The IWCR includes questionnaires capturing biological, behavioral, environmental and psychosocial domains of weight management. All adult individuals with an intentional weight loss history, regardless of it being successful or not, are eligible to participate. Two invitations for participation were sent out. Firstly, potential participants were invited to complete the survey digitally; then, in the second invitation, potential volunteers were invited to complete the survey on paper.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>A total of 69 persons with weight loss experiences completed this pilot survey (40 on-paper, 29 digitally). No differences were detected in the sex distribution and the level of education between groups (all p > 0.05). Fewer participants in the on-paper group reported to have experienced significant weight loss in their adult life (70.0 vs 100 %, p = 0.001). Maximum Body Mass Index (BMI) and initial weight loss (%) were similar in both groups, however the digital group reported significantly greater weight loss maintenance (86.5 vs 43.8 % of the initial weight loss, p = 0.008). More persons in the digital group reported to have achieved their current weight by linear weight loss (rapid or not) vs. through a series of weight loss cycles (p = 0.008).</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>The different modes of engagement (digital vs. paper) may target different people. Traditional means of questionnaire completion were more appealing in individuals with less successful weight loss efforts.

We conducted an overview of reviews of n-3 fatty acid monotherapy supplementation and examined whether the evidence supports the effects in healthy young and old adults and clinical populations.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>In line with the PRISMA guidelines, a widely accepted framework for conducting and reporting systematic reviews, we conducted a comprehensive search for systematic reviews (OVID, Embase, Web of Science, SPORTDiscus) reporting the effect of n-3 fatty acid supplementation in our target populations. To ensure the reliability and validity of our findings, the methodological quality of the reviews was assessed using A Measurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews (AMSTAR) 1, a validated tool for appraising the methodological quality of systematic reviews.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Thirty-three systematic reviews met our inclusion criteria: 19 non-oncologic, 11 oncologic, and 3 mixed. In non-oncologic populations, 4 out of 16 reviews showed some evidence that n-3-PUFA supplementation benefitted lean mass, with 3 reviews focusing on older populations. For strength, 1 out of 14 reviews found sufficient evidence in favor, while 3 others reported some evidence of n-3-PUFA ingestion. For physical function, 1 out of 15 reviews found sufficient evidence, and 3 reported some evidence favoring n-3-PUFA use. In oncologic participants, only 1 out of 13 reviews found sufficient evidence that n-3-PUFA improved lean mass. No reviews found sufficient evidence for strength or physical function improvements.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Our analysis indicates limited evidence supporting the effectiveness of n-3-PUFA supplementation in both younger and older healthy adults, as well as clinical populations including oncologic patients, to improve or prevent loss of lean mass. Most systematic reviews concluded that n-3-PUFA supplementation did not significantly affect strength, or studies were inconclusive, and there was no consistent impact of n-3-PUFA supplementation on functional outcome measures. These findings underscore the need for further research to better understand the role of n-3-PUFA in muscle health and to guide clinical practice. Our analysis does not support n-3-PUFA monotherapy for lean mass gain/retention enhancing strength or function in healthy young and older persons, and oncologic populations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10352,"journal":{"name":"Clinical nutrition ESPEN","volume":"67 ","pages":"Pages 155-165"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143633724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
