Objective To investigate the effect of Ketosteril and low protein diet on nutritional status and renal function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods 60 patients with CKD were divided into two groups randomly. The patients were treated with low-protein diet (0.6 g?kg-1?d-1) in control group while the patients was treated with Ketosteril (0.2 g?kg-1?d-1) and low-protein diet (0.6 g?kg-1?d-1) in the test group. The intervention period lasted for 3 months. The body weight, MAC, MAMC and the serum ALB, PA, Tf, BUN and Cr concentrations in the patients were measured. Results Compared with the control group, the body weight, MAC, MAMC were significantly increased in the test group; the serum ALB, PA ,Tf, BUN and Cr concentrations were also improved. Conclusion Combination of Ketosteril and low-protein diet can improve the nutritional status and the kidney function.

Objective To explore smoking -related health knowledge and attitudes and their association with smoking behaviors among high school students in Shanghai. Methods With stratified random sampling, 9239 students aged 11~20 years old from 57 high schools (19 from each of primary, secondary and professional schools) distributing in whole city were investigated with questionnaire which self -completed anonymously by the students. The contents of the questionnaire included smoking behavior, relation between smoking and health, and attitude to tobacco control policies. Results Of those 9 239 students, there were 19.5% (male 28.2%, female 10.2%) of them who ever smoked; the total mean score of their knowledge and attitude to smoking and health-related issues was 54.42?7.274 (the maximum was 65), and the ratio of total mean score and the maximum score was 0.8065, the highest ratio (0.9767) was found in awareness that smoking was harmful and the lowest (0.3825) in awareness of tobacco control rules and regulations. The scores of each smoking and health -related knowledge and attitude were decreased with increase of cigarette number smoked by students. Compared with other high schools, the lowest scores of each indexes and the highest rate of smoking were found in vocational schools. Conclusion It was found that the smoking behavior was related with their knowledge and attitude that smoking was harmful among high school students in Shanghai. And the tobacco control and intervention should be mainly developed in students of vocational schools.

0.05. Fixed effect model analysis showed that the summary RR was 1.43 (95%CI, 1.36 to 1.90), indicating a higher risk of future coronary heart disease in individuals with periodontal disease compared with those without. Conclusion This result suggests that periodontal disease is significantly related with coronary heart disease, they may be a risk indicator for each other. However, we should strengthen the prevention and cure of PD and control the probability of CHD.

Objective To investigate the death cause of malignant tumors among Inhabitants in Liwan district of Guangzhou city. Methods Mortality rate, standardized mortality rate,Potential Years of Life Lost (PYLL), PYLLR, Standardized Potential Years of Life Lost (SPYLL) and SPYLLR were used to analyze the death cause of malignant tumors. Results The annual average mortality rate of malignant tumors was 198.81 / 105. Among malignant tumors, 1ung cancer taken the 1ead with a mortality rate of 63.08 / 105. The next sequences were as follows: liver cancer, intestine cancer, stomach cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer. The sequence of death causes was mostly influenced by gender and age. The sequences of PYLL rate of main death causes were: liver cancer (0.371%), 1ung cancer (0.353%), nasopharyngeal cancer(0.137%), intestine cancer(0.116%)and mammary cancer(0.090%). Conclusion The mortalities of malignant tumors in Liwan district of Guangzhou city decreased in the past five years while the rank of top 5 cancer sites kept unchanged.

Objective To investigate the survival rates of main malignant tumors in Nanhui district. Methods Total 5 783 cases, registered as new cases with malignant neoplasm from 2002 to 2004 in Nanhui, were followed up. Data was studied by survival analysis with SPSS 13.0 of life table and Kaplan -Meier. Results The average annual crude incidence of malignant tumors was 267.57 / 100 000, the World standardized incidence rate of 209.98 / 100 000. Cancer Incidence in the top five ranks followed by lung, liver, stomach, colon and esophageal cancer, the incidence was 43.06 / 100 000, 28.65 / 100 000, 26.82 / 100 000, 18.63 / 100 000 and 9.57 / 100 000, respectively. The difference of the survival rates between the top five cancers was remarkable. Survival rates of cancers among males from the lowest to the highest were liver, lung, esophagus, stomach and intestines. Survival rates of cancers among females from the lowest to the highest were of liver, lung, esophagus, stomach, intestines, cervical and breast. The male or female main cancer's relative survival rate droped along with the age rising. Conclusion The survival status was better in the patients with intestine cancers and female patients with breast cancer, but worse in patients with liver, ung and esophageal cancer.

0.05). Conclusion To adept the combined test of CEA CYFRA21-1 and NSE in lung flushing fluid is more sensitivity and more valuable application in clinic.

Objective To evaluate the secular trend of lung cancer mortality rate during 1981 to 2005 in Kunshan City. Methods The population-based registration data collected during the period of 1981—2005 were used to calculate the crude rate (CR), world age-standardized rate (WASR), five-year age-specific rate, truncated rate of those aged 35~64, cumulative rates of those aged 0~74, percent change (PC), and annual percent change (APC). The mortality rates by age, period/age, and cohort / age were analyzed and compared. Results The CR was 27. 88 per 100 000 on average, and was 43.19 per 100 000 for males and 12.56 per 100 000 for females, with a sex ratio of 3. 43: 1. The WASR was 22.52 per 100 000 on average, and 37.28 per 100 000 for males and 9.67 per 100 000 for the females. The truncated rate and cumulative rate of those aged 0~74 were 31.54 per 100 000 and 0.10% respectively. The PC and the APC were 144.56% and 4.08% for the crude mortality rate, and 23.57% and 1.01% for the age-standardized rate. Birth cohort and period data analysis showed rising of lung cancer of age-specific rate. Conclusion The mortality data demonstrated a rising trend in general in the period of 1981—2005 in Kunshan.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological trend and distribution of stroke mortality in residents of Tianjin, China. Methods The study was based on 102 718 died cases with stroke in Tianjin between 1999 and 2006. The death cause and the stroke typing were coded according to the ICD -9 and ICD -10. Standardized mortality rates were calculated for stroke and its subtypes, adjusted for age and sex according to the world standard population of the Year 2000. The age, sex and geographic distribution of the stroke and its subtype mortality were analyzed. Chi-square tests were used to determine the statistical significance of mortality trends and differences. Results Stroke mortality rate in Tianjin declined from 133.52 / 100 000 / year in 1999 to 102.52 / 100 000/year in 2006. Cerebral infarction accounted for more than 50% of stroke mortality. The stroke mortality rate for males (120.17 / 100 000 to 157.74 /100 000) was higher than that for females (84.87/100 000 to 109.31/100 000). Stroke mortality rates elevated with age (P
