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 observe the effects of RasGRP4 gene deletion on the structure and function of the retina in diabetic mice, and to explore the mechanism of RasGRP4 in diabetic retinopathy (DR) by transcriptome sequencing in conjunction with bioinformatics analysis. Methods:A total of 12 male C57BL/6J mice were divided into normal group, diabetic group (DM group), with 6 mice in each group. Six male RasGRP4 knockout mice were uesd as RasGRP4 knockout diabetic group (DM-KO group). Mice in the DM group and DM-KO group were fed with high-fat diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin to establish diabetic model and body weight and blood glucose were monitored regularly. Three months after modeling, optical coherence tomography was used to detect the retinal thickness and ganglion cell layer thickness. Electroretinography was used to detect the function of the retina in mice under dark-adapted conditions. Total RNA was extracted from the retinas of mice in DM group and DM-KO group, and transcriptomic sequencing was performed to screen differentially expressed genes (DEG). Core genes were screened using MCODE and Cytohubba plug-ins of Cytoscape v3.8.2 software. At the same time, the functional enrichment analysis of gene samples (GO) of the selected DEG was performed. The mRNA relative expression levels of interleukin-8, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), NOd-like receptor thermal protein domain protein 3 (NLRP3), Caspase-1 and IL-1β in each group were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. t test was used to compare the two groups. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the three groups. Results:Compared with the DM group, there was no significant difference in blood glucose and body weight in the DM-KO group with the extension of high-fat diet ( t=0.12, 2.02, 0.22, 0.10, 0.59, 0.41, 1.35, 0.31, 1.12, 1.58, 1.47, 1.20, 1.24, 0.39, 0.66, 0.14; P>0.05). The retinal thickness and ganglion cell layer thickness of mice in the three groups were significantly reduced in the DM group compared with the normal group, while DM-KO was significantly increased compared with the DM group, and the differences were statistically significant ( F=30.43, 7.81; P<0.000 1, 0.01). Comparison of a-wave and b-wave amplitudes among the three groups showed that the DM group was significantly lower than the normal group, while the DM-KO was significantly higher than the DM group, and the differences were statistically significant ( F=16.46, 35.58; P<0.001, 0.000 1). Compared with the DM group, 184 differential genes (DEG) were screened in the DM-KO group, among which 39 up-regulated and 145 down-regulated genes were detected, respectively. The results of the MCODE plug-in analysis showed that Col1a2, Fbln1, Fbn1, Col6a3, Fmod, Ogn, Tgfb, Mfap4, Vcan, Nid2, and Col18a1 were core genes in the DEG. Cytohubba plug-in analysis showed that Col1a2, Mrc1, Cd47, Fbn1, Cybb, Cd163, Fbln1, Fmod, Adgre1, and Col6a3 were the core genes in DEG. The results of the GO functional enrichment analysis showed that DEG was mainly involved in hemoglobin complexes, MHC class Ⅱ protein complex, apical plasma membrane, inflammasome complex, immunological synapse, response to bacterium, inflammatory response, immune system processe, response to hypoxia, and cell adhesion were significantly enriched. Comparison of mRNA relative expression levels of IL-8, TGF-β, IFN-γ, NLRP3, Caspase-1 and IL-1β in the three groups showed that the DM group was significantly higher than the normal group, while the DM-KO was significantly lower than the DM group, with statistical significance ( F=12.43, 15.41, 70.09, 29.04, 11.79, 41.28; P<0.01). Conclusion:RasGRP4 deficiency plays a therapeutic role in the development of DR through inhibition of inflammatory factor secretion and NLRP 3 inflammasome pathway activation.

Objective To investigate the correlation and predictive value of serum ferritin(SF),25(OH)D and early renal damage in children with new type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM).Methods A total of 102 newly diagnosed T1DM children admitted to the Department of Endocrinology,Genetics and Metabolism of our hospital from January 2020 to June 2023 were collected as the study objects.According to UACR,the study subjects were divided into T1DM group<30 mg/g(n=50),microalbuminuria group 30～300 mg/g(MUAlb)group(n=32),and macroalbuminuria group>300 mg/g(CUAlb)group(n=20).Another 65 healthy children who underwent physical examination during the same period were selected as normal control(NC)group.General data and biochemical indexes of all groups were compared to analyze the correlation and predictive value of changes in SF and 25(OH)D levels with early renal damage.Results The levels of SF and TG in NC,T1DM,MUAlb and CUAlb groups increased in turn(P<0.05),while 25(OH)D decreased in turn(P<0.05).The levels of TC,FC-P,FPG and HbA1c in the T1DM,MUAlb and CUAlb groups were higher than those in the NC group(P<0.05),and the levels of FIns was lower than that in the NC group(P<0.05).The level of LDL-C in MUAlb and CUAlb groups were higher than in NC group(P<0.05),the levels of TC,FPG and HbA1c in MUAlb and CUAlb groups were higher than those in T1DM group(P<0.05),and UACR was higher than that in NC and T1DM groups(P<0.05).LDL-C in MUAlb group was higher than that in T1DM group(P<0.05).Blood urea in the CUAlb group were higher than those in the NC group(P<0.05),Scr and UACR was higher than that in the MUA1b group(P<0.05),and eGFR was higher than that in the T1DM,MUAlb,and CUAlb groups(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that SF were positively correlated with TC,LDL-C,TG,UACR and HbA1c(P<0.05)and negatively correlated with 25(OH)D(P<0.05).25(OH)D was negatively correlated with TC,LDL-C,TG,UACR,HbA1c(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that SF and 25(OH)D were the influencing factors of early renal injury in children with T1DM.ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of SF and 25(OH)D was 0.813 and 0.808,with the sensitivity 67.3%and 78.8%,the specificity 80.0%and 72.0%,and the cut-off values were 113.6 ng/ml and 54.17 nmol/L,respectively.Conclusions The changes in serum SF and 25(OH)D levels are associated with different stages of early renal damage and may be involved in the occurrence and development of early renal damage in children with T1DM.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of a domestically developed robotic surgical system based on fiber-optic dedicated line communication in cross-regional urological telesurgery.Methods:This was multicenter，single-arm，retrospective case series study. The data of patients who underwent urological telesurgeries using the telesurgical system between January 2023 and December 2024 were analyzed. The cohort included 59 patients from seven hospitals across China. Among the patients，47 were male（79.7%）and 12 were female（20.3%），with a median age of 63.0（56.0，68.0）years and a body mass index of（24.7 ± 3.0）kg/m 2. Surgical procedures included 32 radical prostatectomies，24 partial nephrectomies，one radical nephrectomy，one adrenalectomy，and one ureteral reconstruction. The perioperative indicators，pathological results and postoperative complications were analyzed. The network monitoring data were collected，and the perioperative data of patients，remote system monitoring data and costs were compared between the two communication modes of optical transport network（OTN）and cloud-connect network（CCN）. Results:All 59 remote surgeries were successfully completed，with a mean operative time of（138.0 ± 54.0）minutes，median intraoperative blood loss of 50.0（30.0，100.0）ml and a postoperative hospital stay of 5.0（4.0，6.0）days. No cases required reoperation，Clavien-Dindo grade ≥3 complications，or readmission. The geographical distance between the primary and remote surgical sites ranged from 450 to 2 800 km. Network monitoring revealed increased bidirectional latency with distance increasing：the shortest latency time（Hefei-Hangzhou，450 km）was（16.59 ± 0.80）ms，while the longest（Harbin-Hangzhou，2 200 km）latency time was（53.31 ± 0.31）ms. Average frame loss per procedure was 0?1.27 frames. The results of subgroup analysis comparing OTN and CCN communication modes showed no significant differences in operative time［（130.7 ± 70.5）minutes vs.（142.1 ± 42.9）minutes， P = 0.442］，postoperative hospitalization［6.0（4.0，8.0）d vs. 5.0（4.0，6.0）d， P = 0.581］，or readmission rates（0 vs. 0）. However，CCN demonstrated significant cost advantages with 500 RMB per operation vs. 3 000 RMB per operation for OTN. Conclusions:Urological telesurgery using fiber-optic communication is feasible. The CCN mode，with its cost-effectiveness，excellent usability，and multi-point interconnection flexibility，is currently the preferred communication model for telesurgical applications.

BACKGROUND:Clinical studies have shown that aerobic exercise is an important supplement to the clinical treatment of patients with pulmonary hypertension,which can alleviate the disease condition,increase exercise tolerance and improve the quality of life.However,it is not clear whether patients at different stages of pulmonary hypertension can benefit equally from exercise training. OBJECTIVE:To compare the intervention effects of early or late aerobic training on right heart failure in rats with pulmonary hypertension and explore its possible mechanism. METHODS:Sixty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group,model sedentary group,model early exercise group and model late exercise group,with 15 rats in each group.The model of pulmonary hypertension was established by intraperitoneal injection of monocrotaline(60 mg/kg)in the latter three groups.The model early exercise group was given 8 weeks of treadmill aerobic exercise(60%maximum running speed,60 minutes per day,5 days a week)after modeling,while the model late exercise group was trained for 6 weeks after 2 weeks of modeling.The control and model sedentary groups were fed quietly in the rat cage for 8 weeks.After training,the exercise performance,right ventricular hemodynamics,cardiopulmonary function,cardiopulmonary histopathology,reactive oxygen species level in mitochondria,activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex and expressions of myocardial tissue proteins were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the model sedentary group,exercise performance and right ventricular function improved(P<0.05),myocardial collagen content,endothelin-1,tumor necrosis factor-α/interleukin-10 ratio and β-myosin heavy chain/α-myosin heavy chain ratio decreased(P<0.05),vascular endothelial growth factor and sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-adenosine triphosphate enzyme expression increased(P<0.05),immunofluorescence intensity of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and the protein expression of 3-nitrotyrosine decreased(P<0.05),the activities of complex I,II,IV and V increased in the model early exercise and model late exercise groups(P<0.05),but there were no significant changes in right ventricular maximum pressure,pulmonary acceleration time and pulmonary artery wall area/total vascular area ratio(P>0.05).Compared with the model late exercise group,the model early exercise group further improved exercise performance and right ventricular function,and downregulated collagen content,brain natriuretic peptide protein expression,tumor necrosis factor-α/interleukin-10 ratio and β-myosin heavy chain/α-myosin heavy chain ratio(P<0.05).To conclude,although pulmonary vascular remodeling and right ventricular overload persist in rats with pulmonary hypertension,exercise training at different stages of the disease has a cardioprotective effect.The mechanism is related to the improvement of cardiac remodeling,neurohormone system imbalance,inflammatory response and mitochondrial oxidative stress.Greater benefit is gained from initiating exercise in the early stage of the disease.
