Abstract Background Preserved skeletal muscle is essential for the maintenance of healthy bone. Loss bone mineral density (BMD) and strength, considered a predictor BMD, have been demonstrated in patients with cirrhosis, but they are poorly studied chronic hepatitis C (CHC) without cirrhosis. Thus, we aimed to evaluate prevalence low BMD its association body composition, nutritional status CHC. Methods One hundred four subjects [mean age, 50.5 ± 11.3 years; 75.0% males; 67.3% non‐cirrhotic;...
The association between nutritional status and inflammation was assessed in patients with colorectal cancer to verify their complications during anticancer treatment. agreement the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) different assessment methods also evaluated.A cross-sectional, prospective, descriptive study performed. defined by SGA severity of Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS). were classified using Common Toxicity Criteria, version 3. Anthropometric measurements such as body mass index,...
A relationship between weight loss and inflammation has been described in patients with cancer. In the present study, subjective global assessment (SGA) severity of inflammation, as defined by Glasgow prognostic score (GPS), well both these measures presence complications survival time, was assessed. addition, we compared diagnosis given SGA parameters nutritional assessment, such body mass index, triceps skinfold, midarm circumference (MAC), muscle (MAMC), phase angle (PA), adductor...
The nutritional and metabolic status have been related to cancer risk factors as well treatment morbimortality. Thus, its assessment is important for developing strategies the promotion, maintenance / or recovery of outcome.Several different methods in breast patients undergoing adjuvant therapy were used, including subjective global (SGA), body mass index (BMI), triceps skinfold (TSF), mid-arm circumference (MAC), adductor pollicis muscle thickness (APMT), hand grip strength (HGS)...
Abstract Background There is neither a gold standard definition nor universal consensus to diagnose sarcopenia in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Thus, we aimed compare the prevalence of and agreement discrepancies between European Working Group on Sarcopenia Older People (EWGSOP1), EWGSOP2, Foundation for National Institutes Health Biomarkers Consortium Project (FNIH) definitions Methods Dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry was used assess muscle mass by quantifying appendicular lean (ALM)...
Because cirrhotic patients are at high risk of malnutrition and sarcopenia, we evaluated the prevalence low fat-free mass index (FFMI) phase angle (PhA) among with chronic hepatitis C (CHC).In total, 135 subjects CHC (50.4% males; mean age, 52.4 ± 11.8 years; 65.9% noncirrhotic 34.1% compensated patients) were prospectively included by bioelectrical impedance analysis. Subjective global assessment was used to evaluate malnutrition.Low FFMI PhA identified in 21.5% 23.7% patients,...
Although the prognostic relevance of sarcopenia has been increasingly recognised in context liver disease, there is a paucity data evaluating body composition patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Beyond virus-related factors, nutritional and metabolic aspects can be associated skeletal muscle abnormalities these should not disregarded.To evaluate association between components demographic, clinical, lifestyle, nutritional, biochemical variables CHB patients.Dual-energy X-ray...
Introdução: Os transtornos alimentares (TAs) são considerados doenças psiquiátricas, caracterizadas por desvios graves no comportamento alimentar e tem como principal fator de risco a insatisfação com imagem corporal. Estudos universitários da área saúde verificaram que estes grupos apresentaram evidências comportamentos para TAs devido às maiores cobranças em relação sua forma física. Objetivo: Avaliar associação entre percepção autoimagem corporal o desenvolver estudantes nutrição...
Introdução: O Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar visa promover o desenvolvimento crianças e adolescentes melhorar rendimento escolar. Nesse contexto, os manipuladores alimentos tem papel primordial na adequação das condições higiênico-sanitárias cantinas. Esse estudo objetivou avaliar as cantinas escolares da rede estadual ensino, localizadas em um município região do Alto Paranaíba, MG, antes após a capacitação dos colaboradores. Materiais Métodos: As avaliadas (n=2) pertencem à...
