BACKGROUND:There are various reports on the effects of fish oil on lipid level at home and abroad.At present,the related researches domestically are carried on mostly taken rats as the animal model. OBJECTIVE:To study the influence of dietetic fish oil on lipid level of golden hamsters with hyperlipemia. DESIGN:A randomized controlled study. SETTING:The experimental animal center of a teaching hospital affiliated to a university. PARTICIPANTS:The experiment was performed in the Experimental Animal Center of Nanjing General Hospital from June to December 2001.Forty male golden hamsters weighing 70 to 90 g(bought from Shanghai Animal Experiment Center) were randomized into 4 groups with 10 in each, named as the control group,0.5 mL fish oil group,0.8 mL fish oil group and 1.2 mL fish oil group. INTERVENTIONS:The golden hamster models of hyperlipemia were established.Golden hamsters in the control group were treated with saline 1 mL per day,while in the 0.5, 0.8 and 1.2 mL fish oil groups, fish oil of various dosages was applied(0.5,0.8 and 1.2 mL per day) successively to observe the effects on lipid level. RESULTS:In the 0.8 and 1.2 mL fish oil groups, the levers of triglyceride(TG) were(3.91± 2.32) and(6.22± 3.81)mmol/L respectively,which were remarkably reduced as compared with that in the control group[(9.02± 3.90) mmol/L](t=3.46,P< 0.01;t=2.65,P< 0.05). The TG level in the 0.8 mL fish oil group was significantly different from that in the 0.5 mL fish oil group[(8.14± 3.84) mmol/L](t=2.92,P < 0.05).The level of cholesterol and high density lipoprotein(HDL) had insignificant differences(P >0.05). CONCLUSION:Dietetic fish oil acts on reducing blood TG,for which, the effect of the moderate dosage is the best. Its effects in reducing cholesterol and increasing HDL are not apparent.

Objective The aim of this paper was to develop the Mobile Nutrition Order System based on the technology of hospital information system to adapt the nutrition and food security management model in the new situation, so that the unified informa-tization management of diet for patients could be implemented by the Department of Nutrition. Methods The Mobile Nutrition Order System, with the functions of information entry, nutrition recipe, order making and data transmission, could be constructed by the com-bination of technologies between informatization and digital order. Results The automation of nutrition order in hospital was a-chieved, and the nutrition recipe and nutritional therapy could be realized in hospital, the effect was very obvious. Conclusion Since the application of Mobile Nutrition Order System, the labor intensity of servers has been reduced, saving working hours effective-ly.Meanwhile, the management of nutritional therapy was improved and the quality of logistics services in hospital and nutritional ther-apy ascend to a new high.

Objective To acquire effective clues for identification of environmental risk factors to birth defects. Methods Spatial autocorrelation statistics Moran's I and spatial hotspots detect method Getis's G statistics was used to identify birth defect risk factor. Results The different kinds of birth defects have different spatial distribution. Neural tube birth defects have the properties of spatial autocorrelation and different clustering phenomena in different spatial scales. Two typical spatial patterns were discovered in spatial scales of about 6.84 kilometers and 22.8 kilometers. Conclusion Using spatial autocorrelation probing technique, we find that there may be some common environmental teratogenetic factors which affect birth defects occurring ratio in the study area. By hotspots analysis of the clustering phenomena, the risk factors leading to birth defect were further resolved.

Objective To explore the significance of mediastinum drainage tube in prevention and treatment of intrathoracic anastomotic leak after esophagectomy. Methods The morbidity and prognosis of intrathoracic anas-tomotic leak after esophagectomy in 180 patients with esophageal or cardia carcinoma (group A) who used mediasti-num drainage tube in operation from 2006 to 2008 was studied retrospectively,and were compare with 154 patients (group B) without mediastinum drainage tube from 2004 to 2006. Results The morbidity of intrathoracic anasto-motic leak after esophagectomy was 1.67% (3/180) in group A,and 4.55% (7/154) in group B,but no difference between them(χ2=1.4807, P>0.05) were found. Compared to group B, the final diagnosis of anastomotic leak in group A was early [(6.7±0.6) vs (10.0±2.1) days after operation (t=2.62, P<0.05)] and the duration of fe-ver was short [(5.3±1.5)vs (43.0±20.9) hours (t=4.39, P<0.01)]. The prognosis of 3 cases in group A was well, who all recovered without operation and had shorten hospital days than group B [(23.7±5.9)d vs (45.3± 5.0)d,t=4.86,P<0.01)]. In 7 cases of group B,there were 5 cases underwent second operation,but only 3 cases recovered, the case fatality rate was 2.60% (4/154), higher than in group A (0, Fisher, P<0.05). Conclusions Although the mediastinum drainage tube used or not used in esophagectomy is unrelated with the occurrence of anas-tomotic leak, and the significance to use it is that it can help to discover anastomotic leak early, and control mediasti-num infection effectively without reoperation,and improve patients' prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the effect of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UC-MSC) transplantation on cognitive function in endotoxemic rats.Methods Seventy-two pathogen-free male Wistar rats,aged 180-250 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=18 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),endotoxemia group (group E),UC-MSC group (group M),and endotoxemia+ MSC group (group PM).Cognitive function was assessed using Morris water maze test.At 4 h before training on 2nd day of place navigation test,lipopolysaccharide 100 μg/kg was injected intraperitoneally in group E,the equal volume of normal saline was given in group C,UC-MSC suspension 300 μl (5× 105cells,the fluid was normal saline) was injected via the tail vein immediately after intraperitoneal lipopolysaccharide in group PM,and UC-MSCs were injected via the tail vein in group M.At 4 h after injection,Morris water maze test was continued.At 4,24 h and 5 days after intraperitoneal injection or injection via the tail vein (T1-3),6 rats were selected,and blood samples were collected from hearts.The rats were then sacrificed,and the hippocampus was removed.The levels of interleukin-lbeta (IL-1β),IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in serum and hippocampus were determined.Results Compared with group C,the escape latency was significantly prolonged on 2nd and 3rd days of Morris water maze test,the number of crossing the platform was significantly decreased,the percentage of swimming distance in 1 st quadrant in the total swimming distance was significantly decreased,and the levels of IL-1 β,IL-6 and TNF-α in serum and hippocampus were significantly increased at T1,2 in group E (P＜0.05).Compared with group E,the escape latency was significantly shortened on 2nd and 3rd days of Morris water maze test,the number of crossing the platform was significantly increased,the percentage of swimming distance in 1st quadrant in the total swimming distance was significantly increased,and the levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α in serum and hippocampus were significantly decreased at T1,2 in group PM (P＜0.05).Conclusion UC-MSC transplantation can improve the cognitive decline in endotoxemic rats.
