Objective To explore ways to improve effect of antiretroviral therapy in acquired immune defi-ciency syndrome patients with comorbid malnutrition, in an effort to enhance quality of life and reduce cost. Methods 126 AIDS patients with comorbid malnutrition were randomly divided into treatment group ( n=63) and control group (n=63). Patients in the treatment group were given nutrition support besides antiretroviral ther-apy (ART), while those in the control group only received ART. After 3 months, the two groups were compared in terms of body mass index, skinfold thickness, CD4+T cell count and human immunodeficiency virus load. Re-sults The two groups were comparable before treatment in BMI, skinfold thickness, CD4+T cell count and HIV load (P>0. 05). After treatment, the treatment group, compared with the controls, had higher BMI [ (23. 23± 3. 15) kg/m2vs. (17. 25±1. 83) kg/m2], thicker skinfold [ (42. 9±6. 8) mm vs. (34. 5±5. 2) mm in males;(97. 6±17. 4) mm vs. (92. 3±14. 7) mm in females], higher CD4+T cell count (χ2=12. 573, P<0. 01), and lower HIV load (χ2=8. 683, P<0. 01). Conclusion Nutrition support may improve treatment of AIDS patients with comorbid malnutrition, as manifested in better BMI, skinfold thickness, CD4+T cell count and HIV load.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of different doses of methylprednisolone therapy for children with severe hand,foot and mouth disease (HFMD).Methods According to different dosage methods, 240 children with severe HFMD were divided into large dose group,medium dose group and small dose group,80 cases in each group.The three groups were given different doses of methylprednisolone infusion on the basis of conventional treatment:large dose group(5 ~10mg·kg· -1 d -1 ),medium dose group(3 ~5 mg·kg· -1 d -1 ),small dose group (1 ~2mg · kg · -1 d -1 ).Results The time of fever sustaining,panic ease,mechanical ventilation,duration of hypertension and heart rate recovery of the medium -dose group were (47.93 ±4.72)h,(45.54 ±2.42)h,(51.43 ± 6.85)h,(53.66 ±7.62)h,(52.45 ±7.84)h,which were significantly shorter than those of the small -dose and large -dose group(all P <0.05).The incidence of turning to critically ill and the rate of ventilator use of the medium-dose group were significantly lower than those of the small -dose and large -dose group (all P <0.05 ).The incidence of pulmonary edema and pulmonary hemorrhage of the medium -dose group were significantly lower than those of the small -dose and large -dose group(all P <0.05).The differences among three groups were not statistically significant in the complications such as hypokalemia,hypocalcemia and gastrointestinal bleeding (all P >0.05 ). Conclusion Medium dose of methylprednisolone in the treatment of children with severe HFMD has significant effect and less adverse reactions,which is worthy of promotion.
