Its development involves a complex interaction of several factors, the main ones being inadequate food intake and lack of physical activity. Objective: to design and validate a tool to identify eating habits, physical activity and emotional state in adolescents. Methods: an observational study was carried out in 2 instances design and validation, using the Delphi method, taking as a basis for its design the 7 stages proposed by Sampieri. The design, based on the systematic review of the literature, was proposed by the coordinating group. Validation was carried out in 2 phases: the first by means of the criteria of judges, with the participation of 17 experts who evaluated the wording and relevance of each item, and the second by means of statistical analysis estimating the Aiken V coefficient, binomial tests, Cronbach's Alpha and McDonald's Omega. It was applied to a sample of 673 adolescents from the southern area of the state of Tamaulipas, Mexico. Results: an instrument composed of 46 items in 3 dimensions was obtained. In the validation, binomial tests were estimated, showing a significance of 0.000, which indicates that the questions are correlated. Likewise, the Aiken V coefficient was estimated for all the items, which presented a value > 0.7, establishing adequate content validity for each one of them. Finally, the reliability tests estimated by means of Cronbach's Alpha and McDonald's Omega obtained an overall value of 0.777, which indicates that the instrument is reproducible and consistent. Conclusions: the tool generated presented validity and reliability indicating that it is suitable for its application in the assessment of risk in healthy habits of adolescents (diet and physical activity) and of alteration in their emotional state.</p>","PeriodicalId":19385,"journal":{"name":"Nutricion hospitalaria","volume":" ","pages":"219-231"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142818755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: ın this pilot randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, hypercholesterolemic obese patients (BMI = 30.0-35.0 kg/m2) were randomly divided into 2 groups to receive either probiotic capsules (n = 12) or a matching placebo (n = 12) groups. The patients in the probiotic group took capsules 2 times a day that contained Enterococcus faecium, Lactobacillus plantarum, Streptococcus thermophiles, Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium longum (1.5 × 109 CFU/g) for 8 weeks. All patients adhered to a medical nutrition therapy that aimed for a weight loss of 0.5 to 1 kg per week. Anthropometric measurements and body composition were taken at baseline and were monitored every week throughout the study. Blood lipids were assessed at baseline and after the 8-week intervention. Results: after the 8-week dietary intervention, both probiotic and placebo groups showed significant decreased in total cholesterol (-36.50 ± 19.27 vs -25.91 ± 19.25, mg/dl), LDL-C (-(31.75 ± 18.11 vs -31.91 ± 31.00 mg/dl) and TG (-31.83 ± 67.37 vs -28.25 ± 59.09), respectively (p < 0.05). Body weight, BMI, body fat ratio, and waist circumference also significantly decreased after the dietary intervention in both groups (p < 0.05). Overall, no significant difference was found neither in the reductions of total cholesterol, LDL-C, TG concentrations nor the anthropometric indices between the probiotic and placebo groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions: the results of our study demonstrated that the administration of probiotic supplements for 8 weeks in obese subjects with hypercholesterolemia had favorable effects on lipid profiles, although there was no beneficial effect compared to the control group. These results indicate that anthropometric indices significantly decreased in response to adherence to the low-calorie diet recommended by dietitians in both the groups.

The cut-off values of BMI, PNI and CRP/PA on the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were obtained and applied to establish a low BMI group (n = 46) and a high BMI group (n = 54), a low PNI group (n = 48) and a high PNI group (n = 52), as well as a low CRP/PA group (n = 57) and a high CRP/PA group (n = 43). Results and conclusion: through comparing the low BMI group with the high BMI group, there were differences in the tumor diameter, invasion depth, clinical stage, and lymph node metastasis status (p < 0.05). Differences were found in the invasion depth, tumor diameter, lymph node metastasis status, clinical stage, and postoperative adjuvant therapy in the low CRP/PA group compared with the high CRP/PA group (p < 0.05). The survival rate of all patients was 45 % (45/100) during the 5 years of follow-up.
