Intestinal Failure Unit, Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, Salford M6 8HD, UK; School of Health Sciences, University of Manchester, Manchester M13 9PL, UK.

Background & Aims: Current estimates of the prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in patients with chronic intestinal failure (CIF) exceed those seen in general population, however, the studies to-date are limited. The aim of this study was to determine the point prevalence of IDA in a large cohort of stable home parenteral nutrition (HPN) dependent adults managed by a specialist Intestinal Failure Unit.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of HPN-dependent adults managed by a national UK IF Reference Centre between 01/01/2019 and 31/12/2019.

High vs low protein intake in chronic critical illness: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Clin Nutr ESPEN

December 2024

Unidade Local de Saúde do Algarve, Faro, Portugal; Algarve Biomedical Center Research Institute, Faro, Portugal; Faculdade de Medicina e Ciências Biomédicas, Universidade do Algarve, Faro, Portugal.

Article Synopsis
  • Patients with chronic critical illness (CCI) often experience acquired muscle weakness, making optimal protein intake crucial for their recovery, but guidelines on the ideal protein levels remain unclear.
  • A systematic review was conducted by searching major databases for studies comparing high versus low protein intake in critically ill adults who had been in the ICU for more than a week.
  • The analysis included four studies with over 1,700 patients, revealing that higher protein intake (greater than 1.3g/kg/day) significantly reduced early mortality rates in these patients.

The nationwide Dietary Intake after Diagnosis and Colorectal Cancer Outcomes (PLCRC-PROTECT) cohort: Study design, clinical characteristics and baseline health behaviors.

Cancer Epidemiol

February 2025

Julius Center for Health Sciences and Primary Care, Department of Epidemiology and Health Economics, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht University, Utrecht, the Netherlands. Electronic address:

Purpose: The nationwide Dietary Intake After Diagnosis and Colorectal Cancer Outcomes (PROTECT) study is a prospective cohort study investigating how lifestyle-related factors including dietary intake and physical activity are associated with health-related quality of life (HRQoL), recurrence, and survival after a colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis.

Methods: Patients participating in the Prospective Dutch Colorectal Cancer (PLCRC) cohort with newly diagnosed stage I to IV colorectal cancer were recruited for PROTECT shortly after diagnosis, between 2015 and 2022. While patient-reported quality of life, physical activity, and sedentary behavior, as well as body composition data are available from PLCRC, patient-reported measurements in PROTECT included anthropometrics, dietary intake, dietary supplement use, and taste and smell alterations.

Laboratory of Hygiene, Social and Preventive Medicine and Medical Statistics, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki.

Purpose Of Review: The aim of this study was to conduct a review of the literature published over the past 18 months and present the latest findings on hydration in individuals with dementia.

Recent Findings: A systematic review identified sarcopenia, polypharmacy, delayed oral transit, and poor rinsing ability as markers of eating-drinking-swallowing difficulties in early-stage dementia. A cross-sectional study found a high prevalence of dehydration (57-68%) among dementia patients, associated with hypertension, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, dysphagia, and cognitive decline.
