Objective:To summarize the best evidence for nutrition management of sarcopenia in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD), to guide the development of nutrition management programs.Methods:Using the 6S evidence model, literature on nutrition management of sarcopenia in MHD patients was electronically retrieved from databases and websites including UpToDate, Guidelines International Network, Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center Database, European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism, UK Kidney Association, PubMed, Web of Science, China Biology Medicine disc, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Data. The search period was from database establishment to July 30, 2024. After screening and quality assessment of the literature, evidence was extracted and summarized.Results:A total of 19 articles were included, comprising one clinical decision, six guidelines, five systematic reviews, five expert consensus, and two randomized controlled trials. Twenty-six pieces of evidence were summarized from six aspects of nutrition team establishment and counseling, nutritional screening and assessment, nutritional support, nutrient intake, nutritional monitoring, and health education.Conclusions:The evidence summary on nutrition management of sarcopenia in MHD patients provides a basis for implementing nutritional interventions. Evidence transformation and application should be conducted in accordance with patient preferences and the actual clinical context.

Objective:To identify the epitope of mAb15A11 which is specific against RA associated autoantigen cartilage oligomeric matrix protein ( COMP ).Methods: A filamentous phage library displaying random linear dodecapeptides was used to mapping the epitope of mAb15A11.After three rounds of screenings,40 phage clones were selected at random and sequenced.The specificity of phages was confirmed by enzyme immunoassays.Homology search by ClustalW2 and structure analysis by PyMol to identified the epitope amino acid sequence.Western blot analysis of COMP and ELISA analysis of COMP-derived peptides were used to confirm epitope′s characterization.Results: After repeated screenings using bio-panning method, 2 clones were identified, which interacted specifically with mAb 15A11.Homology search did not find succession consensus sequence within COMP molecular,which indicated that the epitope was not linear.PyMol Structure analysis identified the rationality of conformational epitope.Western blot analysis and ELISA of EDTA-treated COMP further prove an conformational structure of the epitope recognized by mAb 15A11.ELISA analysis of COMP-derived peptides demonstrated both disulfide bonds between 229 C-243 C and 237 C-253 C and every epitope amino acid of 232 G,238 H,240 H,241 A,244 V,247 R and 251 R were essential to the binding of mAb 15A11 with COMP.Conclusion: In this study, the potential B cell antigentic epitopes of mAb 15A11 was identified by phage display library.The epitope amino acids sequence and char-acterization were also recognized.It may have important theoretical value for the study of reaction mechanism of COMP antibody and antigen and may also show application significance in the detection of rheumatoid arthritis.
