[Nutritional, bone and body composition assessment of patients with knee and hip arthroplasty].

Introduction: malnutrition, both due to deficiency and excess of nutrients, correlates to the morbidity of the surgical patient. Objectives: to analyze the nutritional status, body composition and bone health of patients undergoing elective knee and hip arthroplasty. Methods: an observational cross-sectional study was carried out evaluating patients undergoing hip and knee replacement surgery from February to September 2019.

Mediterranean Diet and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD): A Practical Approach.

Chronic kidney disease has become a serious public health issue, as well as others health problems such as hypertension, DM, and obesity. Mediterranean diet (MD) can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer and can lead to weight loss in obesity. There are studies that suggest that MD could be the diet of choice for patients with CKD for its influence on endothelial function, inflammation, lipid profile and blood pressure.

[Multidisciplinary nutritional consensus on assessment and nutritional dietary treatment in patients with chronic kidney disease and SARS-CoV-2 infection].

The presence of malnutrition in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is high, it can be made worse by SARS-CoV-2 infection.The nutritional assessment should be adapted to minimize the infection, recommending monitoring: weight loss percentage, body mass index (BMI), loss of appetite, analytical parameters and functional capacity using the dynamometer. As well as the sarcopenia assessment using the SCARF scale, and the possibility of using the GLIM criteria in those patients who have been tested positive by MUST.

The Effect of Nutritional Interventions on Long-Term Patient Survival in Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease.

Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) are at high risk of malnutrition and subsequent related mortality when starting dialysis. However, there have been few clinical studies on the effect of nutritional interventions on long-term patient survival. A 2-year longitudinal study was conducted from January 2012 to December 2016.

[Assessment of diet in patients with chronic kidney diseases without dialysis and relationship with the nutritional status].

Background: Diet is one of the pillars of the treatment for patients with chronic kidney disease without dialysis (NDD-CKD). Despite this, very few studies have evaluated the diet in Spanish population.

Objective: To evaluate the diet of a group of patients with advanced CKD, comparing it with the recommendations, and its relation with nutritional status.

Protein-energy wasting syndrome in advanced chronic kidney disease: prevalence and specific clinical characteristics.

Introduction: Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is associated with increased mortality and differs depending on the chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage and the dialysis technique. The prevalence in non-dialysis patients is understudied and ranges from 0 to 40.8%.

Improvement in Nutritional Status in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease-4 by a Nutrition Education Program With No Impact on Renal Function and Determined by Male Sex.

Objective: Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and a rapid deterioration of kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, there is little information regarding the effect of nutrition intervention. The aims of this study were to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a nutrition education program (NEP) in patients with nondialysis dependent CKD (NDD-CKD), based on the diagnostic criteria for PEW proposed by the International Society of Renal Nutrition and Metabolism.

Body composition analysis and adipocytokine concentrations in haemodialysis patients: abdominal fat gain as an additional cardiovascular risk factor.

Introduction: Abdominal fat and its increment over time in particular has become a cardiovascular risk factor in uraemic patients.

Objectives: To analyse changes in abdominal fat in haemodialysis patients over one year and study their possible correlation with the variation in adipocytokine serum levels. As a secondary objective, we tried to validate the data obtained by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) with data obtained by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).

[Evaluation of a Nutritional Intervention Program in advanced chronic kidney disease (ACKD) patients].

Introduction And Objectives: Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease (ACKD) is associated with high prevalence of malnutrition. The habitual continuous dietary restrictions used in clinical practice. increased the malnutrition risk.

Evaluation of the usefulness of a low-calorie diet with or without bread in the treatment of overweight/obesity.

Background & Aims: Despite the lack of scientific evidence, bread is one of the most restricted foods in popular hypocaloric diets. The aim of this study was to compare two nutrition strategies (with or without bread) designed to promote weight loss in overweight/obese women.

Methods: A clinical, prospective and randomised study in which 122 women >18 years, BMI ≥ 25 < 40 kg/m(2) were divided into two groups: intervention group (BREAD, n = 61) and control group (NO BREAD, n = 61).
