To explore the clinical value of a multimodal predictive model based on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) radiomics combined with deep learning(DL) features for the preoperative noninvasive assessment of mismatch repair-deficient(MMRd) status in endometrial cancer(EC). Patients diagnosed with EC at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2015 to December 2021 were retrospectively enrolled and randomly divided into a training set and a validation set at a ratio of 8∶2. Relevant clinical data were collected, and radiomics features and DL features were extracted from preoperative contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging(CE-T1WI), fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging(fs-T2WI), and diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI) sequences. High-dimensional feature selection and dimensionality reduction were performed sequentially using the recursive feature elimination(RFE) algorithm to generate a radiomics score(Rad-score) and a deep learning score(DL-score), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression was utilized to construct a clinical model, a pure radiomics model, a clinical-radiomics model, and an integrated multimodal model incorporating clinical indicators, Rad-score, and DL-score. Model performance was assessed and compared using area under receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC) and DeLong test. A total of 509 patients were enrolled in this study, comprising 413 in the training cohort and 96 in the validation cohort. Independent predictors: Multivariate analysis indicated that preoperative fasting blood glucose level, histological grade, lymph node metastasis status, Rad-score, and DL-score were all independent significant predictors of MMRd status in EC patients. The integrated multimodal model demonstrated optimal predictive performance with an AUC of 0.699(95% CI: 0.635-0.763) in the training set, which was superior to the clinical model(AUC=0.629, 95% CI: 0.561-0.697) and the pure radiomics model(AUC=0.641, 95% CI: 0.575-0.706). In the validation set, the integrated model maintained good generalizability, achieving an AUC of 0.655(95% CI: 0.535-0.775), and its diagnostic efficacy was higher than that of the clinical model(AUC=0.578, 95% CI: 0.450-0.705) and the pure radiomics model(AUC=0.611, 95% CI: 0.488-0.734). According to the DeLong test, the incorporation of DL features resulted in the clinicalradiomicsdeep learning model performing better than both the clinicalonly model( The initially developed clinical-radiomics-deep learning model exhibits a certain predictive potential for the MMRd status in patients with EC. The inclusion of DL features may help complement the limitations of traditional evaluations, offering a preliminary radiological reference for preoperative non-invasive screening. However, given the current diagnostic performance, its overall accuracy and clinical generalizability warrant further validation in multi-center, large-sample external cohort studies.

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.

China emerges as a major country in nuclear energy development and the application of nuclear and radiologic technology. The diagnosis and treatment of acute radiation syndrom (ARS) caused by external irradiation represent a core function in the country′s medical rescue of nuclear and radiological emergencies. Clinically, ARS manifests hematopoietic, gastrointestinal, cutaneous, and central nervous system syndromes, with specific clinical manifestations, signs, severity, and prognosis strongly correlated with radiation dose. China has established a number of national and provincial centers for treating radiation-induced damage. Nevertheless, most medical staff have limited experience in ARS treatment. This consensus presents a summary of recent experience in treating ARS of China. In combination with recommendations from international organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), this consensus proposes key evidence of critical clinical issues of ARS, covering all links in the rescue of external irradiation-induced ARS. Initially, clinical diagnosis, syndromes, and severe degrees should be determined based on clinical symptoms and dose estimates. It is necessary to normalize clinical treatment measures for hematopoietic recovery, gastrointestinal injury treatment, infection control, symptomatic treatment, and multi-organ function preservation. To this end, this consensus offers cautions. This consensus provides principles of treatment with traditional Chinese medicine, psychological intervention, and follow-up. Additionally, it highlights multidisciplinary collaboration. It is recommended that this consensus be applied in relevant treatment centers.
