RESUMO

Introduction: Background: changes in body composition (BC) are common in interstitial lung disease, which leads to an increased risk of complications and infections, and are associated with poor quality of life and worse outcomes. BC assessment is important to identify malnutrition and sarcopenia. However, gold-standard techniques are not available in all clinical settings. Aims: this study aimed to evaluate the agreement and reliability of body composition estimated by bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA) and measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) in women with interstitial lung disease. Methods: this is a cross-sectional study. BC (fat mass and appendicular skeletal muscle mass) were assessed using BIA multifrequency and DEXA in standardized conditions. Agreement and reliability between techniques were evaluated using Bland-Altman plots and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Results: a total of 50 women were evaluated. No differences were observed for FM (BIA, 25.8 ± 10.2 kg and DEXA, 26.3 ± 10.0 kg, p = 0.77) and ASMM (BIA, 14.1 ± 2.7 kg and DEXA, 13.9 ± 2.3 kg, p = 0.83). Based on ICC, good reliability was observed for FM (ICC, 0.98) and ASMM (ICC, 0.93). Conclusion: BC estimated by BIA showed good agreement and reliability with DEXA measurements. In the absence of this method, BIA can replace the DEXA technique for body composition assessment.


Introducción: Introducción: los cambios en la composición corporal son comunes en la enfermedad pulmonar intersticial, lo cual incrementa el riesgo de complicaciones e infecciones, además de asociarse a peor calidad de vida y peores desenlaces clínicos. La evaluación de la composición corporal es importante para identificar la desnutrición y la sarcopenia, sin embargo, las técnicas consideradas "estándar de oro" no se encuentran disponibles en todos los entornos clínicos. Objetivo: este estudio tiene por objetivo evaluar la validez y concordancia de los parámetros de composición corporal obtenidos por análisis de bioimpedancia eléctrica (BIA) en comparación con la técnica de absorciometría de rayos X de doble energía (DEXA) en mujeres con enfermedad pulmonar intersticial. Métodos: estudio transversal donde se midió la composición corporal (masa grasa y masa muscular apendicular esquelética) utilizando un equipo de bioimpedancia eléctrica multifrecuencia y DEXA en condiciones estandarizadas. Se evaluó la concordancia y validez entre las técnicas utilizando gráficos Bland-Altman y el coeficiente de correlación intraclase (CCI). Resultados: se evaluaron un total de 50 mujeres. No se observaron diferencias en los valores de masa grasa (BIA: 25,8 ± 10,2 kg y DEXA: 26,3 ± 10,0 kg, p = 0,77), ni en los de masa muscular apendicular esquelética (BIA: 14,1 ± 2,7 kg y DEXA: 13,9 ± 2,3 kg, p = 0,83). Acorde a los valores del CCI, se observa una validez buena para los valores de masa grasa (CCI: 0,98) y de masa muscular apendicular esquelética (CCI: 0,93). Conclusión: la composición corporal estimada por BIA muestra una buena concordancia y validez con el resultado obtenido por DEXA en mujeres con enfermedad pulmonar intersticial. En ausencia de este método, la BIA puede utilizarse para la valoración de la composición corporal en este grupo de pacientes.

RESUMO

Postpartum depression (PPD) is a serious complication of childbearing affecting ∼1 in 7 mothers. Left unrecognized and untreated, it is associated with negative outcomes for mothers and their infants. Building upon research suggesting that, for some women, hormonal fluctuations after childbirth contribute to the onset of depression, clinical trials have found promise in a novel treatment approach, brexanolone infusion. In 2019, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved brexanolone as the first medication with an indication specifically for PPD. Delivering brexanolone treatment to patients in need requires overcoming some logistical and clinical challenges that are unique to this approach. This brief report describes the process by which a university-affiliated obstetric-gynecologic hospital in the northeast United States successfully implemented a program to administer this novel treatment to women with PPD.
