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 investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS). METHODS: Clinical data of 10 patients with PTCL-NOS in Gansu Provincial Hospital from May 2016 to June 2023 were collected. The treatment outcomes were evaluated, and the factors affecting prognosis were analyzed. RESULTS: The median age of onset for the 10 patients was 60.7 (47-75) years, with 7 males and 3 females. Nine cases received chemotherapy, while one case died suddenly after diagnosis, and the median course of chemotherapy was 6.9 (1-13) courses. Assessing the efficacy, 3 patients achieved complete remission (CR) while 7 patients showed progression. Age, sex, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, Ki-67 and the presence of hemophagocytic lymphohistocytosis (HLH) were not statistically correlated with CR rate ( P >0.05). Patients with IPI score 3-5, and Ann Arbor stage III-IV had statistically lower CR rates (both P <0.05). Age, B symptoms, LDH level ,hemoglobin, Ki-67 index and PLR value were not statistically correlated with overall survival (OS) time ( P >0.05). Male, platelet <150×10⁹/L, IPI score 3-5, Ann Arbor stage III-IV, presence of HLH, NLR≥4.05, and LMR <2.81 were statistically correlated with shorter OS (all P <0.05). Among the 10 patients, 3 cases have survived and are still in CR status, while 7 cases have died, with a median survival time of 7.5 (1-85) months. CONCLUSIONS Patients with IPI score 3-5 and Ann Arbor stage III-IV have low CR rate and poor prognosis. The OS of patients who are male, with platelet <150×10⁹/L, IPI score 3-5, Ann Arbor stage III-IV, complication of HLH, NLR≥4.05, and LMR <2.81 is short, and prognosis is poor.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Roxadustat and recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) on novel inflammatory immune indices in anemic patients with non-dialysis type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:A retrospective case-control study was performed in this study. Patients with non-dialysis type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with CKD admitted to Shanghai First People's Hospital from December 2015 to December 2023 were selected. Among those patients, 252 cases were treated with rHuEPO (rHuEPO group) and 103 cases were treated with Roxadustat (Roxadustat group). Both group had a course of treatment over three months. The baseline data and novel inflammatory immunity indices, systemic immuno-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were compared between the two groups of patients before and after 3 months of treatment.Results:The differences in gender, age, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, history of hypertension, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and use of hypoglycemic, antihypertensive, and lipid-lowering medications were not statistically significant when compared between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). Before treatment, the differences in NLR, PLR, SII, and LMR between the two groups were not statistically significant (all P>0.05); after 3 months of treatment, NLR, PLR, SII, and LMR were lower in both groups than before treatment [rHuEPO group: (2.3±0.8)% vs. (2.8±0.8)%, (83±33)% vs. (160±49)%, (2.3±0.8)% vs. (3.1±0.7)%, (476±227)% vs. (594±243)%, with t values of 9.25, 23. 20, 26.67, and 9.62, respectively, all P<0.001; Roxadustat group: (1.7±0.6)% versus (2.9±1.0)%, (72±30)% versus (162±47)%, (2.0±0.8)% versus (3.1±0.9)%, (408±151)% versus (605±267)%, with t values of 8. 38, 14.27, 8.62, and 5.97, respectively, all P<0.001], and NLR, PLR, and SII were lower in the Roxadustat group than in the rHuEPO group ( t=5.00, P<0.001, t=2.44, P=0.015, t=2.09, P=0.040). Conclusion:In patients with anemia in non-dialysis type 2 diabetes mellitus associated with CKD,Roxadustat had similar ability of reducing the level of novel inflammatory markers compared to rHuEPO.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH).Methods:Clinical data of 78 patients with HLH admitted to Gansu Provincial People's Hospital from January 2014 to May 2023 were collected,and the correlation between relevant indicators and patient prognosis was analyzed.Results:Among the 78 HLH patients,there were 48 males and 30 females,with a median age of onset of 48(1-84)years old;26 patients were treated with chemotherapy,44 patients were treated with glucocorticoids,immunoglobulin or cyclosporine,5 patients received symptomatic treatment,1 patient received plasma exchange,and 2 patients refused treatment.By the end of the follow-up,there were 39 survivors,35 deaths,and 4 patients lost to follow-up.There was no significant correlation between sex,ferritin,triglycerides,hemophagocytosis,bone marrow cellularity,Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)infection,SUV value of PET-CT,alanine aminotransferase(ALT),interleukin-6(IL-6),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)and overall survival(OS)of the patients(P＞0.05).Patients with age ≥ 60 years,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)＞0.59,red cell distribution width-to-platelet ratio(RPR)＞0.30,lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio(LMR)≤ 2.74,red blood cell distribution width(RDW)＞16.45％,tumor-associated HLH,aspartate aminotransferase(AST)≥ 148 U/L,procalcitonin(PCT)≥ 0.66 ng/ml,neutrophils(NEU)＜2 × 109/L,fibrinogen(FIB)＜1.85 g/L,lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)≥ 1 740 U/L,hemoglobin(Hb)＜85 g/L,platelet(PLT)＜57 × 109/L had significantly shorter OS,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that LMR ≤ 2.74,RDW＞16.45％,LDH ≥ 1 740 U/L,and NEU＜2 × 109/L were independent risk factors affecting OS in HLH patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Some blood-based inflammatory markers are significantly associated with OS in patients with HLH.NLR,RPR,LMR,RDW and PCT can be used to assess the prognosis of HLH patients,and RDW and LMR are independent factors affecting OS of HLH patients,which provide greater predictive value for prognosis.Hypercellular bone marrow in HLH patients may indicate a poor prognosis.

Tacrolimus is the first immunosuppressive choice for organ transplantation.It is also used in the immunotherapy of many non-transplant diseases.Because of its large individual variabilities and narrow treatment window,the individualized administration for tacrolimus taking advantage of population pharmacokinetics is necessary.This article aims to summarize population pharmacokinetics studies of tacrolimus in patients with non-transplant diseases and its influencing factors,and to provide a reference for rational use of tacrolimus.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of brexpiprazole in treating acute schizophrenia.Methods Patients with schizophrenia were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.The treatment group was given brexpiprozole 2-4 mg·d-1 orally and the control group was given aripiprazole 10-20 mg·d-1orally,both were treated for 6 weeks.Clinical efficacy of the two groups,the response rate at endpoint,the changes from baseline to endpoint of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS),Clinical Global Impression-Improvement(CGI-S),Personal and Social Performance scale(PSP),PANSS Positive syndrome subscale,PANSS negative syndrome subscale were compared.The incidence of treatment-related adverse events in two groups were compared.Results There were 184 patients in treatment group and 186 patients in control group.After treatment,the response rates of treatment group and control group were 79.50％(140 cases/184 cases)and 82.40％(150 cases/186 cases),the scores of CGI-I of treatment group and control group were(2.00±1.20)and(1.90±1.01),with no significant difference(all P＞0.05).From baseline to Week 6,the mean change of PANSS total score wese(-30.70±16.96)points in treatment group and(-32.20±17.00)points in control group,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).The changes of CGI-S scores in treatment group and control group were(-2.00±1.27)and(-1.90±1.22)points,PSP scores were(18.80±14.77)and(19.20±14.55)points,PANSS positive syndrome scores were(-10.30±5.93)and(-10.80±5.81)points,PANSS negative syndrome scores were(-6.80±5.98)and(-7.30±5.15)points,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of treatment-related adverse events between the two group(69.00％vs.64.50％,P＞0.05).Conclusion The non-inferiority of Brexpiprazole to aripiprazole was established,with comparable efficacy and acceptability.

Influenza is a contagious respiratory disease caused by influenza viruses, and the burden of severe disease is commonly seen in high risk populations. Influenza vaccination is an effective way to prevent influenza and its complications, especially for high risk populations. Although some countries have included influenza vaccine in their national immunization programs, influenza vaccination rates remain low globally in high risk populations. The influenza vaccine in China is still a non-immunization program vaccine that is voluntarily vaccinated at its own expense, and the influenza vaccine immunization strategy is different across the country. There is still a gap between the vaccination rate of the influenza vaccine and that of developed countries. It is an urgent problem to further optimize the whole population immunization strategy of influenza vaccine in China, strengthen the publicity of the whole population immunization strategy of influenza vaccine, and reduce the disease burden of influenza in China.
