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 construct an indicator system for a nursing science and technology innovation curriculum guided by innovation competence, in order to provide a reference for cultivating innovation ability in nursing students.Methods:The overall research period was from March to December 2024. A nursing innovation curriculum indicator framework was initially developed through literature analysis and brainstorming. From October to December 2024, 19 experts from nine hospitals or universities across five provinces and cities were selected via purposive sampling to participate in two rounds of Delphi consultation. Revisions were made based on expert feedback.Results:Both rounds of expert consultation achieved a 100% response rate. The authority coefficient of the experts was 0.92. The final indicator system included four curriculum elements: course content, course objectives, teaching methods, and assessment, encompassing 14 first-level indicators and 40 second-level indicators.Conclusions:The innovation-oriented indicator system for nursing science and technology education demonstrates good scientific validity and reliability. It offers a foundational framework for advancing innovation-focused nursing education and curriculum design.

Objective:To describe the distribution characteristics of alcohol consumption in adult twins in the Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR), and further explore the influence of genetic factors on alcohol consumption in adult twins.Methods:The subjects of the study were twins registered by CNTR in 11 project areas across China from 2010 to 2018. A total of 56 966 twins (28 483 pairs) aged 18 years and above who answered questions about drinking behavior were included, and the random effect model was used to describe the population and regional distribution characteristics of alcohol consumption. Intra-pair analysis was performed to calculate the concordance rate and heritability of their alcohol consumption.Results:The age of all subjects was (36.6±12.0) years, and current drinkers accounted for 16.6% (9 461/56 966) of all subjects. In men, those aged 50-59 years, those in northern China, those living in rural area, those with low education level and those with high BMI, the proportions of current drinkers were higher. After excluding 468 pairs of twins who had stopped alcohol use and 21 764 pairs of twins who had no drink or had small amount drink, an intra-pair analysis was conducted in 4 929 pairs of same-sex twins, and found that the concordance rate of alcohol consumption was 64.0% (2 059/3 215) in monozygotic twins, and 52.6% (902/1 714) in dizygotic twins, the difference was significant ( P<0.001), and the heritability of alcohol consumption was 24.1% (95% CI: 18.9%- 29.3%). The further stratified analysis found that in southern men, the heritability was highest in those aged 40-49 years (36.1%, 95% CI: 21.6%-50.7%), while in northern men, the heritability was highest in those aged 50-59 years (34.2%, 95% CI: 18.1%-50.3%). Conclusions:In adult twins in China, there were population and regional differences in the distribution of alcohol consumption behavior, and alcohol consumption was influenced by genetic factors, and gender, age and region had potential modifying effects.

Obesity presents significant challenges in spinal surgery, including higher rates of perioperative complications, prolonged operative times, and delayed recovery. Traditional open spine surgery often exacerbates these risks, particularly in patients with obesity, because of extensive tissue dissection and larger incisions. Endoscopic spine surgery (ESS) has emerged as a promising minimally invasive alternative, offering advantages such as reduced tissue trauma, minimal blood loss, lower infection rates, and faster recovery. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and outcomes of ESS techniques, including fully endoscopic and biportal endoscopic lumbar discectomy and decompression, in patients with obesity and lumbar spine pathologies. A comprehensive literature search of the PubMed/Medline, Embase, and Scopus databases yielded 2,975 studies published between 2000 and 2024, of which 10 met the inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis revealed significant improvements in pain relief (Visual Analog Scale) and functional outcomes (Oswestry Disability Index), with comparable results between patients with and without obesity. Patients who are obese experienced longer operative times and have a slightly higher risk of symptom recurrence; however, ESS demonstrated lower rates of wound infections, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery than traditional surgery. These findings position ESS as a viable and effective option for managing lumbar spine conditions in patients with obesity, addressing obesity-related surgical challenges while maintaining favorable clinical outcomes. However, limitations such as study heterogeneity and the lack of randomized controlled trials highlight the need for further high-quality research to refine ESS techniques and optimize patient care in this high-risk population.

Based on the previous transcriptomic experimental data of Trichinella spiralis(T.spira-lis)in this study,the larval stage specific gene TP12446 was screened and its identity in the ubiq-uitin ligase RNF family was predicted.In the study,bioinformatics methods were used to analyze its physicochemical properties and its activity to lay the foundation for further exploring the func-tion of TP12446 gene.The physicochemical properties and protein structure of TP12446 protein were predicted by bioinformatics.Its ubiquitin ligase activity was also verified by ubiquitination re-actions in vitro.The expression characteristics of TP12446 protein in different stage of T.spiralis infection were analyzed by qPCR and Western blot.Bioinformatics analysis showed that TP12446 protein was composed of 453 amino acids and its molecular weight was 51.48 kDa.The protein had a transmembrane structure and contained signal peptides.The results indicated that it was a secre-tory protein and mainly located in the cytoplasmic membrane.The protein structure analysis re-vealed that the protein contained RING and PA domain,its secondary structure was mainly com-posed of α-helix and irregular crimp and there were 10 B cell epitopes on TP12446 protein.The prediction of glycosylation and phosphorylation sites indicated that TP12446 protein contained 38 potential phosphorylation sites.Results of PPI interaction protein prediction showed that TP12446 protein had strong interaction with Usp8,Tmem37,Otub1,Otub2,Ubox5 and CD151.The results of qPCR and Western blot showed that TP12446 gene expression was the highest in the larva stage of T.spiralis,the activity of ubiquitin ligase was verified by ubiquitination reaction in vitro.TP12446 protein was a secretory hydrophobic protein with E3 ubiquitin ligase activity,which was involved in regulating cell cycle and apoptosis.
