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 identify the risk factors for ascending aortic dilatation and develop a prediction model using LASSO-Logistic regression in patients with normally functioning bicuspid aortic valves（BAV）.Methods:Eight-four adult patients with BAV diagnosed as having normal valve function by transthoracic echocardiography who attended to the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University between June 2024 and April 2025 were prospectively selected，there were 42 patients with ascending aortic dilatation and 42 patients without dilatation.The patients were divided into a training set（60 cases）and a test set（24 cases）using stratified random sampling at a ratio of 7 to 3 via the R caret package. All subjects underwent transthoracic echocardiography，lipid and plasma matrix metalloproteinases（MMP）and tissue inhibitors（TIMP）levels detection. The inverse probability of treatment weighting（IPTW）method was employed to control for potential confounding factors. LASSO and multifactorial binary Logistic regression was applied to screen the independent risk factors for ascending aortic dilatation of BAV and development a nomogram prediction model. The accuracy，consistency and clinical applicability of the prediction model were evaluated by applying the ROC curve，calibration curve，and decision curve analysis（DCA），respectively.Results:①After adjustment for IPTW，LASSO-Logistic regression analysis identified left ventricular global longitudinal strain（LVGLS）and plasma MMP-2 levels as independent risk factors for ascending aortic dilatation in BAV patients with normal valve function.②The nomogram prediction model constructed based on the above screening features，and the area under the curve（AUC）of ROC for the training set and test set were 0.917 and 0.903，with specificities of 0.867 and 0.917，and sensitivities of 0.933 and 0.916，respectively. ③Calibration curves demonstrated satisfactory alignment，with C-indices of 0.908（95% CI=0.879～0.937）for the training set and 0.903（95% CI=0.874 - 0.932）for the test set. Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit tests indicated strong consistency between predicted and observed outcomes，with P-values of 0.138 and 0.750 for the training and test sets，respectively.The DCA curve demonstrated that within a threshold probability range of 0.04 - 0.90 in the test set，the clinical decision-making model provided a higher net benefit rate for patients with BAV. Conclusions:LVGLS absolute value reduction and elevated plasma MMP-2 levels are independent risk factors for predicting ascending aortic dilatation in BAV patients with normal valve function. The prediction model based on LASSO-Logistic regression has good predictive value，providing a scientific basis for clinical decision-making in patients with BAV and aortic diseases.

Objective:To establish a prognostic model based on endoplasmic reticulum stress-related genes for evaluating the prognosis of patients with renal cell carcinoma.Methods:This study utilized Non-negative Matrix Factorization to identify molecular subgroups based on endoplasmic reticulum stress-related genes and employed Weighted Correlation Network Analysis to determine co-expressed genes associ-ated with these subgroups.A risk prognostic model was constructed using univariate Cox regression analysis and Lasso regression analysis.Preliminary experimental validations were conducted to elucidate the biological functions of model genes in renal cell carcinoma.Results:Two molecular subgroups with distinct survival prognoses were identified,and an intersection of related genes was used to construct a nov-el endoplasmic reticulum stress-related prognostic model.Patients in the high-risk group exhibited significantly poorer overall survival in both the training and validation cohorts.In vivo experiments demonstrated that PCK1,a model gene,could inhibit the proliferation,migra-tion,and invasion of renal cell carcinoma cells.Conclusions:The risk scoring model developed in this study effectively predicts the survival probability of renal cell carcinoma patients and can serve as an independent prognostic indicator.This model offers a new direction for per-sonalized treatment strategies in renal cell carcinoma patients.

AIM To investigate the effects of rice wine type and wine processing method on chemical constituents and anti-coagulation effect of Angelicae sinensis Radix.METHODS Wine-washed products and wine-stir-fried products were prepared by different types and ages of rice wine,respectively,after which HPLC was adopted in the content determination of tryptophan,chlorogenic acid,vanillic acid,phthalic acid,ferulic acid,senkyunolide I,senkyunolide H,coniferyl ferulate and ligustilide,and PT,APTT,TT were detected in rabbit plasma.RESULTS Phenolic acids and volatile constituents demonstrated lower contents in the wine-stir-fried products than those in the raw product(P＜0.05),while those in the wine-washed products displayed no obvious changes(except for senkyunolide I)(P＞0.05).The contents of volatile constituents in the wine-washed products were higher than those in the wine-stir-fried products(P＜0.05).After being processed with dry rice wine,various constituents exhibited increased contents as compared with those after being processed with sweet rice wine(P＜0.05).Compared with the raw product,prolonged PT,APTT and TT were observable in the processed products prepared by 3-year semi-dry rice wine(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION The optimal rice wine type is determined to be 3-year semi-dry.Wine-washed Angelicae sinensis Radix shows high contents of ferulic acid and volatile constituents,whose activating blood and resolving stasis effect may be stronger.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective:To investigate the value of biparametric-MRI (bpMRI) based peritumoral radiomics for preoperative prediction of extraprostatic extension (EPE) in prostate cancer (PCa).Methods:In this cross-sectional study, consecutive bpMRI of patients undergoing prostatectomy for PCa were retrospectively collected from the First Medical Center (center 1) and the Third Medical Center (center 2) of Chinese PLA General Hospital. A total of 274 patients were finally enrolled. Patients at center 1 from January 2020 to December 2022 were randomly divided into a training set (149 cases) and an internal validation set (63 cases) by stratified random sampling. Patients at center 2 from January 2023 to March 2024 were assigned to the external test set (62 cases). Patients were categorized into EPE-positive group and EPE-negative group according to pathological assessment postoperatively. In the training set, there were 49 cases in EPE-positive group and 100 cases in EPE-negative group. In the internal validation set, there were 26 cases in EPE-positive group and 37 cases in EPE-negative group. In the external test set, there were 22 cases in EPE-positive group and 40 cases in EPE-negative group. Axial T 2WI and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) images were manually annotated to obtain index lesion regions of interest (ROIs), with the peritumoral ROIs subsequently delineated by semi-automatic segmentation technique. Radiomics features were extracted from intra-tumoral, peri-tumoral, and intra-tumoral plus peri-tumoral ROIs. The training set data was employed to select and optimize features to build the radiomics models. The logistic regression analysis was used to develop radiomics, clinical, and integrated models. The predictive performance was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) in the external test set, and compared by the DeLong test. The sensitivity and specificity were compared by the exact McNemar test. Results:In the external test set, the peri-tumoral radiomics model based on bpMRI showed the highest performance in evaluating EPE, with an AUC of 0.739 (95% CI 0.611-0.842), which was identified as the optimal radiomics model. EPE grade ( OR=6.151, 95% CI 3.371-11.226, P<0.001) was incorporated into the clinical model, with an AUC of 0.780 (95% CI 0.657-0.875) in the external test set. The integrated model had an AUC of 0.817 (95% CI 0.698-0.904) in the external test set. There was no statistically significant difference in comparisons of AUCs among the three models (all P>0.05). The sensitivity of the integrated model (68.2%) showed no significant difference from those of the clinical model and the optimal radiomics model (77.3% and 86.4%, respectively; P=0.500 and P=0.289). However, the specificity of the integrated model (85.0%) was significantly higher than those of the clinical model (67.5%, P=0.016) and the optimal radiomics model (50.0%, P<0.001). Conclusion:A bpMRI-based peritumoral radiomics integrating clinical model demonstrates high performance for preoperative prediction of EPE in PCa.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of acupuncture on the neurotransmitter levels and gut microbiota in a mouse model of Tourette syndrome (TS). METHODS: Thirty-six male C57/BL6 mice were randomly divided into 4 groups using a random number table method: 3,3'-iminodipropionitrile (IDPN) group, control group, acupuncture group, and tiapride group, with 9 mice in each group. In the IDPN group, acupuncture group, and tiapride group, mice received daily intraperitoneal injections of IDPN (300 mg/kg body weight) for 7 consecutive days to induce stereotyped behaviors. Subsequently, in the acupuncture intervention group, standardized acupuncture treatment was administered for 14 consecutive days to IDPN-induced TS model mice. The selected acupoints included Baihui (DU 20), Yintang (DU 29), Waiguan (SJ 5), and Zulinqi (GB 41). In the tiapride group, mice were administered tiapride (50 mg/kg body weight) via oral gavage daily for 14 consecutive days. The control group, IDPN group, and acupuncture group received the same volume of saline orally for 14 consecutive days. Stereotypic behaviors were quantified through behavioral assessments. Neurotransmitter levels, including dopamine (DA), glutamate (Glu), and aspartate (ASP) in striatal tissue were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Dopamine transporter (DAT) expression levels were additionally quantified through quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Gut microbial composition was analyzed through 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing, while metabolic profiling was conducted using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). RESULTS: Acupuncture administration significantly attenuated stereotypic behaviors, concurrently reducing striatal levels of DA, Glu and ASP concentrations while upregulating DAT expression compared with untreated TS controls (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Comparative analysis identified significant differences in Muribaculaceae (P=0.001), Oscillospiraceae (P=0.049), Desulfovibrionaceae (P=0.001), and Marinifilaceae (P=0.014) following acupuncture intervention. Metabolomic profiling revealed alterations in 7 metabolites and 18 metabolic pathways when compared to the TS mice, which involved various amino acid metabolisms associated with DA, Glu, and ASP. CONCLUSIONS Acupuncture demonstrates significant modulatory effects on both central neurotransmitter systems and gut microbial ecology, thereby highlighting its dual therapeutic potential for TS management through gut-brain axis regulation.

Objective:To investigate the temporal correlation between occupational stress and elevated blood pressure among petroleum workers in Xinjiang.Methods:Based on the Occupational Health Study Cohort of Petroleum Workers (OHSPIW), 1600 petroleum workers in Xinjiang who underwent occupational health examinations from May to June 2015 and December 2017 were selected as the research subjects. The occupational stress of workers was evaluated using the Occupational Roles Questionnaire (ORQ) in the Occupational Stress Inventory-Revised (OSI-R). The blood pressure measurement data of physical examination results were collected. The relationship between the ORQ total score and blood pressure was analyzed using Spearman rank correlation, and the causal time-series relationship between occupational stress and elevated blood pressure over time was analyzed by cross-lagged path analysis modelling.Results:In the baseline data of petroleum workers, the systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were 124.00 (119.00, 128.00) and 77.00 (73.00, 82.00) mmHg respectively, with an ORQ total score of 164.00 (154.00, 174.00) points. In the follow-up data, the SBP and DBP were 126.00 (123.00, 128.00) and 78.00 (75.00, 82.00) mmHg respectively, and the ORQ total score was 168.00 (157.00, 181.00) points. The results of the correlation analysis showed that the ORQ total score of petroleum workers was positively correlated with the levels of SBP and DBP ( P<0.05), and the ORQ total score at follow-up was negatively correlated with the baseline levels of SBP and DBP ( P<0.05). The results of the cross-lagged path analysis showed that the path coefficients from the baseline ORQ total score of petroleum workers to the follow-up SBP and DBP levels were statistically significant ( ρ=0.06, 0.06, P=0.032, 0.011). In terms of time sequence, the increase in the ORQ total score preceded the increase in the SBP and DBP levels. Conclusion:The occupational stress of petroleum workers is related to blood pressure, and the increase of occupational stress precedes the change of blood pressure. This correlation may increase the risk of hypertension among petroleum workers.
