Little is known about the inflammatory potential of diet and its relation to bone health. This cross-sectional study examined association between bone-related outcomes in midwestern, post-menopausal women enrolled Heartland Osteoporosis Prevention Study (HOPS) randomized controlled trial. Dietary intake from HOPS cohort was used calculate Inflammatory Index (DII®) scores, which were energy-adjusted (E-DIITM) analyzed by quartile. The E-DII lumbar hip mineral density (BMD) trabecular scores...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is now the third leading cause of death in United States. Malnutrition hospitalized patients increases risk complications. However, effect malnutrition on outcomes infected unclear. This study aims to identify impact mortality and adverse hospital events with COVID-19.
Lung function throughout adulthood predicts morbidity and mortality even among adults without chronic respiratory disease. Diet quality may represent a modifiable risk factor for lung impairment later in life. We investigated associations between nutritionally-rich plant-centered diet across early middle from the Coronary Artery Risk Development Young Adults (CARDIA) Study. was assessed at baseline years 7 20 of follow-up using validated CARDIA history questionnaire. Plant-centered scored A...
Inflammation plays a key role in cancer development. As an important modulator of inflammation, the diet should be explored. The purpose this study was to determine association between diets with higher inflammatory potential, as measured by Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII®), and development cohort rural post-menopausal women. intake from randomized controlled trial rural, women Nebraska used compute energy-adjusted DII (E-DIITM) scores at baseline four years later (visit 9). A linear mixed...
Background: Low socioeconomic status (SES) has been associated with worse clinical outcomes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Food insecurity is more common among individuals low SES and poor other illnesses, but its impact on COPD not studied.Methods: Former smokers spirometry-confirmed were recruited from low-income areas of Baltimore, Maryland followed for 9 months as part a cohort study diet indoor air pollution.Food respiratory outcomes, including exacerbations...

(1) Background. Cognitive dysfunction is prevalent among cancer survivors. Inflammation may contribute to impaired cognition, and diet represents a novel strategy mitigate cognitive decline. The purpose was assess the impact of an educational cooking class on survivor eating habits their inflammatory potential (2) determine relationship between function. Methods. This non-randomized interventional study virtual in post-treatment, adult Energy-adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index (E-DII™)...
Abstract Interprofessional collaboration is an increasingly important skillset for practicing healthcare professionals including genetic counselors and registered dietitian nutritionists. A multi‐part interactive case study activity was created to develop interprofessional skills graduate students within counseling medical nutrition training programs at academic center. Feedback from learners who participated in this highlights its effect on their post‐graduation clinical practice....
Abstract Background Long coronavirus disease consists of health problems people experience after being infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2). These can be and include respiratory, neurological, gastrointestinal symptoms, resulting detrimental impacts on quality life. Although malnutrition has been shown to increase risk death during infection, less is known about its influence post–acute COVID‐19 outcomes. We addressed this critical gap in knowledge by evaluating...
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) affects 30 million Americans. Previous epidemiologic work has shown that diet can impact pulmonary function in those with and without COPD. Diet is also a major driver of gut microbiome composition function. Importantly, the been associated lung health (i.e., gut-lung axis) both preclinical clinical studies. Despite this growing body evidence, many questions remain regarding axis. Specifically, how impacts relationship between factors spirometry...
The role of livestock in sustainable food systems and diets is a complex issue. It should be assessed terms its impacts on environmental, economic, social sustainability, as well the levels animal performance, human supply, production system. However, such nuanced analyses are made difficult by lack multi-metric, multi-domain modelling frameworks data regional variation production. This paper proposes conceptual biophysical framework that could used pathway to address existing methodology...
Determine the extent to which diets with higher fiber intakes (g) at baseline are independently associated cancer development by final study visit in a cohort of rural post-menopausal women. This was secondary analysis participants four-year randomized controlled trial evaluating effect vitamin D and calcium supplementation (2000 IU/d D3 1500 mg/d calcium) on women Nebraska (June 2009-August 2015). Diets, including intake (total, soluble, fruit-vegetable, grain bean fiber), were evaluated...
Abstract Strong evidence indicates following a healthy diet reduces cancer risk; however, the impact of education on empowerment individuals with an increased risk has not been evaluated. Study participants included patients who had met genetic counselor without history cancer. Participants received pre‐ and post‐diet surveys including questions to measure feedback for in relation risk. Empowerment was measured using ten‐question survey adapted from Genetic Counseling Outcome Scale. The...
Abstract Purpose: This study evaluates feasibility and acceptability of a digital health coaching intervention for individuals who are within one year completing primary cancer treatment any modality, as well its effect on self-efficacy. Secondary endpoints evaluate trends in patient-reported outcomes (PRO), including financial toxicity, which the Economic StraiN Resilience Cancer (ENRICh) tool is being validated. Additional explore associations between symptoms, wearable, biomarker,...
Abstract Background Lung function throughout adulthood predicts morbidity and mortality even among adults without chronic respiratory disease. Diet quality may represent a modifiable risk factor for lung impairment later in life. We investigated associations between nutritionally-rich plant-centered diet decline across early middle from the Coronary Artery Risk Development Young Adults (CARDIA) Study. Methods was assessed at baseline years 7 20 of follow-up using validated CARDIA history...
TPS12141 Background: The landscape for cancer survivors continues to evolve as individuals live longer following primary therapy. For some, treatment is complete; others, active surveillance or maintenance therapy may be indicated. Individual survivorship needs are diverse, influenced by tumor and type, well social determinants of health. Digital interventions support in achieving personalized health goals throughout survivorship. Comprehensive Outcomes After Cancer Health (COACH) Study...
