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 preferences for professional risks insurance among healthcare professionals in Chinese tertiary hospitals,providing a reference for understanding core demands and formulating personalized insurance plans.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted among 187 healthcare professionals from 9 tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province using acombination of stratified and convenience sampling.Mixed Logit models and the joint utility method were employed for analysis of the overall sample and clinical/non-clinical subgroups.Results:The mixed Logit model revealed that the type of compensation,insurance platform,and insurance duration significantly influenced the insurance attribute preferences of healthcare professionals(P<0.05),with the type of compensation having the greatest impact(β=0.220).The joint utility analysis indicated that insurance duration was of the highest relative importance(39%),while the premium amount was of the least importance(4%).In subgroup analysis,for clinical professionals,the type of compensation and insurance duration significantly influenced insurance attribute preferences,with the type of compensation having the greatest impact(β=0.277),followed by insurance duration.For non-clinical professionals,the premium amount and insurance platform were significant factors,with the premium amount being the most influential.Conclusion:Efficiency is a common core consideration for healthcare professionals when choosing insurance preferences,while economic factors are not central to the considerations of clinical professionals.The influence and role of medical associations in mitigating occupational risks need to be enhanced.It is suggested that future insurance products should fully consider the differences in the scope of practice,target certain attributes for enhancement,and strengthen the influence of medical associations in ensuring professional risks.

Objective:To study the effects of rapid rehabilitation surgery and pulmonary rehabilitation management on patients undergoing valve replacement surgery for valvular heart disease(VHD).Methods:A total of 100 VHD patients who underwent heart valve replacement surgery in Jiangsu Province(Suqian)Hospital between January 2019 and December 2022 were included in this randomized controlled study.Patients were divided into control group(n=50)and intervention group(n=50).Patients in the control group received routine nursing intervention and basic pulmonary rehabilitation training,while those in the intervention group received rapid rehabilitation surgery nursing and pulmonary rehabilitation management mode.Both groups received continuous intervention until 7d after surger-y.The treatment time after intervention,psychological status and pulmonary function,and incidence of major ad-verse cardiovascular events(MACE)within 12-month follow-up were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared to those in the control group,patients in the intervention group had significant lower postoperative tra-cheal extubation time[(21.36±3.82)h vs.(28.46±4.19)h],ICU stay[(4.21±1.19)d vs.(7.02±1.35)d],time in bed[(3.23±0.84)d vs.(5.84±1.47)d],total hospital stay[(9.86±1.67)d vs.(13.12±2.44)d],scores of self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)[(40.86±2.41)points vs.(45.32±3.12)points]and self-rating de-pression scale(SDS)[(40.30±4.17)points vs.(45.16±3.20)points](P＜0.001 all),and significant higher first second forced expiratory volume(FEVl)[(4.12±0.17)L vs.(3.67±0.22)L],forced vital capacity(FVC)[(4.75±0.38)Lvs.(3.89±0.33)L],FEV1 percentage of the estimated value(FEV1％pred)[(66.12±3.78)％vs.(59.08±3.82)％],and FEV1/FVC[(60.40±5.22)％vs.(55.60±3.35)％](P＜0.001 all).Compared to those in the control group,patients in the intervention group had significant lower incidence of adverse events(8.00％vs.24.00％,P=0.029).Conclusion:The use of rapid rehabilitation surgery nuvsing and pulmonary reha-bilitation management may significantly shorten therapeutic time,alleviate adverse psychological state,improve pul-monary function and prognosis in patients undergoing valve replacement surgery for valvular heart disease.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between ABO blood types and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk. METHODS: A prospective birth cohort study was conducted. ABO blood types were determined using the slide method. GDM diagnosis was based on a 75-g, 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) according to the criteria of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups. Logistic regression was applied to calculate the odds ratios ( ORs) and 95% confidence intervals ( CIs) between ABO blood types and GDM risk. RESULTS: A total of 30,740 pregnant women with a mean age of 31.81 years were enrolled in this study. The ABO blood types distribution was: type O (30.99%), type A (26.58%), type B (32.20%), and type AB (10.23%). GDM was identified in 14.44% of participants. Using blood type O as a reference, GDM risk was not significantly higher for types A ( OR = 1.05) or B ( OR = 1.04). However, women with type AB had a 19% increased risk of GDM ( OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.05-1.34; P < 0.05), even after adjusting for various factors. This increased risk for type AB was consistent across subgroup and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION The ABO blood types may influence GDM risk, with type AB associated with a higher risk. Incorporating it-either as a single risk factor or in combination with other known factors-could help identify individuals at risk for GDM before or during early pregnancy.

OBJECTIVE: Epidemiological studies have shown that vitamin D status affects glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, findings from intervention studies remain inconsistent. Therefore, a network meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the comparative efficacy of various vitamin D supplementation strategies on glucose indicators in adults with T2DM. METHODS: Eligible studies published before September 12, 2024, were retrieved from PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. A network meta-analysis of multiple dosage strategies-low (< 1,000 IU/day, LDS), medium (1,000-2,000 IU/day, MDS), high (2,000-4,000 IU/day, HDS), and extremely high (≥ 4,000 IU/day, EHDS)-was performed. RESULTS: The network meta-analysis of 40 RCTs indicated that, compared with placebo, vitamin D ₃ supplementation increased 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25-(OH)-D] levels, with pooled mean difference ( MD) showing a stepwise increase from LDS to EHDS. Ranking probabilities showed a corresponding rise in 25-(OH)-D levels from LDS (46.7%) to EHDS (91.2%). EHDS reduced fasting blood glucose (FBG) relative to no treatment. LDS significantly decreased hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and vitamin D ₂ significantly affected FBG levels. MDS led to a significant change in fasting insulin (FIN) compared to both placebo ( MD: -4.76; 95% CI -8.91 to -0.61) and no treatment ( MD: -7.30; 95% CI -14.44 to -0.17). CONCLUSION The findings suggest that vitamin D supplementation may be a viable approach for improving glycemic control in adults with T2DM, with lower doses potentially offering benefit. The analysis also showed a dose-dependent increase in 25-(OH)-D levels.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study. METHODS: A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants. RESULTS: Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m ²) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m ²) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m ²) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m ² ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.

Wastewater-based epidemiology has emerged as a transformative surveillance tool for estimating substance consumption and monitoring disease prevalence, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. It enables the population-level monitoring of illicit drug use, pathogen prevalence, and environmental pollutant exposure. In this perspective, we summarize the key challenges specific to the Chinese context: (1) Sampling inconsistencies, necessitating standardized 24-hour composite protocols with high-frequency autosamplers (≤ 15 min/event) to improve the representativeness of samples; (2) Biomarker validation, requiring rigorous assessment of excretion profiles and in-sewer stability; (3) Analytical method disparities, demanding inter-laboratory proficiency testing and the development of automated pretreatment instruments; (4) Catchment population dynamics, reducing estimation uncertainties through mobile phone data, flow-based models, or hydrochemical parameters; and (5) Ethical and data management concerns, including privacy risks for small communities, mitigated through data de-identification and tiered reporting platforms. To address these challenges, we propose an integrated framework that features adaptive sampling networks, multi-scale wastewater sample banks, biomarker databases with multidimensional metadata, and intelligent data dashboards. In summary, wastewater-based epidemiology offers unparalleled scalability for equitable health surveillance and can improve the health of the entire population by providing timely and objective information to guide the development of targeted policies.
