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.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have found that for postmenopausal osteoporosis patients,the Bushen Jianpi Formula can help regulate serum osteoclast-and osteoblast-related factors and intestinal flora levels,improve clinical symptoms of patients and further improve efficacy.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Bushen Jianpi Formula on bone metabolism and bone microarchitecture in ovariectomized rats.METHODS:Twenty-four female SD rats were randomly divided into four groups by random number table method:sham operation group(n=6)was subjected to periovarian fat removal,and bilateral ovariectomy was performed in model group(n=6),alendronate group(n=6),and Bushen Jianpi Formula group(n=6).Five days after modeling,the Bushen Jianpi Formula group was given Bushen Jianpi Formula by intragastric administration(once a day).The alendronate sodium group was given alendronate by intragastric administration(once a week).The sham operation group and model group were given an equal volume of normal saline by intragastric administration(once a day)for 12 consecutive weeks.After intragastric administration,serum levels of procollagen Ⅰ N-terminal peptide,β-isomerized C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen degradation product,and tumor necrosis factor α were detected.The distal femur microstructure was detected by Micro-CT.The femoral tissue morphology was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.The expression of type Ⅰ collagen and tumor necrosis factorα in the femur was detected by immunohistochemical staining.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The serum ELISA test showed that compared with the sham operation group,the level of procollagen Ⅰ N-terminal peptide in the model group decreased(P＜0.05),and the levels of degradation products of β-isomerized C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen and tumor necrosis factor α increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the levels of the procollagen Ⅰ N-terminal peptide in the Bushen Jianpi Formula group and the alendronate sodium group increased(P＜0.05),and the levels of β-isomerized C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen degradation products and tumor necrosis factor α decreased(P＜0.05).(2)Micro-CT three-dimensional reconstruction showed that compared with the sham operation group,the number of bone trabeculae in the model group was significantly reduced,the continuity was worsened,and the gaps were increased.Both alendronate sodium and Bushen Jianpi Formula had a positive improvement effect on this phenomenon.(3)Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that compared with the sham operation group,the number of bone trabeculae in the model group was reduced and the shape became thinner,and the network structure was destroyed.Compared with the model group,the number of bone trabeculae in the Bushen Jianpi Formula group and the alendronate sodium group increased,the shape became thicker,and the reticular structure was restored.(4)Immunohistochemical staining showed that compared with the sham operation group,the expression of type Ⅰ collagen was reduced and tumor necrosis factor α expression was increased in the model group.Compared with the model group,the expression of type Ⅰ collagen increased and the expression of tumor necrosis factor α decreased in the Bushen Jianpi Formula group and the alendronate sodium group.The results show that the Bushen Jianpi Formula can effectively improve bone metabolism and bone microstructure in ovariectomized rats.

Objective To investigate the effects of two driving pressure-based methods to set positive end-expiratory pressure on pulmonary mechanics and oxygenation in patients undergoing laparoscopic and thoracoscopic esophagectomy.Methods Sixty patients undergoing laparoscopic and thoracoscopic esophagectomy were divided into two groups(n=30 each):incremental group(group Ⅰ)and decremental group(group D).PEEP titration was performed in both groups during thoracoscopy and laparoscopy.Respiratory mechanics parameters,hemodynamic parameters,and blood gas analysis were collected for analysis before preoxygenation(T0),10 minutes after intuba-tion(T1),20 minutes after PEEP application for one-lung ventilation(T2),20 minutes after PEEP application for two-lung ventilation(T3),before extubation(T4),and 30 minutes after extubation(Ts).The postoperative pulmonary complications within 3 days and 7 days after operation,hospitalization duration,and costs were recorded.Results Compared with group Ⅰ,patients in group D showed higher oxygenation index and pulmonary compliance during surgery(P＜0.05).In both groups,driving pressure decreased and compliance increased after PEEP titration(P＜0.05).Conclusion Both driving pressure-guided incremental and decremental titration of individualized PEEP improved intraoperative respiratory mechanics in patients undergoing laparoscopic and thoracoscopic esopha-gectomy,and decremental titration was more effective in improving intraoperative respiratory mechanics and oxygenation in patients during operation.

Periodontitis is a common oral disease characterized by progressive alveolar bone resorption and inflammation of the periodontal tissues. Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) has been used in the treatment of various immune-inflammatory diseases due to its excellent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant functions. Here, we investigated for the first time the therapeutic effect of DMF on periodontitis. In vivo studies showed that DMF significantly inhibited periodontal destruction, enhanced mitophagy, and decreased the M1/M2 macrophage ratio. In vitro studies showed that DMF inhibited macrophage polarization toward M1 macrophages and promoted polarization toward M2 macrophages, with improved mitochondrial function, inhibited oxidative stress, and increased mitophagy in RAW 264.7 cells. Furthermore, DMF increased intracellular mitochondrial Tu translation elongation factor (TUFM) levels to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis, promoted mitophagy, and modulated macrophage polarization, whereas TUFM knockdown decreased the protective effect of DMF. Finally, mechanistic studies showed that DMF increased intracellular TUFM levels by protecting TUFM from degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation pathway. Our results demonstrate for the first time that DMF protects mitochondrial function and inhibits oxidative stress through TUFM-mediated mitophagy in macrophages, resulting in a shift in the balance of macrophage polarization, thereby attenuating periodontitis. Importantly, this study provides new insights into the prevention of periodontitis.

Radiochemotherapy-induced oral mucositis (OM) is a common oral complication in patients with tumors following head and neck radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Erosion and ulcers are the main features of OM that seriously affect the quality of life of patients and even the progress of tumor treatment. To date, differences in clinical prevention and treatment plans for OM have been noted among doctors of various specialties, which has increased the uncertainty of treatment effects. On the basis of current research evidence, this expert consensus outlines risk factors, clinical manifestations, clinical grading, ancillary examinations, diagnostic basis, prevention and treatment strategies and efficacy indicators for OM. In addition to strategies such as basic oral care, anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents, anti-infective agents, pro-healing agents, and photobiotherapy recommended in previous guidelines, we also emphasize the role of traditional Chinese medicine in OM prevention and treatment. This expert consensus aims to provide references and guidance for dental physicians and oncologists in formulating strategies for OM prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, standardizing clinical practice, reducing OM occurrence, promoting healing, and improving the quality of life of patients.

Objective:To report the nationwide surveillance results of pathogenic profiles and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Gram-positive bloodstream infections in China in 2023.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-posttive bacteria from blood cultures were collected in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）during January to December 2023. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the dilution method recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. Statistical analyses were conducted using WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software.Results:A total of 4 385 Gram-positive bacterial isolates were obtained from 60 participating center. The top five pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 544，35.2%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=1 441，32.9%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=574，13.1%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=385，8.8%），and α-hemolytic Streptococci（ n=187，4.3%）. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）was 26.2%（405/1 544）and 69.8%（1 006/1 441），respectively. Notably，all Staphylococci remained susceptible to glycopeptide or daptomycin. Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated excellent susceptibility（>97.0%）to cephalobiol，rifampicin，trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline，tigecycline，and eravacycline. No Enterococcus exhibiting resistance to linezolid were detected. Glycopeptide resistance was uncommon but more frequent in Enterococcus faecium（resistance to vancomycin and teicoplanin：both 1.7%）compared to Enterococcus faecalis（both 0.3%）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS exhibited significant regional variations across the country（ χ2=17.674 and 148.650，respectively，both P<0.001）. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci were detected in central China. Institutional comparison demonstrated higher prevalence of MRSA（ χ2=14.111， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.828， P=0.028）in provincial hospitals than that in municipal hospitals. Socioeconomic analysis identified elevated detection rates of both MRSA（ χ2=18.986， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.477， P=0.034）in less developed regions（per capita GDP

Objective:To report the results of bacterial resistant investigation collaborative system（BRICS）on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2023，and provide reference for clinical tretment of bloodstream infections and prevention and control of bacterial resistance.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of BRICS were collected during January 2023 to December 2023. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals，of which 10 098（87.9%）were Enterobacterales and 1 394（12.1%）were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（50.0%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（26.1%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（5.1%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（5.0%）and Enterobacter cloacae complex（4.1%）. The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%（2 685/5 741），18.3%（549/2 999）and 44.0%（77/175），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（76/5 741）and 15.0%（450/2 999）；32.9%（25/76）and 78.0%（351/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. 94.7%（72/76）and 90.2%（406/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore，57.9%（44/76）and 79.1%（356/450）were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 64.6%（370/573），while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline，eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 17.0%（99/581）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA and CRAB complex（ χ2=10.6，28.6，10.8 and 19.3， P<0.05）. The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli， CREC，CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=12.5，9.8，12.7 and 57.8，all P<0.01）. Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend，CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level，and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.
