Background: Perioperative malnutrition is common in patients undergoing esophagectomy, and nutritional support is critical for postoperative recovery in these patients. But few studies reported which characteristics of these patients were associated with post-esophagectomy inadequate calorie intake. This study aimed to explore which patients were more likely to have inadequate calories immediately after esophagectomy and the impact on clinical outcomes.
Methods: From January 2018 to June 2019, patients undergoing esophagectomy were retrospectively divided into the "adequate calorie group" and the "inadequate calorie group" according to whether they met daily calorie requirements in a week after esophagectomy. Caloric requirements met rate and clinical outcomes were compared between patients with and without complications, and with weight > 70 kg or ≤ 70 kg.
Results: Patients in the inadequate calorie group (n = 104) had significantly higher weight (p < 0.001), lean body mass (p = 0.028), and BMI (p = 0.001) than the adequate calorie group (n = 46). Weight loss after esophagectomy was reduced (p = 0.043) in the adequate calorie group. Patients with complications had lower rate of adequate calorie intake (72.8% vs. 63.8%). The caloric requirements met rate in patients with weigh ≤ 70 kg was significantly higher than those weight > 70 kg (80.2% vs. 43.2%, p < 0.001).
Conclusion: The weights of patients having inadequate calories in a week after esophagectomy were significantly heavier than those having adequate calories. Heavier patients after esophagectomy should attract more attention to their nutrition support.

Context: The liver/foregut satiety hormone liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide 2 (LEAP2) is an inverse agonist at the acyl ghrelin receptor (GHSR), increasing after food intake and decreasing after bariatric surgery and short-term nonsurgical weight loss, but effects of long-term dietary weight loss are unknown.
Objective: The objective of this study was to examine and compare the effects of these interventions on fasting and postprandial plasma LEAP2 and investigate potential metabolic mediators of changes in plasma LEAP2.
Methods: Plasma LEAP2 was measured in a previously published 2-year trial comparing standard medical management (SMM) (including 600-kcal/day deficit) with duodenal-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL, Endobarrier) insertion (explanted after 1 year) in adults with obesity and inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Micronutrient deficiencies can hurt the health of women of reproductive age (WRA), their pregnancy outcomes, and the growth and development of their offspring in sub-Saharan African countries. The present study aimed to estimate the dietary intake of non-pregnant and non-lactating (NPNL) WRA, residing in seven districts of the Mbeya region in Tanzania using a 24-hour dietary recall. A cross sectional study was conducted among 500 NPNL WRA.

Introduction: Adolescents represent 16% of the world's population and around 21% of the Indian population. A study was done to assess the double burden of malnutrition, the proportion of inadequate intake of some important macronutrients and micronutrients, and the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on nutrient intakes among adolescents.
Methodology: Retrospective data analysis of the adolescents presented at the Adolescent Health Clinic at a teaching hospital (tertiary care level) in Andhra Pradesh, India, between September 2022 and December 2022 was done in the current study.
