Some micronutrients are likely to interact with malaria parasite, leading to either synergistic or antagonist effect on malaria morbidity and therefore on hemoglobin response. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of supplementation with iron or multiple micronutrients on anemia while integrated with malaria management in rural Burkinabe young anemic children with high prevalence of malaria.
The prevalence of malnutrition in patients with colorectal cancer is recorded. We want to find out, if a malnourished patient has more complications after the elective surgery.
RATIONALE: Gathering information about patients with cancer and cancer-related conditions may help doctors learn more about a patient's needs and help doctors plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well a whole-person-care guide works in identifying patient needs in patients with cancer or complications from cancer treatment.
This study is to evaluate the impact of providing high protein supplementation in the form of a medical food bar containing 20grams of protein eath to hypoalbuminemic dialysis patients.
Study of efficiency and safety of oral nutritional supplements with anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties combined with an appetite stimulant with anti-inflammatory properties (pentoxiphylline) in treatment of malnutrition-inflammation-cachexia syndrome in maintenance hemodialysis patients
Much has been learned in recent years about the mechanisms by which breastfeeding improves child health and survival. However, there has been little progress in using these insights to improve pediatric care. Factors that are important for protecting the breast fed infant might be expected to decrease the adverse effects of weaning on diarrhea, growth, and development. The proposed study is meant to begin addressing this important gap by a clinical trial of lactoferrin supplementation in previously weaned children. Lactoferrin,an iron-binding protein with multiple physiological functions (anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory), is one of the most important proteins present in mammalian milk. Our hypothesis is that lactoferrin (given as a daily supplement in amounts similar to those consumed if the child were still breastfed) will improve health by mimicking its protective roles in milk. The significance of these studies is that they will prove feasibility of improving child health after the end of breastfeeding by continuing ingestion of a major protective milk protein. Diarrhea and malnutrition after weaning is a global problem that may be amenable to this approach.
The role of preoperative oral immunonutrition in major vascular surgery. The mean purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of post-operative infection complications after major vascular surgery in group of patients with preoperative oral immunonutrition. This group was compared to a control group. Secondary purpose was to evaluate the effect of preoperative oral immunonutrition on postoperative mortality (30 days), the medium length of stay in the hospital and the cost of treatment in the two groups
The purpose of this study is to determine the best form of dietary intervention to undernourished individuals with COPD. The research aims to test the null hypothesis that there is no difference between oral nutritional supplements and dietary advice.
