Objective:
To explore the influencing factors for implementation of weight management services in primary medical and healthcare institutions, so as to provide references for implementing sustainable services of weight management.
Methods:
From May to June 2025, Pinghu City, Zhejiang Province was selected as the survey site. Personnel responsible for weight management in primary medical and healthcare institutions were selected as the survey subjects using a combined method of purposive sampling and snowball sampling. Based on the five core domains of the consolidated framework for implementation research (CFIR), a semi-structured interview outline for weight management services in primary medical and healthcare institutions was designed. Original data was collected through face-to-face semi-structured interviews. Interview data was organized and analyzed using framework analysis. Factors affecting weight management services were quantitatively analyzed by referencing CFIR's structural rating criteria.
Results:
A total of 21 participants completed interviews, covering positions in nutrition, endocrinology, traditional Chinese medicine, general practice, maternal health, and public health. There were 9 males and 12 females. Fifteen participants (71.43%) were aged 35 years and above, 18 (85.71%) held a bachelor's degree or higher, and 15 (71.43%) were frontline medical staff. Fifteen factors affecting weight management services were identified across five domains: innovation, outer setting, inner setting, individuals, and implementation process. Six barrier factors were identified: difficulties in policy implementation, time-consuming interventions, limited incentive measures, lack of professional skills, unclear weight-loss plans and goal setting, and imperfect follow-up and evaluation mechanisms. Three neutral factors were identified: the development and refinement of policies and regulations, the implementation of weight management training, and the optimization of the referral process within integrated healthcare systems (medical alliances / communities). Six facilitating factors were identified: the relatively significant advantages of lifestyle interventions, collaboration and coordination across multiple departments, cooperative communication among different units within the institution, the inherent convenience of primary care settings, a strong sense of professional responsibility, and the establishment of multidisciplinary teams.
Conclusions
The delivery of weight management services in primary medical and healthcare institutions is influenced by a wide array of factors across multiple domains. It requires policy support, multi-department coordination, a practice-oriented training system, optimized team resource allocation, incentives, and improved professional skills of medical staff to jointly promote long-term implementation.

Programmed cell death protein ligand-1(PD-L1)is an important immune checkpoint molecule that plays an important role in regulating the body's immune response.Several clinical studies have shown that the expression level of PD-L1 in tumors is closely related to the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors.Due to the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of tumors,immunohistochemical methods commonly used in clinical practice cannot accurately and comprehensively reflect the ex-pression level of PD-L1 in patients.Given that nuclear-medicine molecular imaging technology can noninvasively,real-time,dy-namically and visually monitor the expression level of PD-L1 in vivo at the molecular level,this article mainly focuses on the re-search of peptide-based radiolabeled molecular probes targeting PD-L1,with the aim of providing guidance for the search of no-vel peptide molecular probes for immunoimaging as well as for the screening of immunotherapy-suitable patients and evaluation of therapeutic efficacy,and other clinical applications.
3.Advances in study of relationships between gene polymorphisms and manganese poisoning
Journal of Environmental and Occupational Medicine 2024;41(11):1319-1324
Occupational manganese poisoning is one of the most important occupational diseases in China, and it can cause different degrees of damage to various organs of the body, among which neurotoxicity is particularly obvious. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) refers to the presence of two or more alleles of a gene in a population. This genetic variation may affect an individual's sensitivity to environmental toxins, and most cases may be caused by complex gene-environment interactions. Recent studies have shown that the pathogenesis of manganese poisoning is closely related to genetic polymorphisms, which can alter the body's susceptibility to manganese by affecting metabolism among other pathways. In this paper, we reviewed the relationships between genes related to oxidative stress, iron metabolism, neurotransmitter metabolism, zinc transporter, parkinsonism, DNA damage repair, calcium transporting ATPase type 2C member 2 and manganese poisoning, aiming to explore the key polymorphic genes affecting manganese poisoning and to provide genetic insights into the specific mechanisms of manganese poisoning caused by occupational exposure and its prevention and treatment.

Molecular knowledge of human gastric corpus epithelium remains incomplete. Here, by integrated analyses using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), spatial transcriptomics, and single-cell assay for transposase accessible chromatin sequencing (scATAC-seq) techniques, we uncovered the spatially resolved expression landscape and gene-regulatory network of human gastric corpus epithelium. Specifically, we identified a stem/progenitor cell population in the isthmus of human gastric corpus, where EGF and WNT signaling pathways were activated. Meanwhile, LGR4, but not LGR5, was responsible for the activation of WNT signaling pathway. Importantly, FABP5 and NME1 were identified and validated as crucial for both normal gastric stem/progenitor cells and gastric cancer cells. Finally, we explored the epigenetic regulation of critical genes for gastric corpus epithelium at chromatin state level, and identified several important cell-type-specific transcription factors. In summary, our work provides novel insights to systematically understand the cellular diversity and homeostasis of human gastric corpus epithelium in vivo.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Danggui Niantongtang (DGNT) against adjuvant arthritis (AA) rats with wind-dampness-heat arthralgia by quantitative proteomics. MethodSixty SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, angelica came pain soup low, medium and high dose group and methotrexate (MTX) group, each group of 10, only the rat tail root subcutaneously inactivated mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) of adjuvant to build model of AA, artificial climate box intervention 16 d rheumatic fever bi syndrome model is set up, building the day began to drug intervention, The intervention lasted for 28 days. The proteins of synovial tissues in experimental rats were extracted. The differential proteins in the medium-dose DGNT group and the model group were detected and analyzed by 4D label-free quantification (4D-LFQ) proteomics. The differentially expressed proteins associated with mitochondrial pathway apoptosis were verified by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. ResultA total of 4 756 proteins were identified from rat synovial tissues, of which 4 234 proteins contained quantitative information. There were 814 differential proteins between the model group and the DGNT group. As revealed by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genome (KEGG) enrichment analyses, DGNT had an effect on the synovial proteome of AA rats with wind-dampness-heat arthralgia, and the differential proteins were enriched in the regulation of the immune system, response to acute inflammation, and apoptosis regulation. As demonstrated by the results of immunohistochemistry and Western blot, compared with the model group, the DGNT groups and the MTX group showed increased protein expression of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2)-associated X protein (Bax) and cytochrome C (Cyt C)(P<0.05, P<0.01), reduced Bcl-2 level (P<0.05, P<0.01), elevated level of cleaved cysteinyl aspartate-specific protease 9 (Caspase-9)/Caspase-9 (P<0.01), and decreased level of phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt)/Akt(P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionDGNT involved multiple targets in the treatment of AA with wind-dampness-heat arthralgia and it may exert its effect in the prevention and treatment by regulating the Akt/Bax/Bcl-2 pathway and promoting the cell apoptosis in the mitochondrial pathway.

Despite advances in immunotherapy for the treatment of cancers,not all patients can benefit from programmed cell death ligand 1(PD-L1)immune checkpoint blockade therapy.Anti-PD-L1 therapeutic effects reportedly correlate with the PD-L1 expression level;hence,accurate detection of PD-L1 expression can guide immunotherapy to achieve better therapeutic effects.Therefore,based on the high affinity antibody Nb109,a new site-specifically radiolabeled tracer,68Ga-NODA-cysteine,aspartic acid,and valine(CDV)-Nb109,was designed and synthesized to accurately monitor PD-L1 expression.The tracer 68Ga-NODA-CDV-Nb109 was obtained using a site-specific conjugation strategy with a radiochemical yield of about 95%and radiochemical purity of 97%.It showed high affinity for PD-L1 with a dissociation constant of 12.34±1.65 nM.Both the cell uptake assay and positron emission tomography(PET)imaging revealed higher tracer uptake in PD-L1-positive A375-hPD-L1 and U87 tumor cells than in PD-L1-negative A375 tumor cells.Meanwhile,dynamic PET imaging of a NC1-H1299 xenograft indicated that doxorubicin could upregulate PD-L1 expression,allowing timely interventional immunotherapy.In conclusion,this tracer could sensitively and dynamically monitor changes in PD-L1 expression levels in different cancers and help screen patients who can benefit from anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the animal model of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) induced by inactivated Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) from inflammation, apoptosis and autophagy, compare the rat RA model of wind-damp-heat arthralgia (FSR) induced by Mtb with the rat RA model of adjuvant arthritis (AA), and provide experimental evidence for improving the disease-syndrome combined model and developing drugs for the prevention and treatment of RA. MethodThirty 6-week-old SD rats were randomly assigned into 3 groups: a normal group, an AA group and a FSR group, with 10 rats in each group. The RA rat model was established by injection of Mtb suspension (1 mg/rat), and the rats in the normal group were injected with the same volume of normal saline. The invention in the FSR group lasted for 16 days. The general conditions, body weight, spleen index, swelling of ankle joints, arthritis index (AI), and the symptoms of arthritis in the hind feet of the rats in each group were observed and measured. The expression levels of serum interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expressions of IL-1β, TNF-α, apoptosis-related protein B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax), autophagy-related protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3), autophagy key molecule yeast Atg6 (Beclin1),and p62 mRNA expression levels were detected by Real-time polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). The protein expression levels of Bcl-2, Bax, LC3, Beclin1 and p62 were detected by Western blot. ResultCompared with those of the normal group, the rats of AA and FSR groups grew slowly and presented dull hair, soft or loose stool, slow movement, swelling of spleen, redness and swelling of ankle joints, increased AI, and histopathologic changes in the synovium and ankle joints. Moreover, the modeling elevated the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in the serum, up-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in the synovium, up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of Bcl2, LC3, Beclin1, and down-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of Bax and p62. Compared with the AA group, the FSR group showed severe symptoms, slowly increased body weight (P<0.01), early appearance of obvious redness and swelling of ankle joints, increased AI (P<0.05), increased spleen index (P<0.05), and obvious pathologic changes of synovial tissue and ankle joints, the inflammatory infiltration in the synovial tissue, and the damage of joint structure. Moreover, the FSR group had higher expression levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, Bcl-2, LC3, and Beclin1 (P<0.05) and lower expression levels of Bax and p62 than the AA group (P<0.05). ConclusionThe animal model of RA (syndrome of wind-damp-heat arthralgia) can be induced successfully with the symptoms consistent with clinical manifestations of RA. The FSR group has lower apoptosis level and higher autophagy level than the AA group, which indicates that the FSR group is more appropriate for the research on the RA with the syndrome of wind-damp-heat arthralgia.
