Protein Supplementation Increases Adaptations to Low-Volume, Intra-Session Concurrent Training in Untrained Healthy Adults: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized Trial.

Combined endurance and resistance training, also known as "concurrent training", is a common practice in exercise routines. While concurrent training offers the benefit of targeting both cardiovascular and muscular fitness, it imposes greater physiological demands on the body compared to performing each modality in isolation. Increased protein consumption has been suggested to support adaptations to concurrent training.

Maximum Heart Rate- and Lactate Threshold-Based Low-Volume High-Intensity Interval Training Prescriptions Provide Similar Health Benefits in Metabolic Syndrome Patients.

Exercise is an integral part of metabolic syndrome (MetS) treatment. Recently, low-volume high-intensity interval training (LOW-HIIT) has emerged as a time-efficient approach to improving cardiometabolic health. Intensity prescriptions for LOW-HIIT are typically based on maximum heart rate (HR) percentages.

Long-term results of teduglutide treatment for chronic intestinal failure - Insights from a national, multi-centric patient home-care service program.

Background & Aims: Teduglutide is a Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) agonist indicated for the treatment of patients with parenteral support (PS) dependent short bowel syndrome (SBS) with chronic intestinal failure (cIF). Its application is accompanied by a structured nation-wide home-care service program in Germany. We investigated care characteristics and outcome parameters in a clinical real-world observational setting.

Prevalence and predictors of dropout from high-intensity interval training in sedentary individuals: A meta-analysis.

Recent evidence suggests that high-intensity interval training (HIIT) is an effective method to improve fitness and various health markers. However, the tolerability and acceptability of HIIT among sedentary individuals is currently controversially discussed. Therefore, our objective was to investigate the prevalence and predictors of dropout among sedentary individuals in HIIT-based exercise interventions.

A Novel Mobile Phone App (OncoFood) to Record and Optimize the Dietary Behavior of Oncologic Patients: Pilot Study.

Background: Catabolism and tumor-specific therapy lead to reduced nutrient intake and weight loss in cancer patients. Maintaining a specific individualized diet can be challenging for the patient as the nutritional counseling options are limited. Monitoring of nutrient intake and frequent feedback are, however, vital for successful nutritional therapy because they support the patient's compliance and realization of dietary therapeutic goals.

Randomized, double-blind, controlled study of glycyl-glutamine-dipeptide in the parenteral nutrition of patients with acute leukemia undergoing intensive chemotherapy.

Objective: Glutamine has stimulatory effects on lymphocytes and mucosa cells in vitro and, when given with parenteral nutrition, has been shown to improve the clinical course of patients after bone marrow transplantation and in the critically ill. This study investigated the clinical and immunologic effects of parenteral glycyl-glutamine supplementation in patients with acute leukemia receiving intensive conventional chemotherapy without bone marrow transplantation.

Methods: A randomized, double-blind, controlled study compared a standard glutamine-free parenteral nutrition with a glycyl-glutamine-supplemented parenteral nutrition (Glamin, Baxter, Erlangen, Germany) containing 20 g of glutamine in adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing myelosuppressive chemotherapy.
