Patients with end-stage liver disease after liver transplantation constantly suffer from malnutrition due to primary diseases and transplantation-related factors. Malnutrition will worsen clinical condition of the patients, increase the incidence of complication, length of hospital stay and medical expense after transplantation, and lower the survival rate. Sufficient nutritional support at all stages of liver transplantation is of significance. Accurate assessment of nutritional status and timely intervention are prerequisites for perioperative nutritional treatment in liver transplantation. In this article, the latest nutritional risk screening indexes and evaluation tools, nutritional support methods and other perioperative nutritional intervention measures for liver transplantation were reviewed, aiming to deepen the understanding and cognition of perioperative nutritional therapy for liver transplantation and provide reference for improving nutritional status and clinical prognosis of liver transplant recipients.

Objective To investigate the effect of intermittent catheterization on the nutritional status of patients with dysphagia based on NRS2002 nutritional assessment. Methods A total of 100 patients with dysphagia were selected as subjects by convenience sampling method. Patients were divided into two groups by random number table method, with 50 patients in each group: control group and observation group. The control group was treated with nasal feeding and routine indwelling method, while the observation group was treated with intermittent catheterization method based on NRS2002 nutritional assessment. The changes of swallowing function and nutritional indexes were compared between the two groups before and after intervention. The incidence of poor prognosis event in the two groups was analyzed. Results After 5 weeks of intervention, the swallowing function rating and the improvement of nutritional status in observation group were significantly better than those in control group (P

Objective To study the application effect of nutritional risk screening in nutritional assessment of elderly patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). method selection 176 elderly CKD patients admitted to this hospital were screened for nutritional risk, and their body mass index (BMI), albumin (ALB), and prealbumin were determined. (PA), hemoglobin (Hb), creatinine (SCr) and other index levels, correlation analysis was performed. Results The prevalence of malnutrition in patients with CKD stage III, IV and V The incidence rate was significantly different from that of stage II patients (P<0.05). Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS2002) score and BMI, Hb, ALB, PA and SCr were correlated (P<0.05). Conclusion The application of nutritional risk screening in the nutritional assessment of elderly patients with CKD has a significant effect. Helps to improve the diagnosis of malnutrition risk.

Background and Objectives: Malnutrition is highly prevalent in Malaysian dialysis patients and there is a need for a valid screening tool for early identification and management. This cross-sectional study aims to examine the sensitivity of the Dialysis Malnutrition Score (DMS) and Malnutrition Inflammation Score (MIS) tools in predicting protein-energy wasting (PEW) among Malaysian dialysis patients.Methods and Study Design: A total of 155 haemodialysis (HD) and 90 peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients were screened for risk of malnutrition using DMS and MIS and comparisons were made with established guidelines by International Society of Renal Nutrition and Metabolism (ISRNM) for PEW.Results: MIS cut-off score of >=5 indicated presence of malnutrition in all patients. A total of 59% of HD and 83% of PD patients had PEW by ISRNM criteria. Based on DMS, 73% of HD and 71% of PD patients exhibited moderate malnutrition, whilst using MIS, 88% and 90%, respectively were malnourished. DMS and MIS correlated significantly in HD (r2=0.552, p<0.001) and PD (r2=0.466, p<0.001) patients. DMS and MIS had higher sensitivity values in PD (81% and 82%, respectively) compared to HD (59% and 60%, respectively) patients.Conclusions: The MIS cut-off scores for malnutrition classification were established (score >=5) for use amongst Malaysian dialysis patients. Both DMS and MIS are valid tools to be used for nutrition screening of dialysis patients especially those undergoing peritoneal dialysis. The DMS may be a more practical and simpler tool to be utilized in the Malaysian dialysis settings as it does not require laboratory markers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

慢性阻塞性肺疾病（ＣＯＰＤ）可存在多种并发症，营养不良是其中之一。营养状况（尤其异常的身体成分） 是ＣＯＰＤ患者结局的重要的独立决定因素。目前营养筛查与评估的工具有营养风险筛查２００２、主观整体评估、微 型营养评估等多种，但各有特点和不足之处。 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
