[Safety and efficacy of enteral nutritional suspension (TPF-FOS) JEVITY in acute stroke].

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of enteral nutritional suspension (TPF-FOS) JEVITY in acute stroke patients.

Methods: A multicenter, prospective, post-marketing observational study was conducted. A total of 103 acute stroke patients with dysphagia received a 10-day regimen of enteral nutritional suspension (TPF-FOS) JEVITY via nasal gastric tube feeding.

[Comparative study of depression status in patients with subjective memory complaints and mild cognitive impairment].

Objective: To understand the nature of subjective memory complaints through comparative study of depression status of patients with subjective memory complaints and mild cognitive impairment.

Methods: A total of 214 patients were assessed with the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D) scale, the Geriatric Depression Scale and some neuropsychological tests. Among them, 76 were of subjective memory complaints (SMC), 74 amnestic mild cognitive impairment-single domain (aMCI-s) and 64 amnestic mild cognitive impairment-multiple domain (aMCI-m).

Efficacy and safety of different doses of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator in Chinese patients with ischemic stroke.

Intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) at 0.9mg/kg improves outcome in acute ischemic stroke. The dose response to tPA may be different in Chinese patients compared with Western populations, but this has not been systematically examined.

[The risk factors for malnutrition in post-stroke patients.].

Objective: To investigate the detection rate of malnutrition among post-stroke patients in community hospitals and unravel the relevant factors that precipitate malnutrition after stroke.

Methods: Based on 438 post-stroke patients who were admitted in community hospitals, we examined the demographic characteristics, the nutritional indices and the possible malnutrition related factors through a cross-sectional study.

Results: The detection rate of malnutrition among post-stroke patients was 52.

[The impact of early alimentary nutrition on short-term prognosis after acute stroke].

Objective: To discuss the short-term effects of early naso-gastric nutrition after acute stroke.

Methods: In a prospective non-randomized controlled design, 146 stroke patients with dysphagia were included. 75 patients in the intervention group received standard naso-gastric nutrition and 71 patients in the control group and received feeding supervised by family members.
