Objective: Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) is important in the treatment and regulation of diabetic patients. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effects of medical nutrition therapy on Pentraxin-3, hsCRP and body composition analysis in Type 2 diabetes patients (DM).
Methods: This study included 160 individuals who were admitted and diagnosed with Type 2 DM. Laboratory, clinical, anthropometric and body composition parameters were obtained 3 months after baseline evaluation of the patients and the MNT was given by the dietitian.
Results: After 3 months MNT, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, body fat weight, body fat ratio and visceral fat area (p<0.001), glucose (p<0.001), insulin (p=0.033), HOMA index (p=0.004), HbA1c (p<0.001), total cholesterol (p=0.001), LDL (p=0.008), ALT (p<0.001) and hsCRP (p<0.001) levels were significantly lower than they were before MNT. There wasn't significant difference in triglyceride (p=0.509), HDL (p=0.079), Pentraxin-3 (p=0.706) levels and waist-to-hip ratio (p=0.802). The level of Framingham risk score after MNT was significantly lower (p<0.001).
Conclusion: In this study, it was cocluded that MNT, applied to patients with Type 2 DM decreased cardiovascular risk and inflammation, contributed to the maintenance of glycemic control, and a significantly improved the body composition.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a globally recognized neurodevelopmental condition characterized by repetitive and restrictive behavior, persistent deficits in social interaction and communication, mental disturbances, etc., affecting approximately 1 in 100 children worldwide. A combination of genetic and environmental factors is involved in the etiopathogenesis of the disease, but specific biomarkers have not yet been identified.

Background: Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) is an established dietary therapy for Crohn's disease but its role in ulcerative colitis remains unclear.
Aims: To investigate the efficacy of EEN in adults with active ulcerative colitis and compare variations in treatment protocols, safety, tolerability and adherence.
Methods: We conducted a systematic search of MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, Emcare, CINAHL, Web of Science and trial registries for articles published from inception until July 21, 2024.

Background: Association between dietary factors and the risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been studied extensively. However, identification of deleterious dietary patterns merits further study.
Aim: To investigate the risk of developing Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) according to the inflammatory score of the diet (ISD) in the multinational European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort.
Background: The Modified Nutritional Risk in Critically Ill (mNUTRIC) score has been proposed as a tool to identify hospitalized patients at risk for malnutrition who may benefit from early enteral nutrition (EN) therapy.
Objective: Our goal was to determine if mNUTRIC scores could predict, at time of intensive care unit admission, which mechanically ventilated trauma patients were at risk for malnutrition and might benefit from early EN, as indicated by reduced mortality.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of all adult trauma patients requiring mechanical ventilation for at least 48 hours between 01/21/2012 and 12/31/2016, reviewing inpatient medical records, demographic data, disease markers, injury severity, and comorbidities.

Background: Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is associated with the development and progression of various diseases.
Aim: To explore the association between pretreatment RDW and short-term outcomes after laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (LPD).
Methods: A total of 804 consecutive patients who underwent LPD at our hospital between March 2017 and November 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.
