RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Fat, muscle, and bone are endocrine organs capable of affecting the metabolic profile and cardiovascular risk. Relating these components is important to the establishment of early intervention strategies for overweight patients. AIMS: This study aimed to evaluate the influence of body mass components on the metabolic profile and cardiovascular risk in the preoperative period of bariatric surgery. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted with patients admitted for bariatric surgery at a university hospital in the city of Recife, Brazil, between 2018 and 2019. Body composition was determined using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Cardiovascular risk was assessed using the Framingham risk score. Data were collected on anthropometric, clinical, and lifestyle characteristics. The lipid profile (total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides), blood glucose, and vitamin D were determined using the standard methods of the hospital laboratory. RESULTS: A total of 60 patients were analyzed, 86.7% of whom had comorbidities, 33.3% had moderate/high cardiovascular risk, and 71.4% had vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency. Lower lean body mass (adjusted PR 3.24; 95%CI 1.19-5.77) was independently associated with the severity of obesity. The body mass index and waist circumference were negatively correlated with lean body mass (r=-0.52; p<0.01)/r=-0.36; p<0.01). Lean body mass was negatively correlated with fat mass (r=-0.26; p<0.05), trunk fat (r=-0.29; p<0.05), fasting glucose (r=-0.26; p<0.05), and bone mineral density (r=-0.26; p<0.05). A total of 84.2% of individuals with less trunk fat tended to have low cardiovascular risk (p=0.05). However, physical inactivity (adjusted PR 2.14; 95%CI 1.19-5.54) and the risk of alcohol dependence (adjusted PR 2.41; 95%CI 1.76-4.15) were the only variables independently associated with cardiovascular risk. CONCLUSION: Obese patients in the preoperative period of bariatric surgery with less trunk fat tended to have low cardiovascular risk. However, the other components of body mass were also not associated with cardiovascular risk.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Brazilian nutrition recommendations for bariatric and metabolic surgery aim to provide knowledge, based on scientific evidence, on nutritional practices related to different surgical techniques in the surgical treatment of obesity and metabolic diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic literature search was carried out with the appropriate MeSH terms using Medline/Pubmed/LiLACS and the Cochrane database, with the established criteria being based on the inclusion of articles according to the degree of recommendation and strength of evidence of the Classification of Recommendations, Evaluation, Development, and Evaluation System (GRADE). RESULTS: The recommendations that make up this guide were gathered to assist in the individualized clinical practice of nutritionists in the nutritional management of patients with obesity, including nutritional management in the intragastric balloon; pre and postoperative nutritional treatment and supplementation in bariatric and metabolic surgeries (adolescents, adults, elderly, pregnant women, and vegetarians); hypoglycemia and reactive hyperinsulinemia; and recurrence of obesity, gut microbiota, and inflammatory bowel diseases. CONCLUSION: We believe that this guide of recommendations will play a decisive role in the clinical practice of nutritionists who work in bariatric and metabolic surgery, with its implementation in health services, thus promoting quality and safety in the treatment of patients with obesity. The concept of precision nutrition is expected to change the way we understand and treat these patients.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective To identify the association between dietary patterns and nutritional status in adolescent freshmen at a public university in Northeastern Brazil. Methods In this cross-sectional study anthropometric variables, body composition and food intake were collected and assessed using the food frequency questionnaire. Dietary patterns were evaluated through factor analysis using the principal component extraction method. Results Two dietary patterns were identified: "Western" pattern, consisting of foods with high energy density and low nutritional value, and the "traditional Brazilian" pattern, with foods from Brazilian cuisine such as rice, beans, corn, roots and tubers, fruits, greens and vegetables. The multiple regression analysis revealed a negative association between the "traditional Brazilian" pattern and both excess weight and body fat in females. Conclusion A healthy dietary pattern with typical local cuisine foods can offer protection to health and should be encouraged.

RESUMO Objetivo Identificar a associação entre padrões alimentares e estado nutricional em adolescentes recém-ingressos em uma universidade pública do Nordeste brasileiro. Métodos Neste estudo transversal foram coletados dados antropométricos, composição corporal e consumo alimentar, verificado pelo questionário de frequência alimentar. Os padrões alimentares foram derivados através da análise fatorial pelo método de extração de componentes principais. Resultados Dois padrões alimentares foram identificados: o padrão "Ocidental", composto por alimentos de elevada densidade energética e de baixo valor nutricional, e o padrão "tradicional brasileiro", contendo alimentos da culinária brasileira como arroz, feijão, milho, raízes e tubérculos, frutas, verduras e legumes. A análise de regressão múltipla mostrou associação negativa entre o excesso de peso e de gordura corporal e o padrão alimentar "tradicional brasileiro" no sexo feminino. Conclusão Um padrão alimentar saudável e com alimentos típicos da culinária local pode conferir proteção à saúde, devendo ser incentivado.

RESUMO RACIONAL: O tecido adiposo, músculos e ossos representam órgãos endócrinos, capazes de interferir no perfil metabólico e risco cardiovascular. Relacionar esses componentes será importante para estratégias de intervenção precoce, em obesos. OBJETIVOS: Avaliar a influência dos compartimentos da massa corporal, sobre o perfil metabólico e risco cardiovascular, no pré-operatório de cirurgia bariátrica. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal, com pacientes admitidos para cirurgia bariátrica, em hospital universitário. A composição corporal foi avaliada pela absortometria radiológica de dupla energia e o risco cardiovascular pelo escore de risco de Framingham. Foram analisadas variáveis antropométricas, clínicas e de estilo de vida. Foi avaliado perfil lipídico (colesterol total, HDL-c, LDL-c, triglicerídeos), glicemia e vitamina D, utilizando a metodologia padrão. RESULTADOS: Foram analisados 60 pacientes, 86,7% apresentavam comorbidades, 33,3% risco cardiovascular moderado/elevado e 71,4% insuficiência/deficiência de vitamina D. Menor massa corporal magra associou-se à gravidade da obesidade. O índice de massa corpórea e a circunferência da cintura correlacionaram-se negativamente com a massa corporal magra (r=-0,52; p<0,01)/r=-0,36; p<0,01). A massa corporal magra correlacionou-se negativamente com a massa gorda (r=-0,26; p<0,05), gordura troncular (r=-0,29; p<0,05), glicemia de jejum (r=-0,26; p<0,05) e densidade mineral óssea (r=-0,26; p<0,05). Ao todo, 84,2% dos indivíduos com menos gordura troncular apresentaram tendência a baixo risco cardiovascular (p=0,05). Contudo, inatividade física (razão de prevalência ajustada 2,14; IC95% 1,19-5,54) e risco de dependência alcoólica foram as únicas variáveis independentemente associadas ao risco cardiovascular. CONCLUSÕES: Os pacientes obesos em pré-operatório de cirurgia bariátrica com menos gordura troncular, apresentaram tendência a baixo risco cadiovascular. Contudo, o risco cardiovascular também não foi associado aos demais componentes da massa corporal.

RESUMO

Introduction: Bariatric surgery is considered the most effective obesity treatment. Obese patients have a high prevalence of eating disorders. Objectives: Evaluate the occurrence of eating disorders and eating patterns in candidates for bariatric surgery and associate eating disorders with sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted using electronic charts of candidates for bariatric surgery. Data were collected on sex, age, marital status, schooling, occupation, non-communicable diseases, body mass index (BMI), eating disorders, and eating patterns. Results: Among the 281 patients evaluated, eating disorders were detected in 26.7%; 10.3% had binge eating disorder, 6.6% had bulimia nervosa, and 5.3% had the night-eating syndrome. The specific eating patterns were overeating (46.6%), binge eating during periods of stress (9.3%), eating sweets (4%), and snaking (1.3%). BMI ranged from 35.38 to 59.03 kg/m² (mean: 44.37 ± 5.89). All individuals (100%) had systemic arterial hypertension, and 23.3% had type 2 diabetes mellitus or dyslipidemia. Conclusions: The frequency of eating disorders was low in the sample studied, the most common of which was binge eating disorder. Non-communicable diseases were associated with eating disorders. Among the eating patterns observed, the most frequent was overeating (AU)

RESUMO

O câncer é considerado importante causa de morbimortalidade, estando relacionado ao comprometimento da condição nutricional, que por sua vez, repercute diretamente no manejo clínico e na qualidade de vida. Neste contexto, buscou-se identificar o estado nutricional de mulheres com câncer ginecológico e investigar a associação do estado nutricional por triagem nutricional específica com o estado nutricional pelo índice de massa corporal (IMC), faixa etária e características clínicas através de um estudo transversal, realizado nas enfermarias de ginecologia e oncologia de um hospital universitário, durante julho a dezembro de 2017. Foram avaliadas pacientes com idade ≥ 20 anos, diagnosticadas com câncer ginecológico. O estado nutricional foi identificado utilizando-se a avaliação subjetiva global produzida pelo próprio paciente (ASG-PPP) que classifica em bem nutrido, desnutrição moderada ou desnutrição grave. A altura e peso atual foram obtidos através de balança mecânica e o peso usual foi referido pelas pacientes, sendo utilizados na determinação do IMC e no percentual de peso perdido. Foram estudadas 60 mulheres, com idade média de 54,5 ± 14,17 anos, com diagnóstico predominante de câncer de útero (68,3%). O estadiamento IV foi o mais prevalente (65%), a frequência de desnutrição foi elevada (68,3%), principalmente entre as idosas (81,5%), a perda ponderal ocorreu em 60% do grupo e a necessidade de intervenção nutricional em 91,7% dos casos. Constatou-se nesta amostra de mulheres adultas e idosas, elevada frequência de desnutrição através da ASG-PPP, esses achados ressaltam a importância desta ferramenta na identificação do estado nutricional em pacientes com câncer ginecológico.

Cancer is considered an important cause of morbidity and mortality, and is related to the impairment of nutritional status, which in turn directly affects clinical management and quality-of-life. In this context, we sought to identify the nutritional status of women with gynecological cancer and to investigate the association of nutritional status by specific screening with nutritional status according to body mass index (BMI), age group, and clinical characteristics through a cross-sectional study, carried out in the gynecology and oncology wards of a university hospital, from July to December 2017. Patients aged ≥ 20 years old, diagnosed with gynecological cancer were evaluated. Nutritional status was identified using the patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA), which classifies well nourished, moderately malnourished, or severely malnourished individuals. Current height and weight were obtained using a mechanical scale and the usual weight was reported by the patients, which were used to determine the BMI and the percentage of weight lost. Sixty women were studied, with a mean age of 54.5 ± 14.17 years old, with a predominant diagnosis of uterine cancer (68.3%). Stage IV was the most prevalent (65%), the frequency of malnutrition was high (68.3%), especially among the elderly (81.5%), weight loss occurred in 60% of the group, and there was a need for intervention in 91.7% of cases. In this sample of adult and elderly women, a high frequency of malnutrition through the PG-SGA was identified. These findings highlight the importance of this tool in the identification of nutritional status in patients with gynecological cancer.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective The aim of the present study was to evaluate the consumption of risk and protective foods for chronic noncommunicable diseases and to investigate associations with anthropometric parameters and body composition in individuals with Parkinson's disease. Methods A case-series study was conducted with 79 adult and elderly patients of both genders in outpatient care. Food intake was evaluated using a food frequency questionnaire for the identification of foods with greater daily consumption, stratified by gender. The consumption frequency of each food was converted into scores of two food groups characteristics: risk and protection. The conceptual model took into account sociodemographic, behavioral and anthropometric variables as well as body composition. Results A total of 72.1% of the participants in the sample had excess weight based on the body mass index and 43.5% had excess body fat. The consumption of protective foods was greater among individuals with a higher body mass index and with a greater rate of body fat. Conclusion The data indicate a situation of reverse causality and reveal the complexity of the relationship among food intake, body fat and chronic noncommunicable diseases.

RESUMO Objetivo Este estudo visou avaliar o consumo de alimentos de risco e proteção para as doenças crônicas não transmissíveis e sua associação com parâmetros antropométricos e de composição corporal em pacientes com doença de Parkinson. Métodos Estudo do tipo série de casos, com 79 pacientes adultos e idosos, de ambos os sexos, atendidos ambulatorialmente. O consumo alimentar desses pacientes foi avaliado por um questionário de frequência alimentar, sendo identificados inicialmente os alimentos com maior frequência de consumo diário por sexo e, em seguida, a frequência de consumo de cada alimento foi convertida em escores, sendo constituídos dois grupos de alimentos: risco e proteção. O modelo conceitual considerou variáveis sociodemográficas, comportamentais, antropométricas e de composição corporal. Resultados Ao todo, 72,1% dos pacientes apresentaram excesso de peso segundo o índice de massa corporal e 43,5% apresentaram excesso de gordura corporal. O consumo de alimentos protetores foi maior nos pacientes com maior índice de massa corporal e maior percentual de gordura corporal. Conclusão Os dados apontam para uma condição de causalidade reversa e revelam a complexidade envolvida na relação entre consumo alimentar, gordura corporal e doenças crônicas não transmissíveis.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT The early identification of nutritional risk is essential for the earliest possible implementation of nutritional therapy. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between nutritional risk and the incidence of clinical complications. An observational study was conducted at the internal medicine infirmary of a Brazilian public hospital involving patients admitted between January 2016 and December 2017. The NRS-2002, anthropometrics and laboratory exams (initial and final) were used for the evaluation of nutritional risk. The prevalence of nutritional risk was 63.6%. Nutritional risk upon admission to hospital was associated with the occurrence of complications, a longer hospitalization time and death. In correlation analysis, considering anthropometrics and laboratory exams compared to hospitalization time and time elapsed prior to the onset of the diet, serum albumin was inversely correlated with both hospitalization time and nutritional risk. Based on the present findings, knowledge on the nutritional status of patients and adequate nutritional therapy can lead to fewer complications during hospitalization.

RESUMEN La identificación del riesgo nutricional precoz es esencial para que un procedimiento nutricional sea implementado. El objetivo fue evaluar la asociación entre el riesgo nutricional con incidencia de complicaciones clínicas. Estudio observacional, realizado en la enfermería de una clínica médica de un hospital público brasileño, con pacientes admitidos entre enero de 2016 y diciembre de 2017. Para evaluación nutricional, se utilizaron la NRS-2002, antropometría y análisis laboratoriales inicial y final. La frecuencia de riesgo nutricional fue del 63,6%. El riesgo nutricional en la admisión se mostró asociado a incidencia de complicaciones, mayor tiempo de hospitalización y muerte. La albúmina sérica mostró una correlación inversa con el tiempo de internamiento y riesgo nutricional. Se concluye que el conocer el estado nutricional de los pacientes y el acompañamiento nutricional adecuado minimizará las complicaciones durante el internamiento.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the discriminative power of Nutritional Risk Screening 2002. METHODS: A cross sectional study involving one hundred participants aged ≥60 years. The original and adapted versions of Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 and the Mini Nutritional Assessment were used. Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 adaptation consisted of a lower age cutoff (60 years or older) for addition of one extra point to the final score. RESULTS: Screening using Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 revealed higher nutritional risk among patients aged ≥70 years (p=0.009), whereas screening using the adapted version of Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 revealed similar nutritional risk in both age groups (60-69 years and ≥70 years; p=0.117). Frequency of nutritional risk was highest when the Mini Nutritional Assessment was administered (52.7%), followed by the adapted and original versions of Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (35.5% and 29.1%, respectively). CONCLUSION: The adapted version of Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 was more effective than the original version. However, further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the association between early menarche and anthropometric/body composition variables in young female university students. METHODS: Cross-sectional study involving female university students at a public university in northeastern Brazil. Anthropometric and body composition data were collected, along with a self-report of age at menarche. The conceptual model considered demographic, socioeconomic and lifestyle variables as well as the perception of weight in childhood and at menarche. RESULTS: Among the 162 students analyzed, 62.3% were less than 20 years of age. The frequency of underweight and overweight was 8.6% and 22.3%, respectively. The frequency of above-average body fat and obesity was 32.1% and 14.8%, respectively. Early menarche was reported in 35.2%. The frequency of self-reported excess weight in childhood and at menarche was 31.3% and 25.9%, respectively. A statistically significant association was found between early menarche and height < 1st tertile (< 1.62 m). A tendency toward an association was found between early menarche and both weight, circumference in the risk range and the perception of excess weight in childhood and at menarche. CONCLUSION: Current excess weight was more associated with excess weight in childhood and at menarche than the occurrence of early menarche.

OBJETIVO: Evaluar asociación entre menarquia precoz, parámetros antropométricos y de composición corporal en jóvenes universitarias. MÉTODOS: Estudio transversal en 162 jóvenes universitarias del Nordeste brasileño. Se recogieron datos antropométricos, de composición corporal y relato sobre la edad de la menarquia. Se consideraron, además, variables demográficas, socioeconómicas, estilo de vida e histórico del peso. RESULTADOS: De las 162 jóvenes el 62,3% tenía menos de 20 años de edad. Un 8,6% y 22,3% presentaron bajo peso, y exceso de peso respectivamente. La frecuencia de grasa corporal y obesidad por encima de la media fue de 32,1% y 14,8%, respectivamente. La menarquia temprana fue reportada en el 35,2% de los casos. El 31,3% y 25,9% repostaron tener exceso de peso en la infancia y en la menarquia respectivamente. Se verificó asociación estadísticamente significativa entre menarquia precoz y talla <1 tercil (<1,62cm). Además de una tendencia de asociación entre menarquia precoz, circunferencia de la cintura y exceso de peso, tanto en la infancia como en la edad de menarquia. CONCLUSIÓN: el exceso de peso actual está, mas asociado con el exceso de peso en la infancia y la edad de la menarquia que con la menarquia precoz.
