As one of the major geriatric syndromes,frailty exerts adverse effects on life expectancy and quality of life of the elderly.Because of its importance,a number of methods and tools have been introduced for the assessment of frailty.Malnutrition,as an independent risk factor,interacts with frailty and is involved in its progression.This article reviews recent studies on frailty and malnutrition.

A novel method based on the separation and enrichment effect of magnetic beads and the fully complementary hybridization of two DNA strands was developed for highly sensitive detection of bacterial DNA using a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) with 5,5’-dithio-bis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB)-modified gold nanoparticles as reporter probes. Capture probe was immobilized onto the surface of streptavidin-enwrapped magnetic beads ( SA-MB ) through high affinity between biotin and avidin, by which the target bacterial DNA sequences that connected with the reported probe decorated AuNPs with DTNB and SH-DNA ( AuNPs@DTNB@DNA) were captured and loaded onto the magnetic beads by the hybridization reaction with the capture probe. Compared with previous methods, this design shortened the distance between particles by the ways that the magnetic beads tempted to nanoparticles aggregation, and produced the plasma resonance coupling effect, which increased the SERS signal significantly. The results showed that, under the optimized conditions and in the concentration range from 5 pmol/L to 5 nmol/L, the method performed a good linear relationship between Raman intensity and DNA concentration. The limit of detection ( LOD) of bacterial DNA was estimated to be 5 pmol/L. The method is simple and low cost, and can be used in the sensitive and selective detection of bacterial DNA.

DEC1 is a basic helix-loop-helix(bHLH)transcription factor involved in the regulation of cell prolif-eration;cell differentiation;lymphocytes maturation;circadian rhythms;immune response and response to hypoxia.Recent studies have revealed that the expression of DEC1 is abnormally high in various tumor tissues and cells.In addition;the expression of DEC1 in the tumor tissue is related to the malignancy of various cancer types.This paper;therefore;focuses on the relationship between DEC1 and proliferation;apoptosis;cellular senes-cence;invasion and metastasis of tumor cells;in order to elaborate the role of DEC1 in the pathogenesis and pro-gression of tumor.

Objective To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of bariatric surgery for elderly (age ≥ 60 years) or nonelderly (age <60 years) obese patients.Methods Literatures were researched using PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library from January 2006 to June 2016 with the key words including bariatric surgery,metabolic surgery,gastric bypass,gastric band,sleeve gastrectomy,biliopancreatic diversion,elderly,aged,over 60 years.The cohort study about clinical efficacy of bariatric surgery for elderly or nonelderly obese patients were received and enrolled,and surgical procedures were unrestricted.Patients with age ≥ 60 years and with age <60 years were respectively allocated into the elderly group and nonelderly group.Two reviewers independently screened literatures,extracted data and assessed the risk of bias.Count data were described as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI).The heterogeneity of the studies was analyzed using the I2 test.Results Eleven retrospective studies were enrolled in the Meta analysis,and the total sample size was 9 913 patients,including 792 in the elderly group and 9121 in the nonelderly group.The results of Meta analysis showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the early mortality,incidence of postoperative early complication,remission rates of postoperative diabetes,postoperative hypertension,dyslipidemia and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome between elderly group and nonelderly group (OR =3.31,1.94,1.00,0.61,0.99,1.40,95 % CI:0.86-12.77,1.01-3.74,0.66-1.50,0.34-1.10,0.42-2.29,0.72-2.72,P>0.05).Conclusion The safety and clinical efficacy of bariatric surgery in the elderly obese patients are equivalent to that of nonelderly patients.

Mild cognitive impairment caused by craniocerebral trauma is the key points and difficulties in judicial authentication. This article has comparative analysis of each mode of event-related potential (classical Oddball, Eriksen flanker task and so on), which can provide a more objective method for such craniocerebral trauma cases in clinical forensic judicial authentication.
