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 efficacy of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) combined with drug treatment in patients with bipolar Ⅰ disorder (BD Ⅰ).Methods:Forty-two patients with BD Ⅰ who were admitted to the Mental Health Center Affiliated to Anhui Medical University from March 2022 to June 2023 were included in this randomized double-blind study. These patients were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group using an Excel spreadsheet. In the control group, patients received 10 sessions of sham stimulation in addition to drug treatment, while the observation group received 10 sessions of tACS along with drug treatment. All patients were treated for 2 weeks. Each patient received stimulation for 15 minutes on each of the right and left prefrontal lobes once every working day. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores and Bech-Rafaelsen Mania Scale (BRMS) scores were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Eighteen patients from the observation group and nineteen patients from the control group were included in the final analysis.Results:Two weeks after treatment, the MoCA score in the observation group was higher than that in the control group [(27.39 ± 1.88) vs. (24.63 ± 2.39)], and the BRMS score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group [(15.89 ± 3.18) vs. (19.00 ± 3.32)]. These differences were statistically significant ( t = -3.89, 2.91, both P < 0.05). After treatment, the MoCA score in the observation group increased, while the BRMS score decreased ( t = 5.04, -4.14, both P < 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis indicated the change in MoCA score was negatively correlated with BRMS score in both groups ( r = -0.433, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Drug treatment combined with tACS greatly improved clinical cognitive symptoms and reduced manic symptoms in patients with BD Ⅰ. The combined therapy exhibited better efficacy than monotherapy.

Objective:To develop a scale to measure the sense of gain of the elderly, and to evaluate its reliability and validity.Methods:According to the content of the sense of gain, combined with the literature research method and interview method, the scale entry pool was established.After the expert consistency evaluation and the optimal test assembly method (OTA) analysis, the formal version of the scale was formed.The stratified sampling method was used to select 1 043 community-dwelling elders for the survey, and the reliability and validity of the scale were evaluated by methods based on classical test theory.Results:The scale of elderly sense of gain, which was screened by OTA method, included four dimensions: health status, relationship and communication, social security, and ideal expectation, with a total of 17 items. The Cronbach's α value of the formal version of the scale was 0. 850, and the Cronbach's α coefficients of the four dimensions were 0.721, 0.772, 0.779, and 0.930, respectively. The CR values of the combined reliabilities of each dimension were all above 0.7. In terms of AVE values, except for the health status dimension was acceptable, the other three dimensions were all above 0.36. The correlation coefficient between the sense of health acquisition and life satisfaction of the elderly was 0.531 ( P<0.01). Conclusion:The developed scale for measuring the sense of gain of the elderly has good reliability and validity, which can be used as an effective tool for measuring the sense of gain of the elderly.

Cardiovascular diseases have become the leading cause of mortality worldwide.The gut microbiota and its metabolites play an important role in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases,and an imbalance of gut microbiota and its metabolites can promote the progression of cardiovascular diseases.Phenylacetylglutamine is a phenyl-alanine metabolite of intestinal flora.More and more studies have shown that phenylacetylglutamine is an independent risk factor of cardiovascular diseases and a potential biomarker of cardiovascular diseases.It is involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases,such as arrhythmia,heart failure,atherosclerosis,etc.Therefore,interventions targeting pheny-lacetylglutamine are expected to become a new strategy for treating cardiovascular diseases.This review focuses on the role of phenylacetylglutamine in the occurrence and development of several common cardiovascular diseases.

Objective:To introduce the clinical application of "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection in laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods:Patients who were confirmed to have adenocarcinoma by preoperative gastroscopy and pathological biopsy, with tumor staging evaluated by imaging as cT1~4aN0~3M0, without neoadjuvant therapy, and without absolute surgical contraindications, underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer with "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection. The "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection was performed in four steps: (1) Expose the posterior gastric mesentery and dissect No.11p lymph nodes; (2) Expose the left gastric mesentery and dissect No.7, No.8a and No.9 lymph nodes; (3) Expose the right gastric mesentery and dissect No.5 lymph nodes; (4) Expose the left edge of the portal vein and dissect No.12a lymph nodes.Results:From April 2018 to October 2024, 112 patients with gastric cancer underwent laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy with "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection, including 21 cases in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, 78 cases in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, and 13 cases in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Jilin Provincial People's Hospital. The TNM staging of all patients was as follows: 31 cases in stage Ⅰ, 24 cases in stage Ⅱ, and 57 cases in stage Ⅲ; 62 cases of differentiated adenocarcinoma and 50 cases of undifferentiated adenocarcinoma; the median length of tumors was 3.8 cm. All patients successfully completed the operation without conversion to open surgery, no intraoperative massive hemorrhage or postoperative death. The median total number of lymph nodes dissected in all patients was 32, and the median number of positive lymph nodes was 4.5. The overall postoperative complication rate was 5.4% (6/112), all of which were Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ, including pulmonary infection, pleural effusion, and incisional infection, all cured by symptomatic treatment. The median follow-up was 41.8 (2-78) months, with 7 cases lost to follow-up. During the follow-up period, 27 cases (25.7%) had tumor recurrence and 16 cases (15.2%) died.Conclusions:The "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection technique is safe and feasible in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Objective:To analyze the preferences of medical staff in TCM hospitals in Beijing regarding the achievements transformation of hospital traditional Chinese medicine preparations,and to provide a reference for formulating incentive policies.Methods:233 medical staff from five TCM hospitals in Beijing were taken as the research objects,and surveyed with a questionnaire designed based on the discrete choice experiment(DCE).Mixed logit models and latent class models were then used to analyze their transformation preferences.Results:The mixed Logit model revealed that seven key attributes significantly influenced medical staff's preferences for the achievements transformation of traditional Chinese medicine preparations(P<0.05).Latent class analysis identified three distinct preference groups among respondents:an organization-dependent group(27.0%),a pro-transformation group(61.4%),and a conservative group(11.6%).Conclusions:Medical Staff preferred transformation conditions that increased monthly income;utilized"human use+re-experimentation";involved the hospital's achievements transformation department as the entity;were funded by the hospital;offered a 70%profit share;enabled promotion three years earlier,and assigned patents to the hospital.The study recommends implementing diverse incentive measures and developing differentiated strategies tailored to the distinct Medical Staff categories to facilitate the transformation of hospital traditional Chinese medicine preparations into new drugs.

Objective:To study the role of cadherin 1 (CDH1) gene DNA methylation in autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) in population from different water-iodine regions.Methods:From May to June 2019, the information of AIT cases and healthy individuals in Shandong Province were collected in three types of water-iodine regions: iodine-fortification (IF) region, iodine-adequate (IA) region and iodine-excess (IE) region. A case-control study design was applied to match 176 AIT cases (case group) with age, gender, body mass index, and place of residence in a 1 ∶ 1 ratio to 176 healthy individuals (control group). Fasting urine and whole blood samples were collected to test the contents of urinary iodine, thyroid function indicators [serum free triiodothyronine (FT 3), free thyroxine (FT 4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)], and serum iodine. The DNA methylation levels of the target region of the CDH1 gene and its four CpG sites in whole blood were determined using methylation sequencing technology for target regions (MethylTarget TM). Results:The DNA methylation level of the target region of CDH1 gene in the case group was 0.832 ± 0.044, and that in the control group was 0.828 ± 0.049, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( t = 0.76, P = 0.448). There was no statistically significant difference in DNA methylation levels of the four CpG sites in the target region of CDH1 gene between the case group and the control group ( P > 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the DNA methylation level of the CDH1 gene target region between the case group and the control group in IF, IA and IE regions ( P > 0.05). The detection results of DNA methylation levels at CpG sites in the target region of CDH1 gene in different water iodine regions showed that the DNA methylation level at site 83 in case group in IF region was higher than that in the control group ( t = 2.30, P = 0.023). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the DNA methylation levels of the four CpG sites between the case group and the control group in IA and IE regions ( P > 0.05). The DNA methylation level of CDH1 gene target region in AIT patients was not significantly correlated with urinary iodine, serum iodine, and serum FT 3, FT 4, and TSH contents ( P > 0.05), but was significantly negatively correlated with age ( r =-0.19, P = 0.014). Conclusions:The DNA methylation level at CpG site 83 of CDH1 gene in AIT patients in IF region is significantly higher than that in control population, indicating that DNA methylation at this locus may be involved in the occurrence and development of AIT after iodine fortification. The DNA methylation level of CDH1 gene is negatively correlated with age.
