ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Endocrinology and Nutrition (EyN) is an outpatient and hospital medical specialty. This study aims to understand the evolution of the activity of interdepartmental consultation (IC) carried out by EyN in hospitalization floor of a third level hospital, comparing its evolution with other medical specialties, and comparing endocrine IC with nutritional IC. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Longitudinal and retrospective study which analyzes IC notes of EyN and other medical specialties between 01-01-2013 and 31-12-2022. RESULTS: A total of 76093 IC notes (12623 patients) were performed by the EyN service (average age 65.4 years; 59% male) with an average of 4.8 notes per patient. Average annual growth was 7% in notes and 4% in patients (versus 6% and 3% of all other medical services, differences statistically significant). Of all patients hospitalized for 4 or more days, EyN went from attending 7.9% (2013) to 12.3% (2022). 66% of the IC performed by EyN was for nutritional cause and 34% for other pathologies. CONCLUSIONS: The EyN service is the one that most patients attend in hospital IC activity, with growth over the last few years greater than other medical specialties. Nutritional pathology is the main reason for IC.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: The main aim was to compare the effects of two parenteral lipid emulsions on retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) incidence, severity, and need for treatment. Secondary aim was to compare the effect on weight gain in the first 6 weeks of life. METHODS: Single-center, observational, retrospective study analyzing preterm infants with a gestational age < 31 weeks and a birth weight < 1,251 g, born between April 2015 and December 2018. The infants' medical records were reviewed to collect clinical data. Parenteral nutrition details were obtained from the hospital pharmacy database. RESULTS: In total, 180 patients were included: 90 received ClinOleic® and 90 received SMOFlipid®. No significant differences were observed for the incidence of ROP (40% in ClinOleic® group and 41% in SMOFlipid® group, p=0.88) or ROP requiring treatment (4% and 10% respectively, p=0.152). Weekly weight gain was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed no difference between the two groups regarding ROP, ROP requiring treatment or weekly weight gain in the first 6 weeks of life.

ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality of Brazilian school meals. Cross-sectional study that used 2785 daily menus, from 557 municipalities in the country, offered between 2022 and 2024, in elementary schools. For evaluation, the Quality Index for School Meal Menus Revised was used. It was observed that the majority of menus presented intermediate quality (70.74%) and the other categories presented similar frequencies. The groups of cereals and tubers; vegetables; and fruits were the most frequent, followed by legumes; red meat; and eggs, chicken and fish. Already ultra-processed; regional foods appeared on a quarter of the menus; dairy products; candy; processed foods; and time compatibility; socio-biodiversity foods and sweet regional preparations were less frequent. This study provides an overview of Brazilian school meals with a high frequency of fresh and minimally processed foods. However, it was also possible to observe the presence of foods that are not allowed in school meals.


El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la calidad de la alimentación escolar brasileña. Estudio transversal que utilizó 2785 menús diarios, de 557 municipios del país, ofrecidos entre 2022 y 2024, en escuelas primarias. Para la evaluación se utilizó el Índice de Calidad de Menús de Alimentación Escolar Revisado. Se observó que la mayoría de los menús presentaron calidad intermedia (70,74%) y las demás categorías presentaron frecuencias similares. Los grupos de cereales y tubérculos; hortalizas y verduras; y las frutas fueron las más frecuentes, seguidas de las legumbres; carne roja; y huevos y carne blanca. Ya ultraprocesados; los alimentos regionales aparecían en una cuarta parte de los menús; productos lácteos; dulce; alimentos procesados; y compatibilidad horaria; fueron menos frecuentes los alimentos de sociobiodiversidad y las preparaciones dulces regionales. Este estudio ofrece una visión general de la alimentación escolar brasileña con alta frecuencia de alimentos frescos y mínimamente procesados. Sin embargo, también fue posible observar la presencia de alimentos no permitidos en la alimentación escolar.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To explore the needs, motivations, and limitations related to healthy eating and digital materials, as well as to identify patterns for their design as a strategy aimed at Mexican families. DESIGN: A qualitative observational study of the phenomenon through focus group sessions. LOCATION: A public primary education center in the city of Querétaro, Mexico. PARTICIPANTS: Children aged 9 to 11 years and parents, mothers, or caregivers with children in primary education. METHOD: Twelve sessions were conducted with three groups of students and two sessions with parents, mothers, or caregivers using an interview guide. Various digital materials, developed based on social cognitive theory, were presented during the sessions. The sessions were recorded with the participants' or their guardians' prior consent and transcribed for analysis. Coding was performed for key points of analysis, and information saturation was confirmed. RESULTS: Students expressed motivation towards digital material that promotes play and experimentation, especially within the family context. The main perceived barrier was the caregivers' resistance to change. Parents expressed motivation and a need for explanatory material on diseases, with economic and time-related barriers. CONCLUSIONS: Digital material based on social cognitive theory, designed to improve nutrition, can be an effective strategy in nutritional education if it considers the circumstances of the target population. It is advisable to include affective and behavioral elements to achieve meaningful learning within households.

Existe una herramienta, desarrollada en Estados Unidos, de evaluación de la alimentación pediátrica (PediEAT), que permite identificar síntomas problemáticos. Objetivo. Realizar una adaptación transcultural para una versión argentina, con adecuación cultural y equivalencia semántica respecto a su versión original. Población y métodos. Se utilizó una versión autoadministrada del PediEAT que fue respondida por familias y/o cuidadores de niños de 6 meses a 7 años. Se realizó una primera fase de evaluación de validez del contenido con un grupo de expertos. Luego, una fase de pretest con familias mediante entrevistas cognitivas para comprobar la comprensión de las palabras y frases. Se realizaron las modificaciones necesarias para que quedara adaptada al contexto. Resultados. En la fase de evaluación de validez del contenido con el grupo de 8 expertos, de los 80 ítems se modificaron 36. En el pretest, se realizaron entrevistas cognitivas a 18 cuidadores; se realizaron cambios en 11 ítems para mejorar la comprensión por parte de la población argentina. La versión argentina fue aprobada por los autores originales. Conclusiones. El instrumento PediEAT versión argentina resulta lingüísticamente equivalente a su versión original, lo que permite su uso para la detección de problemáticas alimentarias en niños.


Introduction. During childhood, children may experience some degree of difficulty eating. A tool (PediEAT) has been developed in the United States and is available to assess pediatric eating and to identify problematic symptoms. Objective. To obtain an Argentine version that is transculturally adapted, culturally adequate, and semantically equivalent to the original version. Population and methods. A self-administered version of the PediEAT was used and completed by families and/or caregivers of children aged 6 months to 7 years. In the first phase, content validity was assessed by a group of experts. This was followed by a pre-test phase with families using cognitive interviews to test word and phrase comprehension. The necessary changes were made to obtain a version adapted to the context. Results. The tool's content validity was assessed by a group of 8 experts; as a result, 36 of the 80 items were changed. During the pre-test phase, cognitive interviews were conducted with 18 caregivers; 11 items were changed to improve comprehension by the Argentine population. The Argentine version was approved by the original authors. Conclusions. The Argentine version of the PediEAT tool is linguistically equivalent to the original version, and this allows its use to screen for feeding problems in children.

ABSTRACT

Objetivos: el objetivo de este estudio fue comparar la lactancia y los factores relacionados (edad, nivel educativo, edad al momento del primer embarazo, etc.) y las prácticas de alimentación complementaria de las madres refugiadas sirias y las madres turcas. Materiales y métodos: este estudio descriptivo y comparativo analizó las características nutricionales de los bebés de 9 a 60 meses de edad cuyas madres fueran turcas o refugiadas sirias que asistieron al Hospital Público de Kiziltepe entre enero y julio de 2022. Resultados: se incluyó a 204 madres (126 turcas y 78 sirias). La edad promedio de las madres turcas era 27,60 ± 5,17 años y la de las refugiadas sirias, 28,91 ± 5,62 años, sin una diferencia significativa entre ambos grupos (p: 0,091). La lactancia materna posparto fue del 91,3 % y la duración de la lactancia fue de 12 meses (0-24) en las ciudadanas turcas, mientras que, en las refugiadas sirias, fue del 84,6 % y 9 meses (0-24), respectivamente (consumo de leche materna, p: 0,144; tiempo de consumo, p: 0,161; sin diferencias estadísticas). El 23,8 % de las ciudadanas turcas y el 5,1 % de las refugiadas sirias recibieron capacitación sobre la lactancia, con una diferencia significativa entre ambos grupos (p: 0,001). Conclusión: en los grupos de refugiadas, las prácticas de nutrición infantil y materna se ven alteradas. En colaboración con las organizaciones locales e internacionales y los organismos estatales que ayudan a los grupos de refugiados se podrían mejorar las prácticas de nutrición maternoinfantil y reducir las brechas.


Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare breastfeeding and related factors (age, level of education, age at first pregnancy, etc.), and complementary feeding practices between Syrian refugee and native Turkish mothers. Material and methods: This descriptive-comparative study examined the nutritional characteristics of infants aged 9 to 60 months whose mothers were Turkish or Syrian refugees who attended Kiziltepe State Hospital between January 2022 and July 2022. Results: 204 mothers (126 Turkish and 78 Syrian) who had a child aged 9-60 months were included. The average age of the mothers was 27.60 ± 5.17 years for Turkish citizens and 28.91 ± 5.62 for Syrian refugees, without significant difference between the two groups (p: 0.091). Postpartum breastfeeding was 91.3% and breastfeeding duration was 12 (0-24) months in Turkish citizens; in Syrian refugees, breastfeeding was 84.6% and average breastfeeding time was 9 (0- 24) months (respectively, breast milk intake p: 0.144, uptake time p: 0.161; no statistical difference). Breastfeeding training was received by 23.8% of Turkish citizens and 5.1% of Syrian refugees; there was a significant difference between the two groups (p: 0.001). Conclusion: In refugee groups, infant and maternal nutrition practices are disrupted. Working in conjunction with local and international organizations and state agencies that give help to refugee groups, the appropriate interventions, initiatives, supports, and awareness-raising activities would strive to improve practices in mother and baby nutrition and narrow gaps.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. Contar con los datos del consumo de alimentos ultraprocesados en los niños resulta importante para planificar políticas públicas. Objetivos. Describir la prevalencia de consumo de alimentos ultraprocesados en menores de 2 años e identificar factores asociados. Describir la proporción que los alimentos ultraprocesados representan del número total de los alimentos consumidos en el día. Métodos. Análisis secundario de los datos de niños entre 6 y 23 meses de edad con al menos un recordatorio de 24 horas de consumo de alimentos de la Segunda Encuesta Nacional de Nutrición y Salud de Argentina del año 2018. Se estudiaron como variables principales: "consumo de alimentos ultraprocesados" (según el sistema NOVA) categorizada en sí/no y la "proporción de ultraprocesados del total de alimentos consumidos". Los factores asociados explorados fueron lactancia materna, sexo, edad y el número de alimentos no ultraprocesados consumidos. Se realizó un modelo de regresión logística multivariable y se aplicó un factor de expansión para ponderar los datos. Resultados. Se incluyeron 4224 niños (ponderado 908 104). La prevalencia de consumo de ultraprocesados fue del 90,8 % (IC95%: 89,5-92) y fue asociado con mayor edad (OR 3,21; IC95% 2,28-4,52) y con el número de alimentos no ultraprocesados consumidos (OR 1,17; IC95% 1,13-1,23). Los ultraprocesados representaron una mediana del 20 % (RIC: 12,5-28,6 %) del total de alimentos consumidos en el día. Conclusiones. Este estudio señala la alta penetración de los alimentos ultraprocesados en la alimentación complementaria.


Introduction. The availability of data on the consumption of ultra-processed foods among children is important for planning public policies. Objectives. To describe the prevalence of consumption of ultra-processed foods in children under 2 years of age and identify associated factors. To describe the proportion that ultra-processed foods represent out of the total number of foods consumed in a day. Methods. Secondary analysis of data from children aged 6­23 months with at least a 24-hour recall of food consumption based on the Second National Survey on Nutrition and Health of Argentina (2018). The following primary variables were studied: "consumption of ultra-processed foods" (according to the NOVA system) categorized into yes/no and "proportion of ultra-processed out of total foods consumed." The following associated factors were studied: breastfeeding, sex, age, and number of non-ultra-processed foods consumed. A multivariate logistic regression model was developed and an expansion factor was applied to weight the data. Results. A total of 4224 children were included (weighed: 908 104). The prevalence of ultra-processed food consumption was 90.8% (95% CI: 89.5­92) and was associated with an older age (OR: 3.21, 95% CI: 2.28­4.52) and the number of non-ultra-processed foods consumed (OR: 1.17, 95% CI: 1.13­1.23). Ultra-processed foods accounted for a median 20% (IQR: 12.5­28.6%) of all foods consumed in a day. Conclusions. This study highlights the high penetration of ultra-processed foods in complementary feeding.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: A deficiência de vitamina D durante a gestação e a lactação pode repercutir negativamente no desenvolvimento fetal e infantil, devido seu papel fundamental nos sistemas imunológico, cardíaco, ósseo, muscular e neural. Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão de literatura para integrar estudos que evidenciam a deficiência de vitamina D em gestantes e lactantes, e os fatores de risco associados a essa carência. Metodologia: Foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico entre agosto e outubro de 2021, com atualização entre outubro e novembro de 2022 através de pesquisas às bases Pubmed e Scielo, bem como às listas de referências dos artigos selecionados. Foram empregados os descritores consumo alimentar, vitamina D, deficiência de vitamina D, gestantes e lactantes, usando-se o operador booleano AND para a associação entre eles. Como critérios de inclusão foram adotados o tipo de estudo (epidemiológicos, ensaios clínicos e revisões integrativa e sistemática), o idioma (espanhol, inglês e português) e o período de publicação (2010 a 2022). Resultados: Evidenciou-se que existem vários fatores de riscos para a inadequação do status de vitamina D em gestantes e lactantes como a baixa exposição da pele à luz solar e fatores relacionados (uso excessivo de protetor solar, menor tempo de atividades ao ar livre, clima, religião e hábitos culturais, maior escolaridade);a pigmentação mais escura da pele; o baixo consumo alimentar de vitamina D e variáveis associadas; a menor idade materna; o primeiro trimestre gestacional; a primiparidade e o excesso de tecido adiposo. Conclusões: Em gestantes e lactantes, a carência de vitamina D associa-se a distintos fatores, com destaque principalmente para a baixa exposição à luz solar, a pigmentação mais escura da pele e o excesso de tecido adiposo, sendo de extrema importância que sejam abordados com cautela, visando ações voltadas a variáveis modificáveis, de modo a auxiliar na redução da hipovitaminose D nestes grupos (AU).


Introduction: Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy and breastfeeding can have a negative impact on fetal and infant development due to its fundamental role in the immune, cardiac, bone, muscular and neural systems. Objective: To conduct a literature review to integrate studies which show the Vitamin D deficiency in pregnant andlactating women, and the risk factors associated with this deficiency. Methodology: A bibliographic survey was carried out between August and October 2021, with an update between October and November 2022 through searches in the Pubmed and Scielo databases, as well as the reference lists of the selected articles. The descriptors food consumption, vitamin D, vitamin D deficiency, pregnant and lactating women were used, using the Boolean operator AND for the association between them. The type of study (epidemiological, clinical trials and integrative and systematic reviews), language (Spanish, English and Portuguese) and publication period (2010 to 2022) was adopted as inclusion criteria.Results:It was shown that there are several risk factors for inadequate vitamin D status in pregnant and lactating women, such as low skin exposure to sunlight and related factors (excessive use of sunscreen, less time spent outdoors, climate, religion and cultural habits, higher education); darker skin pigmentation; low dietary intake of vitamin D and associated variables; the lowest maternal age; the first gestational trimester; primiparity and excess adipose tissue.Conclusions: Vitamin D deficiency in pregnant and lactating women is associated with different factors, witha main emphasis on low exposure to sunlight, darker skin pigmentation and excess adipose tissue. Furthermore, it is extremely important that these factors are approached with caution, implementing actions aimed at modifiable variables in order to help reduce hypovitaminosis D in these groups (AU).

ABSTRACT

Introducción: la teleconsulta es una herramienta asistencial útil en el manejo multidisciplinar de pacientes con indicación de nutrición enteral domiciliaria (NED). El empleo de diferentes herramientas de teleconsulta de NED, como ocurre en el Sistema Andaluz de Salud (SAS), conlleva heterogeneidad en los procesos de derivación entre los servicios de Atención Primaria (AP) y hospitalaria en una misma región. Objetivos: consensuar perfiles de pacientes y conjunto de datos mínimos necesarios para garantizar una derivación adecuada a la teleconsulta de NED, independientemente de la herramienta existente. Estos aspectos consensuados en Andalucía pueden servir de referencia en otras regiones. Métodos: se siguieron tres pasos consecutivos: a) revisión no sistemática de la literatura indexada sobre la teleconsulta en nutrición clínica en España; b) encuesta para conocer la implementación y las necesidades no satisfechas de las herramientas de teleconsulta en los hospitales públicos andaluces; y c) reuniones de trabajo y consenso de 14 profesionales sanitarios de AP (n = 4) y endocrinología y nutrición clínica hospitalaria (n = 10). Resultados: se consensuaron tres formularios de derivación en los que se definieron tres perfiles de pacientes, con el correspondiente conjunto mínimo de datos necesario para solicitar la teleconsulta de NED. El equipo de AP debe proporcionar este conjunto mínimo de datos al especialista en nutrición clínica a través de una herramienta de teleconsulta, implementada en el SAS. Conclusiones: tres formularios consensuados entre profesionales sanitarios involucrados en el proceso de derivación sirven para estandarizar la solicitud de teleconsulta de NED entre equipos asistenciales en función de perfiles de pacientes.(AU)


Introduction: teleconsultation is a useful healthcare tool in the multidisciplinary management of patients with indications of home enteral nutrition (HEN). The use of different teleconsultation platforms, as it happens in the Andalusian Health System (SAS), results in heterogeneous referral processes between Primary Care and hospital services in the same region. Objectives: to establish a consensus on patient profiles and the minimum data set necessary to guarantee an adequate referral to NED teleconsultation regardless of the existing platform. These agreed aspects in Andalusia can serve as a reference in other regions. Methods: three consecutive steps were followed: a) non-systematic review of the indexed literature on teleconsultation in clinical nutrition in Spain; b) survey to know the implementation and unmet needs of teleconsultation platforms in Andalusian public hospitals; and c) working meetings and consensus of 14 health professionals of Primary Care (n = 4) and endocrinology and hospital clinical nutrition (n = 10). Results: three referral forms were agreed in which three patient profiles were defined, with the corresponding minimum set of data necessary to request NED teleconsultation. The Primary Care team should provide this set of data to the clinical nutrition specialist via a teleconsultation platform, implemented in the SAS. Conclusions: three agreed forms between healthcare professionals involved in the referral process serve to standardize the request for teleconsultation of NED between healthcare teams based on patient profiles.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introduction: due to the catabolic characteristics of hemodialysis (HD), patients should consume foods or supplements during this treatment to meet their energy requirements and maintain a neutral nitrogen balance; however, there are some outcomes in which the effect of intradialytic oral nutrition (ION) is scarcely known. Objectives: this study aims to evaluate the effect of two types of ION (liquid and solid) on Quality of Life (QoL), appetite, and safety in HD patients. Methods: a pilot randomized, crossover clinical trial was performed in 18 patients on chronic HD. One group received ION for 18 HD sessions, after the crossover continued for 18 more sessions in the control group, and vice versa. We recorded QoL, appetite, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and intradialytic hypotension (IH) events. Results: clinical improvement was observed for most QoL components. Regardless of the consistency of supplementation, SBP increased to 4.10 mmHg. Both study groups reported a “very good-to-good” appetite. Conclusion: favorable clinical changes were observed in QoL scores during the study. Five of six IH events were reported for patients in the ION group, and SBP increased within the safe range (≤ 10 mmHg); appetite remained stable in both groups. Therefore, we concluded that this strategy, regardless of implementation consistency, is safe to be used in stable patients.(AU)


Introducción: debido a las características catabólicas de la hemodiálisis (HD), los pacientes deben consumir alimentos o suplementos durante este tratamiento para cubrir sus requerimientos energéticos y mantener un balance nitrogenado neutro; sin embargo, existen algunos desenlaces en los que el efecto de la nutrición oral intradialítica (NOID) es poco conocido.Objetivo: este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar el efecto de dos tipos de NOID (líquido y sólido) sobre la calidad de vida, el apetito y la seguridad en pacientes en HD. Métodos: se realizó un estudio piloto en forma de ensayo clínico aleatorizado y cruzado con 18 pacientes en HD crónica. Un grupo recibió NOID durante 18 sesiones de HD, después del cruzamiento continuaron durante 18 sesiones más en el grupo de control, y viceversa. Se registraron la calidad de vida, el apetito, la presión arterial sistólica (PAS) y la hipotensión intradialítica (HI).Resultados: se observó mejoría clínica en la mayoría de los componentes de la calidad de vida. Independientemente de la consistencia de la suplementación, la PAS aumentó hasta 4,10 mmHg. Ambos grupos de estudio informaron de un apetito "muy bueno-bueno". Conclusiones: se observaron cambios clínicos favorables en las puntuaciones de calidad de vida durante el estudio. Cinco de seis eventos de HI se reportaron en pacientes del grupo de NOID y la PAS aumentó dentro del rango seguro (≤ 10 mmHg); el apetito se mantuvo estable en ambos grupos. Por lo tanto, se puede concluir que esta estrategia, independientemente de la consistencia implementada, es segura para ser utilizada en pacientes estables.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Background: the development of specialised nutritional support techniques allows the maintenance of an adequate supply of nutrients in those patients in whom oral feeding is not possible or is insufficient in relation to their requirements, trying to improve the quality of life, especially in those with chronic diseases. Methods: single-center clinical study carried out in a clinical-nutritional center consisting of a medically supervised nasogastric-duodenal tube feeding treatment for overweight, obesity and increased body fat percentage in patients requiring it by means of duodeno-enteral feeding, expecting losses of more than 10 %. Results: twenty-nine patients completed the protocol (20.4 % male and 79.6 % female) with a mean age of 38 years (SD: 12.4); 87.2 kg (SD: 18.5) mean weight; 37.9 kg (SD: 4.8) mean iFat%; 32.4 (SD: 5.4) iMean body mass index (BMI); 100 cm (SD: 16.0) iMean waist; 113.6 cm (SD: 10.4) iMean hip; 33.8 cm (SD: 3.9) iMean upper arm circumference; 65.5 cm (SD: 7.5) iMean thigh circumference; 9.7 (SD: 4.8) iVisceral fat index; and 22.9 days (SD: 13.9) mean treatment. A mean of 22.9 (SD: 13.9) days of MESUDEFT influences weight loss, fat loss, visceral fat loss and decreased arm, hip and thigh circumferences (p < 0.05) (i: initial). Conclusions: MESUDEFT is shown to be an effective alternative as a sole treatment or as an adjunct prior to bariatric surgery for obesity or overweight treatment with a minimum of 10 % loss of BMI and fat mass at completion and 3-6 months follow-up.(AU)


Antecedentes: el desarrollo de técnicas especializadas de soporte nutricional permite mantener un aporte adecuado de nutrientes en aquellos pacientes en los que la alimentación oral no es posible o es insuficiente en relación a sus requerimientos, intentando mejorar la calidad de vida, especialmente de aquellos con enfermedades crónicas. Métodos: estudio clínico unicéntrico prospectivo realizado en un centro clínico-nutricional consistente en un tratamiento con alimentación por sonda nasogástrica-duodenal médicamente supervisado para el sobrepeso, la obesidad y el aumento del porcentaje de grasa corporal en pacientes que lo requieran mediante alimentación duodenoenteral, durante un mes aproximado, con previsión de pérdidas superiores al 10 % y con control posterior entre los tres y los seis meses siguientes. Resultados: veintinueve pacientes completaron el protocolo (20,4 % varones y 79,6 % mujeres) con una edad media de 38 años (DE: 12,4); 87,2 kg (DE: 18,5) iPeso medio; 37,9 kg (DE: 4,8) iGrasa% media; 32,4 (DE: 5,4) iIMC medio; 100 cm (DE: 16,0) iCintura media; 113,6 cm (DE: 10,4) iCadera media; 33,8 cm (DE: 3,9) iCircunferencia braquial media; 65,5 cm (DE: 7,5) circunferencia muslo media; 9,7 (DE: 4,8) iíndice de grasa visceral; y 22,9 días (DE: 13,9) de tratamiento medio. Una media de 22,9 (DE: 13,9) días de MESUDEFT influye en la pérdida de peso, la pérdida de grasa, la pérdida de grasa visceral y la disminución de las circunferencias del brazo, la cadera y el muslo (p < 0,05) (i: inicial). Conclusiones: MESUDEFT se muestra como una alternativa eficaz como tratamiento único o como coadyuvante previo a la cirugía bariátrica de la obesidad o tratamiento del sobrepeso con una pérdida mínima del 10 % del índice de masa corporal (IMC) y de la masa grasa al finalizar y con control durante los siguientes 3-6 meses.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Objectives: this study aimed to explore the potential of the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) as a predictor of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Methods: a cross-sectional study, including data from 4473 participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2017-2018, was performed. A control attenuation parameter (CAP) ≥ 285 dB/m was used to confirm hepatic steatosis. Degrees of liver stiffness were confirmed according to liver stiffness measurement (LSM). Weighted multivariate logistic regression models were used to assess the association between AIP and the risk for MAFLD and liver fibrosis. Finally, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to test the accuracy of AIP in predicting MAFLD. Results: the association between AIP and the prevalence of MAFLD was positive in all three multivariate logistic regression models (model 1, odds ratio (OR), 18.2 (95 % confidence interval (CI), 14.4-23.1); model 2, OR, 17.0 (95 % CI, 13.3-21.8); model 3, OR, 5.2 (95 % CI, 3.9-7.0)). Moreover, this positive relationship was found to be significant in patients of different sexes and whether they had diabetes. However, no significant differences were observed between AIP and significant fibrosis or cirrhosis as assessed by different liver fibrosis indices. Finally, ROC curve analysis demonstrated that the AIP index also demonstrated positive diagnostic utility (area under the ROC curve, 0.733 (95 % CI, 0.718-0.747); p < 0.001). Conclusion: This study revealed a positive association between AIP and MAFLD among American adults. Furthermore, this association persisted in different sexes and whether they had diabetes.(AU)


Objetivos: este estudio tuvo como objetivo explorar el potencial del índice aterogénico del plasma (AIP) como predictor de enfermedad hepática grasa asociada a disfunción metabólica (MAFLD). Métodos: se realizó un estudio transversal que incluyó datos de 4473 participantes de la encuesta nacional de exémenes de salud y nutrición (NHANES) 2017-2018. Se utilizó un parámetro de atenuación de control (CAP) ≥ 285 dB/m para confirmar la esteatosis hepática. Los grados de rigidez hepática se confirmaron de acuerdo con la medición de rigidez hepática (LSM). Se utilizaron modelos de regresión logística multiva-riponderponderados para evaluar la asociación entre AIP y el riesgo de MAFLD y fibrosis hepática. Por último, se utilizó el análisis de la curva ROC para probar la precisión de la AIP en la predicción de la MAFLD.Resultados: la asociación entre AIP y prevalencia de MAFLD fue positiva en los tres modelos de regresión logística multivariable (modelo 1, odds ratio (OR): 18,2 (intervalo de confianza (IC) del 95 %: 14,4-23,1); Modelo 2, OR: 17,0 (IC del 95 %: 13,3-21,8); Modelo 3, OR: 5,2 (IC del 95 %: 3,9-7,0)). Además, esta relación positiva se encontró significativa en pacientes de diferentes sexos ya tuvieran o no diabetes. Sin embargo, no se observaron diferencias significativas entre la AIP y la fibrosis o cirrosis significativa evaluada por diferentes índices de fibrosis hepática. Finalmente, el análisis de la curva ROC demostró que el índice AIP también demostró utilidad diagnóstica positiva (área bajo la curva ROC = 0,733 (IC del 95 %: 0,718-0,747); p < 0,001). Conclusión: este estudio reveló una asociación positiva entre AIP y MAFLD en los adultos estadounidenses. Además, esta asociación persistióen los diferentes sexos ya tuvieran o no diabetes.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: el objetivo del estudio fue valorar la eficacia de una adaptación dietética individualizada para conseguir los requerimientos nutricionales en pacientes sometidos a trasplante de precursores hematopoyéticos (TPH). Metodología: estudio piloto de intervención nutricional con pacientes sometidos a TPH. Se realizó una valoración nutricional en las primeras 24 horas de ingreso y cada 48 a 72 horas hasta el alta, o + 40 días del trasplante, realizando adaptaciones dietéticas. Resultados: se reclutaron 25 pacientes. Según el MUST, el 92,0 % (n = 23) se encontraban bien nutridos en la visita inicial, con una pérdida de 2,1 (3,8) kg y un IMC de 26,4 kg/m2 (4,2). Antes del TPH ya hubo una disminución de la ingesta del 15,4 (23,5) % y del peso corporal de 0,2 (3,2) kg; tras el TPH, la pérdida de peso fue de 3,4 (5,0) kg y la disminución de la ingesta del 6,5 (30,4) %. Los síntomas predominantes fueron mucositis (60 %), náuseas (60 %) y diarrea (44 %). Se adaptó la dieta en el 100 % de los pacientes y el 52 % recibieron soporte nutricional oral (SNO) (n = 13), mientras que la nutrición enteral (NE) y la nutrición parenteral (NP) se utilizaron solo 1 vez. Conclusión: el estado nutricional de los pacientes sometidos a TPH es normal al ingreso pero se deteriora durante la realización del trasplante y su acondicionamiento previo. La intervención dietética es clave para mantener la ingesta oral y disminuir el riesgo de desnutrición.(AU)


Introduction: the objective of the study was to assess the effi cacy of an individualized dietary adaptation to achieve nutritional requirements in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methodology: a pilot study of a nutritional intervention in patients undergoing HSCT. A nutritional assessment was performed the fi rst 24 hours of admission and every 48-72 hours until discharge, or + 40 days after the transplant, making dietary adaptations. Results: 25 patients were recruited. According to MUST, 92.0 % (n = 23) were well nourished at the initial visit, with a loss of 2.1 (3.8) kg and a BMI of 26.4 kg/m2 (4.2). Before HSCT, there was already a decrease in intake of 15.4 (23.5) % and in body weight of 0.2 (3.2) kg; after the HSCT, the weight loss was 3.4 (5.0) kg and the decrease in intake was 6.5 (30.4) %. The predominant symptoms were mucositis (60 %), nausea (60 %), and diarrhea (44 %). The diet was adapted in 100 % of the patients, 52 % received oral nutritional support (ONS) (n = 13); enteral nutrition (EN) and parenteral nutrition (PN) were used only once. Conclusion: the nutritional status of patients undergoing HSCT is normal on admission but deteriorates during transplantation and prior conditioning. Dietary intervention is key to maintaining oral intake and reducing the risk of malnutrition.(AU)

ABSTRACT

La relación entre la dieta y el sueño ha sido escasamente estudiada en la población pediátrica. El objetivo de esta revisión fue analizar de forma narrativa la relación existente entre la dieta, determinados aspectos nutricionales y la calidad del sueño en esta población. Se seleccionaron estudios que midieran la dieta y valorasen el estado nutricional y el sueño en población infantil mediante la utilización de distintas herramientas. El riesgo de sesgo de los 14 estudios seleccionados se determinó con herramientas validadas. La adhesión a algunos patrones dietéticos como el mediterráneo, el alto consumo de frutas y verduras, la ingesta de triptófano o la sustitución de los ácidos grasos saturados por grasas insaturadas se relacionaron con una mejor calidad del sueño. El consumo de los productos ultraprocesados y la ingesta alta de azúcares simples dificultan un descanso adecuado. Por otro lado, se observó una asociación entre un índice de masa corporal alto y la falta de sueño en los jóvenes menores de 14 años. En conclusión, los estudios recogidos mostraron una asociación significativa entre algunos patrones dietéticos, grupos de alimentos y nutrientes con la calidad del sueño. Los factores dietéticos “poco saludables” se asociaron a una peor calidad del sueño. Sin embargo, hábitos y dietas más saludables y recomendados se relacionaron con una mejora de la higiene del sueño. Por otro lado, la falta de horas de descanso en la población juvenil se relaciona con el aumento de peso.(AU)


The relationship between diet and sleep has been studied in adults. However, there is little evidence in the pediatric population. The objective of this review was to analyze in a narrative way the relationship between diet, some nutritional aspects and sleep quality in population under 14 years. A quick review was performed in MEDLINE (PubMed) and Cochrane with a search strategy combining MeSH terms and keywords. Studies were selected to estimate diet and evaluate nutritional status and sleep in children using different tools. The risk of bias from the 14 selected studies was determined with validated tools (AMSTAR 2, Newcastle Ottawa scale [NOS] and Risk of Bias [Rob2]). Adherence to some dietary patterns such as the Mediterranean, high consumption of fruits and vegetables, tryptophan intake or substitution of saturated fatty acids by unsaturated fats were associated with better sleep quality. The consumption of ultra-processed products, the “unhealthy fast food” or the high intake of simple sugars hinder an adequate rest. On the other hand, an association between a high body mass index and lack of sleep was observed in young people under 14. In conclusion, the collected studies showed a significant association between some dietary patterns, food groups and nutrients with sleep quality. “Unhealthy” dietary factors were associated with poorer sleep quality. However, healthier and recommended habits and diets were associated with improved sleep hygiene. On the other hand, the lack of hours of rest in the youth population increases height, weight and BMI. Further research is needed in this direction.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: El índice de masa corporal (IMC) es am-pliamente utilizado para diagnosticar estado de nutrición;pero tiene limitaciones porque no evalúa la grasa corporal. Objetivo: Determinar el valor diagnóstico del IMC en com-paración con impedancia bioeléctrica para identificar sobre-peso y obesidad (SpyOb) en adultos jóvenes mexicanos.Material y métodos: Estudio de validación en adultos jó-venes mexicanos. Se midió talla con estadímetro SECA 215,peso y composición corporal con InBody 270 por personal en-trenado. Se realizaron comparaciones por sexo con U deMann Whitney y Chi2; y correlaciones de Spearman para IMCy porcentaje de grasa corporal total (%GCT). Se calculó sen-sibilidad (s) y especificidad (e) con curvas ROC comparandoIMC y %GCT para diagnosticar SpyOb. Análisis se realizó conStata 14 y valores p<0.05 fueron considerados significativos. Resultados: Se evaluaron 351 universitarios con medianade edad de 19 años. El 42.4% fue diagnosticado con SpyObde acuerdo al IMC, y 48.1% fue identificado en esa mismacondición mediante %GCT; con diferencias significativas porsexo sólo en el diagnóstico por %GCT. La correlación entre IMC y %GCT fue alta para la muestra en general (r=0.68) ymuy alta por sexo (r=0.85 hombres y r=0.81 mujeres). ElAUC para diagnosticar obesidad en mujeres fue de 0.90, conalta sensibilidad (100%) y alta especificidad (80.4%), y paradiagnosticar sobrepeso el AUC fue de 0.52 con baja sensibili-dad (31.5%) y especificidad regular (73.1%). El AUC paradiagnosticar obesidad en hombres fue de 0.84, con alta sen-sibilidad (80%) y alta especificidad (88.9%), y para diagnos-ticar sobrepeso el AUC fue de 0.63, con baja sensibilidad(32.5%) y alta especificidad (94.3%).Conclusiones: Se encontró alta y muy alta correlaciónentre IMC y %GCT, tanto en hombres como en mujeres. ElIMC es un indicador útil y confiable para diagnosticar obesi-dad, pero no para diagnosticar sobrepeso en jóvenes adultos mexicanos.(AU)

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: The main aim was to compare the effects of 2 parenteral lipid emulsions on retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) incidence, severity, and need for treatment. Secondary aim was to compare the effect on weight gain in the first 6 weeks of life. METHODS: Single-center, observational, retrospective study analyzing preterm infants with a gestational age (GA) <31 weeks and a birth weight <1251 g born between April 2015 and December 2018. The infants' medical records were reviewed to collect clinical data. Parenteral nutrition (PN) details were obtained from the hospital pharmacy database. RESULTS: In total, 180 patients were included: 90 received ClinOleic® and 90 received SMOFlipid®. No significant differences were observed for the incidence of ROP (40% in ClinOleic® group and 41% in SMOFlipid® group, p=.88) or ROP requiring treatment (4% and 10%, respectively, p=.152). Weekly weight gain was similar in the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed no difference between the 2 groups regarding ROP, ROP requiring treatment, or weekly weight gain in the first 6 weeks of life.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Introduction: due to the catabolic characteristics of hemodialysis (HD), patients should consume foods or supplements during this treatment to meet their energy requirements and maintain a neutral nitrogen balance; however, there are some outcomes in which the effect of intradialytic oral nutrition (ION) is scarcely known. Objectives: this study aims to evaluate the effect of two types of ION (liquid and solid) on Quality of Life (QoL), appetite, and safety in HD patients. Methods: a pilot randomized, crossover clinical trial was performed in 18 patients on chronic HD. One group received ION for 18 HD sessions, after the crossover continued for 18 more sessions in the control group, and vice versa. We recorded QoL, appetite, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and intradialytic hypotension (IH) events. Results: clinical improvement was observed for most QoL components. Regardless of the consistency of supplementation, SBP increased to 4.10 mmHg. Both study groups reported a "very good-to-good" appetite. Conclusion: favorable clinical changes were observed in QoL scores during the study. Five of six IH events were reported for patients in the ION group, and SBP increased within the safe range (≤ 10 mmHg); appetite remained stable in both groups. Therefore, we concluded that this strategy, regardless of implementation consistency, is safe to be used in stable patients.


Introducción: Introducción: debido a las características catabólicas de la hemodiálisis (HD), los pacientes deben consumir alimentos o suplementos durante este tratamiento para cubrir sus requerimientos energéticos y mantener un balance nitrogenado neutro; sin embargo, existen algunos desenlaces en los que el efecto de la nutrición oral intradialítica (NOID) es poco conocido. Objetivo: este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar el efecto de dos tipos de NOID (líquido y sólido) sobre la calidad de vida, el apetito y la seguridad en pacientes en HD. Métodos: se realizó un estudio piloto en forma de ensayo clínico aleatorizado y cruzado con 18 pacientes en HD crónica. Un grupo recibió NOID durante 18 sesiones de HD, después del cruzamiento continuaron durante 18 sesiones más en el grupo de control, y viceversa. Se registraron la calidad de vida, el apetito, la presión arterial sistólica (PAS) y la hipotensión intradialítica (HI). Resultados: se observó mejoría clínica en la mayoría de los componentes de la calidad de vida. Independientemente de la consistencia de la suplementación, la PAS aumentó hasta 4,10 mmHg. Ambos grupos de estudio informaron de un apetito "muy bueno-bueno". Conclusiones: se observaron cambios clínicos favorables en las puntuaciones de calidad de vida durante el estudio. Cinco de seis eventos de HI se reportaron en pacientes del grupo de NOID y la PAS aumentó dentro del rango seguro (≤ 10 mmHg); el apetito se mantuvo estable en ambos grupos. Por lo tanto, se puede concluir que esta estrategia, independientemente de la consistencia implementada, es segura para ser utilizada en pacientes estables.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the errors in the preparation of parenteral nutrition in a Pharmacy Service, detected through an already consolidated gravimetric and product quality control, and compare them with those detected during the initial years of implementing this quality control. METHODS: All errors detected through quality control in the compounding of pediatric and adult parenteral nutrition between 2019 and 2021 were prospectively analyzed. This quality control consisted of 3 sequential processes: a visual check, a gravimetric control, and a product control. Errors were classified as gravimetric, when the nutrition had a deviation of more than 5% from the theoretical weight, or as product errors when a qualitative or quantitative error was detected upon reviewing the remainder of the components used. These errors were analyzed in terms of type and the component involved. A comparison was made with the errors detected during the implementation phase of this quality control from 2016 to 2018. RESULTS: A total of 41,809 parenteral nutritions were reviewed, and 345 errors were detected (0.83% of the preparations); of these, 59 errors were found in pediatric nutritions (0.68% of them), and 286 in adult nutritions (0.86% of them). Among these errors, 193 were of gravimetric nature, while 152 were detected through product control. The main components involved in product errors were electrolytes, primarily due to the addition of excessive volumes and the use of incorrect components. A significant absolute reduction of 0.71% (p < 0.05) in the total number of errors was observed when compared to the implementation phase. This reduction was consistent in both gravimetric errors (-0.59%) and product-related errors (-0.12%) (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Comprehensive quality control of parenteral nutrition preparation is an easily implementable tool that effectively detected and prevented significant errors. Furthermore, its widespread adoption contributed to a reduction in the overall error count.
