Objective To study the safe drinking duration of purified drinking water of water dispensers, the relationship between the sanitary quality of purified drinking water and the structure of the water dispensers. Methods 30 drinking water dispensers were collected from the market and divided into 3 groups based on the structural types. A following-up experimental observation for the changes of the microbiological indexes of the water samples from the taps of water dispensers with different structures during the different prolongating operating period was carried out. Results The safe drinking duration was ≤ 4 days for the purified drinking water sampled from the taps of the water dispensers with common type at the normal atmospheric temperature and ≤ 14 day for water dispensers with bacterial inhibition type. The sanitary quality of the purified drinking water sampled from the taps of water dispensers was associated with the structural type of water dispensers, but not the brands of water dispensers. Conclusion The experimental results of the water samples collected from the taps of water dispensers with bacterial inbibition type at normal atmospheric temperature was better in quality than those of common type. The water dispensers with bacterial inhibition type provided with hygienic licence should be better recommended to choice.

With the rapid development of molecular nutrition, the urgent demand of rationalizing and individual clinical enternal nutrition support was realized. The enteral nutrition was added with special nutrition substrate. The application of carbohydrate in enteral nutrition and the status of comprehensive use of polysaccharides were summarized in this article. Based on the study of traditional fiber in enteral nutrition(EN) , the application of marine polysaccharides on the diseases oriented EN was analyzed and discussed. So, new nutrition substrate from marine polysaccharides is proposed for exploitation of various diseases oriented EN. Therefore, the individual nutrition support becomes possible.

Objective To investigate the markers in early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing heart surgery.Methods Markers included serum cystatin C (CyC),and urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin(NGAL),interleukin 18(IL-18),retinol binding protein(RBP)and N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase(NAG).Twenty-nine cardiac surgical patients hospitalized were enrolled in the study.Serial blood and urine samples were collected immediately before incision and at various time intervals after surgery.The primary outcome measure was AKI.defined as a 50%increase in Scr from baseline. Results The cohort consisted of 29 patients aged(62.9±13.7)years,and baseline Scr was(73.2±11.9)μmol/L.There were no significant differences in demographics between cases and controls,while the aortic clamp time was predictably longer in AKI cases as compared to controls[(60.63±13.92)vs(43.00±9.20)rain,P<0.05].Each biomarker difiered significantly between cases and controls at least one timepoint.Optimal AUCs were for CyC at 10 houm with sensitivity (ST)0.71,specificity(SP)0.92,AUC=0.83(0.67-1.00),cut-off(CO)1.31 mg/L;NGAL at 0 hour with ST 0.84,SP 0.80,Auc=0.85(0.70-1.00),CO 49.15 μg/g Ucr;IL-18 at 2 hours with ST 0.85,SP 0.73,AUC=0.81(0.64-0.97),CO 285.65 ng/g Ucr;RBP at 0 hour with ST 0.75,SP 0.67,AUC=0.77(0.60-0.95),CO 2934.65μg/g Ucr and NAG at 4 hours with ST 0.86,SP 0.67,AUC=0.72(0.53-O.92),CO 37.05 U/mg Ucr.Using a combination of all the 5 biomarkers analyzed at the optimal time-point as above,an AUC of 0.98(0.93-1.02)(P<0.01)in this limited sample was able to obtain. Conclusions Application of serum and urinary biomarkers for the prediction of AKI in patients undergoing cardiac surgery is highly dependent on the sampling time.Of the evaluated markers,uNGAL has the best predictive profile.uRBP also shows similar predictive power.Combining all the five above biomarkers is able to predict significantly more cases,suggesting that the use of more than one marker may be beneficial clinically.

Objective To prospectively investigate the value of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in the diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) following adult cardiac surgery. Methods Twenty-nine hospitalization patients undergone cardiac surgery were enrolled in the study. Serial blood and urinary samples were collected immediately before incision and at various time intervals after surgery. The primary outcome measure was acute kidney injury, defined as a 50% increase in the level of serum creatinine (Scr) from baseline. Results Fourteen of 29 developed acute kidney injury. The diagnosis time point with Ser was at 24 (10, 48) h after cardiac surgery. By contrast, the concentration of urinary NGAL rose from a median of 3.42(1.60, 9.92) μg/L at baseline to 20.51(13.42, 50.02) μg/L at admission to ICU (P=0.006),and the median concentration of urinary NGAL in patients who developed AKI was significantly higher at admission to ICU compared with patients who did not develop AKI [20.51 (13.42, 50.02) μg/L vs 2.91 (0.72,8.61) μg/L, P=0.002]. As to urinary NGAL at admission to ICU, the area under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.824, the sensitivity was 85.7% and the specificity was 80.0% with a cutoff value of 10.95 μg/L. Significant correlation was found between urinary NGAL at admission and the levd of Scr at 24 h in ICU (r=0.545, P=0.002), as well as estimated GFR (r=-0.546,P=0.002). Conclusion Urinary NGAL concentration is significantly higher in patients developing postoperative AKI at the early time of admission to ICU, which may be a useful early biomarker of AKI after adult cardiac surgery.

Objective This epidemiologic survey aims to investigate the changes in prevalence and risk factors for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)in the elderly people who are living within Pudong San-lin region.Methods We retrospectively analyzed annual physical check-up data in 2012 and 2014 for elderly people living in this region (aged≥70years).Demographic variables including age,sex,blood pressure,body mass index (BMI)were recorded.Serum fasting glucose level was determined and liver and kidney function were assessed.Abdominal echo-Doppler examination was performed.NAFLD was diagnosed according to Chinese guideline on management of NAFLD (revised version).Results Among 2127 sub-jects with physical check-up in 2012,the occurrence rate of NAFLD was 27.46% (23.02% and 31.02%for men and women,respectively).Type 2 diabetes was detected in 224 subjects and 33.93% of them de-veloped NAFLD (26.73% and 39.84% for males and females,respectively).Among 1771 subjects who received physical check-up in 2014,the occurrence rate of NAFLD increased up to 32.29%,with NAFLD rate being 29.97% and 34.19% for men and women,respectively.In 185 subjects with type 2 diabetes, 49.19% developed NAFLD (47.56% and 50.49% for men and women,respectively).Thus,compared with the findings during physical check-up in 2012,the occurrence rate of NAFLD was significantly in-creased during physical check-up in 2014 for both male and female subjects of overall and diabetic popula-tions (P <0.05 for all comparisons).Further analysis showed that for 185 diabetic patients who had phys-ical check-up in 2014,systolic and diastolic blood pressures,BMI,and serum levels of fasting glucose lev-el,alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,total cholesterol,and triglyceride were significant-ly higher in patients with NAFLD than in those without NAFLD (all P <0.05).Multivariate regression a-nalysis revealed that BMI,total cholesterol and triglyceride levels were independent risk factors for occur-rence of NAFLD in diabetic patients.Conclusions This epidemiologic survey demonstrates a significant increase in the occurrence rate of NAFLD for the elderly people (especially with type 2 diabetes).Hyper-lipidemia,obesity,and hypertension are major risk factors for NAFLD in diabetic patients.
