449 Ketogenic diets—friend or foe?
Zhang Heyang,Shi Hanping
Diet is a convenient and quick treatment. The high-fat low-carb ketogenic diet has been used to treat epilepsy for nearly a century. Although ketogenic diet has been neglected by the development of antiepileptic drugs the related research on ketogenic diet has shown an explosive growth in recent years and it has been found that ketogenic diet plays a positive role in mental and psychological diseases chronic diseases and even tumors. However it can also cause LDL levels to rise making many doctors hesitant. This paper aims to introduce the effects of ketogenic diet on human metabolism from the perspective of glycolipid metabolism and intestinal flora summarize its positive effects in Alzheimer's disease depression diabetes obesity and even tumors and highlight the potential side effects of ketogenic diet providing new ideas for clarifying the potential application value of dietary intervention strategies.

456 The research advance on intermittent fasting to improve cognitive impairment associated with Alzheimer's disease
Ren Qiwei,Jiang Jiwei, Xu Ju
In recent years there is growing evidence that dietary nutritional interventions are important in improving the clinical symptoms and overall prognosis of cognitive impairment associated with Alzheimer's disease AD . Recent studies have confirmed that intermittent fasting IF can improve cognition function and AD-specific pathological change in AD mouse models. That offers a new opportunity for the treatment of AD. The clinical study has also shown that IF can significantly improve cognitive scores in patients with mild cognitive impairment. Despite a certain research base the understanding of the potential mechanisms and scientific principles of IF clinical application is still at a preliminary stage. It is not clear whether IF can improve the clinical performance of patients with AD-related cognitive impairment such as cognitive emotional and psychobehavioral symptoms. Therefore this review intends to explore the possibility and potential mechanisms of IF to improve the clinical performance of AD aiming to provide a new possible therapeutic idea and basis for AD treatment.

462 Cutting off the source of nutrients for tumor cells—the effect of low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet on tumor cell metabolism
Ma Yifei,Yang Nailong
In recent years the influence of daily diet on tumor progression has received extensive attention with the research on the nutrition method and metabolic pathway in tumor cells much deeper. It is generally recognized that compared with normal cells most tumor cells are highly dependent on the aerobic glycolysis based on glucose to obtain energy whereas unable to utilize amino acids and ketone bodies. Therefore it is proposed to cut off the nutrient source of tumor cells through restricting carbohydrate intake thus restraining tumor cells from growing and divising. This review aims to describe the nutritional and metabolic mechanism of tumor cells concisely and discuss about the effects low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet has on the apparence and metabolism of tumor cells from various perspectives.

474 Ketogenic diet treatment for polycystic ovary syndrome
1Dai Minhui,2Jiang Bo
Polycystic ovary syndrome PCOS is a prevalent endocrine - metabolic disorder primarily affecting women of reproductive age. It is an autosomal dominant genetic disease characterized initially by metabolic abnormalities followed by reproductive anomalies. Current genetic studies suggest that PCOS associated with metabolic syndrome can be interpreted as a unique manifestation of metabolic syndrome within the female reproductive system now referred to as Metabolic Associated Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. The key to treating PCOS lies in the improvement of metabolic syndrome. Currently the ketogenic diet is recognized as an effective strategy for improving metabolic syndrome managing weight and ameliorating PCOS. Emerging as a novel therapeutic approach the ketogenic diet has demonstrated significant potential in PCOS management such as regulating menstrual cycles reducing hepatic damage and elevating Vitamin D levels among others. We recommend implementing an optimized ketogenic diet treatment plan under the guidance of a physician involving stages of "flexible ketosis" "targeted keto withdrawal" and "balanced diet lifelong maintenance". It is emphasized that dietary plans should be individualized to enhance patient compliance.

482 Advances in the sensitivity and mechanism of tumor ketogenic therapy based on metabolic typing
1Tang Meng,2 Zhou Fuxiang,1 Cong Minghua,3Shi Hanping
Abnormal energy metabolism is one of the fundamental features of cancer. Although targeting cancer metabolism is a promising therapeutic strategy clinical treatment success depends on accurate molecular and metabolic subtyping. Recent studies have reported two metabolism-based molecular subtypes associated with cancer ketogenic treatment glycolytic glycolysis + / ketolysis - and ketolytic glycolysis + / ketolysis + which were manifested by distinct metabolic enzyme profiles and mitochondrial functional states and by different responses to ketogenic interventions in vitro and in vivo. Notably in p53-mutated tumors the glycolytic subtype was able to be converted to the ketolytic subtype upon glucose limitation rendering resistance to ketogenic therapy associated with upregulation of the ketolytic enzyme and mitochondrial fusion process. However the allosteric activator of mutant p53 can effectively block the rewired molecular expression and the reprogrammed mitochondrial metabolism by conjugating mutant p53 to a wild-type conformation thus maintaining a stable ketolytic-deficient phenotype. Based on the metabolic subtypes the target population of cancer ketogenic therapy can be decided and the sensitivity of ketogenic treatment can be predicted by the mutation status thus establishing a strategy of precise cancer metabolic modulation therapy.

505 Consensus on treament for enteral nutrition intolerance among patients with cancer
Chinese Society of Nutritional Oncology, Chinese Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition
A series of complications during enteral nutrition are called enteral nutrition intolerance whose main symptoms include abdominal pain abdominal distension nausea and vomiting diarrhea increased gastric residuals and loss of bowel sounds. The degree of intestinal tolerance to enteral nutrition reflects the functional status of the gastrointestinal tract and the severity of the disease to a certain extent and is associated with poor clinical outcomes. At present there is no unified standard for poor tolerance of enteral nutrition and it is usually judged by the combination of intestinal sounds and gastric residual volume. The timing of enteral nutrition implementation route of administration and mode of infusion may all have an impact on the gastrointestinal tract. This paper summarizes and recommends the treatment timing and means of poorly tolerated enteral nutrition in oncology patients based on existing studies and evidence combined with clinical experience.

546 Cumulative TyG index exposure as a risk for colorectal cancer a prospective cohort study
1Lin Yixin,2 Zhang Li,1 Zhou Jing,3Li Xinyuan,1 Dai Shilong,1 Zhang Qingsong
Objective This study aimed to investigate the relationship between cumulative Triglyceride - glucose index cumTyG index and the risk of colorectal cancer CRC . Method Criteria for selecting the subjects were as follows A total of 68 902 in-service and retired employees of Kailuan Group who had attended at three consecutive physical examinations in 2006- 2007 2008- 2009 2010-2011 and 2012-2013. According to the thirdtile of cumulative TyG the participants were divided into three groups namely cumulative TyG1 cumTyG1 cumulative TyG2 cumTyG2 and cumulative TyG3 cumTyG3 . CRC was the primary endpoint. Kaplan-Meier curve was used to calculate the cumulative incidence of CRC in different cumulative TyG groups and log-rank test was used to compare the differences among groups. Cox proportional risk model was used to analyze the impact of different cumTyG and used to exclude people taking hypoglycemic drugs lipid-lowering drugs and CRC events within one year on CRC. C-index and time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve time - roc were used to assess the diagnostic efficacy of cumTyG index exposure and single-measured TyG index exposure on CRC. Result At average follow-up 10. 13±1. 95 years the incidence density of cumTyG1~ cumTyG3 group was 4. 23 5. 56 and 6. 90 per 10 000 person-years respectively and with the increase of cumTyG exposure level the cumulative incidence of CRC also showed an increasing trend and the difference was statistically significant by og-rank test χ2 = 15. 31 P<0. 001 . Cox proportional hazards model showed that after adjusting for potential confounding factors the HR 95% CI of CRC in the cumTyG2 and cumTyG3 groups were 1. 20 0. 91 1. 57 and 1. 36 1. 03 1. 81 compared with the cumTyG1 group. People taking hypoglycemic drugs lipid-lowering drugs and CRC within 1 year were excluded Cox proportional hazards models and adjusting for potential confounding factors were repeated and the results showed that the risk of CRC in the three groups was increased by 34% HR= 1. 34 95%CI = 1. 01~ 1. 78 38% HR = 1. 38 95%CI = 1. 05 ~ 1. 83 and 36% HR = 1. 36 95%CI = 1. 02~ 1. 82 respectively compared with the cumTyG1 group. The C-index and time-roc results showed that the AUC value of cumulative TyG index exposure was consistently greater than that of single-measured TyG index exposure and tended to be stable throughout the follow-up process. Conclusion High level of cumTyG index exposure is an independent risk factor for CRC. CumTyG exposure has a better predictive value for CRC than single-measured TyG exposure.

562 Research progress on related factors of gastric cancer morbidity
1Li Yichao,2Wei Xinxin,1Zhou Fengjun,3Liu Na,2Wu Wenxia,3Wang Hongzhang
Gastric cancer ranks fourth in morbidity for malignant cancers worldwide. As a major tumor the factors affecting its incidence rate have always been focused. Many scholars believe that the decline of gastric cancer morbidity is most probably related to various factors such as life and diet habits. This paper mainly analyzes four aspects ①The reduction of Helicobacter pylori infection rate is usually matched with the decline of morbidity and mortality of gastric cancer ②The dose-response relationship between salt intake and incidence rate of gastric cancer has been fully supported by the literature ③As the duration of smoking increases the risk of cancer significantly increases ④For many years vitamin C has been considered an important factor in reducing the risk of gastric cancer. More influencing factors are still being explored and as we deepen the understanding of gastric cancer it will be of greater help to doctors and patients in the diagnosis treatment and prognosis of the disease.

567 Research progress of polyunsaturated fatty acids in improving skeletal muscle health in cancer patients
Xu Lamei, Gao Shuqing
Sarcopenia is a syndrome characterized by progressive generalized loss of bone spur muscle mass and function. Poor health maintenance manifested as a decrease in body weight bone spur muscle mass reduction abnormal muscle strength and decline in physical function etc. will enter and lead to muscle loss with a small amount of symptoms or even cachexia resulting in poor curative effect decreased quality of life and shortened life span. Studies in recent years have shown that giving ω-3 PUFAs and fatty acid intervention the effects of ω-3 PUFAs on anti-inflammation improving nutrient sensitivity improving metabolic flexibility and energy utilization are likely to change the bone status of skillful patients mechanisms. In recent years there has been more interest in intervention research related to less muscle loss in brittle people but there are relatively few clinical studies on whether ω-3 PUFAs intervention materials can improve the state of bone spurs in brittle people and there are fewer evaluation indicators involved. Various studies exist where results are inconsistent. In order to guide the standardized application of ω- 3 PUFAs in clinical practice this article reviews the related research on ω-3 PUFAs in modifying the skeletal state of myalgia patients hoping to establish a certain theoretical basis for the nutritional treatment of sarcopenia in patients with arthralgia.
