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.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of modified Xiehuangsan in treating tic disorders (TD) based on microglial polarization and the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88)/nuclear factor (NF)-κB pathway. MethodsSeventy-two Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly assigned into six groups: control, model, tiapride (0.025 g·kg-1), and low-, medium-, and high-dose (12, 24, 48 g·kg-1, respectively) modified Xiehuangsan, with 12 rats in each group. Except the control group, the other groups received intraperitoneal injection of 3,3'-iminodipropionitrile (IDPN) for 7 consecutive days for the modeling of TD. After successful modeling, the control and model groups were given normal saline via gavage, and the other groups were administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage. After 28 days of continuous intervention, rat behaviors were observed, and the modified Xiehuangsan group showing the best anti-TD effect was selected for deciphering the treatment mechanism. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was conducted to observe morphological changes in the rat striatum. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of CD16 and CD206 in the striatum. Real-time PCR was employed to measure the mRNA levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-4, TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 in the striatum. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (Iba1), Fc receptor family for immunoglobulin (Ig)G type Ⅲ (CD16), mannose receptor (CD206), TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 in the striatum. ResultsCompared with the control group, the model group showed increased stereotyped behaviors, locomotor activity, total movement distance, and movement speed, shortened resting time (P<0.01), and noticeable pathological changes in the striatum. Compared with the model group, the tiapride group and modified Xiehuangsan groups exhibited reduced stereotyped behavior, locomotor activity, total movement distance, and movement speed, prolonged resting time (P<0.05, P<0.01), and alleviated pathological changes in the striatum. Among the modified Xiehuangsan groups, the high-dose group had the best intervention effect and the mildest pathological changes. Therefore, the high-dose group was selected for further research. Compared with the control group, the modeling of TD increased Iba1 and CD16 expression (P<0.05, P<0.01), up-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1β and TNF-α (P<0.05, P<0.01), down-regulated the mRNA level of IL-4 (P<0.05), up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of TLR4 and MyD88 (P<0.05, P<0.01), and up-regulated the protein level of NF-κB p65 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, modified Xiehuangsan reduced Iba1 and CD16 expression (P<0.05, P<0.01), up-regulated the protein level of CD206 (P<0.05, P<0.01), down-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1β and TNF-α (P<0.05), up-regulated the mRNA level of IL-4 (P<0.01), and down-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionModified Xiehuangsan demonstrated a definite therapeutic effect on TD in rats. It may reduce neuroinflammation in TD rats by regulating the polarization of microglia in the striatum via the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:To report the results of bacterial resistant investigation collaborative system(BRICS)on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2023,and provide reference for clinical tretment of bloodstream infections and prevention and control of bacterial resistance.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of BRICS were collected during January 2023 to December 2023. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI). WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period,11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals,of which 10 098(87.9%)were Enterobacterales and 1 394(12.1%)were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli(50.0%), Klebsiella pneumoniae(26.1%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa(5.1%), Acinetobacter baumannii complex(5.0%)and Enterobacter cloacae complex(4.1%). The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%(2 685/5 741),18.3%(549/2 999)and 44.0%(77/175),respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli(CREC)and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)were 1.3%(76/5 741)and 15.0%(450/2 999);32.9%(25/76)and 78.0%(351/450)of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination,respectively. 94.7%(72/76)and 90.2%(406/450)of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore,57.9%(44/76)and 79.1%(356/450)were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)complex was 64.6%(370/573),while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline,eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 17.0%(99/581). There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China,with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC,CRKP,CRPA and CRAB complex( χ2=10.6,28.6,10.8 and 19.3, P<0.05). The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli, CREC,CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals( χ2=12.5,9.8,12.7 and 57.8,all P<0.01). Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China,and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top,while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend,CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level,and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.

OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of Shaoyao gancao decoction in improving intestinal motility in rats with slow transit constipation(STC)by regulating acid-sensitive ion channel 3(ASIC3)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK)signaling pathway.METHODS SD rats were used to construct an STC model by gavage with compound diphenoxylate.The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into model group,Shaoyao gancao decoction group(1.5 g/mL),lactulose group(208.4 mg/mL,positive control),and combined inhibition group(Shaoyao gancao decoction 1.5 g/mL+amiloride hydrochloride 20 μg/kg),with 12 rats in each group.Additionally,12 healthy rats were selected as the blank group.They were given relevant medicine once a day and continuously intervened for 14 days.After intervention,the intestinal propulsion function and visceral sensitivity of the model rats were detected.The expression of ASIC3 in the colon tissue of rats was observed by immunohistochemical staining.mRNA expressions of ASIC3,ERK1 and ERK2 as well as protein expressions of ASIC3,ERK1/2 and phosphorylated ERK1/2(p-ERK1/2)in colon tissue of rats were detected;the ultrastructural changes of the enteric nervous system(ENS)-interstitial cell of Cajal(ICC)-smooth muscle cell(SMC)network in the rat colon were observed under electron microscopy.RESULTS Compared with the model group,the intestinal propulsion rate of the Shaoyao gancao decoction group was significantly increased,while the visceral pain threshold was significantly decreased.The proportion of the positive area of ASIC3 in the colonic tissue was significantly increased.The relative mRNA expression levels of ERK1,ERK2,and ASIC3,as well as the relative protein expression levels of p-ERK1/2 and ASIC3,and the p-ERK1/2 to ERK1/2 in the colonic tissue,were all significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Additionally,there was marked repair of the morphological structure of ICC and SMC,with closer gap junctions observed.Compared with the Shaoyao gancao decoction group,the combined inhibition group exhibited a diminished improvement in intestinal motility of rats,with statistically significant differences in the levels of some indicators(P<0.05 or P<0.01);the repairing of the morphological structure of ICC and SMC was notably attenuated.CONCLUSIONS Shaoyao gancao decoction can effectively improve the intestinal transmission function and promote intestinal repair in STC rats,and its mechanism may be related to regulating the balance of the ENS-ICC-SMC network mediated by the ASIC3/ERK signaling pathway,thus promoting intestinal motility and reducing visceral sensitivity.

Objective:To investigate and analyze basic status of radiotherapy units in Hebei Province in 2024.Methods:Led by the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, the Radiation Oncology Branch of the Hebei Medical Association, and the Radiation Oncology Expert Committee of the Hebei Society of Clinical Oncology, a province-wide survey was conducted using structured questionnaires. The survey covered key aspects such as basic information of radiotherapy institutions, personnel allocation, equipment configuration, and implementation of radiotherapy techniques. Collected data were summarized and descriptively analyzed comparing with a 2013 survey of radiotherapy in Hebei Province.Results:All 158 radiotherapy institutions across Hebei Province participated in the survey. A total of 2273 radiotherapy professionals were reported, including 1317 radiation oncologists (57.94%), 332 medical physicists (14.61%), 71 radiotherapy engineers (3.12%), and 553 radiotherapy technologists (24.33%). The number of radiotherapy devices significantly increased from 121 in 2013 to 237 in 2024, including 68 domestic radiotherapy equipment. The current inventory includes 195 medical linear accelerators (2.61 units per million population), 2 cobalt-60 units, 27 afterloading machines, 9 tomotherapy (TOMO) systems, 3 CyberKnife units, and 1 proton therapy system. Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy and stati intensity-modulated radiotherapy have been widely adopted across the province, while advanced techniques such as volumetric-modulated arc therapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy, and respiration-gated technology, and respiratory gating are gradually being implemented.Conclusions:In recent years, the configuration of radiotherapy personnel in Hebei Province has become more balanced, and the availability of precision radiotherapy equipment has significantly improved. There is a growing trend in the adoption of domestically manufactured radiotherapy equipment, marking substantial progress in the development of radiation oncology services in the region.
