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.

Based on whole-genome identification of the TPS gene family in Perilla frutescens and screening, cloning, bioinformatics, and expression analysis of the synthetic enzyme for the insect-resistant component germacrene D, this study lays the foundation for understanding the biological function of the TPS gene family and the insect resistance mechanism in P. frutescens. This study used bioinformatics tools to identify the TPS gene family of P. frutescens based on its whole genome and predicted the physicochemical properties, systematic classification, and promoter cis-elements of the proteins. The relative content of germacrene D was detected in both normal and insect-infested leaves of P. frutescens, and the germacrene D synthase was screened and isolated. Gene cloning, bioinformatics analysis, and expression profiling were then performed. The results showed that a total of 99 TPS genes were identified in the genome, which were classified into the TPS-a, TPS-b, TPS-c, TPS-e/f, and TPS-g subfamilies. Conserved motif analysis showed that the TPS in P. frutescens has conserved structural characteristics within the same subfamily. Promoter cis-element analysis predicted the presence of light-responsive elements, multiple hormone-responsive elements, and stress-responsive elements in the TPS family of P. frutescens. Transcriptome data revealed that most of the TPS genes in P. frutescens were highly expressed in the leaves. GC-MS analysis showed that the relative content of germacrene D significantly increased in insect-damaged leaves, suggesting that it may act as an insect-resistant component. The germacrene D synthase gene was screened through homologous protein binding gene expression and was found to belong to the TPS-a subfamily, encoding a 64.89 kDa protein. This protein was hydrophilic, lacked a transmembrane structure and signal peptide, and was predominantly expressed in leaves, with significantly higher expression in insect-damaged leaves compared to normal leaves. In vitro expression results showed that germacrene D synthase tended to form inclusion bodies. Molecular docking showed that farnesyl pyrophosphate(FPP) fell into the active pocket of the protein and interacted strongly with six active sites. This study provides a foundation for further research on the biological functions of the TPS gene family in P. frutescens and the molecular mechanisms underlying its insect resistance.

Objective To explore the effect of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS)in treating patients with hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome(HSOS)caused by gynura segetum,and to analyze the mid-to-long-term survival.Methods The clinical data of 44 patients with HSOS caused by gynura segetum,who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from April 2016 to September 2022 to receive TIPS treatment,were retrospectively analyzed.The preoperative and postoperative liver and kidney functions,ascites,and portal vein pressure were compared.Ultrasonography examination was performed to check the patency of stent and the thickness of ascites,the postoperative complications were recorded.Kaplan-Meier curve was used to calculate the cumulative survival so as to evaluate the survival of patients.Results Based on the severity of the illness,the 44 patients were divided into mild group(n=5),moderate group(n=13),severe group(n=19)and very severe group(n=7).Successful TIPS operation was achieved in all the patients,with a surgical success rate of 100％.No serious complications occurred.After TIPS,the incidence of hepatic encephalopathy(HE)was 20.5％(9/44).The portal pressure decreased from preoperative(42.00±0.91)cm H2 O to postoperative(18.27±0.67)cm H2O,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.001).The postoperative blood creatinine,aminotransferase,total bilirubin and Child-Pugh score were decreased when compared with their preoperative values,while the albumin level was increased when compared with its preoperative value,the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The postoperative one-year and 5-year cumulative survival rates were 90.9％and 88.6％respectively.The 1-,3-,6-and 12-month survival rates in mild group were all 100％,in moderate group were 100.0％,100.0％,92.3％and 92.3％respectively,in severe group were 94.7％,94.7％,94.7％and 89.5％respectively,and in very severe group were 85.7％,71.4％,71.4％and 71.4％respectively.Conclusion For the treatment of HSOS caused by gynura segetum,TIPS can significantly improve the patient's ascites with low overall complication rate and high mid-to-long-term survival rate.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease(MASLD)is a chronic liver condition intricately linked to metabolic abnormalities such as obesity,type 2 diabetes,dyslipidemia,and hypertension.The global prevalence of MASLD continues to rise,posing a significant public health challenge.The pathogenesis of MASLD is multifactorial,with the"multiple-hit"hypothesis suggesting that hepatic lipid accumulation,insulin resistance,oxidative stress,gut microbiota dysbiosis,and genetic factors collectively drive disease progression.Currently,clinical management primarily relies on lifestyle interventions;however,there is a lack of targeted pharmacological interventions,and there is an urgent need to investigate novel adjunctive therapeutic strategies.In recent years,probiotics have demonstrated potential value in MASLD treatment due to their capacity to modulate gut microbiota,enhance insulin sensitivity,and reduce liver inflammation.This review systematically examines the pathogenesis of MASLD and the limitations of existing therapeutic approaches,synthesizing the latest evidence of probiotics-assisted therapy for MASLD from the perspectives of animal studies and clinical trials.By analyzing the target mechanisms and molecular pathways of different strains(e.g.,Bifidobacterium,Lactobacillus),this review explores the translational potential of probiotics in MASLD treatment,aiming to provide a theoretical foundation and future research directions.

Objective To explore the role and possible molecular mechanism of Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1(IDH1)gene in proliferation and migration of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(iCCA)cell HuCCT1.Methods HuCCT1 cells with IDH1 gene knockout(HuCCT1IDH1-/-)were constructed by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology.To investigate the capacities of proliferation,migration and invasion of HuCCT1WT(HuCCT1 cells with wild-type IDH1 gene)and HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells,assays of CCK-8,clone formation,scratch and transwell were performed.Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)associated proteins E-cadherin,N-cadherin,Vimentin,MMP-9,Wnt3a and β-catenin in two groups of cells.The transcriptome sequencing data of HuCCT1WT and HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells were analyzed by bioinformatics methods,Western blotting was used to verify the expression of signaling pathway-related proteins.Results Compared with HuCCT1WT cells,HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells showed the number of proliferation and clone formation significantly reduced(P<0.05),the proportion of cells blocked in G2/M phase was significantly increased(P<0.01),the rate of scratch healing was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the number of migrated cells(P<0.001)and invaded cells(P<0.05)was significantly reduced.qRT-PCR assay showed that the expression levels of IDH1,Vimentin,MMP-9 and genes related to the regulation of G2/M cycle proliferation,Cyclin A2,Cyclin B1 and CDK1 mRNA were down-regulated in HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells(P<0.05),and the expression of CDH1 mRNA encoding E-cadherin was up-regulated(P<0.01);Western blotting assay showed that the expression level of E-cadherin in HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells was significantly increased(P<0.05),and the expression level of N-cadherin,Vimentin and MMP-9 protein was significantly decreased(P<0.05)than that in HuCCT1WT cells.Data of transcriptome sequencing revealed 1476 differentially expressed genes(DEGs)between two groups of HuCCT1 cells.Go enrichment analysis showed the DEGs were significantly enriched in cell biological processes associated with inflammatory response,cell signaling and cell metabolism.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis suggested that the DEGs may be involved in some signaling pathways such as Wnt,MAPK,Rap1,Hippo and TNF,which are closely related to the regulation of proliferation and invasion of tumor cells.Western blotting verification results showed that compared with HuCCT1WT cells,the relative expression of Wnt3a and β-catenin proteins of HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells was significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusions IDH1 gene may participate in the control of biological functions of HuCCT1 cells,including cell proliferation,migration,invasion and epithelial mesenchymal transition.The mechanism may be related to the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Objective: To assess the role of dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI of the extraocular muscles (EOMs) for determining the activity of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) and treatment response to glucocorticoids (GCs). Materials and Methods: We prospectively enrolled 65 patients with TAO (41 active, 82 eyes; 24 inactive, 48 eyes). Twenty-two active patients completed the GC treatment and follow-up assessment, including 15 patients (30 eyes) and 7 patients (14 eyes), defined as responsive and unresponsive, respectively. Model-free (time to peak [TTP], area under the curve [AUC], and Slope max) and model-based (Ktrans , Kep, and Ve) parameters of EOMs in embedded simplified histogram analyses were calculated and compared between groups. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent predictors. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance. Results: Active patients exhibited significantly higher TTP at the 10th percentile (-10th), TTP-mean, and TTP at the 90th percentile (-90th); AUC-10th, AUC-mean, AUC-90th, and AUC-max; Ktrans -10th and Ktrans -mean; and Ve-10th, Ve-mean, Ve-90th, and Ve-max than inactive patients (P < 0.05). Responsive patients exhibited significantly lower TTP-min; higher Ktrans -mean and Ktrans -max; and higher Kep-10th, Kep-mean, and Kep-max than unresponsive patients (P < 0.05). TTP-mean and Ve-mean were independent variables for determining disease activity (P = 0.017 and 0.022, respectively). A combination of the two parameters could determine active TAO with moderate performance (AUROC = 0.687). TTP-min and Ktrans -mean were independent predictors of the response to GCs (P = 0.023 and 0.004, respectively), uniting which could determine the response to GCs with decent performance (AUROC = 0.821). Conclusion DCE-MRI-derived model-free and model-based parameters of EOMs can assist in the evaluation of TAO. In particular, TTP-mean and Ve-mean could be useful for determining the activity of TAO, whereas TTP-min and K trans -mean could be promising biomarkers for determining the response to GCs.

Objective To explore the risk factors of early femoral head necrosis in patients with femoral neck fracture after operation,and to establish a nomogram prediction model.Methods A total of 167 patients with femoral neck fracture from Jan-uary 2020 to April 2022 were selected and divided into necrosis group and non-necrosis group according to whether femoral head necrosis occurred in the early postoperative period.There were 21 males and 17 females in the necrosis group,aged from 33 to 72 years old,with an average of(53.49±10.96)years old,and the time from injury to operation ranged from 40 to 67 hours,with average time of(53.46±7.23)hours.There were 72 males and 57 females in the non-necrosis group,aged from 18 to 83 years,with an average of(52.78±12.55)years old,and the time from injury to operation was 18 to 65 hours,with an aver-age time of(39.88±7.79)hours.The potential influencing factors,including patient gender,diabetes mellitus,hypertension,chronic liver disease,posterior inclination angle of the femoral head,operation mode,fracture displacement,fracture line loca-tion,preoperative braking traction,screw arrangement mode,reduction quality,age,body mass index(BMI),and injury to operation time were subjected to single factor analysis.Logistic multivariate regression analysis was conducted for factors with a significance level of P＜0.05.Results The incidence of femoral head necrosis in 167 patients with femoral neck fracture was 22.76％.The following factors were identified as independent risk factors for early postoperative femoral head necrosis in pa-tients with femoral neck fractures:coexisting diabetes[OR=5.139,95％CI(1.405,18.793),P=0.013],displaced fracture[OR=3.723,95％CI(1.105,12.541),P=0.034],preoperative immobilization[OR=3.444,95％CI(1.038,11.427),P=0.043],quality of reduction[OR=3.524,95％CI(1.676,7.411),P=0.001],and time from injury to surgery[OR=1.270,95％CI(1.154,1.399),P=0.000].The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test(x2=3.951,P=0.862),the area under the receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve was 0.944[P＜0.001,95％CI(0.903,0.987)],with a sensitivity of 89.50％,the specificity was 88.40％,the maxi-mum Youden index was 0.779,and the overall trend of the model correction curve was close to the ideal curve.Model regres-sion equation was Z=1.637 × diabetes+1.314× fracture displacement+1.237 × preoperative braking traction+1.260 × reduc-tion quality+0.239 ×injury to operation time-18.310.Conclusion The occurrence of early femoral head necrosis in patients with femoral neck fracture postoperatively is affected by multiple factors.The risk early warning model established according to the factors has good predictive efficacy.
