Objective To investigate the difference between structured triglyceride(STG)and Non-structured triglyceride(NSTG)in nutritional support for perioperative patients.Methods A nationwide survey was conducted through online questionnaire.The questionnaire consisted of four modules:questionnaire information,patient information,prescription investigation and postoperative observation.SPSS 24.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results Before and after parenteral nutrition(PN),the average levels of albumin(ALB)increased in both groups(P<0.01),while the levels of C-reactive protein(CRP)and alanine aminotransferase(ALT)decreased(P<0.01).The difference in serum triglyceride(TG)levels in the STG group was not statistically significant,while there was a decrease in the NSTG group(P<0.05).Generalized linear equation analysis of repeated measurements showed that compared to the NSTG group,the increase in ALB levels in the STG group patients was more significant(P<0.001),CRP and ALT decreases were more pronounced(P<0.001),but the impact on TG was smaller.Conclusions For perioperative patients with parenteral nutrition,STG supplementation can bring significant clinical benefits.STG should be used according to the organ function and economic situation of patients.

Background:At present,domestic guidelines and consensus recommend the use of nutritional risk screening 2002(NRS 2002)and patient-generated subjective global assessment(PG-SGA)for nutritional risk screening and assessment of patients with gastrointestinal cancer during the perioperative period.However,PG-SGA has higher professional requirements,complex content and time-consuming.In the current busy situation of medical staff,NRS 2002 is more used for screening alone.Aims:To explore the consistency of NRS 2002 and PG-SGA in the assessment of nutritional status and clinical outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal malignancies,and to explore the accuracy of screening using NRS 2002 alone,so as to provide guidance for the establishment of clinical nutritional screening and assessment standards.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 157 patients with gastrointestinal malignancies who underwent radical operation in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of Xiangya Hospital,Central South University from January 2020 to October 2022.Nutritional screening and evaluation were performed by NRS 2002 and PG-SGA scales and demographic data and nutrition-related laboratory indicators were collected to observe short-term postoperative clinical outcomes.Results:Patients with nutritional risk or malnutrition had lower body mass index(BMI),lymphocytes and prealbumin(P<0.05).The correlation and consistency of NRS 2002 and PG-SGA scales were good(r=0.728,κ=0.46)and the areas under the curve(AUC)for predicting postoperative complications were 0.691 and 0.702,respectively.In addition,nutritional risk and postoperative complications were significantly increased in patients with malnutrition(P<0.05).Conclusions:Therefore,gastrointestinal surgeons can only use NRS2002 to perform nutritional screening of patients and make corresponding nutritional treatment according to the screening results in the case of busy clinical work.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of single pass scanning using muti-slice spiral CT for polytrauma patients.Methods:Totally 60 polytrauma patients treated from January to November in 2023 were randomly enrolled in this study. They were categorized into an experimental group and a control group using a random number table, with 30 patients in each group. The patients in the experimental group underwent single pass scaning for the head, neck, chest, and abdomen, whereas those in the control group receiving separate scanning for various parts. Then, the noise, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and contrast-to-noise (CNR) of the CT images of both groups were recorded. Furthermore, the objective and subjective evaluation, volume CT dose index (CTDI vol), effective dose ( E), scanning time, and scan ranges of the images were compared between both groups. Results:Compared to the control group, the test group exhibited lower SNR of the head ( t = -5.47, P < 0.05) and higher SNR and CNR of the chest scans ( t = -5.95, -6.15, P < 0.05). Furthermore, the test group demonstrated decreased ED, CTDIvol, scanning time, and scan range, which dropped from 18.53 mSv to 13.81 mSv ( t = 3.29, P < 0.001), from 15.77 mGy to 10.59 mGy ( t = 4.48, P< 0.001), from 31.68 s to 10.97 s ( t = 6.95, P < 0.001), and from 64.92 cm to 45.21 cm ( t = 9.05, P < 0.001), respectively compared to the control group. Conclusions:Single pass CT scanning can reduce E, scanning time, and scan range in the treatment of polytrauma patients while ensuring the high quality of CT images, thus warranting wide clinical applications.

Objective To investigate the expression of bone marrow γ-H2AX in the patients with multiple myeloma(MM) and its correlation with the prognosis.Methods The patients with newly diagnosed MM in this hospital were selected as the case group,and the patients with non-hemopoietic system tumor without obvious morphological abnormalities by bone marrow smear and biopsy served as the control group.The immunohistochemistry was adopted to detect the expression level of bone marrow γ-H2AX in the cases group and control group,the image-Pro Plus(IPP) semiquantitative analysis was performed.The expression differences were compared between the two groups,moreover the case group was re-divided into the strong expression group and weak expression group according to γ-H2AX expression level.Then the relation ship between γ-H2AX expression level and the prognosis in the patients with MM.Results The bone marrow γ-H2AX expression level in the case group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05);the level of γ-H2AX expression in the strong expression group was significantly stronger than that in the weak expression group (P<0.05).Conclusion The level of γ-H2AX expression was higher among MM patients,and the over expression of γ-H2AX predicts the shorter survival time.

Objective:To investigate the survival and prognosis of B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) patients with TP53 mutation.Methods:The clinical data of 479 newly diagnosed B-ALL patients treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2016 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among 479 B-ALL patients, 34 cases (7.1%) were positive for TP53 gene mutation, and a total of 36 TP53 mutations were detected, including 10 frameshift gene mutations (27.8%) , 23 missense mutations (63.9%) and 3 nonsense mutations (8.3%) . A total of 34 (94.4%) mutations were located in the DNA binding domain (exons 5-8) .The average number of mutated genes in patients with TP53 gene mutation (2.3) and the group without TP53 gene mutation (1.1) were statistically different ( P<0.001) . The proportion of Ph positive and Ph-like positive patients in the TP53 gene mutation negative group was significantly higher than that of the TP53 mutation positive group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001) . The 3-year OS and EFS rates of the TP53 gene mutation negative group were significantly higher than those of the TP53 gene mutation positive group. The differences in OS and EFS rates between the two groups were statistically significant ( χ2= 4.694, P = 0.030; χ2= 5.080, P= 0.024) . In the multivariate analysis, failure to achieve remission (CR) after one course of induction chemotherapy was an independent adverse prognostic factor affecting OS.Of the 34 patients with TP53 mutation, 16 underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in the CR 1 state, and 2 patients with recurrence after transplantation obtained CR 2 after infusion of donor-derived anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells. Among the 11 patients with TP53 gene mutation who relapsed during consolidation chemotherapy, 6 received anti-CD19 CAR T cell therapy, 4 patients achieved remission and minimal residual disease (MRD) turned negative, followed by bridging allo-HSCT, and 2 of them sustained CR. Conclusion:Missense mutations are the most common in B-ALL patients with TP53 gene mutation, and the majority of mutations were located in the DNA binding domain. B-ALL patients with TP53 gene mutation should undergo allo-HSCT as soon as possible after CAR-T cell therapy has cleared the MRD after recurrence. B-ALL patients with TP53 gene mutation still have a higher recurrence rate after allo-HSCT, and the infusion of donor-derived CAR-T cells can achieve better sustained remission.
