[Evaluation of variety and quality in the school menus of Asturias. 2015/2016]. / Evaluación de la variedad y calidad en los menús escolares de Asturias. Curso 2015/2016.

OBJECTIVE: Since the first evaluation in 2011 of the "Healthy Eating and Ecological Production Program in School Meals of Asturias", the improvement of the menus has been analyzed in terms of frequencies in the food group offer. The objective of this study was to evaluate the culinary quality of the menus, in order to complement this analysis. METHODS: Transversal descriptive study with a sample for convenience of the 243 Primary Education centers of Asturias, that is, 195 in the 2015-16 academic year.. A monthly menu was requested to all the centers and in case of not receiving a response, a search was made on the Internet. Minimum criteria were defined to comply with frequencies, variety and recipes for each food group. The menus were analyzed every day and the differences between the menus cooked on site vs catering, as well as between public versus private / concerted centers. The data analysis was performed with the SPSS program and the differences between percentages of compliance with the Chi square test. RESULTS: 195 menus were analyzed (80.2%), obtaining high percentages of compliance in all the criteria (over 80%), except in the variety of carbohydrates (27.7%), fruit (22.1%). %), processed meat (13.9%), vegetable offer as first course (6.1%) and animal protein in the first course (2.6%). CONCLUSIONS: The general compliance of the recommendations with respect to variety and different recipes in the schools is very adequate, especially in those of public ownership and with own kitchen type.

OBJETIVO: Desde la primera evaluación en 2011 del "Programa de Alimentación Saludable y de Producción Ecológica en los Comedores Escolares de Asturias", se ha venido analizando la mejora de los menús en cuanto a frecuencias en la oferta de grupos de alimentos. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la calidad culinaria de los menús, de forma que complemente a dicho análisis. METODOS: Estudio descriptivo transversal con una muestra por conveniencia de los 243 centros de Educación Primaria de Asturias, es decir, 195 en el curso 2015-16. Se solicitó un menú mensual a todos los centros y en caso de no recibir respuesta se realizó una búsqueda en Internet. Se definieron unos criterios mínimos a cumplir en frecuencias, variedad y recetas diferentes para cada grupo de alimentos. Se analizaron todos los días de los menús y las diferencias entre los menús cocinados in situ vs catering, así como entre centros de titularidad pública vs privada/concertada. El análisis de datos se realizó con el programa SPSS y las diferencias entre porcentajes de cumplimiento con la prueba Chi cuadrado. RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 195 menús (80,2%), obteniéndose altos porcentajes de cumplimiento en todos los criterios (superiores al 80%), excepto en la variedad de carbohidratos (27,7%), fruta (22,1%), carne procesada (13,9%), oferta de verdura como primer plato (6,1%) y proteína animal en el primer plato (2,6%). CONCLUSIONES: El cumplimiento general de las recomendaciones respecto a variedad y recetas diferentes en los colegios es muy adecuado, especialmente en los de titularidad pública y de cocina propia.

Timing of Thiopurine or Anti-TNF Initiation Is Associated with the Risk of Major Abdominal Surgery in Crohn's Disease: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

INTRODUCTION: Early stages of Crohn's disease [CD] are predominantly inflammatory and early treatment could be useful to change the natural history of CD. We aimed to evaluate the impact of early treatment in our cohort of CD patients. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed clinical records of all CD patients at our centre who have received immunomodulators. Time from diagnosis to first CD-related major abdominal surgery or end of follow-up was considered. Dates of diagnosis, of starting immunomodulators (thiopurines / anti-tumour necrosis factor [TNF]), and of the first CD-related surgery when appropriate were collected. RESULTS: Of 422 patients who received thiopurines, 189 operated patients started thiopurines after a median of 117 months (interquartile range [IQR] 44-196) since diagnosis; non-operated patients, after a median of 30 months [IQR 6-128], p < 0,005. Odds ratio [OR] for surgery was 1.006 (95% confidence interval [CI]1.004-1008) for each month of delay in starting thiopurines. Among 272 patients who received anti-TNFs, 137 operated patients started anti-TNFs after a median of 166 months [IQR 90-233] since diagnosis; non-operated patients after a median of 59 months [IQR 14-162]; p < 0,005. OR for surgery was 1.008 [95% CI 1.005-1.010] for each month of delay in starting anti-TNFs. Among 467 patients who received thiopurines and/or anti-TNF, 210 operated patients started any immunomodulator after a median of 120 months [IQR 48-197] since diagnosis and non-operated patients after a median of 30 months [IQR 6-126], p < 0,005. OR for surgery was 1.008 [95% CI 1.005-1.010] for each month of delay in starting immunomodulators. CONCLUSIONS: In our experience, time between diagnosis and thiopurine or anti-TNF initiation was associated with the risk of major abdominal surgery in Crohn's disease.
