RESUMO

AIM: To ascertain to what extent it is possible to stop being obese (to normalize body mass index [BMI], waist circumference [WC] and/or body fat percentage [BFP]). DESIGN: Longitudinal observational and retrospective study. SITE: Eleven Spanish health centers. PARTICIPANTS: Men and women with BMI≥30kg/m2 (n=1246) or general obesity (GO), with WC>102cm and >88cm, respectively (n=2122) or abdominal obesity (AO) and with BFP>25% and >35%, respectively (n=2436) or excess body fat (EBF), from the PEPAF Study cohort of 4927 participants aged 20-80years. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: Data from the PEPAF study at baseline and at 6, 12 and 24months: gender, age, diagnoses of diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidemia, smoking, levels of and compliance with physical activity recommendations, maximum oxygen consumption, weigh, height, WC and three skin-folds (thoracic, umbilical and anterior thigh for men and triceps, suprailiac and anterior thigh for women). RESULTS: Of 2054 participants with any type of obesity at baseline and valid data at 2years, 240 (11.6%) had normalized all of their obesity diagnostic indexes. 19.5% (95% confidence interval (95%CI: 17.6-21.4) ceased to have EBF, 12.0% (95%CI: 10.4-13.7) ceased to have AO and 10.5% (95%CI: 8.5-12.7) ceased to have GO. CONCLUSIONS: Obesity differs from other chronic diseases in that it can be «cured¼ by normalizing the amount of body fat.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The concept of food addiction describes the difficulties of some individuals with regard to food consumption. OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency of food addiction and its association with body mass index (BMI), calorie consumption and therapeutic control in patients with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 1,080 patients with T2DM were included. The degree of metabolic control was determined with the levels of glycated hemoglobin, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and blood pressure. Daily caloric consumption was estimated with a semi-quantitative questionnaire of food consumption frequency. RESULTS: Nearly all patients showed overweight (40.5 %) and obesity (49.1 %). The frequency of food addiction was 54.2 % (56.9 % in women and 48.9 % in men). Food addiction was associated with BMI (OR = 1.89, p ≤ 0.05), high caloric intake (OR = 1.14, p ≤ 0.05) and glycated hemoglobin > 7 % (OR = 1.43, p ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Food addiction is common in patients with overweight/obesity and newly-diagnosed T2DM, and is associated with higher-than-recommended caloric consumption, obesity degree and poor metabolic control.


ANTECEDENTES: El concepto de adicción a la comida describe las dificultades de algunos individuos respecto al consumo de comida. OBJETIVO: Determinar la frecuencia de la adicción a la comida y su asociación con el índice de masa corporal (IMC), consumo de calorías y control terapéutico en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DMT2) de diagnóstico reciente. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se incluyeron 1080 pacientes con DMT2. Se determinó el grado de control terapéutico con niveles de hemoglobina glicada, colesterol de baja densidad y presión arterial. El consumo diario de calorías fue estimado con un cuestionario semicuantitativo de frecuencia de consumo de alimentos. RESULTADOS: Casi todos los pacientes mostraron sobrepeso (40.5 %) y obesidad (49.1 %). La frecuencia de adicción a la comida fue de 54.2 % (56.9 % en mujeres y 48.9 % en hombres). La adicción a la comida se asoció a IMC (RM = 1.89, p ≤ 0.05), alto consumo calórico (RM = 1.14, p ≤ 0.05) y hemoglobina glicada > 7 % (RM = 1.43, p ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSIONES: La adicción a la comida es frecuente en pacientes con sobrepeso/obesidad y DMT2 recientemente diagnosticada y se asocia al consumo calórico superior a lo recomendado, grado de obesidad y pobre control terapéutico.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To determine weight, height and body mass index (BMI) of schoolchildren from the La Mancha-Centro health area and compare them with those determined by the Spanish Cross-sectional Growth Study 2010 (SCGS-2010). METHODS: Cross-sectional study of 954 schoolchildren aged 6-12 years. Mean, standard deviation, and percentile distributions of weight, height, and BMI by gender and age were obtained. Differences in each 6-month age group were analyzed. RESULTS: There was a progressive increase in BMI with age, which was significant in girls from nine years of age on and in boys from 8.5 years on. From age 10, average BMI was 2.3 kg/m2 higher than at younger ages (p < 0.001). The biggest difference between genders occurred at age 12: 2 ± 0.98 kg/m2 higher in boys (p = 0.042). Overall, no significant differences were found in weight, height and BMI vs. SCGS-2010, although mean weight of male children from La Mancha-Centro aged between 8.5 and 11.5 years was 3.9 kg higher than that of the rest of Spanish male children. CONCLUSIONS: Anthropometric parameters of schoolchildren from La Mancha-Centro do not significantly differ from national standards; however, preadolescent males from La Mancha-Centro weigh almost 4 kg more.


OBJETIVOS: Determinar peso, talla e índice de masa corporal (IMC) de escolares del área de salud La Mancha-Centro y compararlos con los definidos en el Estudio Transversal Español de Crecimiento 2010 (ETEC-2010). MÉTODOS: Estudio transversal de 954 escolares entre 6 y 12 años. Se obtuvieron media, desviación estándar y distribuciones percentilares de peso, talla e IMC por sexo y edad. Se analizaron las diferencias en cada grupo semestral de edad. RESULTADOS: Existió incremento progresivo del IMC con la edad, significativo en las niñas a partir de los nueve años y en los niños desde los 8.5 años. Desde los 10 años, el IMC promedio resultó 2.3 kg/m2 superior al de edades menores (p < 0.001); la mayor diferencia entre los sexos ocurrió a los 12 años: 2 ± 0.98 kg/m2 más en los varones (p = 0.042). Globalmente no se hallaron diferencias significativas de peso, talla e IMC con el ETEC-2010, aunque el peso medio de los niños manchegos de 8.5 a 11.5 años fue 3.9 kg mayor que el del resto de los niños españoles. CONCLUSIONES: Los parámetros antropométricos de los escolares manchegos no difieren de los estándares nacionales; sin embargo, los varones preadolescentes manchegos pesan casi 4 kg más.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of Parkinson's disease (PD) increases as the population ages. Studies have shown that some cardiometabolic comorbidities could be associated with risk or protection against developing PD. A retrospective case-control study was carried out to analyze the relationship between PD and cardiometabolic comorbidities. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Subjects with PD and controls without PD were consecutively recruited. Data on type 2 diabetes mellitus, systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), dyslipidemia and body mass index were collected. Logistic regression analyses were carried out. RESULTS: A total of 781 subjects with PD (56.5% males) and 1,000 controls (44.4% males) were included. After adjusting for age and gender, SAH was found as an independent risk factor (OR: 1.32; 95% CI: 1.05-1.67; p = 0.02), and obesity as a protective factor (OR: 0.72; 95% CI: 0.56-0.93; p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Subjects with SAH had a higher risk of having PD, while obese subjects had a lower risk of having PD. The relationship between cardiometabolic disease, its treatment, and PD etiopathogenesis appears to be extremely complex given the amount of contradictory data.


ANTECEDENTES: La prevalencia de la enfermedad de Parkinson (EP) aumenta a medida que la población envejece. Los estudios han demostrado que algunas comorbilidades cardiometabólicas pudieran estar asociadas con el riesgo o la protección de desarrollar la EP. Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo de casos y controles para analizar la relación entre la EP y las comorbilidades cardiometabólicas. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se reclutaron sujetos con EP y controles sin EP de forma consecutiva. Se recolectaron datos sobre diabetes mellitus tipo 2, hipertensión arterial sistémica (HTA), dislipidemia e índice de masa corporal. Se llevó a cabo análisis de regresión logística. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron un total de 781 personas con EP (56,5% hombres) y 1,000 controles (44,4% hombres). Después de ajustar por edad y sexo, la HTA se encontró como factor de riesgo independiente (OR 1.32, IC 95% 1.05-1.67, p = 0.02) y la obesidad como factor protector (OR 0.72, IC 95% 0.56-0.93, p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONES: Los sujetos con HTA tienen un mayor riesgo de tener EP; mientras que los sujetos obesos tienen un menor riesgo de tener EP. La relación entre la enfermedad cardiometabólica, su tratamiento y etiopatogenia de la EP parece ser extremadamente compleja dada la cantidad de datos contradictorios.

RESUMO

INTRODUCCIÓN: La viscosuplementación del líquido sinovial mediante la inyección intraarticular (IA) de ácido hialurónico (AH) es un tratamiento sintomático ampliamente utilizado en la artrosis de rodilla (AR). Además de los productos diseñados para realizar inyecciones múltiples (normalmente de 3 a 5 inyecciones, en intervalos de 1 semana), se presta especial atención a los productos de una única inyección, ya que ofrecen ventajas específicas, como son un menor número de visitas al médico y de intervenciones invasivas con sus riesgos asociados. Sin embargo, aún existen dudas sobre la eficacia de estas inyecciones únicas, en comparación con los regímenes de inyecciones múltiples. MÉTODOS: Se realizó un estudio multicéntrico, abierto, prospectivo, post-mercado (ART-ONE 75) con el producto de inyección única ARTHRUM 2,5% (3 ml, 75 mg AH), en 214 pacientes que sufrían de AR. Los pacientes fueron seguidos en D30, D60, D120 y D180 (días). El perfil promedio de los pacientes en el momento de la inclusión fue de 62,9 años, 56% mujeres, grados I-III de Kellgren-Lawrence (46% KL III), IMC de 27,2 kg/m2 y 4 años desde el diagnóstico de AR. Se realizó una comparación post-hoc con una inyección IA única de placebo (326 pacientes, agrupados de 3 estudios ECA), que proporcionaron un perfil de paciente similar. RESULTADOS: el criterio principal fue la variación desde el inicio de la puntuación de la escala WOMAC A (dolor, escala 0-100) en D60, que se redujo en 28,9 (17,4) para la población por intención de tratar (ITT, por sus siglas en inglés) (199 pacientes), 28,0 (17,8) para la población por protocolo (PP) en la inclusión (175 pacientes), y en 27,7 (16,8) para la población PP al finalizar (143 pacientes).Los criterios secundarios y accesorios incluyeron WOMAC A en otras ocasiones, WOMAC B (rigidez), WOMAC C (función), calidad de vida y discapacidad en cada momento de seguimiento. Todos los índices mejoraron significativamente y continuaron mejorando al final del estudio. La evaluación terapéutica en D180 mostró que más del 75% de los pacientes se encontraban satisfechos con la reducción del dolor, la mejora de la movilidad, y la reducción de analgésicos y AINE. El porcentaje de pacientes definidos como respondedores de OMERACT-OARSI fue superior al 86%, a partir de D60 y en adelante. La tolerancia general fue buena, sin que ocurriera ningún evento adverso grave. El resultado de la comparación post-hoc para la escala WOMAC A mostró un tamaño del efecto [IC 95%] desde TE = 0,33 [0,15; 0,51] en D60 a TE = 0,65 [0,45; 0,85] en D180 (p <0,001), frente a la inyección de placebo (solución salina), lo cual es un resultado clínicamente relevante a favor de ARTHRUM 2,5%. CONCLUSIÓN: El presente estudio confirma la eficacia clínica de una única inyección IA de 3 ml de solución de AH conteniendo 75 mg de AH nativo de alto PM (> 2 MDa).

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Evaluation of the patient with obesity is a challenge due to the technical difficulties to carry out measurements. OBJECTIVE: To assess the association between neck circumference (NC) and waist circumference (WC) with cardio-metabolic risk markers, as well as treatment success in patients with morbid obesity. METHOD: Four-hundred and seventy patients of 39.3 ± 11.4 years of age and with a body mass index (BMI) of 44.1 ± 8.4 were studied; 73.5% were females. Baseline and final BMI, WC, NC, hip circumference and cardio-metabolic markers were assessed. Success was defined as weight loss ≥ 5%. RESULTS: Significant correlations were found between WC and NC, and between these and cardio-metabolic risk markers, as well as between changes in WC and NC and treatment success. NC predicted success in logistic regression models. CONCLUSIONS: The association of WC and NC with cardio-metabolic risk indicators and the association of NC with treatment success in patients with morbid obesity was documented. Given the simplicity for obtaining it, NC might replace WC in the assessment and follow-up of patients with class III obesity.


INTRODUCCIÓN: La evaluación del paciente con obesidad es un reto debido a las dificultades técnicas para efectuar las mediciones. OBJETIVO: Evaluar la asociación entre el perímetro de cuello (PCu) y el de cintura (PC) con marcadores de riesgo cardiometabólico y el éxito del tratamiento de pacientes con obesidad mórbida. MÉTODO: Se estudiaron 470 pacientes de 39.3 ± 11.4 años e índice de masa corporal de 44.1 ± 8.4; 73.5 % era del sexo femenino. Se evaluó índice de masa corporal, PC, PCu, perímetro de cadera y marcadores cardiometabólicos basales y finales. Se definió como éxito a una pérdida ponderal ≥ 5 %. RESULTADOS: Se encontraron correlaciones significativas entre PC y PCu y entre estos y marcadores de riesgo cardiometabólico, así como entre los cambios en PC y PCu y el éxito en el tratamiento. El PCu predijo el éxito en modelos de regresión logística. CONCLUSIONES: Se documentó la asociación entre PC y PCu con indicadores de riesgo cardiometabólico y la asociación del PCu con éxito en el tratamiento en pacientes con obesidad mórbida. Dada la sencillez de su obtención, el PCu podría sustituir al PC en la evaluación y seguimiento de pacientes con obesidad clase III.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Multi-frequency bio-impedance analysis (BIA) accurately evaluates body composition. OBJECTIVE: To assess nutritional status and its relationship with body mass index (BMI) or with BIA-obtained phase angle in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis. METHOD: BMI, BIA and dialysis malnutrition score (DMS) were assessed in 99 patients on hemodialysis (43.6 ± 17.2 years of age, 58.8% males). Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to determine BMI and phase angle independent associations with DMS. RESULTS: Malnutrition risk (DMS > 13) showed a gradual increase among patients with normal BMI and phase angle (44.4%), low BMI (45.8%), low phase angle (64.0%), and in those with both parameters at abnormal ranges (68.0%). The phase angle was the only variable that was independently associated with patient nutritional status (standardized coefficient beta -0.372, p < 0.001), accounting for 13.8% of DMS variation. CONCLUSION: Phase angle is inversely and independently associated with malnutrition risk in patients with ESRD, which suggests that BIA-assessed body composition might be better than BMI in the clinical assessment of patients with ESRD.


INTRODUCCIÓN: La bioimpedancia eléctrica multifrecuencia (BIE) evalúa con precisión la composición corporal. OBJETIVO: Investigar el estado nutricional y su relación con el índice de masa corporal (IMC) o el ángulo fase obtenido por BIE en pacientes con enfermedad renal terminal (ERT) en hemodiálisis. MÉTODO: En 99 pacientes en hemodiálisis (43.6 ± 17.2 años, 58.8 % varones) se evaluó IMC, BIE y puntuación de desnutrición (DMS, Dialysis Malnutrition Score). La independencia de las asociaciones del IMC y el ángulo fase con el DMS se determinó con regresión lineal múltiple. RESULTADOS: El riesgo de desnutrición (DMS > 13) se incrementó gradualmente entre los sujetos con IMC y ángulo fase normales (44.4 %), IMC bajo (45.8 %), ángulo fase bajo (64.0 %) y en aquellos con ambos parámetros anormales (68.0 %). El ángulo fase fue la única variable asociada independientemente con el estado nutricional de los pacientes (coeficiente beta estandarizado −0.372, p < 0.001), lo que explicó 13.8 % de la variación en el DMS. CONCLUSIONES: El ángulo fase se asocia inversa e independientemente con el riesgo de desnutrición en pacientes con ERT, lo que sugiere que la composición corporal evaluada por BIE pudiera ser mejor que el IMC en la valoración clínica de pacientes con esta enfermedad.

RESUMO

Management of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is focused on restitution of metabolic derangement, weight loss and drugs able to improve steatosis, ballooning and fibrosis. Life-style interventions based on Mediterranean diet and increasing physical activity are the first line therapy. In patients with unsuccessful life-style intervention several drugs are under development: agonist PPAR, agonist GLP-1R and agonist FXR together with drugs focussing on inflammation, ballooning, apoptosis and fibrosis. Bariatric surgery or advanced endoscopy are reserved for morbid obese without response to life-style intervention and weighting loss drugs.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether the benefit on cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) persists 5 years after an intensive intervention in lifestyle (LS) that lasted 2 years, in patients with hyperfibrinogenaemia and moderate or high cardiovascular risk. DESIGN: multicentre prospective observational study. LOCATION: 13 Primary Care Centres in Barcelona and Baix Llobregat. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 300 patients who completed the EFAP study (146 intervention group, 154 control group). INTERVENTIONS: The EFAP study, conducted on patients with normal cholesterol and elevated fibrinogen showed that lifestyle interventions are effective in reducing CVRF. After the EFAP study, the 2 groups followed the usual controls, and re-assessed after 5 years. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: Age, gender, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) (diabetes, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, obesity), laboratory parameters (fibrinogen, glucose, full blood count, cholesterol, triglycerides), blood pressure, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), tobacco and alcohol use, REGICOR. RESULTS: At 5 years, the intervention group had a lower abdominal circumference (98 and 101cm, respectively, P=.043), a lower weight (76.30 and 75.04kg, respectively, P<.001), and BMI (29.5 and 30.97kg/m2, P=.018). Fibrinogen level was lower in the intervention group (330.33 and 320.27 mg/dl respectively, P < .001), and REGICOR risk was also lower in the intervention group (5.65 and 5.59 respectively, P < .06). CONCLUSION: The benefit of an intensive intervention in LS for 2 years to reduce CVRF persists at 5 years, but decreases its intensity over time. It is recommended to repeat the interventions periodically to maintain the beneficial effect on LS.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Globally, tuberculosis prevalence has declined, but its risk factors have varied across place and time - low body mass index (BMI) has persisted while diabetes has increased. Using India's National Family Health Survey (NFHS), wave 3 and World Health Survey (WHS) data, we examined their relationships to support projection of future trends and targeted control efforts. METHODS: Multivariate logistic regressions at the individual level with and without diabetes/BMI interactions assessed the relationship between tuberculosis, diabetes and low BMI and the importance of risk factor co-occurrence. Population-level analyses examined how tuberculosis incidence and prevalence varied with diabetes/low BMI co-occurrence. RESULTS: In NFHS, diabetic individuals had higher predicted tuberculosis risks (diabetic vs. non-diabetic: 2.50% vs. 0.63% at low BMI; 0.81% vs. 0.20% at normal BMI; 0.37% vs. 0.09% at high BMI), which were not significantly different when modelled independently or allowing for risk modification with diabetes/low BMI co-occurrence. WHS findings were generally consistent. Population-level analysis found that diabetes/low BMI co-occurrence may be associated with elevated tuberculosis risk, although its predicted effect on tuberculosis incidence/prevalence was generally ≤0.2 percentage points and not robustly statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: Concerns about the additional elevation of tuberculosis risk from diabetes/low BMI co-occurrence and hence the need to coordinate tuberculosis control efforts around the nexus of co-occurring diabetes and low BMI may be premature. However, study findings robustly support the importance of individually targeting low BMI and diabetes as part of ongoing tuberculosis control efforts.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To quantify maternal obesity as a risk factor for Caesarean delivery in sub-Saharan Africa. METHODS: Multivariable logistic regression analysis using 31 nationally representative cross-sectional data sets from the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS). RESULTS: Maternal obesity was a risk factor for Caesarean delivery in sub-Saharan Africa; a clear dose-response relationship (where the magnitude of the association increased with increasing BMI) was observable. Compared to women of optimal weight, overweight women (BMI 25-29 kg/m(2) ) were significantly more likely to deliver by Caesarean (OR: 1.54; 95% CI: 1.33, 1.78), as were obese women (30-34.9 kg/m(2) (OR: 2.39; 95%CI: 1.96-2.90); 35-39.9 kg/m(2) (OR: 2.47 95%CI: 1.78-3.43)) and morbidly obese women (BMI ≥40 kg/m(2) OR: 3.85; 95% CI: 2.46-6.00). CONCLUSIONS: BMI is projected to rise substantially in sub-Saharan Africa over the next few decades and demand for Caesarean sections already exceeds available capacity. Overweight women should be advised to lose weight prior to pregnancy. Furthermore, culturally appropriate prevention strategies to discourage further population-level rises in BMI need to be designed and implemented.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Idiopathic intracranial hypertension is a disorder characterised by increased intracranial pressure without evidence of an expansive intracranial process or cerebrospinal fluid cytochemical alterations. PATIENTS AND METHOD: We reviewed the medical records of patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension admitted to our hospital between 1999 and 2009 and who met the modified Dandy criteria. We collected the following data: age, body mass index (BMI), outlet pressure of cerebrospinal fluid, cardiovascular history, imaging studies, treatment, and outcome. RESULTS: We analysed 61 patients (19 males and 42 females) with a mean age of 35.38 years. A BMI above the normal range was determined for 72.13% of the patients, although 47.37% of males showed normal weight. Fifty per cent of patients had a cardiovascular risk factor, especially dyslipidaemia, hypertension, and contraceptive drugs in women. Headache was the main presenting symptom, followed by visual field defects and other visual disturbances. Bilateral papilledema was present in 81.96% of the patients. CONCLUSIONS: The approximate incidence is 1.2/100,000 individuals/year. The condition is more common in young women with higher body weight and it is also associated with contraceptive drugs. Headache with bilateral papilloedema and impaired visual acuity stand out as the main symptoms. An interesting finding from this study is that male patients had a lower BMI, a lower incidence of headache and increased visual impairment.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to evaluate the association between body mass index (BMI), incidence and severity of pressure ulcers (PU) in patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and describe the differential prognosis of patients with PU and factors that modify it. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Case-control study with observation period of 15 months. We collected baseline variables, prognostic scales, therapies and clinical outcome. Univariate analysis was performed for each outcome variable between cases and controls using the appropriate hypothesis test depending on the nature of the variables. ROC curve for BMI and PU. Logistic regression with PU as dependent variable and the covariates that reached p<0.05 in the bivariate analysis. Correlation using Pearson or Spearman was made between BMI, albumin, days to diagnosis of UPP, immobilization, and PU degree. Significance level at p <0.05. RESULTS: 77 patients developed PU and 231 controls were chosen. The cases had higher APACHE II (p=0.043) and SAPS 3 (p=0.023), length of stay in ICU and mechanical ventilation (p<0.001). BMI≥40 was associated with UPP (p=0.024 OR=3.23 CI95% 1.17-8.93). There was a significant association between PU degree, length of stay and MV (p<0,001), but not with immobilization, dynamic support surface and death rate. Multivariate analysis found association between PU, length of MV (p=0.013, OR 1.08, CI95% 1.01-1.16) and kidney replacement therapy (p=0.013, OR 3.55 CI95% 1.31-9.64), with BMI≥40 as a confounding factor. CONCLUSIONS: Length of mechanical ventilation and renal replacement therapy are risk factors for pressure ulcer development, and BMI≥40 acts as a confounding factor. PU development and its maximum degree are not associated with a worse prognosis.

RESUMO

Introduction: Introduction: in previous studies, obesity was identified as a risk factor for inflammatory breast disease, but its causality is uncertain. In the present study, we performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) analysis to investigate the causal relationship between obesity and inflammatory breast disease. Methods: we use body mass index (BMI) as a measure of obesity. Data for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with BMI were obtained from UK Biobank. Data for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with mastitis were obtained from FinnGen Biobank. We used several MR analysis methods, such as inverse-variance weighting (IVW), MR-Egger, weighted median, simple mode and weighted mode to make our results more convincing. We also performed MR-PRESSO test, MR-Egger test, heterogeneity test, pleiotropy test and leave-one-out analysis to make our analysis results more robust and credible. We used odds ratio (OR) to evaluate the causal relationship between BMI and mastitis. Results: based on the IVW random effects model, we found that a one-standard deviation (SD) increase in BMI increased the risk of mastitis by 62.1 % (OR = 1.621, 95 % CI: 1.262-2.083, p = 1.59E-4), which is almost consistent with the results of several other methods. Conclusions: in European individuals, an increase in the number of BMI increases the risk of inflammatory breast disease. People with high BMI need to control their weight to reduce the incidence of inflammatory breast disease.


Introducción: Introducción: en estudios previos, la obesidad se identificó como un factor de riesgo para la enfermedad inflamatoria de mama, pero su causalidad es incierta. En el presente estudio, se realizó un análisis de aleatorización mendeliana de dos muestras (TSMR) para investigar la relación causal entre la obesidad y la enfermedad inflamatoria de mama. Métodos: se empleó el índice de masa corporal (IMC) como medida de obesidad. Los datos de los polimorfismos de nucleótido único (SNP) asociados con el IMC se obtuvieron del Biobank de Reino Unido y los datos de los polimorfismos de nucleótido único (SNP) asociados con la mastitis se obtuvieron de FinnGen Biobank. Se utilizaron varios métodos de análisis de RM, como la ponderación inversa de la varianza (IVW), RM-Egger, mediana ponderada, modo simple y modo ponderado para que nuestros resultados fueran más convincentes. También se realizaron la prueba MR-PRESSO, la prueba MR-Egger, la prueba de heterogeneidad, el test de pleiotropía y la validación dejando uno fuera (en inglés, leave-one-out) para que los resultados de nuestro análisis fueran más sólidos y creíbles. Se utilizó la odds ratio (OR) para evaluar la relación causal entre el IMC y la mastitis. Resultados: basándonos en el modelo de efectos aleatorios IVW, se halló que un aumento de una desviación estándar (DE) en el IMC aumentaba el riesgo de mastitis en un 62,1 % (OR = 1,621, IC 95 %: 1,262-2,083, p = 1,59E-4), que es casi consistente con los resultados de otros diversos métodos. Conclusiones: en los individuos europeos, un aumento del número de IMC aumenta el riesgo de enfermedad inflamatoria mamaria. Las personas con un IMC elevado deben controlar su peso para reducir la incidencia de enfermedad inflamatoria de la mama.

RESUMO

Introduction: Introduction and objectives: epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a rare genetic disease characterised by skin fragility with blisters and erosions on the skin and/or mucous membranes. People with EB often experience several extracutaneous manifestations, including clinical and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) complications. Herein, we evaluate their HRQoL and clinical severity and propose an objective criterion for estimating nutritional compromise using the Birmingham Epidermolysis Bullosa Severity Score (BEBS) tool. Methods: this series of cases included people with EB, monitored by a multi-professional team. Clinical severity was assessed with the BEBS, using body mass index ranges by age, as an objective proposal, to estimate the degree of nutritional compromise. To assess HRQoL, the Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (individuals aged 4-16 years) and the Quality of Life Evaluation in Epidermolysis Bullosa - Brazilian Portuguese (individuals 17 years and over) were used. Results: of the nine individuals with recessive dystrophic EB (88.9 % female and 12.91 (SD = 11.71) years), the mean total BEBS score was 24.47 (SD = 12.80) points on a scale of 0 to 100 points. Six participants had significant nutritional compromise according to the proposed criteria. Five of the six participants evaluated for HRQoL reported experiencing some impact, with individuals aged 17 and over being more affected and with greater clinical severity. Conclusions: individuals with greater clinical severity of EB experience a more significant impact on their HRQoL. The proposed quantitative criteria for assessing nutritional compromise may help standardise assessments by professionals monitoring the nutritional status of individuals with EB. Keywords: Quality of life. Epidermolysis bullosa. Body mass index.


Introducción: Introducción y objetivos: la epidermólisis bullosa (EB) es una rara enfermedad genética caracterizada por fragilidad de la piel con ampollas y erosiones. Las personas con EB experimentan manifestaciones extracutáneas y complicaciones clínicas y de calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS). Evaluamos la CVRS y la gravedad clínica y proponemos un criterio objetivo para estimar el deterioro nutricional con la herramienta Birmingham Epidermolysis Bullosa Severity Score (BEBS). Métodos: esta serie de casos incluyó pacientes con EB monitoreadas por un equipo multiprofesional. Se evaluó la gravedad clínica con el BEBS utilizando rangos de índice de masa corporal por edad. Para evaluar la CVRS se utilizaron el Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (individuos de 4 a 16 años) y el Quality of Life Evaluation in Epidermolysis Bullosa ­ Brazilian Portuguese (individuos de 17 años y más). Resultados: de los nueve individuos con EB distrófica recesiva (88,9 % mujeres y 12,91 (DE = 11,71) años), la puntuación total media del BEBS fue de 24,47 (DE = 12,80) puntos en una escala de 0 a 100 puntos. Seis participantes tenían un deterioro nutricional significativo según los criterios propuestos. Cinco de los seis participantes evaluados en la CVRS informaron experimentar algún impacto, siendo los individuos de 17 años y más los más afectados y con mayor gravedad clínica. Conclusiones: los pacientes con mayor gravedad clínica experimentan un impacto más significativo en su CVRS. Los criterios cuantitativos propuestos para evaluar el deterioro nutricional pueden ayudar a estandarizar las evaluaciones de los profesionales que monitorean el estado nutricional de las personas con EB.

RESUMO

Introduction: Introduction: most studies that analyze the relationship between diet quality and obesity have a cross-sectional design; an alternative with repeated cross-sectional data is a pseudo-panel design. Objective: to estimate the association between trends in dietary patterns, defined by a diet quality index, and body mass index (BMI) of Mexican adults between 2006 and 2016. Methodology: a pseudo-panel analysis was performed using data from cross-sectional surveys: National Health and Nutrition Surveys of Mexico (ENSANUTs) 2006 and 2012 and the Midway National Health and Nutrition Survey 2016 (ENSANUTMC). Cohorts (n = 108) were constructed by grouping adults 20-59 years old by sex (men n = 6,081 and women n = 11,404), education level, and year of birth. The association between diet quality (defined with the Healthy Eating Index-2015) and BMI was estimated using a fixed effects model, adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics. Results: a one-point increase in the proportion of women with high diet quality was associated with 4.1 points lower BMI (p = 0.014) compared with women with low diet quality when excluding sub-reporters of energy, the same association is observed when physical activity is included in the model. No association was found between diet quality and BMI in men, possibly because of the existence of latent classes within sociodemographic strata, therefore diet qualiy is inversely associated with BMI only in some categories of sociodemographic strata. Conclusions: these results contribute to the evidence in the longitudinal analysis between diet and BMI, highlighting the importance of differentiating the population by sex and sociodemographic characteristics. These results are input for public policy creation that promotes improving the quality of the population's diet as part of multisectoral strategies to reduce overweight and obesity in Mexican adults.


Introducción: Introducción: muchos estudios que analizan la relación entre calidad de la dieta y obesidad son transversales; una alternativa con datos transversales repetidos es el diseño de pseudopanel. Objetivo: estimar la asociación entre patrones alimentarios definidos mediante un índice de calidad de la dieta y el índice de masa corporal (IMC) en adultos mexicanos entre 2006 y 2016. Metodología: se realizó un análisis de pseudopanel utilizando datos de las Encuestas Nacionales de Salud y Nutrición de México (ENSANUTs) de 2006 y 2012 y la Encuesta Nacional de Salud y Nutrición de medio camino de 2016 (ENSANUTMC). Se construyeron cohortes (n = 108) agrupando datos de adultos entre 20 y 59 años, por sexo (hombres n = 6,081, mujeres n = 11,404), nivel de escolaridad y año de nacimiento. La asociación entre calidad de la dieta (definida mediante el Índice de Calidad de la Dieta 2015) y el IMC se estimó con un modelo de efectos fijos, ajustado por características sociodemográficas. Resultados: un aumento de 1 punto en la proporción de mujeres con calidad de dieta alta se asoció con 4,1 puntos menos de IMC (p = 0,014) comparado con las mujeres con calidad de dieta baja; al excluir a las subreportadoras de energía, la misma asociación se observó incluyendo la actividad física al modelo. No se encontró asociación entre calidad de dieta e IMC en los hombres, posiblemente debido a la existencia de subgrupos dentro de los estratos sociodemográficos, lo cual hace que la calidad de la dieta esté inversamente asociada al IMC solo en algunas categorías de los estratos. Conclusiones: estos resultados contribuyen a la evidencia longitudinal entre dieta e IMC, destacando la importancia de estratificar por sexo y características sociodemográficas. Los resultados son un ínsumo para crear políticas públicas que promuevan mejorar la calidad de la dieta como parte de estrategias multisectoriales para disminuir el sobrepeso y la obesidad en los adultos mexicanos.

RESUMO

Introduction: Introduction: eating behaviors may modulate or influence diet quality and the degree of adherence to the Mediterranean diet in children and adolescents. Aims: to investigate the association between diet quality and eating behavior in a group of Spanish schoolchildren. Methods: descriptive cross-sectional study of 283 Spain schoolchildren aged six to 16. Each subject was assessed using the KIDMED questionnaire for adherence to the Mediterranean diet and the Children's Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (CEBQ) questionnaire to assess eating behavior. Results: of the sample, 12.80 % had low adherence to the Mediterranean diet, 59.80 % had poor adherence, 59.80 % could be improved, and 27.40 % had high adherence. When relating eating behavior to dietary quality, it was found that, generally, schoolchildren with greater enjoyment of food and less demand for food have double the adherence to the Mediterranean diet due to almost twice the consumption of vegetables, nuts, and fish, and a lower intake of low-quality processed foods (sweets). The response to satiety and the speed of ingestion also played an important role in food choices. Conclusions: eating behaviors may play an essential role in the quality of school children's diets highlighting the enjoyment and acceptance or rejection of food. Given the bidirectional nature of the effects between eating behaviors and diet quality, the joint analysis may be the basis for future research with the aim of a better nutritional approach from the earliest ages.


Introducción: Introducción: las conductas alimentarias pueden modular o influir en la calidad de la dieta y el grado de adherencia a la dieta mediterránea de niños y adolescentes. Objetivos: investigar la asociación entre la calidad de la dieta y el comportamiento alimentario en un grupo de escolares españoles. Métodos: se trata de un estudio transversal descriptivo en una muestra de 283 escolares españoles de seis a 16 años. Cada sujeto fue evaluado mediante el cuestionario KIDMED de adherencia a la dieta mediterránea y el cuestionario Children's Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (CEBQ) para evaluar el comportamiento alimentario. Resultados: un 12,80 % de la muestra presentó baja adherencia a la dieta mediterránea; un 59,80 %, adherencia mejorable; y un 27,40 %, adherencia alta. Al relacionar las conductas alimentarias con la calidad dietética, los escolares con mayor disfrute por los alimentos y menos exigencia con la comida presentan el doble de adherencia a la dieta mediterránea, por un consumo de casi el doble de vegetales, frutos secos o pescado, así como menor ingesta de procesados de baja calidad (golosinas y dulces). La respuesta a la saciedad y la velocidad de ingesta también tuvieron un papel importante en las elecciones alimentarias. Conclusiones: las conductas alimentarias pueden tener un importante papel en la calidad de la dieta de los escolares, destacando el disfrute y la aceptación o rechazo por los alimentos. Dada la naturaleza bidireccional de los efectos entre las conductas alimentarias y la calidad de la dieta, el análisis conjunto puede ser la base de futuras investigaciones con el objetivo de un mejor abordaje nutricional desde las edades más tempranas.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Obesity is a global epidemic affecting developing countries. The relationship between obesity and perioperative outcomes during elective lumbar spine surgery remains controversial, especially in those without morbid disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively revised the medical records of patients with lumbar spine degeneration subjected to elective surgery. The data retrieved included demographic and clinical characteristics, body mass index (BMI), obesity status (BMI ≥ 30), surgical interventions, estimated blood loss (EBL), operative time, length of stay (LOS), and post-operative complications. Perioperative outcomes were compared between Grade I-II obese and non-obese individuals. RESULTS: We enrolled 53 patients, 18 with Grade I-II obesity. Their median age was 51, with no differences in gender, comorbidities, laboratory parameters, and surgical procedures received between groups. No clinically relevant differences were found between grade I-II obese and non-obese participants in EBL (300 mL vs. 250 mL, p = 0.069), operative time (3.2 h vs. 3.0 h, p = 0.037), and LOS (6 days vs. 5 days, p = 0.3). Furthermore, BMI was not associated with the incidence of significant bleeding and long stay but showed a modest correlation with operative time. CONCLUSION: Grade I-II obesity does not increase surgical complexity nor perioperative complications during open lumbar spine surgery.


OBJETIVO: La obesidad es una epidemia mundial que afecta a países subdesarrollados. Su relación con los resultados de la cirugía de columna lumbar electiva sigue siendo controvertida, especialmente en obesos sin enfermedad mórbida. MÉTODOS: Se revisaron los expedientes de pacientes con degeneración de la columna lumbar sometidos a cirugía. Los datos recuperados incluyeron características demográficas y clínicas, índice de masa corporal (IMC), estado de obesidad (IMC > 30), intervenciones quirúrgicas, sangrado estimado, tiempo operatorio, tiempo de estancia y complicaciones. Los resultados se compararon entre individuos obesos grado I-II y controles. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 53 pacientes, 18 con obesidad de grado I-II. La edad media fue de 51 años, sin diferencias en el sexo, las comorbilidades, los parámetros de laboratorio y los procedimientos quirúrgicos recibidos entre grupos. No se encontraron diferencias relevantes entre los participantes obesos y los no obesos en sangrado (300 vs. 250 mL, p = 0.069), tiempo operatorio (3.2 vs. 3.0 horas, p = 0.037) y estancia (6 vs. 5 días, p = 0.3). El IMC no se asoció con hemorragia y larga estancia, pero mostró una correlación modesta con el tiempo operatorio. CONCLUSIONES: La obesidad grado I-II no predispone a complicaciones durante la cirugía de columna lumbar.

RESUMO

Obesity is sharply rising worldwide and is increasingly recognized in patients with cirrhosis. This review summarizes the available data documenting a detrimental role of obesity and insulin-resistance on the risk of appearance of clinical events in patients with cirrhosis. Molecular pathways explaining the harmful effect of obesity and insulin resistance in the natural history of cirrhosis are largely unknown. Increasing knowledge of mechanisms leading to white adipose tissue dysfunction on one side, and to portal hypertension on the other side, allow hypothesizing that a link between the pathophysiology of obesity, insulin resistance and portal hypertension in cirrhosis exists. Mechanisms likely involved in this interplay are discussed in this article.

RESUMO

Introduction: Introduction: 30 % of the world population currently has overweight and obesity problems, while in Ecuador this is 64.68 %. The identification of population groups more vulnerable to overweight and obesity is a basic issue to establish better public policies. Objective: to identify the population groups at risk of overweight and obesity according to socio-demographic determinants (ethnicity, marital status, poverty and age). Methods: a cross-sectional study. Data from 89,212 adults of both sexes were analyzed. Body mass index (BMI) was used to assess the prevalence of overweight and obesity, and multiple linear regression analysis was performed to relate BMI to sociodemographic determinants. Results: women had an average of 1.03 kg/m2 more than men, and BMI rose by 0.04 kg/m2 for each year of age. In relation to marital status, married people presented 1.14 kg/m2 more than single people. Taking into account the poverty quintiles and q1 as a reference category, quintiles 2, 3 and 4 showed a higher BMI of 0.65, 0.88, 0.77 and 0.41 kg/m2, respectively (p < 0.001). Regarding ethnicity, indigenous people had a BMI 0.78 kg/m2 less than whites; Montubios and Afro-Americans had 0.37 and 0.61 kg/m2, respectively, more than whites. People residing in the urban area present 0.41 kg/m2 more than the residents in the rural area. Conclusions: we identified groups of higher nutritional risk such as women and married people for overweight and obesity, while indigenous people and the poorest people were at risk for low weight, which indicates that in Ecuador adults have problems of both excess and deficit. It is necessary to implement policies aimed at specific population groups.


Introducción: Introducción: el 30 % de la población mundial presenta actualmente problemas de sobrepeso y obesidad, mientras que en Ecuador la incidencia es del 64,68 %. La identificación de grupos poblacionales más vulnerables al sobrepeso y la obesidad es un tema básico para establecer mejores políticas públicas. Objetivo: identificar a los grupos poblacionales con riesgo de sobrepeso y obesidad según determinantes sociodemográficos (etnia, estado civil, pobreza y edad). Métodos: estudio transversal. Se analizaron los datos de 89.212 adultos de ambos sexos provenientes del estudio ENSANUT-EC 2018. Se utilizó el índice de masa corporal (IMC) para evaluar la prevalencia del sobrepeso y la obesidad, y se realizó un análisis de regresión lineal múltiple para relacionar el IMC con los determinantes sociodemográficos. Resultados: las mujeres presentaron en promedio 1,03 kg/m2 más que los hombres y el IMC se elevó 0,04 kg/m2 por cada año de edad. En relación al estado civil, los casados presentaron 1,14 kg/m2 más que los solteros. Tomando en cuenta los quintiles de pobreza y al q1 como categoría de referencia, los quintiles 2, 3 y 4 mostraron un IMC mayor en 0,65, 0,88, 0,77 y 0,41 kg/m2, respectivamente (p < 0,001). En cuanto a la etnia, los indígenas presentaron un IMC 0,78 kg/m2 menor que el de los blancos; los montubios y los afroamericanos presentaron 0,37 y 0,61 kg/m2, respectivamente, más que los blancos. Las personas que residen en el área urbana presentan 0,41 kg/m2 más que los residentes del área rural. Conclusiones: identificamos grupos de mayor riesgo nutricional, como las mujeres y las personas casadas, para el sobrepeso y la obesidad, mientras que los indígenas y las personas más pobres tienen riesgo de bajo peso, lo que indica que en Ecuador los adultos presentan problemas tanto de exceso como de déficit. Es necesaria la implementación de políticas dirigidas a grupos poblacionales especificos.
