The effect of anti-TNFα induction therapy on the nutritional status and dietary intake in inflammatory bowel disease
Nutrition | BMI, TBW, ECW, ICW, FFM, SMM, SLM, BFM, BCM | Csontos AA et al.. | 2016 | Hungary | Journal of gastrointestinal and liver diseases
ABSTRACT Background & Aims: Patients suffering from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at a high risk of malnutrition and retain an altered body composition. We hypothesized that anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) alpha therapy may improve dietary intake and have a beneficial influence on body composition in these patients. Methods: Our study involved 40 IBD outpatients (33 Crohn's disease, 7 ulcerative colitis); 24 of these received adalimumab (160/80/40EOW) and 16 were treated with infliximab (5 mg/kg at week 0, 2, 6 …
Improvement of cardiometabolic markers after fish oil intervention in young Mexican adults and the role of PPARα L162V and PPAR
Nutrition | BW, FFM, BFM, PBF | A Binia et al. | 2017 | Switzerland | Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) contained in fish oil (FO) are ligands for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) that may induce changes in cardiometabolic markers. Variation in PPAR genes may influence the beneficial responses linked to FO supplementation in young adults. The study aimed to analyze the effect of FO supplementation on glucose metabolism, circulating lipids and inflammation according to PPARα L162V and PPARγ2 P12A genotypes in young Mexican adults. 191 young, non …
Panax ginseng and salvia miltiorrhiza supplementation abolishes eccentric exercise-induced vascular stiffening: a double-blind
Nutrition | PBF | Lin HF et al. | 2016 | Taiwan | BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine
Muscle damage induced by unaccustomed or eccentric exercise results in delayed onset vascular stiffening. We tested the hypothesis that a 7-day supplementation of panax ginseng and salvia miltiorrhiza prior to an acute eccentric exercise could attenuate arterial stiffening. By using a double-blind study placebo-controlled randomized design, subjects were randomly assigned to either the Chinese herb (N= 12) or the placebo group (N= 11) and performed a downhill running (eccentric exercise) trial and a control (seated rest) trial …
Comparison of Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) versus a Multi-frequency Bioelectrical Impedance (InBody 770) device for b
Nutrition | BW, FFM, BFM, PBF | J Antonio et al. | 2019 | USA | Journal of Funtional Morphology and Kinesiology
The purpose of this investigation was to compare two different methods of assessing body composition (ie, a multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (MF-BIA) and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)) over a four-week treatment period in exercise-trained men and women. Subjects were instructed to reduce their energy intake while maintaining the same exercise regimen for a period of four weeks. Pre and post assessments for body composition (ie, fat-free mass, fat mass, percent body fat) were determined via the MF-BIA …
Effect of a Designed Compact Food Bar on Maximal Oxygen Uptake (VO2Max) and Exercise Performance in Military Athletes: A Random
Nutrition | PBF, LBM | Hadi et al. | 2020 | Iran | Iranian Red Crescent Medical Journal
Background: Under difficult conditions, the military need high-energy macronutrients and micronutrients during intense physical activities in order to achieve optimal fitness levels. Objectives: This randomized controlled trial aimed to assess the effects of a designed compact food bar (CFB) on the maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 Max) and physical fitness in military athletes. Methods: This randomized controlled trial was conducted on 50 athletes aged 20-50 years, who were assigned into two experimental and control groups. The …
Two-week exclusive supplementation of modified ketogenic nutrition drink reserves lean body mass and improves blood lipid profi
Nutrition | BW, TBW, SMM, BFM, Protein, Minerals | HR Choi et al | 2018 | Korea | Nutrients
The ketogenic diet has long been recommended in patients with neurological disorders, and its protective effects on the cardiovascular system are of growing research interest. This study aimed to investigate the effects of two-week of low-calorie ketogenic nutrition drinks in obese adults. Subjects were randomized to consume drinks either a ketone-to-non-ketone ratio of 4: 1 (KD 4: 1), a drink partially complemented with protein at 1.7: 1 (KD 1.7: 1), or a balanced nutrition drink (BD). Changes in body weight, body composition, blood lipid profile …
An arginine, alanine, and phenylalanine mixture increases synthesis of ketone bodies during low-intensity exercise via stimulat
Nutrition | BW, PBF | K Ueda et al. | 2017 | Japan | The Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports
During exercise, levels of several hormones are acutely increased in the blood. We previously reported that pre-exercise ingestion of a specific combination of amino acids (arginine, alanine, and phenylalanine; A-mix) increases fat mobilization and ketone body synthesis by increasing secretion of adrenalin and glucagon in healthy active young men. Herein, we sought to determine whether this acute hormone response could be induced upon administration of A-mix combined with exercise in patients with obesity during periods …
Nutrition assessment in children with short bowel syndrome weaned off parenteral nutrition: a long-term follow-up study
Nutrition | PBF | Jiang Wu et al. | 2007 | China | Journal of Pediatric Surgery
Purpose The purpose of the study was to assess long-term growth and nutrition status of children with neonatal short bowel syndrome (SBS) after weaning off parenteral nutrition (PN). Methods Eight children with neonatal SBS weaned from PN therapy for more than 2 years were studied. Medical records were reviewed; anthropometric measurements and blood test (hemoglobin, albumin and prealbumin, immunoglobulin, electrolytes, trace elements, and fat-soluble vitamins) were assayed during follow-up. Results Anthropometric …
