Background: Adoption of a healthy diet has been identified as the cornerstone in the prevention and management of chronic diseases. However, non-adherence to lifestyle changes raises an important issue since adherence level to dietary advice is a key determinant of the effectiveness of dietary treatment. Therefore, based on the results of a Cochrane systematic review on interventions for enhancing adherence to dietary advice for preventing and managing chronic diseases in adults, the aim of this study is to assess the importance and applicability of interventions enhancing adherence to dietary advice in the Canadian context.
Methods/design: In phase 1, dietitians' opinion will be assessed through a Delphi study regarding the importance and the applicability in the Canadian context of the interventions found the most effective to enhance adherence to dietary advice through a Cochrane systematic review. In phase 2, findings of the Cochrane systematic review assessing the effects of interventions for enhancing adherence to dietary advice will be reported in a practical format on an online knowledge translation tool for dietitians and other health professionals.
Discussion: In recent years, there has been an increasing recognition of the failure to translate research findings into clinical practice. Therefore, knowledge translation efforts need to prioritize effective interventions that will be the most relevant for practice and end-users by adapting them to the local context. Our study will provide decision makers in the field of dietetic practice with essential knowledge on adherence for elaborating educational activities for academic or professional settings that will respond to dietitians' priorities in terms of importance and applicability to day-to-day practice.

Background: Patients with rectal cancer may develop gastrointestinal toxicity associated with chemo-radiotherapeutic treatment that conditions their clinical, functional, and nutritional evolution. The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of nutritional supplementation with a glutamine-enriched peptide diet (PD) compared to exclusive dietary advice (DA) on gastrointestinal toxicity, interruption of oncologic treatment, and nutritional evolution in patients with rectal cancer undergoing neoadjuvant treatment.
Methods: Prospective cohort study with two groups.

This study aimed to develop and test the psychometric properties of a questionnaire assessing knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors (KAB) related to nutrigenomics and personalized nutrition (PN) in dietetic students and professionals in India. A literature review, six focus group discussions (n = 37), and nine in-depth interviews guided initial item generation. The face, item, and scale content validity indices were calculated and a cross-sectional sample (n = 297) examined the item difficulty (IDI), item discrimination (DI), and internal consistency.
