A Novel Machine-Learning Algorithm to Predict the Early Termination of Nutrition Support Team Follow-Up in Hospitalized Adults: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: For hospitalized adults, it is important to initiate the early reintroduction of oral food in accordance with nutrition support team guidelines. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a machine learning-based algorithm that predicts the early termination of medical nutritional therapy (the transition to oral feeding).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included consecutive adult patients admitted to the Hacettepe hospital (from 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2022).

Nutrition for the older adult - Current concepts. Report from an ESPEN symposium.

Background & Aims: In view of the global demographic shift, a scientific symposium was organised by the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) to address nutrition-related challenges of the older population and provide an overview of the current state of knowledge.

Methods: Eighteen nutrition-related issues of the ageing global society were presented by international experts during the symposium and summarised in this report.

Results: Anorexia of ageing, dysphagia, malnutrition, frailty, sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity, and the metabolic syndrome were highlighted as major nutrition-related geriatric syndromes.

The role of malnutrition on outcomes of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) due to COVID-19.

Background: Malnutrition increases the complications and mortality in critically-ill children. We performed a retrospective analysis to define the impact of malnutrition on the outcomes of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) due to COVID-19.

Methods: Patients with MIS-C were evaluated for demographic features, anthropometric parameters, clinical findings and outcomes.

Parenteral nutrition consensus report from KEPAN.

Objectives: Medical nutrition therapy is one of the core components of patient management, although its implication is still limited in Daily practice globally. Clinicians are in need of guidance that will ease the application of medical nutrition therapy. The pre- and post-graduate curriculum for medical nutrition therapy is limited in most regions, worldwide.

Global availability of parenteral nutrition: Pre- and post-COVID-19 pandemic surveys.

Objective: Parenteral nutrition represents a therapeutic option for patients with type 3 intestinal failure. If used exclusively, parenteral nutrition has to be complete to provide all essential nutrients. The aim was to assess the availability of parenteral nutrition in all parts of the world, to better comprehend the global situation, and to prepare an action plan to increase access to parenteral nutrition.
