Bibliometric analysis of nutrition in gastric cancer from 2013 to 2023.

Background: Increasing evidence suggests that nutrition plays an important role in the treatment of gastric cancer. However, no bibliometrics analysis has been conducted in this field. Our study aimed to conduct a bibliometric study to explore the latest publishing trends and areas of intense activity within the sphere of nutrition in gastric cancer. Method: Publications were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection. CiteSpace (Version 6.2.4) and VOSviewer (Version 1.6.18) were used for visual analysis. Results: In total, there were 441 publications authored by 2,941 authors from 809 organizations and 47 countries, published in 182 journals from 2013 to 2023. The most prolific country was China, and the most productive institution was the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. The leading core journal was Nutrients. P Daisuke Kobayashi and Yasuhiro Kodera were the most influential authors. The first highly cited document was published in Gastric Cancer by Kamarajah et al. The hotspots in this field were nutrition treatment and nutritional status. Moreover, research on nutritional status and nutrition-related prognosis in gastric cancer might be a potential trend. Conclusion: Nutrition in gastric cancer is a burgeoning research field garnering increasing attention. Further investigation is necessary to better understand the impact of nutritional status on the prognosis of gastric cancer.

A nutrition-focused review of the interventions in US-living Latino communities with type II diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic, debilitating disease that disproportionally affects the Hispanic/Latino community residing in the United States. Optimal nutrition therapy is fundamental to the proper management of T2D and must be culturally adapted to facilitate permanent behavior change in this population. This review selected and assessed the nutrition components of interventions aimed to improve T2D outcomes in US-based Latinos/Hispanics, published from 2002 to 2023. An overview of the participant characteristics, nutrition intervention, and dietary assessment and outcomes is included. Nutrition interventions in this community benefit from the inclusion of bicultural registered dietitian nutritionist (RDNs) to assure the counseling team promotes culturally tailored nutrition recommendations based on current dietary guidelines. Nutrition assessment and outcomes should be captured with the use of validated dietary assessment tools and dietary quality indices appropriate to their target population. Standardizing these practices will facilitate intervention comparability and replicability and ultimately better target the needs of this community.

Parenteral nutrition customization in pediatrics: A descriptive cohort study.

OBJECTIVES: The main objective of this study was to analyze the reasons for customizing parenteral nutrition (PN) in pediatric patients admitted to a quaternary hospital. METHODS: We performed a descriptive cohort study on 264 hospitalized children receiving PN. Anthropometric, biochemical, and hospitalization data were collected from patient records. Unequivocal reasons for customizing PN were defined as situations precluding prescription of a standard adult/teenager PN and included renal and/or liver failure, energy-protein adequacy, and elevated mineral and triglyceride levels. RESULTS: A total of 264 patients, with a median age of 2.2 years (IQR: 0.3-9.0 years), comprising intensive care (n = 216; 81.8%) and malnourished (n = 91; 36.1%) patients, were evaluated. In the first 48 h, 87.9% (n = 232) of the sample required customized PN for energy-protein adequacy (210 of 232), maintained over subsequent days in most cases. Among patients requiring second individualization, mineral disturbance was the main reason observed, especially within the first 4 days of PN use (n = 21; 60%). Unequivocal reasons for customizing PN occurred in 97.4% (n = 226) of cases in the first 48 h; 96.2% (n = 177) of cases on the fourth day; and 90.1% (n = 92) of cases on the seventh day of PN use. An inverse correlation was found between weight/age z score and number of second individualizations (r = -0.222; P = 0.002). CONCLUSION: Customized PN proved essential, especially for younger, malnourished, and intensive care patients. Investment in training a Nutritional Multidisciplinary Therapy Team and acquiring a specific electronic system for prescribing PN is suggested.

Positive impact of nutrition in the prevention of peripheral vascular disease and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2: review.

Recent research has shown that there is a link between the trend of cardiovascular disease (CVD), chronic symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), and medical nutrition therapy. Making positive changes to an individual's lifestyle can help to reduce the symptoms that follow exposure to CVD and COVID-19. Sustainable nutrition and lifestyle changes can positively impact an individual's health. Studies have considered the risk factors associated with the disease, medical history, the link between nutrition and peripheral vascular disease (PVD), symptom management, and the interrelationship between nutrition, COVID-19, and PVD. One study has demonstrated that Western Dietary intake can boost the innate immune system while suppressing humoral response, causing chronic inflammation and poor host defense against viruses. However, further investigation is needed to confirm. Patients with PVD and COVID-19 have experienced a reduction in side effects when prescribed a regimen of medical nutrition therapy, heart-healthy diets, and adequate physical activity before and after symptoms of both diseases appear. This approach has proven to be a protective factor during the combination of both illnesses. Our findings indicate that balanced diet and lifestyle are essential in supporting an optimal immune system that can reduce the risk of virus load in individuals at risk of infection and symptoms from COVID-19 and PVD.

Effectiveness of Zinc Supplementation for Sepsis Treatment: A Single-Center Retrospective Observational Study.

BACKGROUND: Zinc plays an important role in sepsis; however, the effectiveness of zinc supplementation and the appropriate dose remain unclear. This study aimed to verify the effectiveness of zinc supplementation and the appropriate dose in patients with sepsis. METHODS: This single-center retrospective observational study included 247 patients with sepsis from 1 April 2015 to 31 March 2023 who were receiving ventilatory management. The patients were divided into three groups according to the zinc supplementation dose: <15 mg, 15-50 mg, and ≥50 mg. RESULTS: The <15 mg, 15-50 mg, and ≥50 mg groups had 28 (19%), six (21%), and 16 deaths (22%) at discharge, with no statistically significant difference (p = 0.36). No statistically significant differences were observed in the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay (p = 0.06). A higher supplementation dose corresponded with a statistically significant increase in blood zinc concentration in the first week (38.5 ± 16.6 µg/dL, 58.8 ± 19.7 µg/dL, 74.2 ± 22.5 µg/dL, respectively; p < 0.01) but not in the second or third weeks (p = 0.08, 0.19, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Zinc supplementation did not reduce the mortality rate or length of ICU stay or contribute to an increased serum zinc concentration. High-dose zinc supplementation may not be effective during acute sepsis.

Perspectives and Insights Into Phenylketonuria: Patient Narratives About the Early Years Following Newborn Screening.

Newborn screening for Phenylketonuria (PKU) began in 1963, and since then knowledge and treatment recommendations have evolved. In the decades following newborn screening for PKU, individual and family experiences varied widely. We present narratives by people living with PKU during these years, including individuals actively following in PKU clinic and those who have been out of PKU clinic for many years. These stories describe different individual experiences, including diet discontinuation in childhood, changing treatment guidelines, and new treatments that have become available.

Improvements in Digestive Symptoms After Participation in an App-Based Chronic Digestive Disease Management Program: A Prospective Cohort Evaluation.

BACKGROUND: Fewer than 20% of adults with chronic gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms have accessed care to evaluate or manage their symptoms. We sought to characterize whether adults with chronic GI symptoms would use an app for symptom monitoring and the effects of participation in a digitally delivered GI chronic care program. METHODS: We provided a digital digestive care management app to adults via their employer-sponsored benefits. We evaluated participants' self-reported GI symptoms at baseline and between 30 and 90 days post-registration. GI symptoms (e.g., abdominal pain and constipation) were rated on a scale of 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (very severe symptoms). RESULTS: A total of 1936 participants were enrolled (75% female; 67% White, 11% Asian/Pacific Islander, 6% Hispanic, 7% Black; mean age: 43 years). Their most common GI conditions were irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and acid reflux. Participants of all genders and races reported statistically significant improvements in all symptoms between baseline and the end of the intervention (P < 0.05). At baseline, 79.5% of participants reported at least moderate GI symptom severity for at least one symptom. In contrast, at the end of the intervention, only 47.8% of participants reported moderate or severe symptoms, and 310 (16.0%) participants reported no symptoms. Participants who were scheduled with their care team reported greater symptom improvement than those who were not scheduled (P = 0.004). Participants reported feeling greater control of their health (83%), better management of their digestive symptoms (83%), increased happiness (76%), and greater productivity at work (54%). CONCLUSION: Demographically diverse participants engaged with a digital digestive chronic care program and reported significant improvements in digestive symptom severity.

Perspectives and Insights Into Phenylketonuria: Provider Narratives About the Early Years Following Newborn Screening.

The understanding of phenylketonuria (PKU), guidelines, and treatment landscape have evolved dramatically over the decades since newborn screen implementation. We capture this rich history from the stories and experiences of a multidisciplinary provider team from Boston Children's Hospital's PKU Clinic, who treated PKU from the early years of newborn screening and who worked together for over 40 years.

Adherence to the nutritional recommendations according to diabetes status in Korean adults: a cross-sectional study.

BACKGROUND: Nutritional therapy plays a crucial role in diabetes management. Assessing adherence to nutritional recommendations is critical for evaluating whether the current status of nutrition education is appropriate. This study aimed to evaluate adherence to nutritional recommendations according to diabetes status using data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2016 to 2019. METHODS: A total of 2,793 participants (55.4% male) were evaluated regarding their adherence to nutritional recommendations. The "aware" group comprised people who had been clinically diagnosed by a physician. The "treated" group comprised people receiving anti-diabetic medications. The "control" group comprised people who achieved an HbA1c level < 6.5%. The "educated" group comprised people who had received nutrition education or counseling at various locations. RESULTS: Among the 1,918 individuals in the "aware" group, only 243 (8.7%) had received nutrition education. Adherence to nutritional recommendations was generally low, with people with diabetes showing slightly higher adherence to total energy intake (59.6% vs. 55.3%) and total sugar intake (88.0% vs. 84.5%) than people without diabetes. However, adherence to total carbohydrate intake was poor in both the treated and educated groups (34.3% and 26.0%, respectively) compared to the untreated and non-educated groups (44.4% and 36.0%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: These findings indicate inadequate nutritional management for people with diabetes in Korea. Nutrition education should be effectively strengthened to achieve nutritional goals.

Dietary counseling plus omega-3 supplementation in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder: results of a randomized wait-list controlled pilot trial (the 'EASe-GAD Trial').

OBJECTIVES: Clinical evidence suggests that nutrition interventions can significantly improve symptoms of major depressive disorder; however, the effect on clinical anxiety symptoms in individuals with anxiety disorders has not been studied. The primary objective of the present study was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a nutrition intervention. The secondary objectives included assessing changes in anxiety symptom severity, diet quality, self-efficacy, mindful eating, quality of life, and biomarkers. METHODS: This study was a randomized, wait-list controlled pilot trial delivering a 12-week, biweekly dietary counseling intervention and omega-3 supplementation to 50 adult women with generalized anxiety disorder. Questionnaires and blood work were completed at baseline, after the waiting period, and after the intervention. RESULTS: 443 individuals expressed interest within eight months; 50 met the criteria for enrollment. The mean number of sessions attended was 6.4. Final questionnaires were completed by 46 participants. Eighty-four percent of participants strongly agreed with the statement 'My experience during this study was positive'. The mean anxiety symptom severity score in the intervention group was 26.2 (95% CI 22.94-29.48) at baseline and 11.0 (95% CI 8.05-13.87) at week 12. The mean diet quality score was 7.2 (95% CI 6.32-8.10) and 10.5 (95% CI 9.55-11.49) at baseline and week 12, respectively. Among the waitlist participants, the mean baseline anxiety score was 29.3 (95% CI 24.73-33.91) and 26.8 (95% CI 22.09-31.56) at week 12. DISCUSSION: This study was feasible and acceptable. Participation in the intervention was associated with a decrease in anxiety symptoms. These findings lay the foundation for large-scale studies. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05573672.

Tenets for Increasing Access to Nutrition Care Delivered Via Telehealth: Recommendations from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Telehealth Task Force.

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' Telehealth Task Force was charged with developing a telehealth policy stance to guide the work of the Academy. The task force was comprised of representatives from diverse areas of telehealth practice including research, practice, payment, and licensure. They convened in 2020-2021 to conduct an environmental scan and develop a recommended stance on telehealth policy. The tenets of the resulting telehealth stance are: 1) Nutrition care services are critical to comprehensive health care delivery systems and should be covered when provided via telehealth under the same coverage and payment policies as in-person care; 2) Patients should have coverage for telehealth delivered via audio-only if they cannot effectively access or utilize audio-visual technologies; 3) In declared emergency situations when access to qualified providers is otherwise severely impacted, the modification of certain consumer protection policies, such as licensure and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act requirements, may be appropriate; 4) Public funding and support for broadband internet, technology, digital literacy education, and language services are necessary to address racial, economic, and geographic health disparities and to address disabilities; and 5) Publicly funded research on telehealth should be nationally representative and include a wide variety of services and providers, including nutrition care services provided by registered dietitian nutritionists and nutrition and dietetic technicians, registered. The telehealth policy stance was formally adopted by the Academy in April 2021.

Nutritional gap after transfer from the intensive care unit to a general ward - A retrospective quality assurance study.

BACKGROUND: Adequate nutrition is important for recovery after critical illness. Even so, our knowledge of patients' nutritional intake after intensive care unit (ICU) discharge is scarce. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to explore nutritional planning and achieved nutritional intake in ICU patients who transfer from the ICU to general wards. METHODS: A retrospective quality assurance study. INCLUSION CRITERIA: adult ICU patients transferring to a general ward at Copenhagen University Hospital-Herlev from May to August 2021. Primary outcomes were as follows: having a nutritional plan on the day of ICU transfer. A nutritional plan was defined as follows: (i) individual assessment of energy and protein requirement; (ii) intake, documented as achieved percentage of energy and protein requirements; (iii) prescribed type of nutrition. If using enteral or parenteral nutrition; (iv) the prescribed doses; and (v) the prescribed product. Secondary outcomes were as follows: achieved percentage of energy and protein requirements from day -1 before ICU transfer until day +1 and day +3 after ICU transfer. RESULTS: We included 57 patients; the mean age was 64 years (±11.1); 43 (75%) patients were male; the median ICU stay was 6 days (interquartile range: 3-11). One (2%) patient had a full nutritional plan according to listed criteria. Patients' median percentage of requirements met declined significantly from the day before to the day after ICU discharge (energy: from 94% to 30.5%; p = 0.0051; protein: from 73% to 27.5%; p = 0.0117). The decline in percentage of requirements met remained unchanged from day 1 to 3 after ICU transfer. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, few patients had a nutritional plan when transferring from the ICU to a general ward. After ICU discharge, percentage of energy and protein requirements met declined significantly and remained insufficient during the first 3 days at the general ward.

A multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing three-times-a-day intermittent enteral postural feeding to continuous enteral feeding among mechanically ventilated patients in intensive care.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Previous randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing intermittent feeding versus continuous feeding used different methods, employed shorter fasting intervals, ignored patients' posture in bed during feeds, and showed mixed results. Prolonged fasting intervals are hypothesized to have several benefits. Additionally, there is evidence for more efficient gastric emptying in the right lateral position. In this multicenter RCT, we aimed to compare the effects of three-times-a-day gastric feeding while in the right lateral tilt position (intermittent postural feeding) versus standard continuous gastric feeding (standard feeding) on gastrointestinal intolerance and mortality among mechanically ventilated patients in ICU. METHODS: Adult ICU patients with gastric feeding tube in-situ and requiring invasive mechanical ventilation were randomized to either intermittent postural feeding group or to the standard feeding group. The feeding formula, target daily feed volume and posture turns were determined as per standard practice for all patients. Primary outcome was an incidence rate per 100 patient-days of gastrointestinal intolerance, a composite outcome of vomiting, diarrhea or constipation. Secondary outcomes were all-cause hospital mortality, gastrointestinal intolerance-free days, ventilator-free days, episodes of vomiting or diarrhea per patient, and mean diet volume ratio (diet received/diet prescribed). RESULTS: At five multidisciplinary ICUs, 120 mechanically ventilated, adult ICU patients (median age 65 years, 60% males) were randomly allocated to intermittent postural feeding (n = 61) and standard feeding (n = 59). The primary outcome did not differ between intermittent feeding arm versus standard arm (8.5, 95% confidence interval (CI): 5.9-11.8, versus 6.2, 95% CI: 4.1-9.1 per 100 patient-days; p = 0.23). Gastrointestinal intolerance-free days until day 14 were similar (6 [2-8] versus 5 [2-10]; p = 0.68) in both groups. Number of episodes per patient of vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation also did not differ in between groups. All-cause hospital mortality between intermittent feeding arm versus standard arm was 20% versus 31% (p = 0.17). There were no significant between-group differences in any of the other secondary outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Intermittent gastric feeds delivered three-times-a-day while in the right lateral tilt position among mechanically ventilated patients was as well tolerated as the continuous enteral feeding. A definitive RCT to assess other clinically important outcomes is justified.

Nutritional and Psychosocial Intervention to Improve the Self-Concept of Body Image and Increase the Self-Esteem of Overweight and Obese Individuals: A Quasi-Experimental Study.

Negative habits persist in contemporary society that can sometimes result in overweight or the deterioration of body image. This study aimed to assess the suitability of a nutritional and psychosocial intervention as part of an interdisciplinary approach to improve the perception of body image and increase the self-esteem of individuals who are overweight or obese. A total of 55 participants (25 men and 30 women) were included in this quasi-experimental intervention study. Measurements were taken as part of an ambulatory treatment to obtain values for weight, self-esteem, and body image perception using the Rosenberg scale and the Body Self-Esteem scale. At the end of the intervention and after one year, the weight reductions reached an average of 13.4 kg, positive self-image perception improved from a mean of 88.73 at pretest to 148.02 at follow-up, and self-esteem improved from a mean of 22.6 to 32.6. These were all statistically significant changes (p < 0.001). The model is effective in terms of weight reduction, together with improved levels of self-esteem and favorable perceptions of body image.

ESPEN practical guideline on clinical nutrition in hospitalized patients with acute or chronic kidney disease.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Hospitalized patients often have acute kidney disease (AKD) or chronic kidney disease (CKD), with important metabolic and nutritional consequences. Moreover, in case kidney replacement therapy (KRT) is started, the possible impact on nutritional requirements cannot be neglected. On this regard, the present guideline aims to provide evidence-based recommendations for clinical nutrition in hospitalized patients with KD. METHODS: The standard operating procedure for ESPEN guidelines was used. Clinical questions were defined in both the PICO format, and organized in subtopics when needed, and in non-PICO questions for the more general topics. The literature search was from January 1st, 1999 until January 1st, 2020. Each question led to one or more recommendation/statement and related commentaries. Existing evidence was graded, as well as recommendations and statements were developed and agreed upon in a multistage consensus process. RESULTS: The present guideline provides 32 evidence-based recommendations and 8 statements, defining how to assess nutritional status, how to define patients at risk, how to choose the route of feeding, and how to integrate nutrition with KRT. In the final online voting, a strong consensus was reached in 84% at least of recommendations and 100% of statements. CONCLUSION: The presence of KD in hospitalized patients identifies a highly heterogeneous group of subjects with widely varying nutrient needs and intakes. Considering the high nutritional risk related with this clinical condition, an individualized approach consisting of nutritional status evaluation and monitoring, frequent evaluation of nutritional requirements, and careful integration with KRT should be planned to avoid both underfeeding and overfeeding. Practical recommendations and statements were developed, aiming at defining suggestions for everyday clinical practice in the individualization of nutritional support in this patient setting. Literature areas with scarce or without evidence were also identified, thus requiring further basic or clinical research.

A Novel Machine-Learning Algorithm to Predict the Early Termination of Nutrition Support Team Follow-Up in Hospitalized Adults: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

BACKGROUND: For hospitalized adults, it is important to initiate the early reintroduction of oral food in accordance with nutrition support team guidelines. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a machine learning-based algorithm that predicts the early termination of medical nutritional therapy (the transition to oral feeding). METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included consecutive adult patients admitted to the Hacettepe hospital (from 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2022). The outcome of the study was the prediction of an early transition to adequate oral feeding before discharge. The dataset was randomly (70/30) divided into training and test datasets. We used six ML algorithms with multiple features to construct prediction models. ML model performance was measured according to the accuracy, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, and F1 score. We used the Boruta Method to determine the important features and interpret the selected features. RESULTS: A total of 2298 adult inpatients who were followed by a nutrition support team for medical nutritional therapy were included. Patients received parenteral nutrition (1471/2298, 64.01%), enteral nutrition (717/2298, 31.2%), or supplemental parenteral nutrition (110/2298, 4.79%). The median (interquartile range) Nutritional Risk Screening (NRS-2002) score was 5 (1). Six prediction algorithms were used, and the artificial neural network and elastic net models achieved the greatest area under the ROC in all outcomes (AUC = 0.770). Ranked by z-value, the 10 most important features in predicting an early transition to oral feeding in the artificial neural network and elastic net algorithms were parenteral nutrition, surgical wards, surgical outcomes, enteral nutrition, age, supplemental parenteral nutrition, digestive system diseases, gastrointestinal complications, NRS-2002, and impaired consciousness. CONCLUSIONS: We developed machine learning models for the prediction of an early transition to oral feeding before discharge. Overall, there was no discernible superiority among the models. Nevertheless, the artificial neural network and elastic net methods provided the highest AUC values. Since the machine learning model is interpretable, it can enable clinicians to better comprehend the features underlying the outcomes. Our study could support personalized treatment and nutritional follow-up strategies in clinical decision making for the prediction of an early transition to oral feeding in hospitalized adult patients.

Treatment of Esophageal Achalasia With Sarcopenic Dysphagia by Rehabilitation and Nutritional Support: A Case Report.

Esophageal achalasia is a disease characterized by esophageal motor dysfunction, leading to various symptoms, including vomiting and chest pain. There is no curative treatment for this disease, and the consensus on nutritional therapy or rehabilitation is unclear. Herein, we present the case of a 90-year-old woman with symptoms of esophageal achalasia, exacerbated by secondary sarcopenia and sarcopenic dysphagia after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia. The patient presented with chest pain and vomiting while on a soft diet, and esophagography revealed typical esophageal achalasia. Her esophageal achalasia symptoms resolved, with improvements in nutritional status, skeletal muscle mass, and physical capacity, when a combination of nutritional and comprehensive rehabilitation therapies was adopted. This case highlights that oral dysphagia is associated with worsening esophageal achalasia symptoms and that nutritional and rehabilitative interventions are effective in relieving the symptoms of achalasia in patients with esophageal achalasia and sarcopenia.

Nutritional Intervention for the Elderly during Chemotherapy: A Systematic Review.

This study aims to review existing literature on the effect of oral nutritional supplements (ONSs) during chemotherapy in older cancer patients. Electronic databases were searched for relevant studies up to March 2024. The risk of bias in the included studies was evaluated using the Cochrane tool. Eligible studies included randomized, prospective, and retrospective studies evaluating the effect of ONSs in elderly (median age > 65 years) cancer patients during chemotherapy. Data regarding chemotherapy adherence, toxicity, overall survival, and nutritional status were extracted. A total of ten studies, involving 1123 patients, were included. A meta-analysis of the results was not conducted due to the scarcity and heterogeneity of results. Some ONSs were associated with reduced incidence of chemotherapy side-effects, particularly oral mucositis, and improved nutritional status. There was limited or no evidence regarding the impact of ONSs on chemotherapy adherence or overall survival. Various types of ONS were investigated, including multimodal intervention with tailored nutritional counseling, whey protein supplements, amino acids supplements (including immune nutrition supplements), and fish oil omega-3-enriched supplements. ONSs showed promise in reducing chemotherapy side-effects and improving nutritional status in older cancer patients, but further studies are needed to explore their efficacy on chemotherapy adherence and overall survival. Future research should consider both chronological age and frailty criteria, account for dietary habits, and use specific nutritional assessment like Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis.
