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.

Clinical data of two patients with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) initially presenting as Addison′s disease were collected from the Department of Endocrinology, First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital. Relevant medical history, clinical features, laboratory tests, and genetic results were analyzed. The two male patients, aged 7 years (case 1) and 15 years (case 2), initially presented with generalized skin hyperpigmentation, without any family history of similar disorders. Both had normal growth and development, and adrenal CT and brain MRI revealed no significant abnormalities. Elevated very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) levels were detected. Genetic analyses identified a maternally inherited missense mutation (c.830G>A, p.Gly277Glu) in the ATP-binding cassette subfamily D member 1 (ABCD1) gene in case 1, and a missense mutation (c.1499G>T, p.Gly500Val) in case 2. Protein structural predictions indicated both mutations as potentially damaging or damaging, and both were classified as likely pathogenic according to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) criteria (PM1/PM2/PP3_Moderate and PM2/PP3_Moderate/PM6, respectively), supporting their correlation with the clinical phenotype. Clinicians should maintain vigilance for X-ALD in male patients presenting with Addison′s disease, and combined VLCFA and genetic testing can effectively prevent misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE T o explore the values of body temperature,white blood cells(WBC),neutrophils(NEUT),platelets(PLT),red blood cell distribution width(RDW),procalcitonin(PCT)and C-reactive procal-citonin(PCT)in early diagnosis of postoperative nosocomial infections in the intensive care unit(ICU)patients undergoing surgical procedures.METHODS The clinical data that were collected from the surgery patients who were hospitalized in ICU of Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from Mar.2021 to May 2022 were retro-spectively analyzed,and the enrolled patients were divided into the infection group with 45 cases and the non-infection group with 130 case according to the status of nosocomial infections.The highest body temperature and the levels of WBC,NEUT,PLT,RDW,PCT and CRP were observed and compared between the infection group within 48 hours before diagnosis with nosocomial infections and the non-infection group after ICU stay for 48 hours.The values of the single and joint detection of the indexes in prediction of postoperative nosocomial infec-tions in the ICU patients were analyzed.RESULTS The body temperature,WBC,NEUT,RDW,PCT and CRP of the infection group were 38.30(37.80,38.80)℃,14.10(10.90,17.30)× 109/L,12.22(9.32,15.12)×109/L,14.10(12.70,15.50)％,1.20(0.10,2.30)ng/ml and 55.00(40.00,70.00)mg/L,respectively,high er than those of the non-infection group(P＜0.05).CRP,body temperature,PCT,NEUT and WBC showed remarkable diag-nostic effects;the area under the curves(AUCs)of the above indexes were 0.968,0.952,0.939,0.896 and 0.886,respectively.The sensitivity of the joint detection of PCT and CRP was 0.978,with the specificity 0.985 and AUC 0.980;the sensitivity of the joint detection of body temperature,PCT and CRP was 0.978,with the specificity 0.992,AUC 0.991.CONCLUSIONS The ICU patients with postoperative nosocomial infections show high levels of body temperature,WBC,NEUT,PCT and CRP.The body temperature,PCT and CRP have high sensitivity and specificity,showing certain values in prediction of postoperative nosocomial infection in the ICU pa-tients;the joint detection of the indexes has higher diagnostic efficiency.

Objective:To compare the effects of 5 prone ventilation positions in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) with network Meta-analysis.Methods:The randomized controlled trials on various prone ventilation positions in patients with ARDS were retrieved from Cochrane Library, EMbase, CINAHL, PubMed, Web of Science, SinoMed, CNKI, Chinese Medical Association Guideline Database, Wanfang Data, China Biology Medicine disc, VIP Information and Chinese Clinical Trial Registry from their inception to December 31, 2023. Literature screening, quality assessment and data extraction were done following the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Network Meta-analysis of outcome indicators was done using Stata 18.0.Results:A total of 19 articles, covering 1 284 patients and 5 prone ventilation positions (0°, 10°, 30°, 25° and 45°) were included. Cochrane risk assessment results showed that 15 articles were grade B and 4 articles were grade C. In direct comparisons, heterogeneity was acceptable ( I2≤50% and P≥0.1). In network analysis, the global and local consistency test result showed good consistency ( P>0.05). Network Meta-analysis result showed that the incidences of pressure injury in patients with 10°, 25°, 30° and 45° prone ventilation were significantly lower than that in patients with 0° prone ventilation, the incidence of pressure injury in patients with 25° prone ventilation was significantly lower than that in patients with 10° prone ventilation, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05); the oxygenation index in patients with 25° prone ventilation was significantly better than that in patients with 0°, 30° and 45° prone ventilation, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The 25° prone ventilation can both effectively improve oxygenation and maximally reduce the incidence of pressure injury in patients with ARDS.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of continuous improvement projects based on FOCUS-PDCA on the pathogen sample submission rate before antimicrobial therapy for inpatients.Methods FOCUS-PDCA was used to improve the pathogen sample submission rate in Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from Jun.to Jul.2023.The inpatients from Jan.to May 2023(before improvement)were enrolled as control group,and the inpatients from Aug.to Dec.2023(after improvement)were enrolled as improvement group.The utilization rate of antibiotics,the submission rate of pathogen samples,the submission rate of clinical microbial samples and the detection rate of multidrug-resistant organisms were compared between the 2 groups.Results The utilization rate of therapeutic antimicrobial agents(32.18％vs 32.93％,P=0.003)and antimicrobial consumption intensity(39.99 defined daily dose[DDD]/100 patient-days vs 44.19 DDD/100 patient-days)in the improvement group were significantly lower than those in the control group.The pathogen sample submission rates before antimicrobial therapy and key antimicrobial combination therapy in the improvement group were significantly higher than those in the control group(52.01％vs 23.64％,87.74％vs 77.71％;both P＜0.001).The qualified rate of microbial specimens in the improvement group was significantly higher than that in the control group(88.77％vs 80.11％,P＜0.001).The detection rates of multidrug-resistant organisms and carbapenem-resistant Klebella pneumoniae in the improvement group were significantly lower than those in the control group(40.45％vs 48.42％,29.65％vs 43.17％;both P＜0.001).Conclusion The continuous improvement projects based on FOCUS-PDCA can improve the pathogen sample submission rate,reduce the detection rate of multidrug-resistant organisms,and promote standardized hospital infection quality management.

Objective To develop a gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(GC-MS/MS)method for the simultaneous determination of ephedrine and pseudoephedrine in urine.Methods Urine samples containing ephedrine and pseudoephedrine components were extracted with ethyl acetate,centrifuged to collect the supernatant and evaporated to dryness under a nitrogen stream and then derivatized with heptafluorobutyric anhydride 60 μL at 70 ℃ for 30 min,and re-evaporated under nitrogen,and then solubilized with 50 μL of methanol,and then analyzed by GC-MS/MS.Results The method demonstraed excellent linearity for ephedrine(0.05～10 μg/mL,r=0.999 8)and pseudoephedrine(0.02～5 μg/mL,r=0.999 5).Extraction recoveries ranged from 89.4％～95.8％(ephedrine)and 90.3％～93.8％(pseudoephedrine).Limits of detection and quantification of ephedrine and pseudoephedrine were 0.005 μg/mL and 0.01 μg/mL,the intra-day precision and accuracy were less than 5.87％and 9.56％,respectively,and the inter-day precision and accuracy were less than 7.54％and 9.27％,respectively.The stability of ephedrine and pseudoephedrine in urine in 15 d was good under the conditions of room temperature and-20 ℃.Conclusion The GC-MS/MS analytical method for the analysis of ephedrine and pseudoephedrine components in urine established in this study is accurate,stable and sensitive,which can provide data technical support for the forensic toxicological analysis of amphetamine-type drugs or new psychoactive substances in the cathinone group.

Objective:To investigate the effects of RNA binding protein 15(RBM15)on the malignant biological behaviors of cervical cancer cells by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway through ATPase family AAA-domain containing 3A(ATAD3A).Methods:TCGA database was used to analyze the expression level of RBM15 mRNA in cervical cancer tissues and its relationship with patient prognosis.32 samples of cervical cancer tissues and adjacent para-cancerous tissues surgically removed in Ganzhou People's Hospital between January and October 2024,as well as cervical cancer cells HeLa,MS-751,C-33A,and SiHa,were collected.The expression levels of RBM15 in cervical cancer tissues and cells were detected by immunohistochemistry and WB assay.m6A modification sites in ATAD3A mRNA were screened by the SRAMP online database.The interaction between RBM15 and ATAD3A mRNA were identified by RNA immunoprecipitation assay,RNA decay assay,and salvage assay.Knockdown or overexpression of RBM15 and ATAD3A in cervical cancer HeLa and SiHa cells were conducted by RNA interference and viral infection.The expressions of mRNA and protein were detected by qPCR and WB methods,while the proliferation,migration,and invasion abilities of cells in each group were assessed by CCK-8 method,scratch assay,and Transwell assay.Results:The positivity rates of RBM15 mRNA and protein in cervical cancer tissues were significantly higher than those in adjacent para-cancerous tissues(both P<0.001).The protein expression levels of RBM15 in cervical cancer cell lines HeLa,MS-751,C-33A,and SiHa were significantly higher than those in normal cervical cell lines Ect1/E6E7(all P<0.001).The 5-year progression free survival rate of the RBM15 mRNA high expression group was lower than that of the low expression group(P<0.001).Compared with that in adjacent para-cancerous tissues,the expression level of ATAD3A was significantly upregulated in cervical cancer tissues(P<0.001).RBM15 mRNA was positively correlated with ATAD3A mRNA(r=0.601,P<0.05).There were highly reliable m6A modification sites at position 501,5 312,12 137 in ATAD3A mRNA.Overexpression of RBM15 in HeLa and SiHa cells led to an increase in ATAD3A mRNA and protein expressions,while knockdown of RBM15 resulted in a decrease in ATAD3A mRNA and protein expression(all P<0.001).RNA immunoprecipitation experiment showed that compared with the IgG group,ATAD3A mRNA was significantly enriched in the immunoprecipitation of RBM15 antibody(both P<0.001).MeRIP-qPCR experiment showed that there was significant m6A methylation enrichment at positions ATAD3A mRNA 501,5 312 and 12 137(all P<0.001).RNA decay experiments showed that knocking down RBM15 in HeLa and SiHa cells could reduce the half-life and stability of ATAD3A mRNA(all P<0.001).Knocking down the expression of RBM15 in HeLa and SiHa cells could significantly inhibit the proliferation,migration,and invasion of cancer cells and significantly reduce the expressions of Wnt/β-catenin pathway related proteins Wnt3,β-catenin,and vimentin,while overexpression of ATAD3A could completely reverse the above inhibiting effects(all P<0.001).Conclusion:RBM15 can modify ATAD3A mRNA and regulate the Wnt/β-catenin pathway through m6A,and thus promote the proliferation,migration and invasion of cervical cancer cells.
