) and (PKP group (13.4±3.8)°) decreased compared with preoperative (PVP combined group (17.0±5.1)°) and (PKP group (16.7±5.1)°) ( t values were 10.61, 5.61; all P=0.001), and PVP combined group recovered better than PKP group, with statistically significant difference ( t=2.70, P=0.009). VAS score: Postoperative (PVP combined group (3.9±1.5) points) and (PKP group (4.1±1.6) points) was lower than preoperative the scores of (PVP combined group (6.9±1.1) points) and (PKP group (7.1±0.9) points), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 8.63, 8.88; all P=0.001). There was no significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups ( t=0.48, P=0.630). ODI scores: The scores of (PVP combined group (0.315±0.068)) and (PKP group (0.319±0.077)) after operation were lower than preoperative (PVP combined group (0.574±0.066), (PKP group (0.553±0.075)), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 18.54, 14.16, all P=0.001). There was no significant difference in ODI between the two groups ( t=0.25, P=0.803). There was no statistical significance in the two groups of postoperative bone cement leakage (χ 2=0.22, P=0.642). In PVP combined group, 1 case was re-fractured due to trauma, and there was no re-fracture in PKP group. Conclusion:Postural reduction combined with percutaneous needle prying reduction of PVP and PKP can alleviate the pain, improve the postoperative function and restore kyphosis in patients with OVCFs. Postural reduction combined with needle prying reduction of PVP has more advantages in operation time, radiation injury to doctors and patients, treatment cost, and the effect of correcting deformity is more significant.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and advantages of planned initiation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)prior to liver transplantation.Methods:From November 2017 to July 2021, clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 3 liver transplantation recipients assisted by ECMO.There were such preoperative symptoms of right ventricular dysfunction as fatigue, chest tightness and palpitations.In the first case, right heart catheterization was not performed due to patient refusal; another two patients were screened by transthoracic Doppler echocardiography(TDE)and diagnosed through right heart catheterization as portopulmonary hypertension(POPH)and pulmonary hypertension.Results:Three recipients with pulmonary hypertension received catheterization in right femoral artery and vein.After freeing of diseased liver and before blocking inferior vena cava, V-A ECMO support was performed.The dose of heparin was adjusted according to activated clotting time(ACT)and perioperative vital signs remained stable.They were ventilated for 54, 12 and 62 hours and supported by ECMO for 27, 61 and 14 hours.All were smoothly discharged.During a mean follow-up period of 26(9-22)months, liver functions were normal.Conclusions:Patients with end-stage liver disease with pulmonary hypertension should undergo routine TDE examinations during waiting period before liver transplantation.Those with pulmonary hypertension should undergo further right heart catheterization to confirm the diagnosis and severity of the disease.Planned application of ECMO through multidisciplinary consultations can expand surgical indications for liver transplantation, maintain intraoperative hemodynamic stability and facilitate smooth liver transplantation and postoperative patient recovery.

Objective:Rapid assessment of the outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is an important clinical issue. In this study, an electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis method based on dynamic learning was proposed.Methods:A total of 203 patients with ACS after successful PCI were enrolled for prospective analysis at the Emergency Department of Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from April 2019 to December 2020. All patients were divided into group without ≥70% postoperative stenosis ( n=72) and group with ≥ 70% postoperative stenosis ( n=131) according to the presence of 70% or more stenosis after PCI. The clinical data of ACS patients were collected and analyzed by χ2 test, t-test, or Mann-Whitney test. ECGs were recorded before and 2 h after PCI, and were dynamically analyzed to generate cardiodynamicsgram (CDG) using dynamic learning. In the group without ≥ 70% postoperative stenosis, the model and CDG index for evaluating myocardial ischemia were obtained by training support vector machine (SVM) using 10 times 10-fold cross-validation. Results:There was no significant difference in clinical data between the two groups. The prediction accuracy and sensitivity of the support vector machine model for myocardial ischemia in group without≥70% postoperative stenosis were 73.61%, and 84.72% respectively. CDG transformed from disorderly to regular after PCI, and CDG index decreased significantly ( P<0.001): 90.28% (65) patients in group without≥70% postoperative stenosis, and 79.39% (104) patients in group with≥70% postoperative stenosis had lower CDG indexes than before PCI. Conclusions:In this study, CDG obtained by dynamic learning can intuitively and effectively evaluate the changes of myocardial ischemia before and after PCI, which is helpful to assist clinicians to formulate the next treatment plan.

Objective To investigate the role of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) in the treatment of complex cholestatic liver injury after liver transplantation. Methods MDT consultation was conducted to clarify the causes and therapeutic strategies for one case of complex cholestatic liver injury after liver transplantation admitted to Liver Transplantation Center of the First Hospital of Jilin University on June 23, 2020. And the role of MDT in the treatment of complex cholestatic liver injury after liver transplantation was summarized. Results The patient presented with abnormal liver function after liver transplantation. The diagnosis of biliary stricture, rejection and biliary tract infection was confirmed successively. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) stent internal and external double drainage, glucocorticoid shock and anti-infection therapy yielded low clinical efficacy. After MDT consultation, complex cholestatic liver injury after liver transplantation was confirmed. It was suggested to optimize the immunosuppressive regimen based on the exclusion of rejections by pathological examination, deliver targeted anti-infection interventions and prevent the potential risk of concomitant drug-induced liver injury. The patient was discharged after proper recovery. Conclusions The causes of complex cholestatic liver injury after liver transplantation are diverse, and the condition changes dynamically. MDT consultation are performed to deepen the understanding of this disease, strengthen the classification of diagnosis and treatment ideas and enhance the precision and efficacy of corresponding treatment.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of Sacubitril/Valsartan for alleviating chronic heart failure(CHF)in elderly patients after acute myocardial infarction(AMI). Methods: A total of 87 elderly patients with AMI-induced CHF treated in Heze Shili Hospital from October 2017 to August 2018 were enrolled and randomly divided into the experimental group(n=42)and the control group(n=45). All patients were given standard AMI treatments, and patients in the experimental group were given Sacubitril/Valsartan(100 mg bid)while those in the control group received Valsartan(80 mg qd). After a follow-up of 12 months, levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVDd), left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), rates of rehospitalization for heart failure and all-cause mortality were compared between the two groups. Results: Among the 87 patients, 51 patients(58.6%)were male and 36 were female, with an averageage of(67.4±4.0)years.After 12-months of treatment, patients in the experimental group were associated with significantly lower levels of LVDd[(47.86±3.86)mm vs.(50.73±4.39)mm, P<0.05]and NT-proBNP[(793.43±335.43)ng/L vs.(1 068.44±344.46)ng/L, P<0.05]and higher levels of LVEF[(53.74±4.08)% vs.(44.42±7.41)%, P<0.05]than those in the control group.Moreover, the rehospitalization rate for heart failure was markedly higher in the control group than that in the experimental group[15(33.3%)vs.5(11.9%), P<0.05], while the rate of all-cause mortality was similar between the two groups[2(4.8%)vs.3(6.7%), P=0.703]. Conclusions Compared with Valsartan, Sacubitril/Valsartan can reduce the incidence of CHF after AMI, improve left ventricular function, and reduce the rehospitalization rate due to CHF in elderly patients.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the quality standard of Ligularia fischeri. METHODS:TLC was used for qualitative identification of samples. The contents of moisture,ash and extract were determined. The content of ferulic acid in samples was determined by HPLC. The determination was performed on Waters SunFire C18column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid(13:87,V/V)at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 319 nm, and column temperature was 30 ℃. The sample size was 10 μL. RESULTS:TLC spots were clear and well-separated without interference from genitive control. The moisture,total ash,acid-insoluble ash and extract of samples were 7.6%-9.4%, 11.7%-19.6%,5.9%-14.1% and 25.4%-37.5%,respectively. The linear range of ferulic acid were 0.021 2-0.636 8 μg(r=0.999 9). limited of quantation was 2.25 ng,the limited of detection was 0.75 ng. RSDs of intermediate precision, reproducibility and stability tests were all lower than 3.0%. The recoveries ranged 97.81%-100.59%(RSD=1.02%,n=9). CONCLUSIONS:The moisture,total ash and acid-insoluble ash of samples are no more than 10.0%,19.0%,12.0%;the extract and the content of ferulic acid are no less than 25.0% and 0.1%. Established standard can provide reference for quality control of L. fischeri.

OBJECTIVE: To identify pathogenic mutations in 25 Chinese pedigrees affected with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). METHODS: Mutations of the CYP21A2 gene were detected with locus-specific PCR/restriction endonuclease analysis, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification assay, and direct sequencing of the entire CYP21A2 gene. Prenatal diagnosis was offered to fetuses at risk for CAH. RESULTS: All 50 alleles of the CYP21A2 gene carried by the 25 pedigrees were successfully delineated. Large deletions and conversions have accounted for 16 (32%) of the alleles, which included 9 entire CYP21A2 gene deletions, 6 chimeric CYP21A1P/CYP21A2 genes, and 1 partial conversion of the CYP21A2 gene. For the remaining 34 alleles, there were 9 micro-conversions and 4 de novo mutations [including a previously unreported c.62G>A (p.Trp21X) mutation]. Prenatal diagnosis was provided for 28 fetuses with a high risk for CAH, among whom 8 were found to be affected. CONCLUSION The detection of CYP21A2 gene mutations can facilitate appropriate genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for the affected pedigrees.
