Introdução: As infecções causadas por bactérias multirresistentes (BMRs) representam uma ameaça crescente à segurança do paciente em unidades de terapia intensiva (UTIs). Esses microrganismos estão associados a altos índices morbimortalidade, maior tempo internação e aumento dos custos hospitalares. O presente estudo teve como objetivo descrever o impacto das BMRs UTIs. Objetivo: Descrever intensiva. Metodologia: Foi realizada revisão integrativa da literatura nas bases LILACS, MEDLINE (via...
Studies have shown that individuals with low satiety efficiency may be more susceptible to weight gain, but little is known about the effect of loss intervention outcomes in these individuals. This study aimed evaluate impact an energy-restricted on eating behavior traits and psychobehavioral factors differing their responsiveness. A pooled cohort who were overweight or obese (n = 100; aged 39 ± 9 years) participating a 12- 15-week program targeting energy deficit 500⁻700 kcal/day included...
Whether a late distribution of food intake impacts obesity through increased energy remains uncertain and the behavioural characterization eating needs to be further investigated. The first objective this study was assess associations between body mass index (BMI) total (TEI), whether TEI mediates association BMI. second behaviour traits or psychosocial factors mediate TEI.Baseline data from 301 individuals (56% women, age = 38.7 ± 8.5 years; BMI 33.2 3.4 kg/m2), who participated in four...
To assess the associations among eating behaviour traits, food label use and diet quality to evaluate if association between traits is mediated by use.Eating were assessed using Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ), Restraint Scale Intuitive Scale, whereas was measured with Label Reading Survey. Diet (Canadian Healthy Index) an FFQ.Cross-sectional study.Adults (n 385; mean (sd): BMI = 26·0 (4·9) kg/m2, age 41·1 (15·0) years) involved in two previous experimental studies.When controlling...
Background Coaches are considered as an important source of nutrition information by their athletes. However, knowledge in this area is often insufficient for proper guidance and may lead to the dissemination misinformation regarding sports nutrition. The aim study was assess coaches' intentions well psychosocial determinants underlying provide recommendations high school athletes.Methods (n = 47) completed a Web-based questionnaire based on theory planned behaviour, three different...
Abstract Background The importance of adopting healthy eating habits at a young age to prevent obesity and chronic diseases justifies the need for effective interventions. Objective This study evaluated impact family web-based nutrition intervention on vegetable fruit (V/F) dairy product (DP) consumption, nutrient intakes, diet quality BMI or z-scores. Methods Forty-three families with children aged 8–16 years were randomized either intervention, general guidelines (control) over 8 weeks....
This study aimed to measure the influence of Chefs in Action program (3 cooking workshops) on skills, nutrition knowledge, and attitudes towards healthy eating children attending summer day camps compare it with a single workshop. Groups (8-12 years) were randomly assigned intervention group (n = 25) or 1 3 comparison groups performing workshop (group 1, n 16; 2, 36; 3, 24). Two dietitians evaluated skills during workshops. Nutrition knowledge assessed before after intervention. No...
Summary Individual variability in weight loss response to a intervention is commonly observed. Recently, the timing of food intake has been identified as one possible factor implicated obesity and loss. The objective this study was further characterize low responders by assessing pre‐diet distribution daily energy macronutrient intakes. A pooled cohort men women (n = 122; aged 39.1 ± 8.2 years; body mass index [BMI] 33.1 3.8 kg/m 2 ) who participated 12 15 week energy‐restricted (−500 −700...
We aimed to evaluate the impact of a web-based school nutrition intervention on eating behavior traits, body weight concern, size perception and dissatisfaction in adolescents. Ten classes secondary students Canada (13.6 ± 0.8 years) were randomized into an (n = 162 students) or control group 75 students). Adolescents intervention, conducted between 2011 2013, participated online challenge increase their consumption vegetables, fruits dairy products using platform over six weeks....
Although nutrition influences performance, many athletes, including football players, do not meet nutritional requirements for their sport. The objective of this study was to determine the impact a intervention combining education and cooking workshops on knowledge, intention, perceived behavioral control in preparation healthy meals, dietary intakes, diet quality male university players. Athletes ( n = 23; age: 22 ± 1 year) were randomly assigned an (2 h/week) 13) or group 10) over three...
Abstract The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effects Na intake and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) on body composition. also intended assess whether and/or CRF mediate genetic susceptibility obesity. Analyses were performed a sample 526 adult participants from Quebec Family Study for whom complete data set available nutrient energy intake, composition variables. Na, their interaction analysed by comparing sex-specific tertiles using general linear mixed models. In both males...
Over 85% of parents use social media; however, limited research has investigated the associations between parental media and food parenting practices. The objectives this study were to: 1) describe how mothers fathers focused on topics related to child feeding family meals; 2) examine meals mothers' fathers' Data obtained from 179 116 children aged 3–8 years enrolled in a family-based obesity prevention intervention.
