Certain vulnerable populations would benefit greatly from a Mediterranean diet to reduce cardiovascular disease risk, and clinical diet intervention research typically uses diet recall questionnaires. This type of dietary tracking leads to assumptions and not an actual ability to accurately track Mediterranean diet adherence in the short-term. Objective: Thus, the purpose of this study is to test the validity of a new Mediterranean diet scoring system (MDSS) which scores diets on a weekly basis based on serving numbers within food groups. Results: We evaluated the validity of this new MDSS to another well-established system. We analyzed 354 weeks of diet using both the new and old MDSSs, performing analysis on the specificity and sensitivity of the new MDSS to the established MDSS. Conclusion: We found that an a priori defined adherence value of 70% using the new MDSS was both specific and sensitive to the established MDSS, comparable to other studies. In sum, this new MDSS is effective at measuring adherence to a Mediterranean diet weekly and warrants use in future studies, especially intervention-based research.","PeriodicalId":91758,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional medicine and diet care","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43394334","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}

Clinical dieticians are challenged to provide beneficial dietary advice balanced against using incremental changes in patients’ selected diets to increase long-term adherence to dietary improvements. The My Nutrition Index (MNI) is a validated, personalized nutritional scale based on personal characteristics and dietary needs. In this study, we evaluated and adapted the MNI for use in an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patient population and validated it against the recommended diets suggested by a certified dietician. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with patients’ pre-consultation diets based on 24-hour recall of dietary intake and post dietary consultation diets as recommended by a certified dietician. Participants were Crohn’s disease patients seen in the IBD subspecialty medical home at an academic IBD center, selected to represent the range of patients for whom a nutritional index would be most impactful. The primary outcome variable was the MNI for pre and post-consultation diets. Four focused subscales are also available: Vitamin Index, Mineral Index, Electrolyte Index, Macro Nutrient Index. In addition, consideration of Energy Ratio (observed calories relative to target calories) is important for IBD patients. The MNI and its subscales were calculated for each patient’s diet pre and post-consultation with the certified dietician and presented graphically. Results: The MNI and its subscales correctly marked the improved nutrient values of the recommended diets. Conclusions: The MNI tool, while not a substitute for dietitian advice, can inform both patients and their nutrition providers with numeric feedback around the nutritional value of their diet and reinforce small, customized, incremental changes to reach their goals.","PeriodicalId":91758,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional medicine and diet care","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47127822","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}

A total of 8 participants were randomly assigned to two sequences of treatments (AB, BA) using a 2 × 2 randomized cross-over design. The treatment effect was tested with a muffin that contained 75g of digestible carbohydrates and 30g of RS as treatment condition (TRT, B), while the control effect was tested using a 75-g oral glucose solution as a control condition (CON, A). Linear mixed models were used to test the effects of sequence (AB vs. BA), treatment (TRT vs. CON), and time periods on 2-h glucose values and area under the curve (AUC) after adjustment for covariates (i.e., age, sex, and race). The 2-h postprandial glucose AUC was significantly lower in the TRT than the CON (12.5 vs. 15.6 mmol/L•h, P = 0.002). The glucose levels were also significantly lower in the TRT than did the CON at 30 minutes (6.6 vs. 8.3 mmol/L, P = 0.001), 60 minutes (6.6 vs. 8.5 mmol/L, P = 0.004), and 90 minutes (6.3 vs. 8.1 mmol/L, P = 0.003), respectively. The 2-h postprandial insulin AUC was also significantly lower in the TRT than the CON (P < 0.001). Based on the 2-h glucose incremental AUC values, the RS-supplemented muffins’ calculated glycemic index was 48 (glucose = 100). This study suggests that adding 30g of RS supplementation decreased the glycemic index of muffins in sedentary and abdominally obese adults.","PeriodicalId":91758,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional medicine and diet care","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44164015","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}

Some mechanisms of aging that will be discussed in this paper include instability of genomes, neuroendocrine secreted factors, production of reactive oxygen species, altered calcium levels, and inflammation. Aging rates are species-specific, which suggests a strong genetic influence. However, one major variable shown to affect the rate of aging in many different species is caloric intake. Intermittent fasting involves increasing the interval between meals, therefore, lowering the daily caloric intake by approximately 40%. Although cells in the body require energy from food in order to survive and function, an excessive amount of calories can compromise cell function over time and lead to detrimental health effects. Because of this, dietary restriction including intermittent fasting, can increase resistance to disease and also lifespan. Intermittent fasting has also been shown to improve memory, learning, and neurogenesis in the brain. Many recent studies have shown that dietary restriction has profound effects on the brain, and protects neurons against degeneration of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Huntington’s diseases. Dietary restriction stimulates the production of new neurons from stem cells and enhances synaptic plasticity, which allows the brain to resist the changes of aging. These influences of the caloric intake on brain function and vulnerability to disease revealed new cellular mechanisms connected to diet that affect our nervous systems and are now leading to preventative and therapeutic approaches for neurodegenerative disorders. *Corresponding author: Lindsay Talemal, Lewis Katz School of Medicine, Temple University, Philadelphia, PA, USA Check for updates","PeriodicalId":91758,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional medicine and diet care","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68754149","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}

Materials and methods: Six patients with super-refractory status epilepticus in the pediatric intensive care unit of Cengiz Gökçek Children's Hospital were evaluated retrospectively. Demographic characteristics, antiepileptics used, time of start and duration of ketogenic diet, and the efficacy of the diet and its side-effects were evaluated. Results: Four of the six patients (66.6%) were female. Patients’ mean age was 2.8 years (min: 1, max: 9 years). Four epileptic encephalopathies were determined, two Lennox-Gastaut, one WWOX encephalopathy, and one undiagnosed epileptic encephalopathy. Mean time from the start of status epilepticus to start of ketogenic diet was 13.1 days (min: 8, max: 20) and mean duration of the ketogenic diet was 4.1 months (min: 1, max: 8). One patient's seizures ceased, and the seizures of two other patients decreased by more than 50%. One patient died from complications not associated with the ketogenic diet. Conclusion: In this retrospective study of the efficacy of the ketogenic diet in the treatment of super-refractory epilepticus, decreases in seizure numbers of at least 50% were achieved in 50% of patients.

Objective: To examine the relationship between selected lifestyle behaviors independently, and in combination with other lifestyle behaviors, and dietary quality by diabetes status. Methods: This study used a representative sample of U.S. adults 20+ years of age (n = 4097) using NHANES 20072010. Six individual lifestyle behaviors were selected as main exposure variables: Self-reported alcohol consumption, sleep adequacy, on a special diet, supplement intake, smoking status, and physical activity. Total HEI-2010 and the AHEI-2010 were used as measures of dietary quality and were calculated using data from the first 24-hour dietary recall. Multivariable Linear Regression was used to examine relationships among lifestyle behaviors independently, and in combination with total HEI-2010 and AHEI-2010 scores, after adjusting for demographic and health characteristics. Results: Selected lifestyle behaviors independently, and in combination, were significantly associated with total HEI2010 and AHEI-2010 scores by diabetes status (p < 0.05). Diabetics were more likely to report being on a special diet, taking dietary supplements, and not drinking alcohol but were less likely to report getting adequate sleep and meeting physical activity guidelines. Results indicate that being on a special diet and taking dietary supplements had the highest coefficient in relation to dietary quality for diabetics [total HEI-2010 score: β = 5.08, p = 0.0011 for on a special diet, total AHEI-2010 score: β = 3.89, p = 0.0019 for supplement intake]. However, the coefficients of the combined Lifestyle Behaviors score in relation to dietary quality were fairly similar for diabetics and prediabetics (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Diabetics did better on several of the lifestyle indicators and had higher HEI-2010 and AHEI-2010 scores, suggesting that diabetic education and nutrition counseling may have influence on their behavior.","PeriodicalId":91758,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional medicine and diet care","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49661092","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}
