Objective To evaluate the nutrition status and the prognosis of acute stroke patients with hy-pothyroidism during hospitalization. Methods The clinical data of 28 acute stroke patients with hypothyroidism (study group) and 28 stroke patients with normal thyroid function (control group) were retrospectively analyzed.Results After (10±4) days of hospitalization, hemoglobin and serum albumin levels in study group significantlydecreased ( P < 0. 05 ). The requirement of calories and protein, incidence of pulmonary infections, alimentarytract hemorrhage and diarrhea, and hospital stays were significantly higher in study group than in control group (P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion The nutrition status is poor in acute stroke patients with hypothyroidism, who were more easier to be suffered from clinical complications and worse prognosis.

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was considered as the third gasotransmitter,along with nitric oxide and carbon monoxide,with extensively biological activities.Considerable evidence showed that H2S was involved in inflammatory processes such as in inflammatory cells,inflammatory mediates,vascular tension and signaling pathways.Previous studies suggested H2S played a bidirectional role in regulating inflammation including pro- and anti-inflammatory actions due to different animal models.Further study about the role and mechanism of H2S in inflammation will contribute to efficient prevention and treatment for inflammatory diseases.
