Objective:The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the adequacy of nutritional therapy and prognosis in trauma patients.Methods:217 trauma patients were included.The nutritional therapy interventions were divided into three groups:low energy therapy (＜50％),moderate energy therapy (50％ ～ 80％),high energy therapy (＞ 80％).General data,hospitalstay,ICU stay,infectious complications and mortality were compared among groups.Results:The protein intake of high energy group was higher than the other two groups (P ＜0.01).High energy therapy was associated with reduced mortality and decreased length of hospital stay.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated that high energy therapy had a significantly higher 60 days cumulative survival rate compared with other groups.Conclusion:High energy therapy is more effective and associated with improved mortality and decreased length of stay.

Objective:To study the clinical significance of examining serum pyridinoline cross-linked N-telopeptides of type I collagen(NTx) and serum bone sialoprotein(BSP) in diagnosing bone metastasis of lung cancer and breast cancer.Methods:A total of 105 patients treated in the Oncology Department of Changhai Hospital were included in this study.Patients were divided into 2 groups:bone metastasis(n=50) and non-bone metastasis groups(n=55).The levels of serum NTx and serum BSP were measured by ELISA.Results:The levels of serum NTx and serum BSP in patients with bone metastasis were significantly higher than in those without bone metastasis(P

Objective:To examine whether the existence of the donor-and-recipient-derived DNA chimerism in recipient’s plasma can be a predictive marker for the status of transplanted organ.Methods:One hundred and twenty-six female patients who had been transplanted with male kidney were enrolled in the present study.In these female recipients,the SRY1,DYZ11st and DYZ12nd genes on the Y chromosome from the plasma were prospectively examined using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results:SRY1,DYZ11st and DYZ12nd sequences were detected in the cell-free blood (plasma) of 97 (77%) of 126 female patients with male kidney.The average time-span when the transplanted kidneys functioned was 8.7 years and 5.4 years among microchimerism-positive and microchimerism-negative recipients,respectively.The frequency of the patients who had acute rejection after renal transplantation was approximately 10% and 28%in microchimerism-positive and microchimerism-negative recipients,respectively.Serum creatinine levels in microchimerism-positive patients were significantly lower than those in microchimerism-negative patients.Conclusion:These results suggest that plasma DNA microchimerism is present in certain patients following renal transplantation and measurement of plasma DNA microchimerism using quantitative RT-PCR might be a useful predictor for the acceptance of transplanted kidneys.

The aim of the study is to provide an ideal animal model for the research in the field of molecular pathogenesis and experimental treatment of gastric carcinoma. By the microsurgical technique, 47 human gastric carcinoma specimens were orthotopically transplanted into the gastric mucosal layer in nude mice. Its oncogenicity, invasion, metastasis and morphologic characteristics were observed and the expression of oncogene P53, c erbB 2 and raSP 21 were assessed. Three models of human gastric carcinoma, were adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, squamous adenocarcinoma were screened from 47 cases of patients. The oncogene proteins were positively expressed and related to the growth pattern, depth of invasion and lymph node metastasis. Its ultrastructural characteristic was similar to the human original gastric cancer cells. These models are suitable and helpful for the research of the molecular pathogenesis, invasion, metastasis and experimental treatment of gastric carcinoma.

Objective To detect the level of serum melanoma-inbibiting activity (MIA) in patients with uveal melanomas, and investigate the value of MIA in diagnosing and inspecting uveal melanomas. Methods Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the concentrations of MIA in peripheral serum of 27 patients with uveal melanoma, 6 with melanocyte tumor, 7 with other ocular tumors and 16 healthy individuals, respectively. Results The concentration of MIA in patients with uveal melanoma was significantly higher than that in the healthy ones (16 individuals) and the patients with adenoma of non pigmented ciliary epithelium (4 patients), retinoblastoma (2 patients), and retinal angioma 91 patient). The concnetration of MIA in patients with uveal melanoma without scleral infiltration or remote metastasis was obviously lower than that in the patients with scleral infiltration or remote metastasis, but didn′t differ much from which in the patients with melanocyte tumor. In the patients with uveal melanoma without infiltration or remote metastasis, there was no significant difference of MIA level between patients with spindle cell and mixed and epithelioid cell. Conclusion The level of serum MIA may be an effective index in diagnosing uveal melanoma, which can monitor the metastasis of uveal melanoma.

Objective To research changes of the terminal height,the level of growth hormone,sexual development and record of formal schooling in Turner syndrome(TS).Methods In 213 cases TS were karyotyped,57 cases growth hormone exciting test were carried out,41 cases sexual development and record of formal schooling were followed up.Results 213 TS were karyotyped in 4 groups:Ⅰ,45,X,78 cases;Ⅱ,mosaicism,60 cases;Ⅲ,with various aberrations of structure of X chromosome,69 cases;Ⅳ,6 cases with Y chromosome.Average terminal height was(139 1?8 3)cm.Of 57 growth hormone exciting tests,growth hormone complete deficiency 16 cases,partly deficiency 30 cases and normal 11 cases.In the follow-up survey of 41 cases TS,record of formal schooling were mainly junior middle school,technological school and secondary speciality school.17 cases had differential degree sexual development and 24 cases had no.Conclusions The terminal heights of TS are markedly lower than normal,growth hormone is deficiency,learning ability decline,hypoplasia of sex gland.

Objective:To observe the curative effects of the combined application of domperidone, pantoprazole and hydrotalcite tablets in the treatment of bile reflux gastritis ( BRG) and explore the underlying mechanism. Methods:Totally 80 patients with BRG were randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group with 40 cases in each. The treatment group was received panto-prazole, hydrotalcite tablets and domperidone, and the control group was treated by hydrotalcite tablets and domperidone. The efficacy was observed in both groups after 4 weeks. Results:The effective rate of symptom relief in the treatment group and the control group was respectively 92. 5% and 62. 5% (P<0. 05). After the 4 week treatment, the gastritis healing rate in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group (P<0. 05). The improvement of gastric mucosal hyperemia, edema and erosion in the treatment group was better than that in the control group with significant difference (P<0. 05). Cholic acid in gastric juice and gastric acid se-cretion were significantly reduced in both groups after the treatment, while the reduction of gastric acid secretion in the treatment group was more notable than that in the control (P<0. 05). Conclusion:Pantoprazole can be used to control BRG, and the combination of the three drugs shows better efficacy in the treatment of BRG.

Senior citizens have many diseases related to blood stasis, which was often overlooked by clinicians, and thus affected the treatment of the disease. Through analyzing and summarizing of related literature in recent five years of senile constipation treated from blood stasis, we found that the blood stasis is closely linked to senile constipation. Blood stasis in the gut forms constipation, and constipation with the passing of time forms blood stasis in returen. Blood stasis and constipation often influence each other.

Objective To study the effects of modified Sanxiang Decoction on gastrointestinal transmission function of patients with functional bloating (FB). Methods Sixty cases of FB patients were randomly divided into treatment group (40 cases) and control group (20 cases). Treatment group was given modified Sanxiang Decoction, while control group was given placebo granules, one bag each time. Twice a day, taking it after mixing it with water. Gastrointestinal symptoms, 48 h GITT, and adverse reactions were recorded. Results There was statistical significance in TCM symptom scores between before and after treatment in the two groups (P<0.05). After treatment, the total score of abdominal distension, belching, anorexia and TCM symptoms of the treatment group were lower than the control group, with statistical significance (P=0.000, 0.000, 0.010, 0.003). The total effective rate was 82%(33/40) in the treatment group, 30%(6/20) in thecontrol group;the treatment group was better than the control group (P<0.05). A total of 30 patients completed gastrointestinal transit test, of which delayed 48 h GITT pass rate accounted for 54% (16/30). Compared with the control group, the 48 h GITT of the treatment group was more obviously improved than that of the control group with statistical significance (P=0.002). There were no significant adverse reactions in both groups. Conclusion Most of FB patients have the problem of abnormal intestinal motility. Modified Sanxiang Decoction can improve the symptoms of patients with FB, promote gastrointestinal motility, and improve intestinal transmission function.
