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 explore the application value of laparoscopic assisted ileostomy closure after prophylactic ileostomy.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 63 cases of middle and low rectal cancer who received ileostomy closure after prophylactic ileostomy in natural orifice specimen extraction surgery(NOSES)from September 2017 to May 2023.Among them,31 cases underwent laparoscopic assisted ileostomy closure(observation group),and 32 cases underwent conventional open ileostomy closure(control group).The operative time,intraoperative blood loss,time to first ambulation,time to first flatus,time to first liquid diet,postoperative pain score,postoperative hospital stay time,and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results All the 63 cases successfully underwent ileostomy closure.The observation group showed significantly better outcomes than the control group in operative time[(63.2±5.7)min vs.(93.5±4.7)min,t=-23.109,P=0.000],intraoperative blood loss[7.0(6.0,8.0)ml vs.22.5(21.0,24.0)ml,Z=-6.853,P=0.000],time to first ambulation[1.0(1.0,1.0)d vs.2.0(2.0,2.0)d,Z=-5.653,P=0.000],time to first flatus[1.0(1.0,2.0)d vs.2.0(2.0,2.0)d,Z=-5.304,P=0.000],time to first liquid diet[2.0(2.0,3.0)d vs.3.0(2.0,3.0)d,Z=-3.000,P=0.003],postoperative pain score[24 h:3.0(3.0,4.0)vs.4.0(3.0,4.0),Z=-4.501,P=0.000;48 h:2.0(2.0,2.0)vs.3.0(2.0,3.0),Z=-3.750,P=0.000;72 h:1.0(1.0,2.0)vs.2.0(2.0,2.0),Z=-2.996,P=0.003],and postoperative hospital stay[(6.8±1.6)dvs.(8.5±1.5)d,t=-4.297,P=0.000].The observation group had a lower postoperative incision infection rate than the control group[3.2％(1/31)vs.34.4％(11/32),x2=9.908,P=0.002],while no significant differences were observed in incision dehiscence,intestinal obstruction,or abdominal hemorrhage(P＞0.05).Conclusions For patients with middle and low rectal cancer who undergoing ileostomy closure after prophylactic ileostomy in NOSES,laparoscopic assisted ileostomy closure is safe and feasible.Compared with open surgery,it reduces incision infection rate,alleviates postoperative pain,shortens hospital stay,and promotes recovery.

Aim To investigate the role and mecha-nism of allopurinol(ALLO)in restoring the abnormal metabolism of kynurenine(Kyn)mediated by trypto-phan-2,3-dioxygenase 2(TDO2)to ameliorate ulcera-tive colitis(UC)in mice,and to provide experimental basis for the treatment of UC by ALLO.Methods A dextran sodium sulfate(DSS)-induced mouse UC mod-el was established,and the mice were randomly divided into the control group,the model group,the ALLO low,medium and high-dose groups(10,20,and 40 mg·kg-1),and the positive-significant salazosulfapyridine(SASP)(200 mg·kg-1)group.The body mass and disease activity index(DAI)scores of mice were re-corded;HE staining was performed to observe the de-gree of pathological damage in colon tissue;Western blot was performed to detect TDO2 protein expression in colon tissue;flow cytometry was performed to detect changes in the proportion of macrophages in spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes;ELISA was employed to de-tect the levels of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 pro-inflamma-tory cytokines in the supernatant of colon tissue homog-enate;high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was used to detect the levels of tryptophan(Trp)and Kyn in the supernatant of colon tissue ho-mogenate.Results Compared with the model group,ALLO administration significantly ameliorated colonic histopathological injury in UC mice,decreased the pro-portion of macrophages in spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes,down-regulated the levels of TNF-α,IL-1 β,and IL-6 pro-inflammatory factors in serum of homogenate of colonic tissues,and inhibited the activity(Kyn/Trp ratio)and expression of TDO2 in colonic tissues.Con-clusion ALLO improves disease manifestations in mice with ulcerative colitis,which may be related to its restoration of abnormal Kyn metabolism.

The medulla oblongata,situated at the caudal portion of the brainstem,serves as a critical regulatory center responsible for maintaining fundamental vital functions including respiratory and cardiovascular homeostasis.As a pivotal hub within the autonomic nervous system,it orchestrates the coordinated control of afferent and efferent neural pathways.Dysfunction of this region may precipitate life-threatening cardiorespiratory arrest,associated with substantial mortality rates.This case report presents a patient who developed acute extensive anterior myocardial infarction during treatment with dual antiplatelet therapy and moderate-intensity statins following acute medullary infarction.It is hypothesized that the pathogenesis may involve the acceleration of plaque erosion by the stroke-heart syndrome.This clinical case provides valuable insights into the complex neurocardiac interplay,particularly highlighting the imperative for enhanced recognition of brain-heart axis interactions in cerebrovascular pathology.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of human papillomavirus(HPV)infection in women in the Zhongguancun area of Beijing,and to evaluate the infection rates and genotype distribution between different populations and age groups.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on HPV genotyping results of 13,105 women who visited the gynecology outpatient department or underwent routine health check-ups at Zhongguancun Hospital from March 2019 to April 2024.High-risk HPV genotypes(15 types)were detected using a fluorescence PCR assay.Positive cases were classified as single,dual or multiple(≥3)infections based on the number of genotypes.Subjects were stratified into six age groups(≤30,31-40,41-50,51-60,61-70,and≥71 years),and the characteristics of infection by type and age group were analyzed.Results The overall HPV positivity rate was 10.78%(1,413/13,105),with a significantly higher rate in the outpatient group than that in the health check-up group(16.36%vs.6.06%,P<0.01).The three most prevalent genotypes were HPV52(18.83%),HPV58(13.85%),and HPV16(11.28%).Single infections accounted for 79.19%of cases,dual infections for 15.93%and multiple infections for 4.88%.Age distribution showed a U-shaped pattern,with higher infection rate in women aged≤30 years(15.06%)and 61-70 years(13.19%),and the lowest rate in the≥71 years(8.09%).Notably,women aged≤30 years had the highest proportion of multiple infections(31.72%).Conclusion These findings provide a basis for cervical cancer screening strategies,HPV vaccination promotion and individualized prevention of cervical cancer in this region.

Nipah virus (NiV) and related viruses form a distinct henipavirus genus within the Paramyxoviridae family. NiV continues to spillover into the humans causing deadly outbreaks with increasing human-bat interaction. NiV encodes the large protein (L) and phosphoprotein (P) to form the viral RNA polymerase machinery. Their sequences show limited homologies to those of non-henipavirus paramyxoviruses. We report two cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the Nipah virus (NiV) polymerase L-P complex, expressed and purified in either its full-length or truncated form. The structures resolve the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and polyribonucleotidyl transferase (PRNTase) domains of the L protein, as well as a tetrameric P protein bundle bound to the L-RdRp domain. L-protein C-terminal regions are unresolved, indicating flexibility. Two PRNTase domain zinc-binding sites, conserved in most Mononegavirales, are confirmed essential for NiV polymerase activity. The structures further reveal anchoring of the P protein bundle and P protein X domain (XD) linkers on L, via an interaction pattern distinct among Paramyxoviridae. These interactions facilitate binding of a P protein XD linker in the nucleotide entry channel and distinct positioning of other XD linkers. We show that the disruption of the L-P interactions reduces NiV polymerase activity. The reported structures should facilitate rational antiviral-drug discovery and provide a guide for the functional study of NiV polymerase.

Objective: To investigate the influencing factors for kinesiophobia among elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), so as to provide the reference for alleviating kinesiophobia among COPD patients. Methods: From December 2023 to July 2024, COPD patients aged 60 years and above who sought medical treatment at a tertiary grade-a hospital in Guiyang City were selected. Demographic information was collected through questionnaire surveys. Kinesiophobia, exercise self-efficacy, social support, type D personality and coping styles were assessed using the Chinese version of Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, the Chinese version of the Self-Efficacy for Exercise Scale, Social Support Rating Scale, Type D Personality Scale and Chinese version of the Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire, respectively. Factors affecting kinesiophobia among elderly patients with COPD were analyzed using a multiple linear regression model. Results: A total of 300 COPD patients were surveyed, including 238 males (79.33%) and 62 females (20.67%). The majority of patients had a disease duration of less than 5 years, with 130 cases (43.33%). The average kinesiophobia score was (48.01±7.74) points. The average exercise self-efficacy score was (3.39±1.01) points. The average social support score was (34.42±6.76) points. There were 280 patients (93.33%) with type D personality. The average scores of the confrontation, avoidance, and resignation dimensions of coping styles were (17.42±5.00), (13.76±1.91), and (11.81±2.95) points, respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age (70-<80 years, β'=0.124; ≥80 years, β'=0.205), educational level (primary school and below, β'=0.228; junior high school, β'=0.182), household monthly income per capita (<3 000 yuan, β'=0.234; 3 000~<5 000 yuan, β'=0.165), social support (β'=0.294), type D personality (β'= 0.170), and coping styles (confrontation dimension, β'=-0.140; avoidance dimension, β'=0.154; resignation dimension, β'=0.175) statistically associated with kinesiophobia among elderly patients with COPD. Conclusion Kinesiophobia among elderly patients with COPD is associated with age, educational level, household monthly income per capita, social support, type D personality and coping styles.
