Abstract:
Objective To analyze the development status worldwide of nutriology,so as to provide an orientation of its development in the future.Methods The professional articles published were retrieved by information research methods to predict the focal problem,and to provide the demand and presumption of nutriology development.Results In the past 5 years,some innovative concepts and technics were widely used in nutrition studies,such as nutritional genomics,nutritional proteomics and systematic biology,etc.These technologies made it possible to study the influences of nutrients on gene and protein expression,and reversely,the influences of gene changes in nutrient related disturbances in metabolism.Advances in clinical nutritional therapy provides patients with a variety of clinical treatment and the possibility of earty rehabilitation.At present,there are some problems in the fields of nutritional therapy in our country,such as a lack of resource of professional staff,imperfect education system,deficiency in understanding the importance of nutriology,and the lag of standardization and normalization of nutrition information.Conclusions The progress of nutriology in coming five years should lay stress on the parallel development of individual and nationwide health level.A series of studies in molecular biology and systematic biology will upgrade the national physical quality and the basic health condition of population nationwide.
