Objective. Preoperative nutritional status of patients is closely associated with their recovery after the surgery. This study aims to ascertain the impact exerted by the nutritional risk screening on clinical outcome of patients with esophageal cancer. Methods. 160 patients with esophageal cancer aged over 60, having got therapy at the First Hospital of Jilin University from Jun 2016 to Feb 2017 were evaluated by adopting the NRS2002. 80 cases of patients got active therapy of nutritional support, and the other patients not supported nutritionally were selected as the control group. The comparison was drawn between two groups in serum albumin, serum immunoglobulin, postoperative complications, hospitalization, and hospitalization expenses. Results. For all the patients, in 3 and 7 days after the surgery, the serum albumin in the nutritionally supported group outstripped that in group without nutritional support (P<0.05) regardless of the nutritional risk. For the patients in the risk of nutrition, the IgA in the nutritionally supported group outstripped that of group without nutritional support (P<0.05) in 3 and 7 days before the surgery, and the serum IgG outstripped that of the group without nutritional support in 1 and 3 days before the surgery (P<0.05). In terms of the patients in the risk of nutrition, the average hospitalization of nutritionally supported group was shorter (P<0.05), and the average hospitalization expenses were lower compared with those of the group without nutritional support. And for the patients in no risk, the hospitalization expenses of supported group surmounted those of group without nutritional support (P<0.05), whereas the average hospitalization took on no statistic difference (P>0.05). Conclusion. For the patients in the risk of nutrition, preoperative nutritional support can facilitate the nutritional status and immunization-relative result after surgery, which shall also decrease the average hospitalization and hospitalization cost.

Abstract Background Preoperative nutritional status of patients is closely associated with their recovery after the surgery. This study aims to ascertain the impact exerted by the nutritional risk screening on clinical outcome of patients with esophageal cancer, to provide scientific determination of nutritional support for patients suffering from esophageal cancer. Methods 160 patients with esophageal cancer aged over 60, having got therapy at the First Hospital affiliated by Jilin University from Jun. 2016to Feb. 2017 were evaluated adopting the NRS2002. 80 cases of patients got active therapy of nutritional support, and the other patients not supported nutritionally were selected as the control group. The comparison was drawn between two groups in serum albumin, serum immunoglobulin, postoperative complications, hospitalization and hospitalization expenses. Experimental data were acquired through adopting t-test and χ2 test for statistical analysis. Results For all the patients, in 3 and7 days after the surgery, the serum albumin in the nutritionally supported group outstripped that in group without nutritional support (P < 0.05) regardless of the nutritional risk. For the patients in the risk of nutrition, the IgA in the nutritionally supported group outstripped that of group without nutritional support (P < 0.05) in 3 and 7 days before the surgery, and the serum IgG outstripped that of the group without nutritional support in 1 and 3 days before the surgery(P < 0.05). Two groups were not statistically different in the rate of postoperative complication (P > 0.05). In terms of the patients in the risk of nutrition, the average hospitalization of nutritionally supported group was shorter(P < 0.05), and the average hospitalization expenses were lower compared with those of the group without nutritional support. And for the patients in no risk, the hospitalization expenses of supported group surmounted those of group without nutritional support (P < 0.05), whereas the average hospitalization took on no statistic difference(P > 0.05). Conclusion For the patients in the risk of nutrition, preoperative nutritional support can facilitate the nutritional status and immunization-relative result after surgery, which shall also decrease the average hospitalization and hospitalization cost.

ZusammenfassungDie Inzidenz von Mangelernährung geriatrischer Patienten wird im Allgemeinen mit über 50 % angegeben. Mangelernährung bei geriatrischen Traumapatienten rangiert im Kollektiv der proximalen Femurfrakturen zwischen 30 und 50 %. Insgesamt erscheinen sowohl die angegebenen Häufigkeiten als auch die angewandten Messinstrumente inhomogen. Malnutrition führt zu einer Verschlechterung der Wundheilung, einer längeren postoperativen Immobilität, einem verlängerten Krankenhausaufenthalt sowie zu einer Steigerung der Mortalität. Unter Hinzuziehung bestehender Leitlinien erreichen das Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) sowie das Nutritional Risk Screening (NRS) eine ausreichende prädiktive Validität in diesem geriatrischen Patientengut, um ein Screening auf Mangelernährung durchzuführen. Bezüglich möglicher therapeutischer Interventionen ist die Studienlage limitiert: Vorhandene Studien zeigen oft eine geringe Patientenzahl und demente Patienten, die besonders häufig mangelernährt sind, wurden häufig ausgeschlossen. Eine Leitlinie explizit für dieses spezielle Patientengut existiert aktuell nicht. Ein suffizientes Screening des Ernährungszustandes sowie Daten zur Durchführbarkeit und Effizienz einer kurzfristigen perioperativen Nahrungsergänzung könnten einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Stabilisierung dieser oft multimorbiden und fragilen Patienten leisten.

<p><b>Background:</b> Current knowledge on the pervasiveness of increased nutritional risk in cardiovascular diseases is limited. Our aim was to analyze the characteristics of nutritional risk screening in patients scheduled for rehabilitation after heart surgery. Prevalence and extent of nutritional risk were studied in connection with patients' characteristics and seasonal climate effects on weight loss dynamics.</p><p><b>Methods:</b> The cohort included 65 consecutive patients with an age range of 25-84 years, 2-6 months after surgical treatment for ischemic or valvular heart disease. Nutritional risk screening was appraised using a standardized NRS-2002 questionnaire. Groups were analyzed according to a timeline of rehabilitation according to the "cold" and "warm" seasons of the moderate Mediterranean climate in Opatija, Croatia.</p><p><b>Results:</b> Increased nutritional risk scores (NRS-2002) of >3 were found in 96% of studied patients. Mean NRS-2002 of patients was 5.0 � 1.0, with a percentage weight loss history of 11.7% � 2.2% (4.6-19.0). Risk was found to be more pronounced during the warmer season, with NRS-2002 scores of 5.3 � 0.7 versus 4.8 � 1.1 (<i>P</i> = 0.136) and greater loss of weight of 13.0% � 3.2% versus 10.6% � 3% (<i>P</i> = 0.005), respectively. Increased nutritional risk correlated significantly with creatinine concentrations (rho = 0.359; <i>P</i> = 0.034 versus 0.584; <i>P</i> = 0.001, respectively). Significant discordance in correlations was found between NRS-2002 and the decrease in left ventricle systolic function (rho correlation coefficient [rho-cc] = -0.428; <i>P</i> = 0.009), the increase in glucose concentrations (cc = 0.600; <i>P</i> < 0.001), and the decrease in erythrocyte counts (cc = -0.520; <i>P</i> = 0.001) during the colder season.</p><p><b>Conclusion:</b> Increased nutritional risk was found to be frequently expressed in the course of rehabilitation after heart surgery. Although seasonal climate effects influenced the weight loss dynamics, the impact on reproducibility of NRS-2002 was clinically less important. Further studies on the connection of nutritional risk with composited end points might offer improvements in overall quality of treatment.</p>
