Background And Aims: Limited data are available on the impact of clinical nutrition over the course of critical illness and post-discharge outcomes. The present study aims to characterize the use of nutrition support in patients admitted to European intensive care units (ICUs), and its impact on clinical outcomes. Here we present the procedures of data collection and evaluation.
Methods: Around 100 medical, surgical, or trauma ICUs in 11 countries (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Germany, France, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom) participate in the study. In defined months between November 2019 and April 2020, approximately 1250 patients are enrolled if staying in ICU for at least five consecutive days. Data from ICU day 1-4 are collected retrospectively, followed by a prospective observation period from day 5-90 after ICU admission. Data collection includes patient characteristics, nutrition parameters, complications, ICU and hospital length of stay, discharge status, and functional outcomes. For data analysis, the target is 1000 patients with complete data. Statistical analyses will be descriptive, with multivariate analyses adjusted for potential confounders to explore associations between nutritional balance and change in functional status, time-to-weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation, time to first clinical complication, and overall 15, 30 and 90-day survival.
Ethics And Dissemination: This non-interventional study was reviewed and approved by the ethics committee of the Medical University Vienna, Vienna, Austria (approval number 1678/2019), and the respective ethical committees from participating sites at country and/or local level, as required. Results will be shared with investigators on a country level, and a publication and results presentation at the 2021 ESPEN Congress is planned.
Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT04143503.

Objective: To explore and validate the association between the oxidative balance and prevalence of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and mortality in patients with diabetes.
Study Design: A large and representative sample from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2013 to 2016 was analyzed to study the potential association between Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) and prognosis of DKD in adult diabetic patients. Weighted multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between OBS and DKD risk.

Background: Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) constitutes a substantial burden in African hospitals. Despite adhering to international guidelines, high inpatient mortality rates persist and the underlying contributing factors remain poorly understood.
Objective: We evaluated the 10-year trend (2011-2021) in clinical factors and outcomes among children with severe wasting and/or nutritional edema at Malawi's largest nutritional rehabilitation unit (NRU).

There is a new awareness of the widespread nature of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its connection to cardiovascular disease (CVD). This has catalyzed collaboration between cardiologists, hepatologists, endocrinologists, and the wider multidisciplinary team to address the need for earlier identification of those with MASLD who are at increased risk for CVD. The overlap in the pathophysiologic processes and parallel prevalence of CVD, metabolic syndrome, and MASLD highlight the multisystem consequences of poor cardiovascular-liver-metabolic health.
