271 Research progress on the effects of amino acid and its transporters on tumor cells and T cells
1Zhang Zheng,2Qin Liqiang
Metabolic reprogramming is a marker of malignant tumor and can inhibit the activity of immune cells and promote the progress of tumor cells. Tumor metabolism reprogramming is important for tumor cells and immune cells. Amino acid metabolic reprogramming is one of the important steps in tumor metabolic reprogramming. On the one hand due to the high demand for amino acids tumor cells will upregulate the expression of amino acid transporters and accelerate the uptake of amino acids for their own rapid growth. On the other hand tumor cells can also utilize the metabolites of special amino acid metabolism such as tryptophan metabolism to promote the expression of immune evasion related proteins such as programmed death protein-1 in immune cells to promote the immune evasion of tumor cells. For T cells the uptake of amino acids can also be increased by upregulated the expression of amino acid transporters during the proliferation differentiation and immune response of T cells and the immune function of T cells will be enhanced. To understand the important role of amino acid metabolism in tumor metabolic reprogramming and provide the basis for the immune enhancement of cancer patients we review the role of amino acids and their transporters in tumor cells and T cells.

276 The effect of obesity on immunotherapy for cancer
1Fang Ruoxin,2Yan Ling,1Liao Zhengkai
Immunotherapy brings hope to cancer patients but the clinical outcome of cancer immunotherapy monotherapy or combined therapy is not ideal. Screening the dominant population is an important means to improve the clinical benefit of patients and reduce clinical complications. With economic development the proportion of obese people in China and the world is increasing which has become a public health problem. There is growing evidence that obesity may affect the efficacy of immunotherapy and it has become an effective feature for screening immunotherapy -beneficial populations but the mechanism remains unclear. The 􀆵 obesity paradox refers to the fact that obesity leads to immunosuppression and promotes tumor progression in preclinical studies via chronic inflammation the creation of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment disturbance of adipokines secretion and reduction of beneficial bacteria in the gut microbiota but the clinical studies show that obese people can benefit more from immunotherapy. In order to provide research directions and theoretical basis to explore the real impact of obesity status on the efficacy of immunotherapy in the future and to improve the efficacy of immunotherapy we reviewed the impact of obesity on the efficacy of immunotherapy from both clinical and preclinical studies and proposed possible explanations for the 􀆵obesity paradox .

1,2Wang Yu,3 Liu Ming,1, 2Jiang Hua
The main physiopathological mechanisms of malnutrition are disorder of digestion and absorption and stress-induced hypercatabolic state. Nutritional therapy is one of the essential treatments for critically ill patients. Enteral nutrition EN is the preferred route of nutritional support therapy. Proper EN significantly reduces infectious complications and better controls the blood glucose results in decreased organ failure and surgical intervention rate. EN may improve outcomes in these patients. Nasogastric tube as a simple bedside technique with low medical cost non-invasive simple and economical is the preferred way for short-term <4 weeks enteral nutrition. However improper use of nasogastric tubes can also lead to complications such as nasopharyngeal irritation ulcers bleeding catheter prolapse or blockage reflux and aspiration pneumonia. This article interpret the guideline on route of nutrition for Chinese adult patients covering the indications for nasogastric tube the use of prokinetic drugs the selection of nasogastric tube bore and the positioning of nasogastric tube are explained so as to provide the latest evidence-based medical evidence for the selection and rational application of nasogastric tube.

287 Interpretation of Guidelines for nutritional treatment pathways for adult patients in China nasointestinal tube
1,2 Li Ting,1,2 Jiang Hua,3 Liu Ming
Malnutrition is common in hospitalized patients especially in critically ill and cancer patients. Malnutrition can lead to further deterioration of the patient's condition prolong the length of hospital stay and even increase the risk of poor prognosis. Therefore nutritional support for these patients is very necessary. Enteral nutrition is the first choice for malnourished patients with normal gastrointestinal function. Enteral nutrition has been widely used in clinical practice because of its physiological and cost-effective advantages. Nasointestinal tube is an important means of establishing enteral nutrition access for adult patients. It is commonly used in patients with high risk of aspiration dysphagia dysphagia and severe traumatic brain injury after gastrectomy. Parenteral nutrition through the nasointestinal tube has the advantages of safety and fewer complications. Many clinical trials have also confirmed that the establishment of nutritional route through the nasointestinal tube is very safe and effective. Enteral nutrition via nasointestinal tube not only helps the patient's bowel movement and provides the nutrients needed by the body but also rapidly establishes an enteral nutrition route to increase the patient􀆳s energy intake thereby improving the prognosis. Recently the Nutritional Access Group of Chinese Society for Oncological Nutrition and Supportive Care released the Guidelines for Nutritional access for Adult Patients in China. The article summarizes the evidence and interprets the recommendations in the nasointestinal section of the guideline.

293 Interpretation of Guidelines for nutritional treatment pathways for adult patients in China surgical jejunostomy
1,2 Li Dihuan,3 Liu Ming,1,2 Jiang Hua
Early enteral nutrition is very important for surgical patients especially patients with upper gastrointestinal surgery. Early surgical jejunostomy is a form of enteral nutrition. Patients with digestive tract surgery can receive intraoperative catheterization and enteral nutrition can be given early after operation. There are tunnel jejunostomy Witzel jejunostomy Roux-en-Y jejunostomy needle catheter jejunostomy open stomach perform jejunostomy and laparoscopic surgical jejunostomy techniques. For patients undergoing esophagectomy parenteral nutrition has many complications and is not conducive to the recovery of digestive function after operation and it is recommended to establish an enteral nutrition therapy route for intraoperative jejunostomy to give nutrition therapy. Likewise abdominal surgery patients may also receive a jejunostomy tube during the procedure. For patients with pancreaticoduodenectomy a nasoenteric tube is more suitable than a surgical jejunostomy. For patients with severe malnutrition before surgery or who need radiotherapy and chemotherapy after surgery home enteral nutrition can be performed through jejunostomy to improve the quality of life of patients. This review mainly introduces the latest progress from the aspects of surgical jejunostomy technology and indications.

298 Consensus of Chinese experts on exercise therapy for cancer patients
Chinese Society of Nutritional Oncology Key Laboratory of Cancer FSMP for State Market Regulation Beijing Association of Oncology
The morbidity and mortality of malignant tumor are increasing in China the integrative oncology treatment strategy has become more and more important. As a part of integrative oncology treatment strategies exercise therapy has been confirmed its crucial role in the prevention and treatment of malignant tumor. Exercise can not only affect the tumor microenvironment inhibit or reverse some metabolic pathways but also prevent cancer occurrence by reducing the risk factors of tumorigenesis. The anti-cancer effect of exercise is reflected in many outcomes. It can reduce the risk of tumor metastasis and recurrence and improve the prognosis of tumor patients. Exercise can also improve the efficacy of anti-cancer therapy and reduce related side effects relieve tumor-related symptoms and improve the quality of life of patients. Risk assessment and exercise test are required before the implementation of exercise therapy to screen patients who can be subjected to exercise therapy. In particular based on four elements of FITT frequency intensity time and type the formulation of individual exercise prescription should also consider heterogeneous patients with different types and stages of malignant tumors and perform dynamic monitoring and adjustment in follow-up treatment. At present the practical scheme suitable for physical activity of tumor patients in China still needs to be further explored to make it suitable and maximumly beneficial for malignant tumor patients.

312 Expert consensus on the nutritional diagnosis and treatment of appetite loss in cancer patients
Chinese Society of Nutritional Oncology Medical Nutrition Industry Branch of National Association of Health Industry and Enterprise
Cancer patients often have decreased appetite due to the influence of disease factors and treatments methods such as surgery radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The lack of nutritional intake caused by decreased appetite may result in malnutrition and cachexia which in turn reduces the tolerability and efficacy of anticancer treatments leads to decreased quality of life and severely affects prognosis and survival of cancer patients. Accurate evaluation of patient􀆳s appetite and combined with nutritional risk screening and nutritional assessment during the course of the disease can identify the patients at nutritional risk as early as possible and give individualized nutritional support which is beneficial for improving appetite and nutritional status preventing or delaying the progression of the disease course and increasing treatment tolerability. It is of positive significance to improve the prognosis and quality of life of patients. In order to standardize the nutritional diagnosis and treatment of cancer patients with decreased appetite and improve the treatment effect this expert consensus is presented based on the existing research findings at home and abroad combining the expert opinions and clinical experience to elucidate the definition and mechanism of loss of appetite in cancer patients and provide appetite assessment tools such as anorexia / cachexia subscale appetite and symptom questionnaire and appetite scale and then give nutritional recommendations for cancer patients with poor appetite. We hope that the consensus release can improve the identification evaluation and nutritional treatment of cancer patients with decreased appetite by clinical medical staffs and clinical nutritionists and increase the clinical benefits of the patients.

Zhong Yangrong, Lu Songhua, Yang Changgang
Objective To investigate the clinical value of prognostic nutritional index PNI for predicting the survival outcome of non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC patients. Method The clinicopathological information and survival data of 150 NSCLC patients who underwent surgical resection in Haian Hospital from January 2017 to January 2019 were retrospectively collected and the PNI value calculated as peripheral blood lymphocyte count× 5+ serum albumin level. Receiver operator characteristic ROC curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of PNI. Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted and multivariate Cox regression analysis were conducted to determine the prognostic significance of PNI for NSCLC patients. Result ROC curve showed that the optimal cut-off value of preoperative PNI for predicting overall survival OS of NSCLC patients was 42. 6 and the area under curve AUC value sensitivity and specificity was 0. 766 95%CI = 0. 605-0. 928 73. 3% and 77. 8% respectively. Based on the threshold of preoperative PNI all patients were divided into high PNI ≥42. 6 n = 108 and low PNI group PNI<42. 6 n = 42 . By comparing the general information and clinicopathological features between the two groups we found that preoperative low PNI <42. 6 was significantly correlated with advanced age P= 0. 011 ECOG performance status P= 0. 041 and T stage P<0. 001 . Kaplan-Meier curves indicated that the 3-year overall survival OS of patients with PNI< 42. 6 and PNI≥42. 6 were 65. 5% and 96. 3% respectively χ 2 = 21. 922 P< 0. 001 . The preoperative low PNI was a predictor of poor OS in NSCLC patients.

385 Establishment of a nomogram model for pre-operative nutritional status of gynecological tumor patients
Zhai Yeying, Zhang Jing, Lu Yun, Liu Yan
Objective To establish a nomogram model for pre-operative nutritional status of patients with gynecological tumors. Method A total of 110 patients underwent elective surgery for gynecological tumors from January 2016 to December 2019 were selected as the research objects three days before operation the patients were divided into well-nourished group 0 ~ 3 points n = 44 and malnutrition group 4 ~ 35 points n = 66 according to the patient generated subjective global assessment scale PG-SGA . The clinical datas and blood biochemical indexes were compared between the two groups then multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the risk factors of malnutrition. Result Univariate comparison found that the patients in malnutrition group were older more of advanced tumors less of fat percentage middle and upper arm circumference MUAC handgrip strength hemoglobin and albumin levels while higher of weight loss and percentage in recent one month C-reactive protein CRP levels the difference was statistically significant P < 0. 05 . Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that advanced tumors OR= 3. 001 95%CI = 2. 124-4. 125 higher of weight loss in recent 1 month OR= 5. 201 95%CI = 4. 526-6. 329 and CRP OR = 2. 012 95%CI = 1. 320-3. 020 less of hemoglobin OR= 0. 562 95%CI = 0. 232-0. 859 and handgrip strength OR = 0. 324 95%CI = 0. 102-0. 667 were the independent predictors to malnutrition in patients with gynecological tumors P < 0. 05 . The nomogram predictive model was established and the area under the curve AUC of nomogram model for predicting malnutrition by receiver operating curve ROC curve was 0. 889. Conclusion Malnutrition is common in patients with gynecological tumors before elective surgery advanced tumors increase of weight loss in recent one month and CRP decrease of hemoglobin and handgrip strength are the independent predictors of malnutrition establishment of a quantitative nomogram model with strong visual effect and simple operation has a high efficiency.

390 Clinical operation and application of fecal microbiota transplantation
1Wang Yuying,1 2Shi Hanping,1 2Rao Benqiang
Fecal microbiota transplantation FMT has been successfully used to treat recurrent C. difficile infections as an effective regimen to improve dysbiosis. With the deepening of scientific research on intestinal flora FMT technology has also been gradually applied to clinical treatment of various diseases and has become a new treatment solution for improving digestive endocrine nervous and other systemic diseases. However there is no unified standard for the clinical operation and application of FMT. From the collection of fecal bacteria donors to the transplantation of flora and then to the monitoring of postoperative efficacy the selection of donors preparation of fecal bacteria storage conditions selection of transplantation techniques and postoperative supervision and management in various countries and regions all have different views or standards. This article refers to clinical and scientific research cases in many countries and regions in Europe and Asia combined with clinical experience and analyzes the procedures from donor screening collection and storage of fecal bacteria samples and selection of transplant surgery. The various schemes of FMT in current clinical application are comprehensively introduced and the advantages and disadvantages between different clinical operating standards are discussed. In addition we introduced and evaluated the indications and contraindications for the clinical application of FMT the occurrence of postoperative adverse events and the monitoring of postoperative efficacy in order to reduce unnecessary damage to patients' health by standardizing the scope of clinical applications. Finally the whole process of FMT clinical operation is summarized and corresponding clinical application suggestions are given. We expect to provide clinicians with a reference for FMT surgical specifications. We expect to provide clinicians with reference to FMT operating standards.

396 Advances in pyruvate kinase M2 in the diagnosis treatment and prognosis of gastric cancer
1Wang Daoyu,2Huang He
Gastric cancer is a malignant tumor with the highest incidence and mortality rate and low 5-year survival rate in China. Treatment of gastric cancer is mainly surgery combined with radiation and chemotherapy. Due to the inconspicuous early symptoms of gastric cancer and the limited sensitivity and specificity of the current traditional tumor markers it is difficult to diagnose patients with early gastric cancer in China. Therefore the diagnostic pathways of early gastric cancer the targets of gastric cancer treatment and effective prognostic assessment methods have been major concerns. In recent years key enzymes in the energy metabolism of tumor cells have received more attention. Pyruvate kinase M2 PKM2 a key enzyme in the glycolytic pathway is abnormally expressed in tumor tissues serum and other body fluids and is involved not only in the nutrient metabolism of tumor cells but also in mitogenic activation. It is not only involved in the transcription of MAPK but also related to phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase PI3K / protein kinase B/ the mammalian target of tapamycin mTOR PI3K/ Akt / mTOR signaling pathway and NF-κB/ miR-148a / 152 feedback loop and other processes and through the above responses promote the proliferation invasion metastasis and vascular tumorigenesis of gastric cancer cells and inhibit apoptosis of gastric cancer cells. Recent researches have shown that PKM2 can be used for early diagnosis treatment and prognosis assessment of gastric cancer. This study reviews researches about early diagnosis treatment and prognosis assessment of PKM2 in gastric cancer in recent years which provide insight for improving the sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis developing new treatment strategies and prognosis assessment.

401 Effect and research progress of soybean isoflavones on incidence and prognosis of breast cancer
1Zhang Riguang,2Yang Liu,1Chen Shaojun,1Chen Haihui,3Cong Minghua
The safety of soybean consumption in patients with breast cancer is still controversial. On the one hand it is believed that soybean isoflavones may stimulate the generation of reactive oxygen species and play a certain role in the initiation of breast cancer and the proliferation of cancer cells. On the other hand other studies have shown that after ingesting foods containing soybeans the isoflavone concentration in the serum increased significantly but the isoflavone concentration in the breast tissue changes little. At the same time consumption of isoflavone had no effect on Ki-67 a molecular marker of proliferative activity in breast tissue and the density of mammograms. Isoflavone intake has no adverse effect on the incidence of breast cancer in premenopausal and postmenopausal women but has the effect of preventing breast cancer. At the same time the intake of isoflavones had no effect on the proliferation of breast tissue. For breast cancer survivors after treatment intake of soybean and isoflavones had no significant adverse effects on prognosis and even had a protective effect on postmenopausal breast cancer patients. Therefore according to the epidemiological and clinical evidence obtained at present combined with the 2016 edition of Chinese Dietary Guidelines it is suggested that 10~ 25 g of soybeans or a considerable amount of soybean products should be taken per person per day and women diagnosed with breast cancer should eat soybeans appropriately. This article reviews the role of soybean isoflavones in the prevention of breast cancer whether it has an impact on proliferation whether it will affect breast cancer patients and the mechanism of soybean isoflavones on the pathogenesis and prognosis of breast cancer
