RESUMEN
Food addiction (FA) has been widely investigated. For the first time, two studies reported its association with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) in the general population and populations with mental disorders and undergoing bariatric surgery. However, the relationship between FA and DM2 needs to be better explored in different social contexts and population groups. Given this, the present study aims to evaluate whether DM2 diagnosis is associated with FA diagnosis in women living in poverty. This is a cross-sectional, population-based study conducted in a Brazilian capital city. FA was assessed by the modified Yale Food Addiction Scale (mYFAS) 2.0, and DM2 diagnosis was assessed by self-reporting of previous medical diagnosis. The association was assessed by multivariable Poisson regression with robust variance estimation adjusted for age, poverty situation, race/skin colour, physical activity and BMI. A total of 1878 women were included, of whom 15·1 % had FA and 3·2 % had a medical diagnosis of DM2. In the multivariable analysis, the medical diagnosis of DM2 was associated with FA (prevalence ratio, PR: 2·18; 95 % CI (1·26, 3·76)). The DM2 diagnosis was also identified to be associated with role interference (PR: 1·93; 95 % CI (1·01, 3·67)) symptom of FA. In conclusion, a positive association between FA and DM2 in women living in poverty was observed, information that adds to the current evidence already available in the literature, pointing to a new line of research and integrated care.

The study objectives were to determine whether consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF) and eating patterns are associated with food addiction (FA) in a Brazilian sample. This is a cross-sectional study. The Brazilian Food and Nutrition Surveillance System tool assessed food consumption markers and dietary patterns. The modified Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0 was used to determine FA. 5946 participants were included with a mean age of 24 ± 6 years, and 4371 (73.5%) were female. After statistical adjustments for confounders, individuals with FA had lower consumption of fresh fruits (PR: 0.88; 95%CI: [0.79; 0.97]), vegetables (PR: 0.87; 95%CI: [0.79; 0.97]), and beans (PR: 0.85; 95%CI: [0.77; 0.95]). They also had higher consumption of UPF: hamburgers/sausages (PR: 1.15; 95%CI: [1.04; 1.27]), instant noodles, packaged snacks, and/or salty cookies (PR: 1.27; 95%CI: [1.13; 1.42]), and sandwich cookies, sweets, and/or treats (PR: 1.26; 95%CI: [1.14; 1.40]). Positive associations between FA and having meals in front of the screen (PR: 1.48; 95%CI: [1.28; 1.71]) and having a late-night snack (PR: 1.24; 95%CI: [1.11; 1.39]) remained. The negative association between FA and skipping breakfast (PR: 0.76; 95%CI: [0.68; 0.85]) also remained. These eating patterns may contribute to FA, which could be potential targets for clinical intervention.

The food addiction construct is receiving increasing attention from researchers and clinicians worldwide. Given its rise, scientific production on the subject is increasingly abundant. Conducting studies evaluating food addiction in emerging countries is of great importance, given that most scientific production comes from high-income countries. A recent study aimed to explore the prevalences of orthorexia nervosa and food addiction and their associations with dietary diversity in university students in Bangladesh during the COVID-19 pandemic. This correspondence presents questions about using the older version of the modified Yale Food Addiction Scale to assess food addiction. It also highlights issues related to the prevalence of food addiction observed in the study.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: "Pocket formulas" are practical alternatives for calculating an individual's total energy expenditure (TEE). Typically, more sophisticated predictive equations are used, such as the new equations proposed in the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI). Nevertheless, these new equations necessitate estimating physical activity levels (PALs). The aim of this study was to compare the use of pocket formulas (kcal/kg of body weight) with the new predictive equations for energy expenditure proposed by the DRI (2023) in healthy women and with the doubly labeled water (DLW) method to predict TEE. METHODS: The TEEs of healthy adult women were measured by DLW and calculated using the pocket formulas (× 20, × 25, × 30, and × 35 kcal/kg of body weight) and the new DRI equation. PALs by triaxial accelerometers were also collected. RESULTS: The study included 55 women. For the entire sample, the × 30 pocket formula had the lowest bias (-6%; limits of agreement [LOAs]: -39.8; 27.5; root mean square error: 373.4) and the highest precision (42%). The pocket formulas showed reasonable agreement in the different body mass index categories compared with the results found by the 2023 DRI proposal. For individuals with normal weight, the agreement was × 35 kcal/kg: bias (%) = -4.8; LoA = -41.5; 31.8, with overweight, it was × 30 kcal/kg: bias (%) = -2.2; LoA = -25.1; 20.6, and with obesity, it was × 30 kcal/kg: bias (%) = 4.2; LoA = -21.1; 29.4. CONCLUSION: Pocket formulas provide a reasonable agreement with TEE in healthy, sedentary, or low-active adult women, which may be a more simplistic strategy when there is no PAL data for calculating the DRI equations.

This ecological study aimed to analyze the trend of the nutritional status of pregnant adolescent beneficiaries of the Brazilian Bolsa Família conditional cash transfer program in the 2008-2018 period. We evaluated secondary data of pregnant adolescent beneficiaries of the Bolsa Família Program from January 2008 to December 2018, extracted from the public reports of the WEB Food and Nutrition Surveillance System. We accessed the monitoring reports on the consolidated public-access health conditionalities of the Bolsa Família Program, always considering the second validity. An annual variation of -1.2% (95%CI: [-1.6; -0.8] p<0.01) was observed in the prevalence of underweight in Brazil in the studied sample. The prevalence of overweight and obesity in the country had annual variations of 2.9% (95%CI: [2.0; 3.7] p<0.01) and 7.5% (95%CI: [5.7; 9.3] p<0.01), respectively. We conclude by saying, that, in the evaluated period, the prevalence of underweight among pregnant adolescent beneficiaries of the Bolsa Família Program showed a decreasing trend, while the prevalence of overweight and obesity increased throughout Brazil.

BACKGROUND & AIMS: The phase angle (PA) has been used as an indicator of prognosis and nutritional status because it reflects the integrity of the individuals' cellular function. In contrast to the investigations that assessed acute malnutrition (weight deficit) and PA in children, studies that evaluated the relationship of this indicator with stunting (height deficit) are still scarce and inconclusive. Thus, we aim to investigate whether there are differences in PA according to the classifications of the height-for-age (H/A) index of children under five years of age. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study carried out in a nutritional recovery center, in households, and in a daycare center in Maceió-Alagoas, Brazil. Anthropometric data were collected, and resistance and reactance were obtained through the use of tetrapolar electrical bioimpedance, from children aged 2-5 years. The PA and the percentage of body fat were calculated. Children were divided into 3 groups: adequate H/A, at-risk of stunting and stunted. Analysis of covariance for the main outcome was performed using age, sex, and the body mass index-to-age as covariates, and the H/A classification as the exposure. RESULTS: The mean children's PA in the adequate H/A group was 3.9° [95% CI 3.6-4.2], while in the group at-risk of stunting and stunted it was 4.5° [95% CI 4.3-4.7] and 4.6° [95% CI 4.4-4.8], respectively, showing statistical difference (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: In the present sample, stunted children have higher PA values than children with adequate H/A.

Resumo Objetivo Verificar se o risco de sarcopenia em pessoas idosas diagnosticadas com covid-19 associa-se com demanda por cuidados intensivos, ventilação mecânica e óbito. Método Estudo multicêntrico do tipo coorte, que incluiu pessoas idosas (≥65 anos) com diagnóstico laboratorial confirmado de covid-19. Foram coletados dados relacionados às características sociodemográficas, clínicas e nutricionais. O risco de sarcopenia foi avaliado pelo questionário Sarcopenia Risk Screening. As variáveis de desfecho foram: necessidade de terapia intensiva, ventilação mecânica e óbito. Foram realizadas regressões logísticas para verificar a associação dos desfechos clínicos e o risco de sarcopenia, com as seguintes variáveis de ajuste: idade, sexo, renda familiar, atividade física, hipertensão, diabetes, doença cardiovascular doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica e índice de massa corporal. Resultados Foram incluídas no estudo 264 pessoas idosas com covid-19, com média de idade de 71,7 (±8,2) anos. Cento e quarenta e oito pessoas idosas (56,1%) tinham risco de sarcopenia. Hipertensão, diabetes e doença cardiovascular foram as principais comorbidades identificadas nas pessoas idosas, respectivamente, 75,4%, 45,5% e 28,4%. O risco de sarcopenia nas pessoas idosas hospitalizadas com covid-19 aumentou em mais de 2 vezes as chances de internamento na UTI (OR: 2,71 [1,57;4,68], p<0,001), em cerca de 5 vezes as chances de ventilação mecânica (OR: 5,19 [2,75;9,78], p<0,001) e em mais de 3 vezes as chances de óbito (OR: 4,05 [2,05;7,98], p<0,001). Conclusão Em pessoas idosas hospitalizadas com covid-19, a pré-existência do risco de sarcopenia foi preditor de desfechos clínicos desfavoráveis.
Abstract Objective To investigate whether the risk of sarcopenia in older adults diagnosed with covid-19 is associated with the need for intensive care, mechanical ventilation, and mortality. Method A multicenter cohort study was conducted, including older adults (≥65 years) with laboratory-confirmed covid-19 diagnosis. Data related to sociodemographic, clinical, and nutritional characteristics were collected. The risk of sarcopenia was assessed using the Sarcopenia Risk Screening questionnaire. Outcome variables included the need for intensive care, mechanical ventilation, and mortality. Logistic regressions were performed to assess the association between clinical outcomes and the risk of sarcopenia, adjusting for the following variables: age, gender, family income, physical activity, hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and body mass index. Results The study included 264 older adults with covid-19, with an average age of 71.7 (±8.2) years. One hundred and forty-eight older adults (56.1%) were at risk of sarcopenia. Hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease were the most common comorbidities identified in older adults, at 75.4%, 45.5%, and 28.4%, respectively. The presence of sarcopenia risk in hospitalized older adults with covid-19 increased the odds of ICU admission by more than 2-fold (OR: 2.71 [1.57; 4.68], p<0.001), nearly 5-fold for mechanical ventilation (OR: 5.19 [2.75; 9.78], p<0.001), and over 3-fold for mortality (OR: 4.05 [2.05; 7.98], p<0.001). Conclusion In hospitalized older adults with covid-19, pre-existing risk of sarcopenia was a predictor of unfavorable clinical outcomes.
RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Objective: This study aimed to assess the agreement between the total energy expenditure (TEE) estimated by the activPAL® triaxial accelerometers (ACC) and the TEE measured by the doubly labeled water method (DLW), as well as to assess if these values differ between the classifications of body mass index (BMI). Materials and methods: This is a cross-sectional study. Low-income adult women (19-45y) with BMI ≥ 18.5 kg/m2 were included. Accelerometry data (activPAL®) were collected over 7 consecutive days, which were used to calculate TEE-ACC and compared with DLW data. The Bland-Altman method, concordance correlation coefficient and root mean square error were used to assess agreement between methods. Results: The sample consisted of 55 women with a mean age of 31 ± 5 years. The agreement between TEE-ACC and TEE-DLW showed a bias of -142.5 kcal (-7.1%). Among the BMI classifications, participants with normal weight show a bias of -417.1 kcal (-21.0%), participants with overweight, -87.5 kcal (-3.9%) and participants with obesity, 97.5 kcal (4.3%). Furthermore, the bias between the methods showed a significant and positive correlation with the body weight (r = 0.49; p < 0.01). Conclusion: The TEE-ACC estimates from activPAL® were reasonably accurate when compared to the TEE-DLW, especially in women with overweight and obesity, being much less accurate in individuals with normal weight.
RESUMEN
Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are a serious public health problem in Brazil and comprise one of the causes of absence from work. However, its occurrence can be avoided if there is an early identification of cardiovascular risk factors. Objective: To investigate the frequency of cardiovascular risk factors in employees of an industry in Alagoas and to investigate differences in their occurrence between the sectors of work. Methods: This is an analytical cross-sectional, carried out in February 2019, with employees from the administrative sector and the operational sector of an industry in Alagoas. Sociodemographic, anthropometric, clinical and lifestyle data were collected. Altered blood pressure, anthropometric indicators of cardiovascular risk, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity and personal or family history of chronic diseases were considered as cardiovascular risk factors. The statistical analysis was performed with the statistical package R, using the package Rcmdr. In order to ascertain possible differences between risk factors in employees of the administrative sector and the operational sector, the t test for independent samples was performed, when continuous variables, and the Pearson chi-square test was performed, when categorical variables, adopting a level significance of 5%. Results: 56 employees were evaluated, with a mean age of 33 ± 8.5 years. Of these, 80.4% were male, 62.5% were overweight, 58.9% consumed alcohol, 53.6% performed some physical activity and 51.8% had a cardiovascular family history. There was no difference in the occurrence of these factors between the sectors of work. Conclusion: The most frequent cardiovascular risk factors were overweight, alcohol consumption and presence of family history, with no difference being identified between workers in the operational sector and the administrative sector. However, the presence of these factors is worrying, mainly because it is a relatively young sample (AU)

Objetivo:O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o uso de um tempero à base de ervas em preparações proteicas como estratégia para a redução da ingestão de sódio por comensais atendidos em uma Unidade de Alimentação e Nutrição (UAN). Material e Métodos:Trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado em uma UAN de uma fábrica. O tempero à base de ervas foi desenvolvido com o auxílio das cozinheiras da unidade. A composição nutricional das preparações proteicas foi determinada com o auxílio de tabelas de composição de alimentos. Para avaliar a aceitação das preparações, foram realizadas análises sensoriais de duas preparações culinárias: peito de frango e acém bovino adicionados do tempero à base de ervas. Foram considerados os seguintes atributos: cor, textura, aroma, aparência e avaliação global, em uma escala hedônica de 9 pontos que varia de "desgostei muitíssimo" a "gostei muitíssimo". O índice de aceitabilidade também foi calculado para todos os atributos. Resultados: Quarenta e um juízes consumidores foram recrutados para realizar a análise sensorial. Houve uma redução importante nos níveis de sódio de 60,2% (de 939,2 mg para 375,3 mg) e 23,3% (de 709,7 mg para 544,0 mg) por 100g de peito de frango e acém bovino, respectivamente, e um aumento no teor de fibra das preparações que receberam o tempero à base de ervas. O índice de aceitação global de peito de frango temperado e filé de carne bovina foi de 87,8% e 83,8%, respectivamente. Conclusão: A substituição de temperos ultraprocessados por temperos à base de ervas em preparações de proteínas foi bem aceita entre comensais da UAN.
Objective:This study aimed to evaluate the use of a herbs-based seasoning in protein preparations as a strategy for reducing sodium intake by diners served at a Food and Nutrition Unit (FNU). Material and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study carried out in a FNU factory. The herbs-based seasoning was developed with the help of the unit's cooks. The proximate composition of protein preparations was determined with the aid of food composition tables. To assess the acceptance of the preparations, a sensory analysis was performed for two culinary preparations: chicken breast and beef chuck steak added with the herbs-based seasoning. The following attributes were considered for evaluating colour, texture, aroma, appearance and overall evaluation, on a 9-point hedonic scale ranging from "I disliked a lot" to "I liked a lot". The acceptability index was also calculated for all attributes. Results: Forty-one consumer judges were recruited to perform the sensory analysis. There was an important reduction in sodium levels of 60.2% (from 939.2 mg to 375.3 mg) and 23.3% (from 709.7 mg to 544.0 mg) per 100g of chicken breast and beef chuck steak, respectively, and an increase in the fiber content of the preparations that received the herbs-based seasoning. The global acceptance index of seasoned chicken breast and beef chuck steak was 87.8% and 83.8%, respectively. Conclusion: The substitution of ultra-processed seasoning for herbs-based seasoning in protein preparations was well accepted among FNU diners.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: To determine the association between diagnosis of COVID-19 and the economic class, race/skin color, and adherence to social distancing in Brazilian university students. Methods: This is a nationwide cross-sectional study carried out with online questionnaires applied to Brazilian university students, at 94 universities in the public and private education network. Self-reported age, sex, economic class data, race/skin color, COVID-19 diagnosis, and adherence to social distancing measures were collected. Results: 5,984 individuals were evaluated. No significant association was found between the diagnosis of COVID-19 and economic class and race/skin color in the multivariable analysis. However, we observed that there were significant associations between the diagnosis of COVID-19 and partial adherence to social distancing, with leaving home only for going to work (PR: 1.35; 95% CI: 1.101.66; p < 0.01) and with non-adherence to social distancing (PR: 1.96; 95% CI: 1.292.97; p <0.01). Conclusion: The diagnosis of COVID-19 was associated with age, non-adherence and partial adherence to social distancing measures in Brazilian university students, but was not associated with race/skin color and economic class.
Objetivo: Verificar a associação entre o diagnóstico de COVID-19 e a classe econômica, raça/cor da pele e adesão às medidas ao distanciamento social em universitários brasileiros. Métodos: Estudo transversal, de abrangência nacional, realizado com universitários brasileiros. Foram coletados dados autorreferidos de idade, sexo, classe econômica, raça/cor, diagnóstico do COVID-19 e adesão às medidas de distanciamento social. Resultados: 5.984 indivíduos foram avaliados. Não foi encontrada associação significativa entre o diagnóstico de COVID-19, a classe econômica e raça/cor na análise multivariável. Observamos que houve associações significativas entre o diagnóstico de COVID-19 e adesão parcial ao distanciamento social (RP: 1,35; IC 95%: 1.101.66; p < 0,01) e com a não adesão ao distanciamento social (RP: 1,96; IC95%: 1.292.97; p < 0,01). Conclusão: O diagnóstico de COVID-19 foi associado à idade, não adesão e adesão parcial às medidas de distanciamento social em universitários brasileiros, mas não se associou à raça/cor e classe econômica.
