Background And Aims: Parenteral nutrition (PN) composition could play a role in the management of systemic inflammatory response and intestinal barrier disruption. We aimed to evaluate changes in biomarkers of inflammation, oxidative status and intestinal permeability in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who received different PN lipid formulas.
Methods: This was a prospective study, including 94 patients with T2DM who received omega (n)-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)-enriched PN, a mixture of medium and long chain triglycerides (MCT/LCT) PN, or an olive oil-based PN.
The concept of "disease related malnutrition" (DRM) is far from the concept of malnutrition classically diagnosed in public health, which is determined by socio-demographic factors. In 2008, the Spanish Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (SENPE) and the Spanish Society of Medical Documentation (SEDOM) published a consensus defining more precisely the types of malnutrition seen in hospitals and their corresponding coding. Changes in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) and the evolution of clinical information have made it necessary to revise and update this consensus in order to establish new criteria to guide the recording and coding of diagnoses of malnutrition in the field of hospital care, thus facilitating the work of both clinicians and coders and improving the visibility of DRE, by adapting from the clinical diagnoses of undernutrition based on the GLIM criteria (Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition) proposed by the scientific societies to the current codes proposed by ICD-10-ES.

Introduction: The prevalence of dysphagia in hospitalized patients is extraordinarily high and little known. The goal of care should be to assess the efficacy and safety of swallowing, to indicate personalized nutritional therapy. The development of Dysphagia Units, as a multidisciplinary team, facilitates comprehensive care for this type of patient.

These fractures can occur at any age, but the vast majority occur in people over 65 years of age and predominantly in women, due to the increased risk of menopause-associated osteoporosis. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), apart from altering glucose, lipid and protein metabolisms, also causes a deregulation of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium and dysfunction in bone metabolism.

The prevalence of sarcopenia in people with diabetes is much higher than that of the general population, especially in individuals with poor nutritional status. Both sarcopenia and malnutrition are conditions amenable to intervention to improve clinical prognosis.

Frequently, people with diabetes are hospitalized for various pathologies. These patients generally have higher risk of complications, prolonged hospitalizations and mortality.

DM2 is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with cirrhosis, including a higher rate of hospitalizations, a higher prevalence of hepatocellular carcinoma, and an increased risk of mortality. Malnutrition is another frequent complication of cirrhosis, the prevalence of which increases with the degree of liver dysfunction, worsening the prognosis.

In cancer, the concurrence of cachexia represents a poor prognostic factor, which is aggravated by poor nutritional status. Clinically, cancer cachexia manifests as a significant reduction in body weight, accompanied by changes in body composition and alterations in the balance of the biological system, and causes progressive dysfunction.

Cardiovascular diseases in general, and HF in particular, are common comorbidities in people with type 2 diabetes (DM2). The concurrence of DM2 and HF is associated with more severe clinical symptoms and signs, and poorer quality of life and prognosis.

Hospitalization represents a stressful event that, together with other factors associated with diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, leads to a deterioration in the nutritional status of the patients. An association between poor nutritional status and adverse outcomes in surgical patients has been observed.

The aim of the study is to analyse, by an anonymous survey, the opinion on three aspects among final-year residents in Endocrinology and Nutrition (E&N): self-assessment of the knowledge acquired, working prospects, care and training consequences arising from the pandemic COVID-19.
Materials And Methods: Cross-sectional observational study using a voluntary and anonymous online survey, shared among final-year national interns in the last year of the E&N programme, carried out between June-July 2021.

Introduction: COVID-19 disease has become a priority for our healthcare system. The resident physicians training in endocrinology and nutrition (E&N residents) have been integrated into the COVID-19 teams. This study has been designed with the aim of analysing the educational, occupational and health impact on E&N residents.

Background: The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) care pathways include evidence-based items designed to accelerate recovery after surgery. Interdisciplinarity is one of the key points of ERAS programs.
Objective: To prepare a consensus document among the members of the Nutrition Area of the Spanish Society of Endocrinology and Nutrition (SEEN) and the Spanish Group for Multimodal Rehabilitation (GERM), in which the goal is to homogenize the nutritional and metabolic management of patients included in an ERAS program.
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected healthcare systems severely and has had a negative impact on healthcare. However, it has also been a catalyst for digital transformation in many healthcare centers and in the pharmaceutical industry. In this article, the experience of digital transformation during the pandemic is reviewed from the perspective of healthcare professionals and the pharmaceutical industry, with a focus on digital visits, on-line education, and the model of interaction between healthcare professionals and the industry.

Therefore, the ESPEN international multicenter cross-sectional survey was analyzed to compare the characteristics of SBS-IF cohorts collected within the same timeframe in different countries.
Methods: The study included 1880 adult SBS-IF patients collected in 2015 by 65 centres from 22 countries.
Background & aims: the last large multicenter study on disease-related malnutrition (DRM) in Spain (the PREDyCES study) showed a 23.7 % prevalence of malnutrition, according to the Nutritional Risk Screening (NRS-2002) tool. The main objective of the SeDREno study was to assess the prevalence of hospital malnutrition upon admission, according to GLIM criteria, ten years later.

The health industry has experienced great innovation and will continue to do so in the coming years. The term innovation comes from "outside to inside" driven by the need for knowledge and research to truly translate into effective improvements (hence the sequence from Research and Development to Innovation: R+D+I); but it also comes from "bottom up" as a drive of the health organization (based, as few others, on knowledge as a fundamental asset) to give way to their creativity and their ability to find new solutions to old and new problems. The current health system must advance in the development of a more global and integrated philosophy of care, which allows dealing with the consequences of aging and the increase in chronic diseases and dependence, which represent an increase in the demand for care.

There are no studies that have specifically assessed the role of intravenous lipid emulsions (ILE) enriched with fish oil in people with diabetes receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN). The objective of this study was to assess the metabolic control (glycemic and lipid) and in-hospital complications that occurred in non-critically ill inpatients with TPN and type 2 diabetes with regard to the use of fish oil emulsions compared with other ILEs. We performed a post-hoc analysis of the Insulin in Parenteral Nutrition (INSUPAR) trial that included patients who started with TPN for any cause and that would predictably continue with TPN for at least five days.
