Nutrition therapy is the cornerstone of treating diabetes mellitus. The inclusion fish (particularly oily fish) at least two times per week recommended by current international dietary guidelines for type 2 diabetes. In contrast to a large number human studies examining effects on different cardiovascular risk factors, little research this topic available in patients with aims pilot study were investigate sardine-enriched diet metabolic control, adiponectin, inflammatory markers, erythrocyte...
The objective of our study is to determine the prevalence malnutrition in elderly patients with fragility hip fractures through different diagnostic tools and which nutritional assessment tool better predicts mortality.This a prospective over 65 years age hospitalized diagnosis fracture. A was performed using several tools: Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF), Subjective Global (SGA), GLIM criteria. For definition low muscle mass, four methods were used: hand grip strength (HGS),...
Background and objectives: The objective of this study was to establish reference values for hand grip strength, compare the results obtained with Collin Jamar type dynamometers determine their association anthropometric lean mass measurements.Material methods: This cross-sectional population-based undertaken in Pizarra (Málaga, Spain). strength dominant measured using dynamometers. Skinfolds (triceps, abdominal, biceps arm subscapular) were measured, body composition estimated. Eight...
Introduction: Poor physical performance has been shown to be a good predictor of complications in some pathologies. The objective our study was evaluate, patients with colorectal neoplasia prior surgery, and its relationship postoperative in-hospital mortality, at 1 month 6 months. Methods: We conducted prospective on preoperative neoplasia, between October 2018 July 2021. Physical evaluated using the Short Performance Battery (SPPB) test hand grip strength (HGS). For decrease performance,...

En metodología se examina vínculo tienen estrategias pedagógicas establecidas principios neurocientíficos, basado cerebro enfoques instrucción multisensorial, con fin...
Background: Anxiety and depression are common in patients with cancer. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence anxiety symptoms colorectal cancer (CRC) awaiting elective surgery whether there an association their preoperative nutritional status postoperative mortality. Methods: A prospective was conducted on 215 CRC proposed for surgery. Data about were collected using Global Leadership Initiative Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria, while data Hospital Depression Scale (HADS)....
Background: Muscle ultrasonography of the quadriceps rectus femoris (QRF) is a technique on rise in assessment muscle mass application nutritional assessment. The aim present study to assess usefulness patients with cystic fibrosis, comparing results other body composition techniques such as anthropometry, bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and handgrip strength (HGS). At same time, we intend possible association respiratory status. Methods: This...
In addition to their antibiotic effect, macrolides appear modulate the inflammatory response in cystic fibrosis (CF) and could influence oxidative stress. The objective of this study was assess oxidation biomarkers levels inflammation determine whether there is an association between these parameters intake macrolides.The subjects included cross-sectional were, on one hand, clinically stable patients with CF and, other, healthy controls. following serum plasma stress were measured:...
Background: The use of oral nutritional supplements (ONS) is common practice in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF). We aimed to describe the rate ONS assess their contribution dietary intake and determine if they are associated with respiratory status, body composition, muscle strength, bone mineral density (BMD), remodeling biomarkers, plasmatic levels vitamins. Methods: Cross-sectional study. Patients were clinically stable adults recruited CF unit. A 4-day prospective...
Loss of fat-free mass (FFM) is associated with an increase in morbidity and mortality cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Handgrip strength (HGS) measures muscle function may be clinical parameters prognostic value. Our objectives were to evaluate through HGS CF patients determine if there are any associations respiratory variables, FFM, bone mineral density (BMD).A cross-sectional study conducted clinically stable We evaluated HGS, function-forced expiratory volume 1 s (FEV1) (%), forced vital...
Changes in eating habits may be influential the ever-increasing rate of childhood obesity. Our aim was to determine whether those children who consume olive oil have a lower risk weight gain compared with other oils.The study included 18 girls and 74 boys, all aged 13-166 months. A survey completed for each subject about physical activity. sample subcutaneous adipose tissue also obtained cellular study. Data were recorded on mean size adipocytes, number preadipocytes, concentration...
Abstract The prevalence of osteopenia/osteoporosis has not been sufficiently studied in people with bronchiectasis due to cystic fibrosis (BC), nor its relationship other variables (clinical, body composition and bone turnover inflammation markers) studied. Our aim was determine the osteopenia osteoporosis related factors patients BC. We did a cross-sectional study BC clinically stable state. Spirometric parameters, annual exacerbations analysis markers (BTM) were evaluated. Densitometry...
Introduction: few studies have evaluated body composition (BC) through different techniques, and the degree of agreement between them in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF). Objectives: to describe BC using techniques assess nutritional status test their concordance CF. Methods: a cross-sectional study CF patients clinically stable situation. Nutritional assessment was performed skinfold measurement (SM) densitometry (DXA). Fat-free mass index (FFMI) also determined. The diagnosis malnutrition...
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is recommended for bronchiectasis, but there little evidence of its efficacy in these patients. The aim this study was to assess the effect PR normally nourished patients with noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis compared plus an oral nutritional supplement (PRONS).A single-center randomized controlled trial, parallel treatment design which participants were randomly assigned receive 12 wk or a high-protein enriched beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate. Outcome...
Childhood obesity has grown very fast over recent decades and now it represents a serious public health problem. The number of adipocytes is set in childhood adolescence then, an effective understanding the development adipose tissue during these periods will help prevention this pathology.The current study aimed to determine which characteristics are related high weight Z-score childhood.The included 82 children aged 5-130 months who underwent inguinal hernia surgery. Anthropometric...
The aim of our study is to determine if there an association between phase angle obtained by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and mortality in older patients with fragility hip fractures. A prospective over 65 years old hospitalized a diagnosis fracture was conducted. BIA performed 24 48 h after surgery. Mortality recorded, the optimal cut-off value for predicting determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. total 262 were included. Of studied, 10 (3.8%), 21 (8%),...
The combination of elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor modulators (ETI) has improved clinical outcomes for people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF).
