Filter by:The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Child Obesity Program (COP), which is a school-based, parent-based, weight management program aimed mobile application at preventing overweight and obesity in childhood.
Purpose: Undernutrition is common in neurologically impaired children. It increases the burden of comorbidities and affects the quality of life of these children. It must be recognized and treated as early as possible. This study aimed primarily to compare the efficacy of high-caloric whey-based partially hydrolyzed formula (HC-WPHF) versus standard feeding on the nutritional status reflected by growth parameters and feeding tolerance in undernourished children with neurological impairment (NI). The secondary aim was to compare the change in these parameters after using HC-WPHF for 3 and 6 months.
1. Master and analyze the nutritional health, growth and development status of primary and secondary school students in Shenzhen, and discover the main nutritional health, growth and development problems and influencing factors. 2. Provide basic data and evidence-based basis for the municipal government and related departments to formulate child health policies and measures.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the implementation of an algorithm for enteral nutrition support compared with usual standard practice in children with malnutrition status with congenital heart disease
This is an acceptability study (including gastrointestinal tolerance, compliance and palatability) of a high energy peptide based paediatric oral nutritional supplement for children over 12 months of age. The acceptability data from a minimum of 15 participants will be collected in order to submit an application to the Advisory Committee on Borderline Substances (ACBS).
Background: Most patients with cerebral palsy (CP) are dependent on parents due to the spasticity and limitations in their gross motor function. Additionally, many of them do not respond to physical therapy due to deterioration in their nutritional status, which is secondary to gastrointestinal disorders, parasitosis, dysbiosis and the catabolic state of the disease itself. Evidence suggests that greater independence and better clinical response can be achieved by correcting the nutritional status. However, basic treatments only contemplate the calculation of energy requirements and do not consider important nutrients in particular, supplementation with glutamine, arginine, zinc, selenium, colecalciferol, nicotinic acid, spirulina, omega 3, ascorbic acid, vegetal protein or even probiotics. Objective: To determine the effect of using a nutritional support system (NSS) diet, supplements and probiotic on the gross motor function in children with CP with spastic diparesic and Gross Motor Function Classification System III (GMFCS III). Material and methods: In an exploratory study with controlled clinical trial design, 30 patients were randomly assigned to receive: 1) dietary surveillance and conventional therapy (FG), 2) deworming and WHO diet (CG), or 3) deworming and the NSS (IG). The patients were recruited from the Children´s Telethon Rehabilitation Center (CRIT) in Tlalnepantla Estado de México. Males and females aged 4-12 years were included with CP and spastic diparesic GMFCS III, who had a full-time caregiver and whose parents agreed to participate. They were studied for thirteen weeks. Gross motor function was evaluated at baseline and at 7 and 13 weeks after therapy using the GMFM scale.
