Background And Objectives: To provide a questionnaire, with Shanghai medical interns as respondents, analyzing knowledge (K), attitude (A), and practice (P) in relation to clinical nutrition, and to explore factors that could affect KAP scores.
Methods And Study Design: The cross- sectional study used 330 interns from Shanghai medical universities responding to general material data questionnaires and KAP questionnaires on clinical nutrition.
Results: The mean KAP score was 210.
Background And Objectives: Older adults are at increased risk of micronutrient deficiency, disrupting the balance of oxidation/antioxidation system and leading to serious health burdens. This study aimed to investigate the effect of micronutrient pack on micronutrient status and oxidative/antioxidative biomarkers in institutional older adults.
Methods And Study Design: Subjects aged 65-100 years were randomly assigned to either intervention group or control group (n=49 each), providing a package of micronutrient pack or placebo daily for three months.
Objective: To investigate the relationship of muscle mass and muscle function with age.
Methods And Study Design: The study including 415 participants (aged 60-99 years). Upper (UMM) and lower (LMM) limbs muscle mass and whole body fat free mass (FFM) were measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the impact of personalized aerobic exercise and a low carbohydrate diet on reducing liver fat content in individuals with pre-diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
- It involves a 6-month randomized trial with 200 participants who are divided into four groups, each receiving different combinations of exercise and diet interventions, while also comparing with healthy and non-NAFLD pre-diabetes reference groups.
- The primary outcomes focus on changes in hepatic fat content, gut microbiota, and metabolic markers, aiming to highlight the effectiveness of lifestyle modifications in managing these health conditions.
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the impact of a lifestyle intervention programme, combined with a daily low-glycaemic index meal replacement, on body-weight and glycaemic control in subjects with impaired glucose regulation (IGR). Subjects with IGR were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n 46) and a control group (n 42). Both groups received health counselling at baseline.

Methods: An acute liver damage model of rats was established by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride (0.3 mL/100 g body weight) twice a week, then the rats were killed at 6, 24, 48, and 72 h after the first and third injection, respectively.
