The discipline of nutrition has been developing quickly in the past 30 years in China,and a number of scientific progress has been achieved.Some new discoveries have been unveiled in terms of treatment and prevention of liver carcinoma,colon cancer,and breast cancer by certain nutrients.Besides,the application of nutrition in the prevention and treatlnents of metabolic diseases such as obesity.diabetes mellitus and congenital malfcIrmation has been studied.Furthermore,academic achievements in the treatment of tumor and metabolic diseases by integrating nutritional therapies has also been made.The establishment of relevant organizations and institutes as well as the prosperous performance of nutrition education contribute to the development of discipline of nutrition in China.

Objective The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of exercise training on cardiac function and automatic nervous activity in patients with coronary artery disease(CAD) following PTCA or intracoronary stent implantation. Methods For this study, 37 CAD patients (28 men and 9 women; aged 56.23 ?11.16 years) participated in a supervised 8-week training program with 35 healthy controls(27 men and 8 women; aged 55.72 ?10.34 years). Cardiac function was assessed with indexes obtained during exercise testing using the standard Bruce protocol (submaximal gradural treadmill exercise) before and after 8 weeks training. Meanwhile, heart rate variability (HRV) was used to value the automatic nervous activity. Results After 8 weeks, the margin between maximal HR and resting HR (△HR=HR max-HR resting) was significantly broader (P

Integrin is a main factor that mediates adhesive attraction between the cell and the extracellular matrix,and it participates in the formation of new vessel lumens and the construction of the rete vasculosum by regulating endothelial cell adhesion and migration.The extracellular matrix is the ligand of integrin.Collagen and laminin's deposition form new vessel lumens.The vascular endothelial growth factor promotes the proliferation of endothelial cells,accelerates angiogenesis and increases the permeability of blood vessels.This review focuses on the roles and correlation of integrin and VEGF in angiogenesis.

BACKGROUND:White blood cells involved in the inflammatory response play an important role in deep vein thrombosis.E-selectin mediates the initial process of white blood cell and vascular endothelial cell attachment during inflammation.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the relationship between deep venous thrombosis(DVT) and plasma E-selectin.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Completely random design and linear correlation analysis were performed at Department of Vascular Surgery,First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University and Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory of Chongqing Medical University from September to December 2007.PARTICIPANTS:Twenty-seven cases of deep vein thrombosis,16 males and 11 females with an average age of(57 ? 15) years,were selected,who attacked within 3 days or with aggregated condition.METHODS:Blood samples were obtained at the admission of the patients.After 72 hours,a second specimen was obtained,defined by thrombolysis and anticoagulant therapy.Determination of plasma E-selectin by ELISA and the blood coagulation abilities and platelet count of the 1st blood samples were performed,including part-time activation thromboplastin,prothrombin time,and plasma fibrinogen.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:E-selectin levels before and after treatment,blood coagulation abilities before treatment,platelet determination and E-selectin related analysis.RESULTS:No acute pulmonary embolism occurred in 27 cases of deep vein thrombosis during the treatment.One case underwent routine Forgart of thrombectomy catheter,and of the other 26 cases,15 were significantly improved,and 11 were not improved after 72 hours.Plasma E-selectin levels significantly decreased after thrombolysis,anticoagulant therapy in deep vein thrombosis patients with clinical remission(P = 0.001),but the plasma E-selectin levels were increased in those with no remission(P = 0.003).E-selectin levels and platelet count of deep vein thrombosis in patients before treatment showed no correlation(r =-0.113,P = 0.576),and were not related to fibrinogen content(r =-0.050,P = 0.802),or part-time activation thromboplastin(r=-0.046,P=0.822),and prothrombin time(r=-0.080,P=0.690).CONCLUSION:Plasma E-selectin levels are positively related to deep vein thrombosis severity.

Objective To observe and analyze the characteristics and trends of the liver and gallbladder damage caused by long-term use of anti schizophrenia drugs through the observation of the abdominal ultrasound. Methods From August 2013 to April 2016, the patients diagnosed as schizophrenia and met criterions were enrolled in our hospital. The observation group I included patients taking anti schizophrenia drug for 3 to 5 years. The observation group II included patients taking anti schizophrenia drug more than 5 years. In addition, the control group recruited healthy person who were over 30 years old and had never taken anti-schizophrenia drug. The change in ultrasound of liver and gallbladder were recorded and analyzed. Results The rate of cholecystolithiasis, chronic cholecystitis in observation group II were higher than those in the other two groups (P<0.05), while there had no significant difference between observation group I and control group. The rate of pure fatty liver in observation group II were higher than those incontrol group (P<0.05), while there had no significant difference between observation group I and observation group II, and there had no significant difference between observation group I and control group. There had no significant difference among three groups regarding as the rate of hepatic cyst and hepatic cavernous hemangioma. Conclusion Long-term use of anti-schizophrenia drugs could increase the risk ofcholecystolithiasis, chronic cholecystitis and pure fatty liver .

Objective To investigate the change of serum resistin levels in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).MethodsPolysomnography(PSG)was performed in 58 patients with OSAHS and in 26 controls without differences in age and BMI.Serum resistin levels were measured by ELISA.Results(1)Serum resistin levels were significantly higher in patients with OSAHS than those in control group.(2)FPG levels were significantly higher in patients with OSAHS than those in control group.(3)TG levels were significantly higher in patients with OSAHS than those in control group.(4)Serum resistin levels were correlated positively with FPG in obesity patients with OSAHS、nonobesity patients with OSAHS and nonbesity controls group.(5)Serum resistin levels were correlated positively with TG in obesity patients with OSAHS、nonobesity patients with OSAHS and nonbesity controls group.(6)Serum resistin levels were correlated positively with BMI in OSAHS.(7)Serum resistin levels were correlated negatively with LSaO2 in OSAHS.(8)Serum resistin levels were correlated positively with AHI in OSAHS.ConclusionDetermination of serum resistin levels may be the predictors of the severity of OSAHS and it also contributes a lot taking measures to prevent and control the OSAHS complication occurrence and reduce the mortality.

The metabolic change in patients with the malignent tumor differs from that of patients without cancer.The development in energy expenditure of cancer patient was reviewed.REE in cancer patients is higher than that in the normal,although some authors argued that there were no changes in cancer patients. REE is related with many factors,such as the tumor’s size,status,type,location.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of intradermal needle therapy in treating chronic pharyngitis.Method Sixty patients with chronic pharyngitis were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by intradermal needle therapy at Lieque (LU 7) and Zhaohai (KI 6), while the control group was by Compound Borax solution plus Cydiodine Buccal tablets. The symptoms were scored before and after treatment, and the clinical efficacies were compared.Result The total effective rate was 93.3% in the treatment group versus 80.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The symptom scores were markedly changed after the treatment in both groups (P<0.01). The symptom score of the treatment group was significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Intradermal needle therapy is an effective method in treating chronic pharyngitis.
