Background: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are associated with important changes in nutritional status.
Objective: The aim of the study was to compare body fat composition between two anthropometric methods: skinfolds and ultrasonography, in patients with IBD.
Methods: Single-center cross-sectional study with IBD patients in remission or active disease.
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.

Article Synopsis
- Surgical treatment for obesity, particularly through gastric bypass, significantly affects respiratory mechanics in patients.
- This study compares respiratory muscle strength between patients undergoing bariatric surgery via laparotomy and laparoscopy during their hospital stay.
- Findings indicate that laparotomy patients experience greater reductions in respiratory strength and more severe pain compared to those who had laparoscopic surgery, with no return to baseline strength in the former group by discharge.
Modulators are generally expected to establish a network configuration that is appropriate for the current circumstances. We characterize a situation where the opposite is apparently observed. A network effect of a peptide modulator is counterproductive in that it tends to impede rather than promote the creation of the configuration that is appropriate when the modulator is released.
