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 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.

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.

0.05). Beer's law was obeyed when methanol concentration was 0-0.07 mg/ml with the correlation coefficient r=0.986. Conclusion This method was accurate and precise, which was suitable for the determination of methanol in cosmetics containing ethanol or not.

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.

Recepteur d′origine Nantais(RON),a tyrosine kinase receptor ,is a growth factor receptor belonging to the proto-oncogene met family and has been proved to display abnormal expres?sion in many types of tumors. The RON receptor is activated by binding to the ligand macrophage stim?ulating protein,overexpression of the receptor,variants of the proto-oncogene and by point mutations of the kinase region. The downstream transduction of RON by mitogen-activated protein kinases and phosphoinositide3-kinase signaling pathways can help regulate the proliferation,apoptosis,migration and invasion of tumor cells. A better understanding of the mechanisms and related signaling pathways of RON activation in tumor progress and development will provide more information for the RON-based target therapy.

Objective To evaluate the effect of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) on hypercapnic encephalopathy syndrome (HES) induced by acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). Methods An extensive search of related literature from the PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane library, CNKI and Wanfang databases up to January 2015 was performed. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and case control studies regarding comparison of the effect of NIV and conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) on the HES were collected. Critical appraisal skills program (CASP) was adopted to assess the quality of the studies. Data including mortality, trachea intubation rate, duration of mechanical ventilation and complication rate were collected, and Meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.3. Results Finally, 6 studies were included with 225 subjects, among whom 112 were in NIV group and 113 in CMV group, and the average Kelly-Matthay score was 3. Compared with CMV group, the mortality [20.5% (23/112) vs. 32.7% (37/113), risk ratio (RR) = 0.63, 95% confidential interval (95%CI) = 0.40-0.98, P = 0.04], intubation rate [35.7% (40/112) vs. 100.0% (113/113), RR = 0.38, 95%CI = 0.26-0.55, P < 0.000 01], incidence of ventilation related complications [26.2% (21/80) vs. 50.6% (42/83), RR = 0.52, 95%CI = 0.34-0.79, P = 0.002] in NIV group were significantly decreased, and the duration of mechanical ventilation was significantly shortened [days: 7.1 vs. 16.2, standard mean difference (SMD) = -0.93, 95%CI = -1.39 to -0.46, P < 0.000 1]. Conclusion NIV could significantly lower the mortality rate, intubation rate, and complications in the treatment of HES induced by AECOPD under close monitoring.

Objective To observe the effects of butylphthalide on the expression of autophagy-related protein and mRNA in l-meth-yl-4-phenyl-pyridiniumion (MPP+)-induced SH-SY5Y cells, and to explore the protective effect and possible mechanism of butylphthalide to the cell model of Parkinson's disease. Methods The SH-SY5Y cells were divided into control group (A), MPP+group (B), rapamycin pre-treated+MPP+group (C) and Butylphthalide pretreated+MPP+group (D). The relative viability of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MPP+was measured with MTT assay, the morphology of SH-SY5Y cells was observed. The expression of microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)-II/I and Beclin 1 protein was detected by Western blotting. And the expression of LC3-II/I and Beclin 1 mRNA were assayed by re-al-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR). Results The viability rates of cells were significantly lower in group B than in group A (t=20.270, P<0.001), and were significantly higher in groups C and D than in group B (t>8.770, P<0.001), however, there was no significantly difference between groups C and D (t=2.270, P=0.064). The expression of LC3-II/I and Beclin 1 was higher in group B than in group A (t>6.647, P<0.01), and was higher in groups C and D than in group B (t>3.630, P<0.01), however, there was no significantly differ-ence between groups C and D (t<2.238, P≥0.05). Conclusion Butylphthalide could prevent the injury of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MPP+, which may affect Parkinson's disease by inducing autophagy.

AIM:To establish a rat hyperlipidemia model for studying the aortic expression of heat shock protein 22 (HSP22), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and the effect of atorvasta-tin intervention.METHODS:Hyperlipidemia model was established in SD rats.Afterwards, the rats were divided into nor-mal control group, high fat group and high fat+atorvastatin intervention group.The expression of HSP22 and TNF-αin the rat aortas was detected by immunohistochemical assay and the expression of eNOS was assessed by Western blotting.RE-SULTS:No detectable expression of HSP22 and TNF-αin the normal control group was observed.However, the expression of HSP22 and TNF-αwas positive in the high fat group and the atorvastatin intervention group.The mean densities of HSP22 and TNF-αpositive particles were significant lower in the atorvastatin intervention group as compared with high fat group ( both P<0.05) .The expression of eNOS protein in the high fat group and atorvastatin intervention group was significantly lower than that in normal control group (P<0.01).However, no marked difference of eNOS protein expression between high fat group and atorvastatins intervention group was observed.CONCLUSION:The expression of HSP22 and TNF-αin the rat aortas is increased in the hyperlipidemia rat model.This effect can be restored by atorvastatin treatment.The expression of eNOS in the rat aortas is decreased in the hyperlipidemia rat model, but this tendency could not be attenuated by atorvastatin.
