ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of parenteral nutrition combined with chemotherapy on immune function in patients with digestive tract malignant tumor. Methods One hundred patients with digestive tract malignant tumor were selected, and they were divided into the observation group and the control group by random digits table method with 50 cases each. The patients in control group during chemotherapy did not receive special treatment, and the patients in observation group were given parenteral nutrition support according to the gastrointestinal function during chemotherapy. The nutrition index, immune function index and T lymphocyte subsets after treatment were observed. Results The transferrin, prealbumin, IgA, CD4+and CD4+/CD8+levels after treatment in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group: (2.41±0.53) g/L vs. (2.15±0.57) g/L, (0.28±0.07) g/L vs. (0.20±0.08) g/L, (3.25±1.19) g/L vs. (2.85±1.01) g/L, 0.403±0.065 vs. 0.323±0.083 and 2.15±1.02 vs. 1.35±0.73, while the IgM in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group: (1.02 ± 0.35) g/L vs. (1.48±0.78) g/L, and there were statistical differences ( P0.05). Conclusion Parenteral nutrition combined with chemotherapy can improve the immune function in patients with digestive tract malignant tumor, and provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of parenteral nutrition combination with chemotherapy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of parenteral nutrition combined with chemotherapy on nutritional status and immunity function of patients with gastrointestinal cancer.Methods 100 gastrointestinal cancer patients were treated as research subjects,and they were randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group.The control group was not given special treatment during chemotherapy,while the observation group patients were given nutritional support according to the gastrointestinal function after admission.The nutrition indicators of ALB,TF,PA, immune function parameters IgA,IgG,IgM,T lymphocyte subsets and T cell immune function indicators(CD +4 ,CD +8 and CD +4 /CD +8 )were counted after the four courses.Results There was no significant difference between the preop-erative and after fourth courses of treatment(t =0.093,P >0.05)between the two groups in nutrition.Within group comparisons,data of Tf and PA levels in the observation group were significant different compared with the control group after fourth courses of treatment (t =3.302,P <0.05).After the first 4 postoperative course,IgM index was statistically significant(t =4.135,P <0.05)different between the two groups,three indicators within the observation group were higher than the preoperative level indicators,the difference was statistically significant(t =3.426,P <0.05).After the first 4 postoperative course,the CD +4 level was significantly higher in the observation group,the difference was statistically significant(t =0.087,P <0.05).Comparison between the two groups after the first four courses,the CD +4 /CD +8 level was higher than that of preoperative patients with a significant difference(t =3.359,P <0.05).Intra -group comparison of the control group,four courses of CD +8 was significantly lower than that of the pre-operative patients(t =3.265,P <0.05).Conclusion Parenteral nutrition combined with chemotherapy can improve the nutritional status of patients with malignant tumors of alimentary tract and improve the body's immune function, give parenteral nutrition support treatment and provide a theoretical basis for the digestive tract malignant tumor during chemotherapy.It is worthy of clinical popularization.
ABSTRACT
The clinical features of 172 female and 1 067 male residents with gout in the coastal regions of Shandong province were analyzed.The results showed that as compared with male patients the onset of gout occurred at an older age in the female patients,and there were less obesity and tophi as well as less alcohol consumption and medication needed in the female patients.However,comorbidity with diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease,as well as involvement of upper limb and other metatarsophalangeal joints were more prevalent in the female patients.
