OBJECTIVE To analyze the clinical characteristics and influential factors of drug-induced liver injury （DILI） in children caused by intravenous azithromycin. METHODS Clinical data of 157 DILI pediatric cases caused by intravenous azithromycin， reported by the Hengshui Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring Center from January 2015 to January 2025， were collected as the observation group. Clinical data of pediatric patients who received intravenous azithromycin but did not develop DILI during the same period at Hengshui People’s Hospital were collected in a 1∶1 ratio to serve as the control group. The clinical classification， severity and prognosis of DILI in pediatric patients from the observation group were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to screen the independent risk factors for DILI in children caused by intravenous azithromycin. RESULTS Among 157 DILI cases， 92 cases （58.60%） had hepatocellular injury-type， 51 cases （32.48%） had cholestatic-type， and 14 cases （8.92%） had mixed-type. DILI severity was grade 1 in 117 cases （74.52%）， grade 2 in 33 cases （21.02%）， and grade 3 in 7 cases （4.46%）. Liver function had all recovered after stopping medication and symptomatic treatment. Combined with acetaminophen [OR＝3.769， 95%CI （1.615， 8.235）， P＝0.021]， daily dose of azithromycin＞10 mg/kg [OR＝ 2.237， 95%CI （1.075， 4.655）， P＝0.034] were independent risk factors for DILI in children caused by intravenous azithromycin. CONCLUSIONS Hepatocellular injury-type and cholestatic-type are relatively common in children with DILI caused by intravenous azithromycin， with mild severity being predominant and showing a favorable prognosis. Combination with acetaminophen and daily dose＞10 mg/kg are independent risk factors for azithromycin-induced DILI in children.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a life-threatening gastrointestinal disorder for which no effective pharmacological treatments are currently available. One of the pharmacological targets that merits further research is the neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R), which is found on pancreatic acinar cells and responds to the neuropeptide substance P (SP) that participates in AP. Although a few studies have stated the involvement of SP/NK1R in neurogenic inflammation in AP development, the regulatory mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we found that following activation of NK1R by SP, β-arrestin1, a scaffold protein of NK1R, down-regulated transcription of Adss, Adsl, and Ampd in the purine nucleotide cycle, thereby inhibiting mitochondrial function through fumarate depletion. Interestingly, we identified magnolol as a new and natural NK1R inhibitor with a non-nitrogenous biphenyl core structure. It exhibited a beneficial effect on AP by restoring purine nucleotide cycle metabolic enzymes and fumarate levels. Our study not only provides new therapeutic strategies, leading compounds, and drug translation possibilities for AP, but also provides important clues for the study of downstream mechanisms driven by SP in other diseases.

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 investigate the effect of KRAS,NRAS and BRAF gene mutations on the efficacy of pre-operative short-course radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy and postoperative liver metastasis in patients with stage Ⅱ～Ⅲ mid-low rectal cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 149 patients with stage Ⅱ～Ⅲ low rectal cancer admitted to Dongnan Hospital of Xiamen University from January 2017 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients received neoadjuvant therapy with preoperative short-course radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy and radical surgery,and were followed up until June 30,2023.The mutations of KRAS,NRAS and BRAF genes were de-tected by pathological tissue before surgery.The effect of neoadjuvant therapy was evaluated according to tumor re-gression grade(TRG).The risk factors of postoperative liver metastasis were analyzed by Logistic multivariate analysis.Results:There were 44 cases of KRAS,10 cases of NRAS and 12 cases of BRAF gene mutation in 149 patients with stage Ⅱ～Ⅲ low rectal cancer,and the mutation rates were 29.53%,6.71%and 8.05%.The incidence of positive vas-cular invasion in patients with KRAS gene mutation was higher than negative(P＜0.05).In NRAS mutation patients,the incidence of positive lymph node metastasis was higher than negative(P＜0.05),and the incidence of maximum tumor diameter≥5 cm was higher than that of maximum tumor diameter＜5 cm(P＜0.05).The clinical stage of BRAF muta-tion was higher in stage Ⅲ than in stage Ⅱ(P＜0.05),and the incidence of positive lymph node metastasis was higher than negative(P＜0.05).During the follow-up period,liver metastasis occurred in 42 patients,and the liver metastasis rate was 28.18%.The KRAS,NRAS and BRAF gene mutations in the effective group were 25.81%,2.15%and 3.23%,lower than those in the ineffective group(35.71%,14.29%and 17.07%,P＜0.05).Multiple factors found clinical stage Ⅲ(OR=10.620,95%CI:2.645～22.575),lymph node metastasis was positive(OR=8.774,95%CI:1.878～19.645),neoadju-vant therapy failed(OR=3.373,95%CI:1.014～11.218),KRAS gene mutation(OR=6.245,95%CI:1.876～20.789),BRAF gene mutation(OR=9.497,95%CI:1.754～19.335)were independent risk factors for postoperative liver metastasis of stage Ⅱ～Ⅲ mid-low rectal cancer.Conclusion:Mutations in the KRAS and BRAF genes of middle are associated with poorer efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy in patients with stage Ⅱ～Ⅲ mid-low rectal cancer and are also indepen-dent risk factors for postoperative liver metastasis.

Nodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma(NMZL),the least common subtype of marginal zone lymphoma,represents a low-grade malignancy arising from the marginal zone of lymph node follicles,composed of small B-cells with an inert non-Hodgkin lymphoma nature.It accounts for 1.5% to 1.8% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas and 10% of all marginal zone lymphomas.The low incidence and lack of typical clinical and pathological features pose a challenge to the diagnosis and clinical management of NMZL.In this article,we reported the diagnosis and treatment of a case of NMZL located in the parapharyngeal space of the left neck and reviewed the relevant literature from both domestic and international sources.We summarized the clinical manifestations,histopathological features,immunohistochemical characteristics,imaging features,diagnosis and treatment modalities,and prognosis of NMZL.

Objective To investigate the internalized weight bias and weight control beliefs regarding the current status,influencing factors,and impacts on eating behaviors of women losing weight. Methods A convenient sampling method was used to select the females who underwent physical examination in the Peking Union Medical College Hospital from August to December 2023.The general information questionnaire,Weight Bias Internalization Scale,Weight Control Belief Questionnaire,and Chinese version of Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire were utilized for investigation.Latent class analysis was conducted to explore the potential categories based on the characteristics of internalized weight bias and weight control beliefs.Univariate analysis and multiple-factor linear regression analysis were performed to explore influencing factors of potential categories and their effects on eating behaviors. Results A total of 518 subjects were included in this study.The internalized weight bias and weight control beliefs could be classified into three potential categories: low weight bias tolerance type(53.7%),medium weight bias persistence type(29.5%),and high weight bias overcritical type(16.8%).Logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index,unmarriage,and divorce were the influencing factors of the high weight bias overcritical type.The scores of non-control eating and emotional eating in medium weight bias persistence type and high weight bias overcritical type were higher than those in low weight bias tolerance type(all P<0.001). Conclusions The attitudes of Chinese women towards body weight can be categorized into low weight bias tolerance type,medium weight bias persistence type,and high weight bias overcritical type.The high weight bias overcritical type is characterized by high weight bias and high personal responsibility attribution,and it is closely associated with negative eating behaviors.A high body mass index,unmarriage,and divorce are high-risk factors for developing the high weight bias overcritical type.

Obesity, as a chronic recurrent disease, has become a major public health challenge in China. To implement the requirements of the Healthy China Initiative (2019—2030), under domestic guidelines or consensus statements on overweight and obesity, and in alignment with the latest scientific advances globally, the Quality control protocol for adult overweight and obesity screening in health management (examination) institutions (2025 edition) was developed. This protocol was drafted by the Health Management Center of Shanghai Changzheng Hospital and formulated through multiple rounds of deliberation by experts in China’s health examination quality control field. The protocol establishes unified standards for screening facilities, personnel qualifications, and measurement or testing procedures. It defines specific screening items, outlines a standardized screening pathway, and sets requirements for the final medical review, ensuring the scientific validity, effectiveness, and safety of the screening process. The implementation of this protocol will enhance the consistency of weight management practices for adults across health examination institutions and strengthen the quality control of overweight and obesity screening programs.

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 develop the application technology of finger length ratios in the selection of Muay Thai athletes,and to provide practical guidance for improving the competitive level of Muay Thai.Methods By using the method of snowball sampling and simple random sampling,413 subjects were selected in Bangkok,Thailand,including 84 male Muay Thai professional players,62 female Muay Thai professional players,137 ordinary male college students and 130 female college students.The finger length of the subjects was measured and their finger length ratios was calculated.SPSS 20.0 statistical software was used for discriminant analysis.Results The 2D∶3D,2D∶4D,2D∶5D,3D∶4D and 3D∶5D of male Muay Thai professional players were significantly lower than that in the general male Thai population,and the 2D∶4D,3D∶4D and 3D∶5D of female Muay Thai players were significantly lower than that in the general female Thai population,and the above differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Discriminant functions developed using both the full model and stepwise method were statistically significant,demonstrating high accuracy and stability.The correct discrimination rates were higher in the male population than that in the female population.When distinguishing between Muay Thai professional fighters and the general Thai population,the optimal 2D∶4D threshold for males is 0.951,and for females,it was 0.960.Conclusion The discriminant model of Muay Thai professional players and ordinary people based on the ratios of finger length can provide important reference for the selection of Muay Thai athletes.
