Malnutrition has traditionally been regarded as a global concern,especially in the developing countries. Malnutrition seems more prevalent in hospitalized patients, with potentially serious consequences, it may increase susceptibility to infection and mortality and lengthen the stays in hospital,which lead to additional health care costs. Along with the development of the screening tools,it plays an increasingly important role in the nutritional problems in adults. Recently several nutritional screening tools have been applied in pediatrics,but the lack of the universal acceptable tools is still a problem demanding prompt solution. This review aims to compare the nutritional screening tools that are currently available in clinic and their drawbacks in daily work.

AIM:To observe the efficacy, complications and ocular surface tear dynamics of the treatment for pterygium combined with conjunctivochalasis by inferior limbal-stem-cell transplantation.
METHODS: All 30 patients ( 46 eyes ) diagnosed as pterygium combined with conjunctivochalasis in our hospital from December, 2010 to December, 2012 with a mean age of 61. 2y (SD 7. 2, range 49-75) were subjected to observation. After excision of nasal pterygium, an equivalent size of conjunctival flap linked with corneal limbal stem cell from inferior limbus was transplanted to the exposed sclera. Afterwards, the inferior bulbar conjunctiva was trimmed and fixed onto surface of sclera and inferior corneal limbus. After one-year follow-up, the comparisons regarding vision acuity between pre-operation and post-operation ( 1mo later ) as well as ocular-surface tear dynamics changes including several indexes like altitude and integrity of tear meniscus, break-up time ( BUT ) , corneal fluorescein staining and chloramphenicol gestation test before and 3mo after surgery were made. The operative complications and the recurrence rates 1y after operations were recorded.
RESULTS: Median visual acuity was 0. 2 (0. 04-0. 6) before the operation and median visual acuity was 0. 4 (0-04-1. 0) 1mo after the operation. Of total 46 eyes in 21 eyes ( 45. 7%), visual acuity improved. No vision changes were found in other 25 eyes ( 54. 3%). Significant difference ( P<0. 01 ) of vision acuity before and after surgery was found. In addition, break-up time ( BUT) , corneal fluorescein staining and chloramphenicol gestation test and altitude and integrity of tear meniscus show better results 3mo after surgery than that of pre-operation, which showed statistically significant ( P <0-05). After 1y follow-up, 33 eyes (71. 7%) healed while problems in 11 eyes ( 23%) were relieved. The total efficacy rate was 95. 6%. Nonetheless, invalid surgeries were noticed in two eyes ( 4. 4%) that affected by recurrence of pterygium. The 33 eyes (71. 7%) affected by conjunctivochalasis was cured in terms of subjective evaluation and improved in 9 eyes (19. 6 %), but 4 eyes (8. 7%) exhibited no evident improvement in terms of subjective complains. Total efficacy was 91. 3%. The 41 eyes (89. 1%) were reported to be normal while 5 eyes ( 10. 9%) were revealed to be abnormal in terms of objective therapeutic evaluation. And this condition was so-call conjunctivochalasis recurrence with a recurrence rate of 10. 9%. No proliferation of granulation, narrowing inferior fornix and malfunction of eye movements was found.
CONCLUSION: Inferior - limbal - stem - cell transplantation to treat pterygium combined with conjunctivochalasis obtains better results. It proves to eradicate or relieve symptoms of patients effectively and ameliorate ocular-surface tear dynamics.

Objective To identify the molecular components involved in acquired methotrexate-resistance of human choriocarcinoma. Methods Methotrexate-resistant cell line(JAR/MTX) was derived from JAR cell line by exposed to intervally and progressively increasing higher concentration of MTX. cDNA microarray analyses of JAR/MTX and its parental cell line JAR were performed. Results JAR/MTX was established after one year with stable resistance. Its resistant index to MTX was 7.3. Nine genes were differential expressed between JAR/MTX and JAR cells. INSR,SLC1A3,SAT,HBB,and FLJ12443 were underexpressed and HS1,TXNRD1,TAGLN2,and EEF2 were overexpressed in JAR/MTX cells. Conclusion The cDNA microarray system showed that several alterations of gene expression were present in acquired methotrexate-resistance of human choriocarcinoma.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of postoperative infectious complications (PIC) after liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using evidence based medicine to provide a basis for prediction and prevention of PIC.Methods The fixed-effects or random-effects model was performed on studies on risk factors of PIC in HCC patients published from January 1990 to May 2015 by searching the PubMed,Embase,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang Data.Results Fourteen studies involving HCC 5 841 patients were included in this meta-analysis.The level of serum albumin was significantly lower in the PIC group than the NPIC group (WMD =-1.80,95％ CI:-2..79 ～-0.80 ; P ＜ 0.05) ; Patients with diabetes mellitus had a higher incidence of PIC than those without diabetes mellitus (OR =1.94,95％ CI:1.27 ～ 2.95 ; P ＜ 0.05) ; Patients with operation time less than 5 h had an decreased incidence of PIC than the other group (OR =0.31,95 ％ CI:0.22 ～ 0.45 ; P ＜ 0.05).Patients with blood loss less than 2 000 ml had a lower incidence of PIC than the other group (OR =0.30,95％ CI:0.19 ～ 0.48 ; P ＜ 0.05).Patients with blood transfusion had a higher incidence of PIC than those without transfusion (OR =2.83,95％ CI:2.04 ～ 3.93 ; P ＜ 0.05).Patients with postoperative bile leakage had a higher incidence of PIC than those without bile leakage (OR =3.79,95％ CI:2.06 ～ 6.96; P ＜ 0.05).Patients after primary hepatectomy had a higher incidence of PIC than those after repeat hepatectomy,but there was no significant difference between the two groups (OR =1.52,95％ CI:0.99 ～ 2.33 ; P =0.05).Patients with tumor diameter less than 5 cm had a higher incidence of PIC than the other group,but there was no significant difference between the two groups (OR=1.09,95％CI:0.76 ～1.56; P＞0.05).Conclusion A low level of serum albumin,diabetes mellitus,operation time more than 5 h,blood loss more than 2 000 ml,blood transfusion,bile leakage were risk factors for the development of PIC.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of peripheral blood parameters including immature reticulocyte fraction (IRF) in monitoring the hematopoietic recovery of patients with acute myeloid leukemia aftcr receiving consolidation chemotherapy with high dose cytarabine (HDAC).Methods The peripheral blood parameters,including absolute neutrophil (ANC) and platelet (Plt) counts as well as IRF,were measured by Sysmex XE-2100 automated hematology analyzer before and after consolidation chemotherapy with HDAC in 30 patients with acute myeloid leukemia.These peripheral blood parameters were further statistically analyzed and compared.Results Following consolidation chemotherapy,the median time to recovery for ANC,Plt and IRF was (9.2±2.5) days,(11.3±3.7) days and (5.0±2.6) days,respectively.In comparison with ANC and Plt recovery,IRF showed significantly early recovery (P ＜ 0.05).Additionally,ANC raised preceding Plt recovery (P ＜ 0.05).However,the median recovery time of ANC,Plt and IRF showed little difference among these patients further subgrouped according to FAB and risk based classification (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion IRF is an early indicator for the hematopoietic recovery of patients with acute myeloid leukemia following consolidation chemotherapy with HDAC,which could provide important clinical information to evaluate therapeutic efficacy.

BACKGROUND:Chinese herb, bushen yizhi formula protects at certain extent learning and memory in rat model of Alzheimer disease. The drug serum in this formula can alleviate neurotoxic reaction of nerve tumor cell NG 108-15 to beta-amyloid protein. In order to understand further the mechanism and compatibility of the formula, it is necessary to carry on the study on the broken formulas.OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of drug serum in subgroups of broken bushen yizhi formulas on growth and differentiation of cell model of Alzheimer disease and probe into the compatibility rule of bushen yizhi formula in view of serum pharmacology.DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment.SETTING: DME Center of Clinical Pharmacological Institute Affiliated to Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.PARTICIPANTS:The experiment was performed in DME Center of Clinical Pharmacological Institute Affiliated to Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January to August 2003, in which, 40 healthy male SD rats of 3 months old were employed and NG108-15 cell line was frozen-preserved.into the control, original formula group (No. 1 group) [shechuanzi (Cnidium monnieri (L.) Cuss), gouqizi (Lycium barbarum L.), renshen (Panax ginseng C.A.Mey.), heshouwu (Polygonum multiflorum Thunb.), danpi (Paeonia Suffruticisa Andr.) and bingpian (Borneolum)], kidney replenishment group (No.2 group) [shechuanzi (Cnidium monnieri (L.) Cuss), gouqizi (Lycium barbarum L.), etc.], group for benefiting qi and nourishing blood (No.3 group)[renshen (Panaz ginseng C.A.Mey), zhishouwu (Polygonum multiflorum Thunb.), etc.] and group with bingpian (Borneolum) removed (No.4 group)[Panax ginseng C.A.Mey.], heshouwu (Polygonum multiflorum Thunb.) and danpi (Paeonia Suffruticisa Andr.)], 8 rats in each group. The concentrated Chinese herbal solutions of every group were applied at 10 μL/g (equal to 6 g/kg of raw herbs) for gastric infusion successively,continuously for 1 month. In the control, the physical saline solution of equal dosage was used for infusion. Two hours after the last gastric infusion in rats of each group,the blood was collected from heart after anesthesia and the serum was sepaNG108-15 cell cultured in vitro was divided into 6 groups. In the control and model group, normal rat serum was contained in proliferated culture solution. In the rest 4 groups, the drug serum of No. 1 group and 3 sub-groups was contained.Simultaneously, beta-amyloid protein 25-35 in each hole was prepared to the terminal concentration 5 μmol/L (except in the control) and the culture went on for 48 hours.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:MTT method was used to determine proliferated number and survival rate of cells. Simultaneously, the ratio of neurite cells to total cell count and average length of neurit were determined.icantly than the control (0.520±0.022, 0.665±0.037, P ＜ 0.01), and that in every drug serum group was higher than model group, of which, the result vival rate of differentiated cells: That in model group was lower significantly than the control (58.4%, 100%) and that in every drug serum group was higher than model group, of which, the result in No.4 group was the most tal cell count: That in model group was lower significantly than the control [(42.95±11.42)%, (58.75±12.84)%, P ＜ 0.01] and that in every drug serum group was higher than model group, of which, the result in No.4 group was rite: That in model group was shorter significantly than the control [(356.0 ±109.0), (493.8±133.0) μm, P ＜ 0.01] and that in every drug serum group was longer than model group, of which, the result in No.4 group was the most significant [(486.8±79.2) μm, P ＜ 0.01].CONCLUSION: The drug serum in all of bushen yizhi formula and every subgroup inhibits at certain extent the injury of beta-amyloid protein 25-35 to NG108-15 cell, but the results of each group are various. The protection of drug serum to the cell in every group is in the sequence from strong to weak as group with bingpian removed ＞ original formula group ＞ kidney replenishment group ＞ group for benefiting qi and nourishing blood. It is to expect a further study on the efficacy of group with bingpian removed.

Objective To evaluate the effect of fingolimod(FTY720) on angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ)-induced renal oxidative stress in rats and its possible mechanisms.Methods Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups through random number tables:AngⅡ infusion group(twelve rats,infusion of AngⅡvia subcutaneous osmotic pumps),0.9% sodium hydrochloride solution infusion group(twelve rats,infusion of equal volume of 0.9% sodium hydrochloride solution via subcutaneous osmotic pumps) and FTY720 intervention group(twelve rats,intra-gastric administration of FTY720 besides AngⅡ infusion).Urine samples were collected for 24 hours every week.Blood samples and kidneys were collected when rats were sacrificed at day 14 and 28 d respectively.MDA and T-SOD assay Kits were used to detect the concentrations of MDA and T-SOD in serum and kidney homogenates.Renal pathological changes were observed by light microscope.The expression of Nox4 in the kidneys was evaluated by immunohistochemistry.Results Compared with 0.9% sodium hydrochloride solution infusion rats of the same period,AngⅡ-infused rats developed significant proteinuria.The concentration of serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,AngⅡ and MDA were increased(P<0.05),T-SOD was significantly decreased on days 14 and 28(P<0.05),the serum albumin was significantly increased on day 28(P<0.05),while FTY720 partially reversed these changes.The renal tissue of AngⅡ-infused rats presented mesangial cells proliferation,mesangial matrix deposition,tubular epithelial cells effacement,sclerosis and atrophy in part of the glomerular.FTY720 can alleviate these changes.Immunohistochemistry showed that Nox4 was primarily located in the distal tubule.The expression of Nox4 was significantly increased in AngⅡ-infused rats as compared with that of 0.9% sodium hydrochloride solution infused group rats,and FTY720 administration prevented the change effectively.Conclusion AngⅡ-induced renal injury could be attenuated by FTY720 via preventing oxidative stress.

Objective Investigate the relationship between thromboelastography and coagulation tests,and evaluate of two kinds of methods in guiding significance in cardiac surgery patients perioperative blood transfusion.Methods Analysis of 108 patients with cardiac surgery in September 2014-August 2016 treated in our hospitalwere randomLy divided into TEG detection guide blood transfusion group (experimental group) and coagulation test guide blood transfusion group (control group),Respectively on two groups of blood transfusion rate,different components of blood transfusion and transfusion effect comparison.Results Through the comparison of the heart surgery perioperative blood use rate guided by TEG and coagulation test,found the transfusion rate of experimental group guide cryoprecipitate 25.9％ and fresh frozen plasma(FFP) 33.3％ was significantly lower than the control group 68.5％,however,platelet transfusion rate was significantly higher than the control group of 57.4％ to 20.4％.There was no statistically significant difference of red cell suspension (RCS) infusion rate between two groups,but the RCS infusion quantity of experimental group(3.6+ 1.6) was clearly lower than the control group (5.8+ 1.9),and the FFP and cryoprecipitate infusion quantity of experimental group was obviously lower than control group(P＜0.05),too.Experimental groups of intraoperative blood loss,postoperative blood loss and rebleeding rate was lower than control group (P＜ 0.05).Concltsion That TEG guide cardiac surgery patients perioperative blood transfusion can reduce the use amount of blood products,and the prognosis of disease outcome is better than that of routine coagulation tests guidance.TEG can reduce the surgical complications and the bleeding amount,and it has great sense to guide clinical composition blood transfusion,so it is worth promoting.
