Measured resting energy expenditure and predicted resting energy expenditure based on ASPEN critical care guidelines for nutrition support: An agreement study.
JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr
March 2025
Department of Dietitian Services, Abbotsford Regional Hospital, Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada.
Background: Predictive equations often inaccurately estimate energy needs in critically ill patients. This study evaluated the level of agreement between resting energy expenditure using 12 and 25 kcal/kg as recommended by the 2021 American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition critical care guidelines for nutrition support and energy expenditure measured by indirect calorimetry in patients in the intensive care unit.
Methods: An agreement study was conducted on mechanically ventilated adults who had a documented measured energy expenditure within 10 days of intensive care unit admission.
Pruritus in atopic dermatitis: a cross-sectional study of adult patients from a tertiary university hospital in São Paulo, Brazil.

Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine, Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo, SP, Brazil. Electronic address:
Background: Chronic pruritus is the defining symptom of atopic dermatitis (AD). Although AD is common in Latin America, there is little data regarding pruritus intensity, characteristics, and effects on quality of life in this population.
Objective: This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate pruritus in 91 patients with AD at a tertiary university hospital in São Paulo, Brazil.
A comparison of the effectiveness of standard anterior bracket placement versus smile arc protection method: A randomized clinical trial.

Dental Research Center, Orthodontics Department, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran. Electronic address:
Objectives: This randomized two-arm parallel trial aimed to compare the effectiveness of standard anterior bracket positioning with the smile arc protection (SAP) method in terms of occlusal and smile morphometric indices, and perceived post-treatment smile aesthetics.
Methods: Patients needing nonextraction orthodontic treatment were randomly assigned to either the SAP or standard bracket placement group. Inclusion criteria were ages 11 to 25 years, nonextraction treatment, and good oral hygiene, all treated using the Roth 0.
The association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D and parathyroid hormone in adolescents living with HIV in southern Africa: a cross sectional study.

Low vitamin D associated with high parathyroid hormone (PTH) is commonly reported in the context of HIV infection. We determined the association between total 25-hydroxyvitamin-D [25(OH)D] and PTH in adolescents living with HIV, in Zambia and Zimbabwe. Adolescents (11-19 years) perinatally-infected with HIV and established on antiretroviral therapy (ART) for ≥6 months were recruited into a cross-sectional study.

Objectives: Maxillary transverse deficiency is a common malocclusion frequently observed in orthodontic clinics. Miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) not only produces greater skeletal expansion but also offers advantages such as simple miniscrew implantation without flap elevation, enhanced patient comfort, and an expanded age range and indications for palatal expansion. However, the fixed connection between the expander and the miniscrews makes the expander difficult to remove, significantly hindering its clinical application.
