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.

Objective:This study aims to explore the application value of the "liftoff" modular method in robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery for complex adrenal tumors.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 15 patients with complex adrenal tumors treated at the General Hospital of Southern Theater Command from May 2022 to June 2023. The cohort comprised 5 males and 10 females with an average age of (47.6±7.8) years and a body mass index (BMI) of 26.5 (23.8-27.9) kg/m 2. Among the patients, 3 had a BMI ≥28 kg/m 2, 2 had diabetes, 6 had hypertension, and 1 had coronary heart disease. Preoperative endocrine hormone examination revealed abnormal blood catecholamines in 5 cases and abnormal blood cortisol in 2 cases. Ultrasound and CT scans indicated that 9 tumors were located on the left side and 6 on the right, with 4 cases showing tumor compression on adjacent large blood vessels or organs. The average tumor diameter was (7.61±2.79) cm, with 10 cases having a diameter ≥ 6 cm. All patients underwent laparoscopic adrenalectomy assisted by robots through the transperitoneal approach. The surgeries were performed in a lateral position under general anesthesia. The "liftoff" modular method was utilized to separate the treatment of adrenal tumors into lateral, medial, dorsal, cephalic, and adrenal renal plane sides. Tumors were appropriately manipulated during the operations to achieve a "liftoff" shape. Different modular dissociation steps were adopted based on the size and location of the left and right adrenal tumors. The left adrenal gland was dissected in the order of medial and dorsal, adrenal renal plane side, and lateral and cephalic sides, while the right adrenal gland was dissected in the order of lateral and dorsal, adrenal renal plane side, and medial and cephalic sides. Postoperative related indicators and follow-up status of patients were recorded and analyzed. Results:All 15 surgeries were successfully completed without any conversions to open adrenalectomy, with an average operation time of 118 (102-130) minutes and an average intraoperative blood loss of 102 (69-163) ml. The postoperative drainage time was 4 (3-5) days, and the postoperative hospital stay was 6 (4-7) days. The postoperative pathological diagnoses included 5 cases of pheochromocytoma, 3 cases of macronodular adrenal hyperplasia, 6 cases of adrenocortical adenoma, and 1 case of myelolipoma. Follow-up for 6-12 months after surgery showed good recovery and no recurrence.Conclusions:The application of the "liftoff" modular method in robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery for complex adrenal tumors is safe and feasible. It efficiently aids in tumor removal and holds significant clinical application value.

Objective:To investigate the impact of daily step count on glycemic outcomes in community residents with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).Methods:This was a prospective cohort study, in October 2018, 204 residents who met the criteria of IGT were recruited in the Shijingshan District in Beijing. The subjects were tested for fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance test 2-hour blood glucose (2hBG), glycated hemoglobin A 1c (HbA 1c), lipid profile, liver and kidney function, as well as measurements of height, weight and waist circumference. A dedicated mobile application was used to deliver prediabetes health knowledge monthly. Online guidance was provided to answer questions and daily step count was collected using the application. Three years later, a follow-up was conducted to assess the participants′ glycemic outcomes and other indexes, and a total of 142 participants completed the follow-up review. According to daily step count, the subjects were categorized into high step count group (42 cases,>7 000 steps daily), moderate step count group (54 cases, 5 000-7 000 steps daily), and low step count group (46 cases,<5 000 steps daily). Subjects were categorized into diabetes group (30 cases), prediabetes group (77 cases) and normal glucose tolerance group (35 cases) with glycemic outcomes. Independent sample t test was used to compare the differences in blood glucose, blood lipids, and step counts between the two groups. Kruskal-Wallis H test or one-way ANOVA was used to compare the differences in blood glucose, blood lipids, and step counts between multiple groups. The χ2 test was used to compare the differences in glycemic outcomes between multiple groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the impact of daily step counts and body mass index on glycemic outcomes. Linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between daily step counts and 2 h BG. Results:A total of 142 participants completed the 3-year follow-up, including 43 males and 99 females, with a mean age of (60.15±5.67) years. At baseline, males had significantly higher body mass index, waist circumference, and fasting blood glucose when compared to those in females [(26.97±2.43) vs (24.89±2.93) kg/m 2, (92.68±7.75) vs (83.83±8.60) cm, (5.83±0.61) vs (5.62±0.52) mmol/L], the total cholesterol and HDL-C were also significantly lower in males than those in females [(5.10±1.16) vs (5.55±0.95) mmol/L, (1.35±0.34) vs (1.56±0.35) mmol/L] (all P<0.05). After 3-year follow-up, 21.1% (30/142) of IGT participants progressed to diabetes, with an annual conversion rate of approximately 7%. The normal glucose tolerance group showed significantly higher daily step counts when compared with the prediabetes and diabetes groups [(7 886±2 867) vs (5 981±2 655) vs (4 117±2 674) steps] ( H=31.778, P<0.001). Individuals with higher daily step counts exhibited lower body mass index, 2 h BG, and HbA 1c level when compared with those in the ones with moderate and low step counts [(24.26±3.09) vs (25.44±3.38) vs (26.26±3.59) kg/m 2, (7.50±1.71) vs (9.15±3.30) vs (11.19±3.84) mmol/L, 5.97%±0.46% vs 6.14%±0.99% vs 6.40%±0.96%] (all P<0.05). Higher step count was positively correlated with the reversal of prediabetes to normal blood glucose levels (moderate step count, OR=0.297, 95% CI: 0.109-0.804; low step count, OR=0.055, 95% CI: 0.010-0.287), lower daily step count correlated positively with prediabetes progressing to diabetes ( OR=4.857, 95% CI: 1.140-20.689) (all P<0.05). For every additional 1 000 steps per day, the 2 h BG decreased by 0.5 mmol/L. Conclusion:As daily step count increases, the glucose metabolism improves in IGT community residents. Higher daily step count is associated with reversal of IGT to normal glucose tolerance, while lower daily step count may be associated with the progression of IGT to diabetes.

Depression's high recurrence rate and severe consequences pose significant challenges to public health.To address this issue effectively,this review explores the innovative application of wearable devices in monitoring and intervening in depression,surpassing the limitations of traditional subjective assessments and patient self-reports.The paper systematically analyzes recent studies utilizing wearable devices to monitor physiological and behavioral indicators of depression,categorizing them by different technological types and evaluating their practical effectiveness in early diagnosis and intervention.The findings indicate that wearable devices can continuously monitor physiological indicators and behavioral patterns related to depression,potentially enabling early detection of depressive episodes and supporting timely interventions.Despite challenges such as data privacy and user acceptance,wearable technology holds immense potential in enhancing clinical outcomes in depression treatment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with constraint-induced weight training (CIWT) on Pusher syndrome after stroke. MethodsA total of 60 stroke inpatients with Pusher syndrome in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January to December, 2021 were randomly divided into tDCS group, CIWT group and combination group, with 20 cases in each group. The three groups accepted routine rehabilitation training, the tDCS group received anode tDCS, the CIWT group received CIWT of the affected lower limb, and the combination group received CIWT of the affected lower limb and tDCS, for eight weeks. They were assessed with Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Lower Extremities (FMA-LE), Burke Lateropulsion Scale (BLS) and Holden Walking Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) before and after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment, the scores of BBS, FMA-LE, BLS and FAC improved (|t| > 1.452, P < 0.05) in all the groups, and improved the most in the combination group (|F| > 1.827, P < 0.05). ConclusiontDCS combined with CIWT of the affected lower extremity can effectively improve the function of stroke patients with Pusher syndrome.

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.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the treatment of pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP).Methods:In this descriptive case series study, we retrospective analyzed the records of PMP patients treated with CRS and HIPEC between January 2013 and June 2023 at Affiliated Cancer Hospital and Institute of Guangzhou Medical University. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) Aged 18 to 75 years and nonpregnant women. (2) Histologically confirmed diagnosis of pseudomyxoma peritonei. (3) Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS)>70. (4) The functions of major organs such as the heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys can tolerate major surgery for long periods of time. (5) No evidence of extra-abdominal metastasis. Patients with extensive intra-abdominal adhesions or severe infectious diseases were excluded. The main outcomes were overall survival (OS) and postoperative major complications. The postoperative major complications were graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 5.0). We used the peritoneal cancer index (PCI) score to quantitatively assess the peritoneal metastases and the completeness of cytoreduction (CCR) score at the end of surgery (CCR-0 and CCR-1 considered to be complete CRS).Results:A total of the 186 PMP patients with a median age of 56 (interquartile range extremes (IQRE), 48-64) years were included, 65 (34.9%) males and 121 (65.1%) females. The median peritoneal cancer index (PCI) score was 28 (20-34). Appendiceal origin accounted for 91.4%. Histological types were low grade in 99 patients (53.2%), high grade in 57 patients (30.6%), and 55 patients (29.6%) received complete cytoreduction (CCR-0/1). The median operative duration was 300 (211-430) minutes for all patients. Treatment-related 30-day mortality was 2.7%; 90-day mortality 4.3%; reoperation 1.6%; and severe morbidity 43.0%. Within the entire series, anemia(27.4%), electrolyte disturbance(11.6%), and hypoalbuminemia(7.5%) were the most frequent major complications (grade 3-4). The incidences of gastrointestinal anastomotic leakage, abdominal bleeding, and abdominal infection were 2.2%, 2.2%, and 4.3%, respectively. After a median follow-up of 38.1 (95%CI:31.2-45.1) months, the 5-year OS was 50.3% (95%CI: 40.7%-59.9%) with a median survival time of 66.1 (95%CI: 43.1-89.1) months. The survival analysis showed that patients with pathological low grade, low PCI, and low CCR score had better survival with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). Further stratified into complete and incomplete CRS subgroups, the 5-year OS of the CCR-0 and CCR-1 subgroups was 88.9% (95%CI: 68.3%-100.0%) and 77.6% (95%CI: 62.7%-92.5%), respectively; and 42.0% (95%CI: 29.5%-54.5%) in the CCR-2/3 subgroup. Conclusions:CRS and HIPEC may result in a long-term survival benefit for PMP patients with acceptable perioperative morbidity and mortality. This strategy, when complete CRS is possible, could significantly prolong survival for strictly selected patients at experienced centers.
