They tend to have early satiety that limits intake from main meals. Some reports indicated that small frequent meals may promote higher intake. From that point of view, snacks may be useful. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effects of frequent snacks on energy intakes and nutritional status in older adults at risk of malnutrition. Methods: A randomized controlled study was conducted among older adults at risk of malnutrition in a suburban community from November 2020 to March 2021 in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Two villages were randomly assigned to either a control group (n=17) or an intervention group (n=17), and they were matched pairs by age and gender. An intervention snack consisted of 2 desserts and a box of milk (total 548 kcal) was used. For the first 3 weeks, an intervention snack was provided every day although it was too heavy for some participants. Therefore, after that, the intervention snack was provided every other day for 4 weeks. A nutrition survey by the 24-hour recall method for 3 days, body weight, mid-arm circumference (MAC), triceps skinfold (TSF), and grip strength were assessed at weeks 3 and 7 as baseline. Results: Thirty-one participants completed the study (91%). The average age was 71.8±4.8 years, and body mass index (BMI) was 19.0±2.1 kg/m2 . In the intervention snack group, there was an increased daily energy intake by 316 kcal and 214 kcal at weeks 3 and 7, respectively, (P<0.001, effect size: 0.884), with a body weight of 0.8 kg (P<0.001, effect size: 0.314), BMI of 2% (P=0.009, effect size: 0.314), and MAC of 4% (P<0.001, effect size: 0.265) compared with baseline, but such energy intake was not observed in the control group. Conclusion: Providing frequent snacks was an effective way to improve energy intake and nutritional status in community-dwelling older adults at risk of malnutrition.","PeriodicalId":36491,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education and Community Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47917873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to investigate health engagement and its relationship with social support, self-efficacy, and the quality of life in women with breast cancer. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 129 breast cancer patients who were referred to a specialized medical clinic and met the inclusion criteria. Data were collected using the EORTC QLQ-br23 questionnaire, Communication and Attitudinal Self-efficacy Scale for Cancer (19-item), Perceived Social Support Scale, NCCN Distress Thermometer, and PHE Scale. The statistical methods used in this study were linear regression, ANOVA, CATREG (Categorical regression with optimal scaling using alternating least squares), and descriptive statistics. Results: The most commonly reported problem was tingling in hands and/or feet (43.3%). The median PHE score was 2. Additionally, 29.45% and 16.27% of the patients reported moderate and severe distress, respectively. The results of regression analysis showed that the PHE scale could predict social support, self-efficacy, quality of life and all of its dimensions (P<0.001). However, it is the strongest predictor of understanding and participating in care (P<0.001, r=0.485). Conclusion: Given that the model can predict factors effective in improving cancer and interventions based on this model have not been performed in Iran, it is recommended that health interventions based on this model should be designed and implemented.","PeriodicalId":36491,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education and Community Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46610377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
