If the items of dropdown are the names of multiple sheets of Excel, how to write the callback function is that the items are not written in by themselves, but obtained by importing Excel to read different sheets,Who can help me solve this problem, write a callback function or send a template?

When you import the file, get the sheet names and put them as the 'Items' of the uidropdown.
sheetName = sheetnames(fullfile(pathname,filename));
% dd = uidropdown(uif,'Items',{''},'Value',{''}); % Assume original is empty
set(dd,'Items',sheetName,'Value',sheetName(1))

Suppose your data in the excel sheets are all numeric data, you can use function readmatrix:
%uit = uitable(uif) % Don't know your uitable configuration
uit.Data = readmatrix(fullfile(pathname,filename),'Sheet',dd.Value); % Read the sheet choosen from the uidropdown
