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 re-evaluate the systematic evaluation of effectiveness of preoperative exercise intervention in patients with lung cancer.Methods Literature in systematic reviews and meta-analyses of the effectiveness of preoperative exercise intervention among patients with lung cancer was retrieved from databases of PubMed,EMbase,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,CINAHL,Joanna Briggs Institute of Australia's Centre for Evidence-based Health Care Database(JBI),China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Data,VIP,and SinoMed from the inception to January 10,2024.Two reviewers independently screened the retrieved literature,extracted data,evaluated methodological quality,and summarised and graded the evidence.Results Eight systematic reviews were included.Methodological quality was rated moderate for one review,low for four,and very low for three.Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and Meta-analyses was found comprehensive in three reviews,incomplete in four and seriously deficient in one.Seven outcome categories comprising 56 indicators were summarised and graded:nine indicators were of moderate certainty,29 of low certainty,and 18 of very low certainty.Pooled evidence from re-meta-analysis showed that preoperative exercises improved preoperative cardiopulmonary function,reduced the risk of post-operative pulmonary complications(PPCs),and shortened a hospital stay.Conclusion Preoperative exercise can improve patient outcomes after surgery.However,current studies often face methodological limitations,inadequate reporting standards and low-quality evidence.Future research should employ more rigorous designs and higher-quality evidence,including comparisons of different exercise modalities and durations,and provide a basis for developing efficient and optimally timed pre-operative exercise protocols.

BACKGROUND: A polygenic risk score (PRS) derived from 112 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for gastric cancer has been reported in Chinese populations (PRS-112). However, its performance in other populations is unknown. A functional PRS (fPRS) using functional SNPs (fSNPs) may improve the generalizability of the PRS across populations with distinct ethnicities. METHODS: We performed functional annotations on SNPs in strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) with the 112 previously reported SNPs to identify fSNPs that affect protein-coding or transcriptional regulation. Subsequently, we constructed an fPRS based on the fSNPs by using the LDpred2-infinitesimal model and then analyzed the performance of the PRS-112 and fPRS in the risk prediction of gastric cancer in 457,521 European participants of the UK Biobank cohort. Finally, the performance of the fPRS in combination with lifestyle factors were evaluated in predicting the risk of gastric cancer. RESULTS: During 4,582,045 person-years of follow-up with a total of 623 incident gastric cancer cases, we found no significant association between the PRS-112 and gastric cancer risk in the European population (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.00 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.93-1.09], P = 0.846). We identified 125 fSNPs, including seven deleterious protein-coding SNPs and 118 regulatory non-coding SNPs, and used them to construct the fPRS-125. Our result showed that the fPRS-125 was significantly associated with gastric cancer risk (HR = 1.11 [95% CI, 1.03-1.20], P = 0.009). Compared to participants with a low fPRS-125 (bottom quintile), those with a high fPRS-125 (top quintile) had a higher risk of incident gastric cancer (HR = 1.43 [95% CI, 1.12-1.84], P = 0.005). Moreover, we observed that participants with both an unfavorable lifestyle and a high genetic risk had the highest risk of incident gastric cancer (HR = 4.99 [95% CI, 1.55-16.10], P = 0.007) compared to those with both a favorable lifestyle and a low genetic risk. CONCLUSION These results indicate that the fPRS-125 derived from fSNPs may act as an indicator to measure the genetic risk of gastric cancer in the European population.
