Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) may result in nutritional deficiencies, mainly involving micronutrients, and occasionally protein-calorie malnutrition (PCM) because of the resulting anatomic and functional changes. Failure of conservative PCM treatment may be an indication for corrective surgery, where the technique may vary according to the surgical cause of the malnutrition. In this study, we present the results of the reconnection of the duodenum and the proximal jejunum to the alimentary tract for the treatment of severe PCM caused by malabsorption after RYGB.

Is There a Need to Reassess Protein Intake Recommendations Following Metabolic Bariatric Surgery?
Curr Obes Rep
January 2025
Department of Nutrition Sciences, School of Health Sciences, Ariel University, Ariel, Israel.
Purpose Of Review: Protein intake is recognized as a key nutritional factor crucial for optimizing Metabolic Bariatric Surgery (MBS) outcomes by preventing protein malnutrition, preserving fat-free mass, and inducing satiety. This paper discusses the current evidence regarding protein intake and its impact on clinical outcomes following MBS.
Recent Findings: There are considerable gaps in the understanding of protein requirements following MBS, as existing guidelines are based on limited and inconsistent reports.

Background: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients frequently experience protein-energy wasting (PEW), which increases their morbidity and mortality rates.
Objective: This study explores the effects of nutritional status and pulmonary function on the short- and long-term mortality of ESRD patients undergoing hemodialysis.
Materials And Methods: 67 consecutive ESRD patients on maintenance hemodialysis were included in the study.

Department of Pediatric Intensive Care, Faculty of Medicine, Mugla Sitki Kocman University, Mugla 48000, Türkiye.
Background: The inability to ensure adequate nutrition for patients, and failure to provide adequate calorie and protein intake, result in malnutrition, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. The present study assesses the two approaches to enteral nutrition-intermittent and continuous enteral feeding-in critically ill pediatric patients in Türkiye to determine the superiority of one method over the other.
Methods: Included in this multicenter prospective study were patients receiving enteral nutrition via a tube who were followed up over a 3-month period.
Interdisciplinary Oral Nutrition Support and Supplementation After Hip Fracture Surgery in Older Adult Inpatients: A Global Cross-Sectional Survey (ONS-STUDY).
Nutrients
January 2025
Faculty of Food Science and Nutrition, University of Iceland, 102 Reykjavík, Iceland.
Background: Malnutrition predicts poor outcomes following hip fracture, affecting patient recovery, healthcare performance, and costs. Evidence-based guidelines recommend multicomponent, interdisciplinary nutrition care to improve intake, reduce complications, and enhance outcomes. This study examines global variation in oral nutrition support for older (65+ years) hip fracture inpatients.
