Abstract Background Creatine supplementation has been proposed to alleviate muscle loss in various populations, but not investigated hemodialysis (HD) patients. Thus, our objective was evaluate whether creatine could attenuate the of lean body mass (LBM) and malnutrition‐inflammation score (MIS) HD Methods A randomized, placebo‐controlled, double blind, parallel‐design study included patients, both sexes, aged 18–59 years. The patients were allocated a Placebo Group (PG; n = 15; received...

Dear Editor, Hemodialysis leads to sarcopenia, a syndrome characterized by the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass with reduction physical performance.() Likewise, neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) has been used as strategy for improvement in and strength.(,) We performed prospective, short-term single-arm study that evaluated adult men (38.18±12.86 years) undergoing hemodialysis 40.73±36.98 months ( ). Of 15 patients, four women were excluded 11 met inclusion criteria This...

Hemodialysis has a detrimental effect on fat-free mass (FFM) and muscle strength over time. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the of creatine supplementation body composition Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing hemodialysis. An exploratory 1-year balanced, placebo-controlled, double-blind design was conducted hemodialysis (≥18 years). The group (CG) received 5 g monohydrate maltodextrin per day placebo (PG) 10 day. MIS were analyzed at...

Introduction: Studies evaluating caffeinated coffee (CAF) can reveal ergogenic effects; however, studies on the effects of running are scarce and controversial. Aim: To investigate CAF consumption compared to decaffeinated (DEC) time trial performances in an 800-m run overnight-fasting runners. Methods: A randomly counterbalanced, double-blind, crossover, placebo-controlled study was conducted with 12 healthy adult males experience amateur endurance running. Participants two trials different...

Sarcopenia can be characterized by European Consensus for (EWGSOP2) criteria, but it methods are not easily accessible. Likewise, the Strength, Assistance with walking, Rise from a Chair, Climb stairs and Falls (SARC-F) has been proposed. The aim of this study was i) to evaluate prevalence risk sarcopenia ii) correlate SARC-F components EWGSOP2 consensus in hemodialysis (HD) patients. This cross-sectional enrolled ninety-five (male n= 59; 62%) HD older assessed using SARC-F, which ≥4 score...

Background: Epigallocatechin 3 Gallate (EGCG) appears to act in appetite control through hormonal modulation. However, there is a lack of elucidation EGCG’s action mechanisms, especially humans. The aim this study was evaluate the effects acute EGCG supplementation on gastric emptying and its relation blood hormones, glucose perceptions healthy women. Methods: 22 adult women were included randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study. On two separate occasions, 1 week apart...

The aim was to evaluate whether the ingestion of a high protein diet containing dairy is associated with anthropometric indicators adiposity and blood glucose. Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted volunteers 20–89 years age who performed leisure physical activity. We assessed dietary intake, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), triceps skinfold thickness (TSFT), random glucose as well sociodemographic behavioral variables. Results: total 418 individuals were evaluated....

This study sought to investigate the effect of oral caffeine supplementation on sweat rate and blood pressure in ballet dancers. A double-blind with placebo control was conducted nine professional dancers (average age: 28.5 ± 8.8 years). Oral (400 mg per dancer, 6.3 mg/kg, range: 4.9 8.6 mg/kg) ingested one hour before a session that 5 hours length. After 3 days second 5-hour performed prior which given participants. Body weight, rate, were measured after each session. Student's t-tests...

An excess of body fat is one the biggest public health concerns in world, due to its relationship with emergence other problems. Evidence suggests that supplementation long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3) promotes increased lipolysis and reduction mass. Likewise, this clinical trial aimed evaluate effects krill oil on waist circumference sagittal abdominal diameter overweight women. This pilot, balanced, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was carried out 26 women between 20...

Abstract Protein quality has an important role in increasing satiety. Evidence suggests that whey protein (WP) provides satiety via gastrointestinal hormone secretion. Hydrolysed collagen supplementation can also stimulate the production of incretins and influence food intake. Thus, we sought to compare effect acute WP or hydrolysed on post-intervention appetite energy consumption. This was a randomised, double-blind, crossover pilot study with ten healthy adult women (22·4 years/old) who...

Abstract Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) elicits muscle contraction and has been shown to improvement of quality life. However, if NMES the life attenuate inflammation is not fully understood. Therefore, our aim sought assess effects short-term intradialytic on in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. A randomized clinical trial conducted parallel design enrolled adult hemodialysis three times a week during 1 month. Patients were randomly assigned two...

Background The knowledge of the influence type 1 diabetes on quality life (QL) adolescents is important due to intensive care imposed by treatment that requires changes in their routine. Therefore, identify QL contributes comprehension health state and difficulties are essential for planning measures improve adherence treatment. Objective: To evaluate related with (T1D).

Introduction: The association of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with muscle mass, strength, and functional capacity was evaluated in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods: A cross-sectional study performed evaluating 68 adults older both sexes undergoing HD. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) used to obtain the appendicular skeletal mass (ASMM). Handgrip strength (HGS) 4 m-gait speed (GS) tests were assess capacity, respectively. pollicis thickness (APMT) as indicator mass. Multiple...

The aim of the study was to translate Physical Activity Questionnaire for Renal Patients into Portuguese language and validate it Brazilian reality. Methodology, translation process, adaptation questionnaire followed standardized methodological standards. original version instrument translated by two English speaking professionals. versions were compared each other a multidisciplinary committee. This tested with 32 patients from Hemodialysis clinic in city Goiânia order identify difficulties...

An increase in fat mass is accompanied by a loss of muscle and function chronic kidney disease. However, no studies haemodialysis (HD) patients have investigated the relationship between sarcopenia. The primary aim this study to assess prevalence sarcopenia, while secondary verify association percentage SARC-F combined with calf circumference (SARC-F+CC) elderly HD patients. A cross-sectional enrolled 96 older (male, n = 66). ≥4 used define loss, whereas ≥6 or ≥11 (with added) are thresholds...
