Impact of nutritional status, muscle mass and oral status on recovery of full oral intake among stroke patients receivin...
Published in Nutrition & dietetics: the journal of the Dietitians Association of Australia
To clarify the correlation between malnutrition, muscle mass and oral status, and swallowing function recovery in stroke patients receiving enteral nutrition. Patients with stroke and dysphagia receiving any amount of enteral nutrition in rehabilitation wards from 2012 to 2016 were eligible for inclusion in this retrospective study. On admission, b...
A longitudinal study of the effects of age, sex and race on body composition in chronic kidney disease.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by accelerated aging, but the age-related changes in body composition and its modification by sex and race are unclear. We assembled a cohort of 516 patients with CKD and 45 healthy controls and serially measured body composition using air-displacement plethysmography for up to 6 years. Mixed models wer...
Physical fitness of children and adolescents with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities.
Published in Disability and rehabilitation
Background: Low levels of physical fitness are associated with low physical and mental health. The aims of this study were to assess the health-related physical fitness of children with intellectual disability (ID), and study the association of physical activity and motor development with physical fitness.Methods: One hundred and twenty-eight child...
Multifrequency Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis Compared With Computed Tomography for Assessment of Skeletal Muscle Mass...
Published in Nutrition in clinical practice : official publication of the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition
Herein, we evaluate the accuracy and reliability of multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to assess skeletal muscle mass (SMM) in the colorectal cancer patient compared with computed tomography (CT) scan and also analyze the association between SMM of BIA and postoperative outcomes. From March to May 2017, the body composition of pa...
Genotype effects on energy and protein requirements in growing male goats.
Goat genotype may alter the net energy and protein requirements for maintenance (NEm and NPm, respectively) and weight gain (NEg and NPg).This study was designed to investigate and quantify the effect of goat type on NEm, NPm, NEg and NPg, and quantify the net requirements for energy and protein for dairy, meat and indigenous growing male goats. Fo...
Usefulness of raw bioelectrical impedance parameters in tracking fluid shifts in judo athletes.
Published in European journal of sport science
Bioelectrical impedance (BI) has been widely used but clarification about the behaviour of raw BI measurements under specific athletic conditions is required. Thus, we determined the usefulness of raw BI measures in tracking body fluids changes during the preparation period prior to competition in elite Judo athletes. At baseline (weight stability)...
High-intensity interval neuromuscular training promotes exercise behavioral regulation, adherence and weight loss in ina...
...Published in European journal of sport science
It is unclear how high-intensity, interval-type nontraditional exercise training programmes can be feasible and effective options for inactive obese individuals. This randomized controlled trial investigated the hypothesis that a 10-month high-intensity, interval-type neuromuscular training programme (DoIT) with adjunct portable modalities, perform...
The effect of maternal obesity on fetal biometry, body composition, and growth velocity.
Introduction: The aim of this secondary analysis was to investigate the relationship between maternal body mass index (BMI) and fetal biometry, body composition, and velocity measurements at 28 and 36 weeks gestation.Materials and methods: The current analysis involves 911 overweight or obese women who were randomized to the Standard Care group of ...
Differences in Body Composition among Patientsafter Hemorrhagic and Ischemic Stroke
The aim of the study was to assess differences in the body composition of patients after hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke. There were 74 male participants in the study, of which 13 (18%) experienced hemorrhagic stroke, while 61 (82%) were after ischemic stroke. Significantly (p < / 0.05) higher values of body composition variables were noted for i...
