ObjectiveTo investigate the temporal trend of weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) and its association with the risk of incident cardiovascular diseases (CVD) among middle-aged and older Chinese adults. MethodsBased on the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), this research enrolled participants aged 45 and above with complete physical measurement data from the 2011, 2013, and 2015 waves. Complex sampling weights were applied to calculate the mean WWI, and the Mann-Kendall test was used to analyze its trend. From the 2011 baseline survey, individuals with a history of cardiovascular disease or missing key covariates were further excluded. New-onset cardiovascular outcome events were collected during follow-up until 2020. Participants were categorized into Q1–Q4 groups based on baseline WWI quartiles. Multivariable log-binomial regression models were constructed to assess the association between WWI and CVD, while restricted cubic splines were employed to evaluate potential nonlinear relationships. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to verify the robustness of the findings. ResultsFrom 2011 to 2015, the weighted mean WWI among Chinese middle-aged and older adults remained generally stable (2011: 11.17±1.68; 2013: 11.28±1.35; 2015: 11.24±1.59; P for trend <0.05). During the longitudinal follow-up, 1 784 incident CVD cases were documented. After multivariable adjustment, each unit increase in WWI was associated with a 17% increased risk of CVD (RR: 1.17, 95%CI: 1.10-1.24). Compared with the Q1 group, the risk of CVD in the Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups increased by 23% (RR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.07-1.40), 27% (RR: 1.27, 95% CI: 1.11-1.44), and 40% (RR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.22-1.60), respectively. A significant linear trend was observed between the increasing WWI and elevated CVD risk (P for trend <0.001). Subgroup analysis revealed a stronger association in participants aged 45-60 years (P for interaction <0.05). The results of sensitivity analysis were consistent with the main research results. ConclusionsThe overall trend of WWI level in the middle-aged and elderly population in China is stable from 2011 to 2015. The higher level of WWI is associated with an increased risk of CVD, suggesting that WWI may be used as a simple and effective indicator to evaluate the risk of cardiovascular metabolism in middle-aged and elderly people.

Objective Using cockroach surveillance data in Nanjing from 2017 to 2024, we have descriptively analyzed population characteristics and changes in insecticide resistance among Blattella germanica, and have established a seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model to predict monthly population densities in Nanjing spanning the year 2025. Methods B. germanica density and infestation rate were monitored using the sticky trap method, and insecticide resistance was assessed using the residual contact method. Our ARIMA model was applied to fit and estimate cockroach density fluctuations over time. Results From 2017 to 2024, B. germanica accounted for 94.90% of all cockroach specimens captured in Nanjing, with an average density of 0.37 cockroaches per trap and an average infestation rate of 5.56%. Significant differences in density and infestation rate were observed among different habitats (P<0.001). Significant downward annual trends in both density and infestation rate were found (P<0.05). ARIMA was found to be the optimal model for fitting the density data from 2017 to 2024 (0, 1, 1) × (0, 1, 1)1 2. Conclusions From 2017 to 2024, B. germanica was overwhelmingly the dominant cockroach species in Nanjing, with both its density and infestation rate declining annually. A positive correlation was observed between the amount and proportion of insecticide use and the development of insecticide resistance (P<0.05). The established model demonstrated good performance in predicting monthly B. germanica densities in Nanjing throughout 2025, providing a valuable reference for future surveillance and control efforts.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of chylous pleural effusion caused by liver cirrhosis.Methods:The clinical data of 19 cases of liver cirrhosis complicated with chylous pleural effusion admitted at Department of Lymphatic Surgery, Beijing Shijitan Hospital from Jun 2013 to Oct 2022 was retrospectively analyzed.Results:There were 12 males (63.2%) and 7 females (36.8%).Ten cases (52.6%) had right chylothorax, and 9 cases (47.4%) had bilateral chylothorax; Seventeen cases (89.5%) had concurrent ascites. Chest fluid examination: 3 cases were milky white (16%), 10 cases were yellow white (53%), 4 cases were orange yellow (21%), and 2 cases were pink (10%).There were 2 cases of exudate and 17 cases of transudate. By radionuclide lymphatic imaging, 9 cases showed increased radiation in the right chest cavity; One case showed increased radiation in the left chest cavity; Five cases showed bilateral chest radiation elevation. By lymphangiography,11 cases showed complete visualization of the thoracic duct, of which 10 cases showed obstruction at the outlet of the thoracic duct. The 10 patients underwent surgical treatment for the release of adhesions at the end of the thoracic duct, and the postoperative result was good. Six patients died during follow-up.Conclusions:Cirrhosis combined with chylous pleural effusion is rare in clinical practice and prognosis is poor. The laboratory examination of pleural effusion is an important basis for determining chylous pleural effusion. The lysis of adhesions at the end of the thoracic duct has a certain therapeutic effect on patients with lymphangiography indicating thoracic duct outlet obstruction.

Objective:To investigate the role of the IgG subtypes (IgG1 and IgG2a) in anti-glycoprotein (GP) Ⅰbα antibody-induced platelet clearance.Methods:Venous blood was collected from healthy volunteers, and platelets were separated. The phagocytosis of human platelets by human acute monocytic leukemia cells (THP-1 cells) induced by different anti-GPⅠbα antibodies (AN51, AK2, HIP1, TM60, VM16d, WM23, and SZ2) was detected by flow cytometry. The effects of the AN51 full-length antibody, F (ab') 2, and Fab fragments on platelet phagocytosis by THP-1 cells were detected by flow cytometry. Then, the Fc blocking antibody 2.4G2 and normal rat IgG2a or IgG1 were injected into C57BL/6J mice via the posterior ocular vein, and their effects on platelet reduction induced by R300 were detected by a hematology analyzer. Results:Compared with IgG1, the IgG2a subtype of anti-GPⅠbα antibodies induced the phagocytosis of platelets by THP-1 cells in vitro ( P<0.05). In contrast to the AN51 full-length antibody, neither AN51 F (ab') 2 nor the Fab fragment could induce THP-1 cells to phagocytose platelets ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, anti-mouse GPⅠbα R300-induced thrombocytopenia in mice was reduced at 2, 4, and 6 h after the injection of Fc blocking antibody 2.4G2 ( P<0.05). Similarly, R300-induced thrombocytopenia in mice was reduced at 2, 4, and 6 h after the injection of rat IgG2a ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:IgG2a plays an important role in anti-GPⅠbα-induced clearance.

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.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.
