Objective: To measure the glycemic index of foods contained low carbohydratesand discuss the relationship between glycemic index and the amount of fat, carbohydrate, protein and diet fiber from these foods. Methods: According to the method of Wolver,the GIs of these kinds of foods had been determined and caculated by using 25 gram carbohydrates as control because of the low percent(10%)of carbohydrates in foods. Results: The results of GI in 13 kinds of the foods were worked out and there was negative correlation between diet fiber and GI. Conclusions: The inference factors of GI are not the kinds of carbohydrate but the amount of diet fiber in these foods.

Objective: To apply the NRS2002 to screen the nutritional status of preoperative patients and investigate the nutrition support in the perioperation and clinical outcomes. Methods: 127 selective operational cases(including general surgery,thoracic surgery,gynecology and orthopedic) were recruited to adopte the NRS2002 which issued by CESPN in 2006,and the nutrition support,energy and nutriment in the perioperation,complications,length of stay and drug costs were investigated. Result: 30.7% patients needed nutrition support,with general surgery(28.3%) being higher than thoracic surgery(2.4 %),gynecology(0%) and orthopedic(0%).The nutritional risk in elderly,carcinoma,abdominal operation patients were 18.1%,19.7% and 18.1% seperately,which was higher than others(P

Objective To investigate the changes of inflammatory factors in the blood serum and their relationship with the immune status of patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis(TB).Methods A total of 97 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis were included from Feb 2003 to Oct 2005,57 of active TB,40 in resting period.Another 41 healthy people were used as normal control.ELISA and APAAP method were used to detect the level of TNF-?, IL-1,IL-6 and the changes of CD_(4),CD_(8)and CD_(4)/CD_(8).Results The levels of IL-1,IL-6,TNF-? were(15.3?1.3),(80.5?7.3) and(77.2?9.8) ng/ml in the normal controls,(33.7?3.6),(293.6?30.5) and(190.7?25.2) in the patients of active TB,and(18.2?2.1),(130.7?14.5),(87.5?10.2) ng/ml in the patients at resting period,which were highest in the patients of active TB.The ratio of CD_(4)and CD_(4)/CD_(8) was(32.3?2.9)% and(0.83?0.17) in the patients of active TB,lower than(48.2?4.4)% and(0.83?0.17) of normal controls.Conclusion The increase of inflammatory factors and decrease of immune activity were the clinical characteristic of patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis,which are of inverse relationship.

Objective:To investigate the effects of slowly release(SR) carbohydrate system on glucose and lipide metabolism in the elder patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods:The previous enteral nutrition was replaced totally or partially with Glucerna in 11 cases of elder patients with type 2 diabetes for 1-3 months.The changes in hemoglobin, lymphocyte counts, serum albumin, total protein, glycemia, postprandial 2 hours blood glucose,glycosylated hemoglobin, triglyceride, cholesterol, kidney function,electrolytes and the symptoms of gastrointestinal tract were observed.

Objective:To compare the nutritional status of inpatients after enteral nutrition (EN) and parenteral nutrition (PN). Method: A multi-center survey of 1 142 inpatients from the Department of gastrointestinal surgery, thoracic surgery, gastroenterology, respiratory disease, neurology, neurosurgery and the intensive care unit of 6 general hospitals in Beijing and Shanghai was adopted in this study. Body weight (BW), haemoglobin (Hb) and serum albumin (sALB) were compared before and after EN or PN respectively. Results: BW, Hb and sALB all decreased after the nutritional support both in EN and PN groups, but only significantly in BW and sALB (BW: -1.58?2.36 kg/m2 vs -2.09?2.66 kg/m2, P

Objective:To investigate the effect of vitamin E, selenium and quercetin on the expression of zf-9 mRNA of hepatic stellate cells (HSC) during early acute liver injury in rats. Methods:90 healthy SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: normal control, pathological control, VE 20 mg/(kg bw﹒d) + Se 16 ?g/(kgbw﹒d) supplement, and quercetin 50 mg/(kg bw﹒d) supplement through intragastric way for 15 d respectively. The normal control group was injected with normal saline, the others were given intraperitonal CCl4 once to induce acute liver injury model. The serum levels of MDA, SOD, ALT and AST were determined at 3 h, 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after CCl4 injection respectively. The pronase-collagenase perfusion of liver was used to isolate HSC, and the expression of zf-9 mRNA was examined by RT-PCR. Results: Serum levels of MDA were lower in VE+Se supplement group and quercetin supplement group than pathological group. Supplementation with VE+Se and quercetin could decrease the level of ALT and AST and down-regulate the expression of zf-9 mRNA. Conclusion:Dietary supplementation of VE,Se and quercetin could effectively down-regulate the expression of zf-9 mRNA in HSC during early acute liver injury in rats.

Objective To detect the opening of the myocardial mitochondrial permeability transition pores (MPTP) after intrauterine asphyxia in neonatal rats,and to explore the mechanism of the myocardial hypoxic-ischemic and reperfusion injury caused by the opening of MPTP after asphyxia.Methods Cesarean sections were undertaken in female SD rats at the 21st day after pregnancy.The uterine arteries were clamped for 30 minutes followed by releasing for 1 hour and the pups were allocated into the asphyxia group.The uterine arteries were isolated but not clamped and the pups were allocated into the control group.There were 30 neonatal rats in either group and all of them were sacrificed 24 h after birth.Serum cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTn Ⅰ) levels were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.The opening degree of MPTP was detected by fluorospectro-photometry.Myocardial ischemic areas were detected by TTC staining.Tissues from the cardiac apex were taken and the pathologic changes of the myocardium were explored by hematoxylin-eosin staining.SPSS for Windows 13.0 was used for statistic analyses.Results In HE staining slices,the myocardial cells in asphyxia group were disarranged and edematous.In control and asphyxia group,the serum cTn Ⅰ levels were (0.08 ±0.04) μg/L and (0.40 ±0.29) μg/L (P ＜0.01),the myocardial ischemic areas were (8.01 ±3.48) ％ and (42.50 ± 15.90)％ (P ＜0.01),and the opening degrees of MPTP were (118.10 ± 19.10) RFU and (79.40 ± 10.57) RFU (P ＜ 0.01) respectively.The serum levels of cTn Ⅰ,the myocardial ischemic areas,and the opening degrees of MPTP were significantly increased in asphyxia group compared with control group.The serum level of cTn Ⅰ was positive correlated with the opening degree of MPTP in either group(r =-0.384,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion There are myocardial injuries in neonatal rats after asphyxia,which represent as high level of serum cTn Ⅰ,myocardial ischemia and necrosis.Opening of the myocardial MPTP is one of the causes of myocardial injury.
