RESUMO
Objective:To explore the application value of nutritional support comprehensive nursing in patients with advanced gynecological tumor and analyze its impact on patients' quality of life.Methods:From May 2016 to August 2019, 110 patients with advanced gynecological tumors were enrolled in the First People′s Hospital of Lianyungang City. According to the random number table method, they were divided into control group and observation group with 55 cases in each group. The control group received standard nutritional nursing and the observation group received nutrition support comprehensive nursing. Three milliliters of fasting venous blood were collected at the time of admission and discharge for centrifugation. The serum albumin (ALB) and prealbumin (PA) levels of the two groups were measured. The body mass index (BMI) of the patients was calculated and the changes of their nutritional status were analyzed.The quality of life of cancer patients was evaluated by the European Cancer Research and Treatment Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 at the time of admission and discharge.Results:There was no significant difference in the serum ALB, PA and quality of life at the time of admission between the two groups( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in BMI at the time of admission and discharge in the two groups( P>0.05). The serum ALB and PA were (36.92±2.68), (0.26±0.07) g/L at discharge in the observation group, significantly higher than (35.42±2.71), (0.23±0.06) g/L in the control group ( t values were 2.918, 2.413, P<0.05). The scores of social function, emotional function, role function, physical function and total life quality score were 63.42±4.18,62.83±6.24,63.19±6.12,64.43±4.31,70.42±6.91 at discharge in the observation group,significantly higher than 57.34±5.06,56.39±7.37,60.45±5.99,61.46±5.08,66.35±5.96 in the control group ( t values were 2.373-6.870, P<0.05). The scores of diarrhea, constipation, insomnia, anorexia, nausea, fatigue in the observation group were 36.42±5.06,34.54±6.23,34.49±5.56,36.41±4.57,40.38±7.24,37.94±4.65,significantly lower than 40.83±4.81,38.74±5.12,38.43±4.97,40.43±6.24,43.29±5.12,40.19±3.97 in the control group ( t values were 2.434-4.685, P<0.05). Conclusions:Nutrition support comprehensive nursing for patients with advanced gynecological tumor can further improve their nutritional status and improve their quality of life.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>Mutations of presenilin 1 (PSEN1) gene are the most frequent cause for familial Alzheimers disease (AD). This study was set to explore potential mutation of PSEN1 gene in a Chinese family featuring early-onset Alzheimers disease (FAD).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>DNA was isolated from peripheral blood samples from 17 members of the FAD family as well as 10 patients with sporadic Alzheimers disease and 100 healthy subjects. With polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Sanger sequencing, exons 113 of the PSEN1 gene were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>DNA sequencing has revealed a heterozygous point mutation from G to A at position 1133 (Gly378Glu) of exon 11 of PSEN1 gene in 6 members from the family, among whom 5 were patients with dementia, whilst the remaining 1 was clinically normal but under onset age. The same mutation was not found in all other patients and the normal controls.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>A novel missense mutation of the PSEN1 gene, Gly378Glu, probably underlies the autosomal dominant early-onset FAD in this Chinese family.</p>
