Election and evaluation of nutritional tool for elderly patients of digestive surgery during perioperative period
Zhou Jianping,Dong Ming
The morbidity of the elders with chronic diseases increased obviously. Tumor - related deaths have compromised to 28. 6% of all - cause deaths for elder population. Patients over 65 years old have occupied a ratio about 25% - 33% of all the hospitalized patients in department of surgery. Meanwhile surgery-related complications mortality re-admission rate and commercial burden all increased significantly. For this reason choosing adequate tools aiming at the aged patients for the nutritional screening and evaluation before operation and predicting surgery - related risks and outcomes will contribute crucially to reduce the morbidity of post-operative complications and mortality while enhance prehabilitation efficiently further save medical resources and improve the efficiency of society. This article introduced the circumstance of graying society in China and the evaluations of nutrition tools which aim at elderly patients in Department of Digestive Surgery for prediction perioperative risks and outcomes. Several single -centered researches have implicated that geriatric nutritional risk index GNRI played a positive role in predicting the perioperative risks and outcomes of elderly patients with colorectal cancer or hepatic cell carcinoma. To be specific GNRI may actually be beneficial to evaluate pre - operatively nutritional status and predict the risks of severely surgery - related complications overall survival and recurrence-free or progression - free survival. Five meta - analyses studies searched at present elucidated a common conclusion in consistent with the single-centered researches mentioned above. However the four articles all emphasized that the original researches included in analysis were mostly retrospective designed which means limited sample sizes and high heterogeneity in integrated data. Therefore it still needs efforts of our fellows in surgery to conduct multi-centered prospective well-designed clinical study to evaluate GNRI tools objectively.

Strategy of perioperative nutrition therapy for pancreatic cancer
Zheng Xin, Sun Bei
Patients with pancreatic cancer are susceptible to perioperative malnutrition. Preoperative malnutrition factors include pancreatic insufficiency and tumor-induced metabolic changes postoperative stress and inflammation increase the risk of short-term nutritional deterioration and perioperative malnutrition is an independent risk factor for overall poor prognosis so it is necessary to carry out a comprehensive nutritional management. Nutritional screening is routinely performed after admission and quantitative nutritional screening tools can be used to determine the nutritional risk. Further nutritional assessment is required for patients with higher nutritional risk. Enhanced recovery after surgery suggests that nutritional therapy should be performed for patients who have lost more than 15% of their body weight or have a body mass index of less than 18. 5 kg / m 2 before surgery and nutritional therapy should be based on the principle of stepwise escalation. The preoperative nutritional status will affect the timing of surgery. A single indicator cannot completely describe the nutritional status of postoperative patients and it is recommended to use multiple methods to dynamically monitor the nutritional status and analyze it comprehensively. Postoperative nutritional therapy should be individualized in accordance with the patient 's condition and nutritional status and a reasonable choice of nutritional support pathway can avoid additional pain and economic burden for patients. Early oral feeding is considered to be safe and effective but artificial nutrition should be initiated in time for patients with poor oral tolerance. Enteral nutrition has advantages such as maintaining intestinal function but total parenteral nutrition is of great value in the treatment of severe intestinal fistula delayed gastric emptying and other complications.

Advances in nutritional therapy for complicated intra-abdominal infection
1Meng Meng,2Guan Guoxin,2Luo Fuwen
Complicated intra-abdominal infection cIAI as a common infectious disease in surgery is characterized by difficult treatment complex and variable condition high prevalence and high mortality rate often combined with gastrointestinal dysfunction reduced intestinal mucosal barrier function intestinal flora imbalance and loss of nutrients which seriously affects the patient 's prognosis. In recent years with the continuous development of diagnosis and treatment technology the survival rate of patients has been improved but there are still more complications and long hospitalization time. In this context nutritional therapy has become an important means of supplementing drug therapy and surgical intervention. As clinical nutrition continues to advance nutritional therapy strategies are being developed and optimized and clinicians are gradually taking the concept of nutritional therapy deeper and deeper into their hearts. Early nutritional support has been shown to improve patients ' nutritional status enhance immunity promote postoperative recovery and reduce complications and mortality. Individualized nutritional protocols are nutritional treatment plans based on patients' individual differences including their conditions nutritional status and tolerance which can more effectively improve patients' nutritional status and therapeutic effects. Overall nutritional support has an important role in the treatment of cIAI but there are still some controversies and challenges such as accurately assessing the nutritional needs of patients choosing the most suitable nutritional therapy and preventing complications of nutritional therapy. In the future with the advancement of research technology and the accumulation of clinical experience the application of nutritional therapy in complex abdominal infections will hopefully make more progress.

Research progress of artificial intelligence-based imaging evaluation in tumor-associated sarcopenia
Song He, Zhou Jianping
Sarcopenia is a syndrome of progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength resulting in physical disability reduced quality of life and death. Sarcopenia is common in the elderly and patients with cancer. Tumor combined with sarcopenia often occurs in the solid tumors such as gastrointestinal cancers head and neck cancers breast cancers and lung cancers. Due to frequent morbidity tumor combined with sarcopenia is highly correlated with adverse reaction of radiation therapy and chemotherapy and also with perioperative complications and diagnosis. Diagnostic methods for sarcopenia can be divided into non - imaging and imaging tests. At present studies on imaging evaluation and diagnosis of tumor - associated sarcopenia have been carried out extensively. Traditional diagnostic methods are cumbersome time-consuming and laborious. With the development of computer science in recent years the method of artificial intelligence driven by massive data computing power and algorithms can quickly and accurately accomplish imaging evaluation. This article reviews the specific imaging methods for the assessment of tumor-associated sarcopenia the advantages and disadvantages of AI - assisted assessment methods and the results of meta - studies. The aim is to clarify the important clinical value and application prospect of artificial intelligence method in evaluating tumor-associated sarcopenia provide a basis for further large-scale clinical studies and increase clinicians' attention to AI-related evaluation.

Expert consensus on tumor-associated diarrhea
Chinese Society of Nutritional Oncology, Chinese Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition
Cancer patients with diarrhea seriously affect their quality of life and treatment effect and even life - threatening. Diarrhea can be caused by tumor itself but also by various treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy targeted drugs immunotherapy intestinal infection drugs tumor surgery enteral nutrition and other factors. The clinical manifestations of tumor-associated diarrhea are mainly divided into the following three types gastrointestinal symptoms systemic intoxication symptoms and water electrolyte and acid-base balance disorders. Classifying these symptoms as " uncomplicated" or " complex" can help to determine the appropriate treatments. For patients with uncomplicated tumor - associated diarrhea of grade 1 or 2 and no other complications conservative treatments such as health education oral rehydration and antidiarrheal therapy is preferred. Complex tumor-associated diarrhea including grade 1 or 2 diarrhea with risk factors such as moderate to severe cramping ≥ grade 2 nausea and vomiting fever sepsis gastrointestinal bleeding etc. grade 3 or 4 diarrhea requires hospitalization and further evaluation of the condition and close monitoring of vital signs and can be actively treated with maintenance basic glucose and electrolyte infusion. A multidisciplinary team including gastroenterologists should conduct the assessment.

Objective Using biological impedance analysis to monitor the body composition through the peri - radiation period. Exploring the relationship between the changes in body composition and its relationship with myelosuppression. Method A total of 60 patients with head and neck tumors in our hospital were selected from September 2022 to March 2023. The patients were collected biochemical indicators and body composition before radiotherapy 2 weeks of radiotherapy 4 weeks of radiotherapy. According to myelosuppression occurs we compared the difference in body composition of the two groups with the radiotherapy time. Computing the risk ratio of PA phase angle with myelosuppression. Comparing patients' white blood cells neutral granulocytes platelets and hemoglobin changes in low PA group and normal PA group with radiotherapy time. Result All patients' body composition have significantly decreased during radiotherapy P<0. 05 . For the myelosuppression group the contents of fat mass and visceral fat area were higher than the normal group P<0. 05 and other related indicators were lower P<0. 05 . Compared with normal PA group hemoglobin and white blood cells were lower than the normal PA group P<0. 05 and the risk of myelosuppression in low PA group is higher OR= 3. 75 95%CI = 1. 27-9. 83 . Conclusion With the progress of radiotherapy the body composition of each human will be attenuated. However the body composition measurement data of patients with myelosuppression were worse. PA of patients with head and neck tumors are closely related to myelosuppression and low PA patients are more likely to cause myelosuppression. Monitoring PA can detect the potential risk of myelosuppression which helps to conduct nutritional intervention in time and improve prognosis.

The linear relationships between serum Cr/ CysC ratio and various nutritional parameters were determined by the Pearson's correlation coefficient and the receiver operating characteristics ROC curve was used to evaluate its predictive value for sarcopenia. Result 46 34. 3% of 134 advanced NSCLC patients were diagnosed with sarcopenia which was found in 35 males 33. 0% and 11 females 39. 3% . Serum Cr/ CysC ratio was positively correlated with with serum albumin value r = 0. 186 P = 0. 032 SMI r = 0. 288 P = 0. 020 and handgrip strength r = 0. 362 P < 0. 001 . The ROC curve showed that the best threshold of serum Cr/ CysC ratio was 0. 872 and its AUC value was 0. 744 95%CI = 0. 660-0. 829 with a sensitivity of 84. 8% and specificity of 61. 4% respectively. The serum Cr/ CysC ratio OR= 0. 005 95%CI = 0. 001-0. 061 P<0. 001 was identified as a protect risk factor of sarcopenia for advanced NSCLC patients. Conclusion The serum Cr/ CysC ratio was significantly correlated with skeletal muscle mass and muscle strength and it could be a simple and effective tool of sarcopenia screening for advanced NSCLC patients.

Value of controlling nutritional status score and related indicators in predicting the prognosis of osteosarcoma patients
1He Haiyan,1Liu Youping,1Zhang Rui,2Li Juan,1Peng Guolin
Objective To discuss the value of controlling nutritional status score CONUT and related indicators in predicting the prognosis of osteosarcoma patients. Method From 2000 to 2018 medical records of 92 patients with osteosarcoma were collected from the First Peoples' Hospital of Yibin and the Second Hospital of Yibin and followed up the clinical outcomes of patients until Dec. 30 2022. ROC curve analysis was used to calculate the cut-off values of SII and CONUT for prognosis prediction Kaplan-Meier method Log-rank test and Cox regression analysis was used to draw survival curves and analyze the influencing factors of prognosis among osteosarcoma patients. Result The medium follow-up time of 92 patients was 58 37 66 months with an medium survival time of 50 23 61 months. The 5-year survival rate was 51. 09% 95%CI = 40. 31%-61. 87% . The area under the ROC curves AUC of SII and CONUT were 0. 726 and 0. 951 respectively with the optimal cut-off values of 671. 66×10 9 / L and 1. 5 points P<0. 01 . Cox regression showed that whether metastasis when diagnosis T stage 3 to 4 and Enneking stage Ⅲ are risk factors of prognosis for patients with HR 95% CI of 2. 751 1. 166 - 6. 491 2. 230 1. 033 - 4. 815 and 4. 889 1. 094 - 21. 854 respectively. CONUT≥2 points are protective factors of prognosis with HR 95%CI of 0. 065 0. 023-0. 184 P<0. 05 . Conclusion CONUT score T stage whether metastasis when diagnosis and Enneking stage are related to the prognosis of osteosarcoma patients while SII is not related to the clinical outcomes of patients with osteosarcoma.

Research progress in diagnosis and nutritional treatment of postoperative chylothorax in lung cancer
1Zhao Yuetong,2Liu Qinghao,1Dou Pan
Chylothorax is a common complication after radical surgery for lung cancer. Chylothorax after lung cancer surgery can lead to a large loss of serum albumin immunoglobulin fat soluble vitamins minerals immune cells and immune factors resulting in protein energy malnutrition fatsoluble vitamin deficiency electrolyte disorder severe infection and other complications. The mortality rate is high and timely and correct intervention is needed. The diagnosis of chylothorax still lacks a unified standard and there are various treatment methods for chylothorax. In recent years the view that the first line treatment for chylothorax is nutritional therapy has become increasingly recognized. However there are various ways and means of nutritional therapy including special natural diet oral nutrition supplementation enteral nutrition supplementary parenteral nutrition and total parenteral nutrition. This article reviews the diagnostic criteria localization diagnostic methods and various treatment methods for postoperative chylothorax in lung cancer with a focus on the latest research progress and methods of nutritional therapy. It also elaborates on the advantages and problems of different nutritional therapy methods and provides multiple implementation methods for different nutritional regimens providing reference for further standardized treatment in clinical practice improving patient nutritional status and accelerating the recovery of chylothorax.

Research progress on related factors of pathogenesis for cancer anorexia
1Wei Xinxin,2Qi Shujing,3Zhang Yong,3Qi Ruixia
Cancer anorexia can appear throughout the disease of cancer patients and is often ignored. The disease is common in advanced cancer patients with an incidence of up to 80%. Cancer anorexia is related to the chronic disease or anti-cancer treatment of cancer patients with characters of loss of appetite with or without weight loss negatively affects quality of life and even cancer anorexia-cachexia syndrome which directly affects the survival outcome of patients. Modern medical research believed that cancer anorexia is caused by the failure of normal appetite regulation signal transduction and different from malnutrition or hunger it is caused by metabolic abnormalities. However the current research on the pathogenesis of cancer anorexia has not been completely clear. Most studies believed that pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1 tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 and peripheral hormones such as ghrelin leptin and cholecystokinin central neuropeptide can alter normal regulation signals that govern appetite in different ways and then lead to cancer anorexia. Herein we aimed to review the recent related factors of pathogenesis progress for cancer anorexia and can provide references for further research on evaluation of cancer anorexia and new therapeutic targets.
