Filter by:This prospective observational study evaluates changes in resting basal metabolic rate in 51 adult patients undergoing elective major orthopedic surgery (hip, knee, or spine surgery).
This is an exploratory controlled before-after study, which involves 112 participants, of whom 28 are with normal weight and 84 are overweight or obese. Twelve weeks of personalized nutritional and lifestyle weight reduction intervention will be conducted in the overweight or obese participants. The objectives of this study are to 1) characterize metabolic homeostasis under resting and exercise conditions, 2) to explore the potential impact factors on metabolic homeostasis, and 3) to investigate whether personalized nutritional and lifestyle weight reduction intervention can improve metabolic health in overweight or obese Chinese individuals and how is it comparable to healthy normal weight Chinese population.
1. Pre operative anthropometric assessment including : weight in kg, height/length and BMI 2. Pre operative Zinc supplementation (dose according to the age) for 7 days preoperatively for cases 3. Postoperative data collection
This study examines the effects of prosthetic treatment options applied to edentulous geriatric individuals who applied to Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry on chewing function, food consumption status, malnutrition status and oral health-related quality of life.
Is dietary intake of advanced glycation different between individuals with and without migraine? Is there a difference between the groups in terms of energy and nutrients? The answers to these questions are sought.
The goal of this prospective longitudinal observational cohort study is to determine the nutritional intake, nutritional status, and physical activity level in people who have undergone a major dysvascular lower limb amputation (LLA) at different moments post-LLA (during hospital admission several days post-LLA, and at 5 weeks, 6 months, and 9 months post-LLA). The main questions this study aims to answer are: - What is the nutritional intake, nutritional status, and physical activity level at different moments post-LLA? - What is the association between nutritional intake and physical activity level, and nutritional status? - What is the association between nutritional intake, nutritional status and physical activity level and clinical outcomes (mortality, wound healing, quality of life, physical functioning)?
The purpose of this prospective, cross-sectional, observational study is to measure the nutrient composition of donated human breastmilk purchased from commercial human milk banks in North America
Even if awareness among nurses regarding the importance of nutritional care for older people has increased in recent years, nurses continue to underestimate the necessary approach to prevent malnutrition. Therefore, some authors have argued the critical importance of understanding which factors can influence nurses' caring behaviors during real situations and affect the prevention and management of malnutrition under actual working conditions. Specifically, the relationship between nurses' attitudes, knowledge, and self-efficacy in nutritional care for older people has not been described yet. Understanding these relationships can provide a framework to enhance adequate caring behaviors, mitigating the negative attitudes. Considering that self-efficacy has been previously theorized in several populations as the mediator of the relationship from knowledge and attitudes to specific behaviors, the investigators hypothesized that knowledge and attitudes in the specific area of nursing nutritional care have moderately positive effects on nursing caring behaviors in nutritional care only through the mediation of nursing self-efficacy. The study design is a multi-phase, descriptive observational cross-sectional, multicentric study, collecting data using a web-survey.
This research 34.-36. is carried out as a randomized controlled experimental design in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the supplemental feeding system to improve the early feeding skills of preterm infants receiving care in the neonatal intensive care unit at the gestational week.The universe of this research will consist of preterm infants hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care of Sanlıurfa Training and Research Hospital between July 2022 and April 2023. The sample size in the study was "H00: There is no difference between preterm infants with supplemental feeding system and preterm infants fed with bottle in terms of early feeding skills." According to the hypothesis G*Power Version 3.1.9.2 (Franz Foul, Universitat Kiel, Germany) was calculated in the program. In order to determine the difference between the groups, the number of groups is 2; number of repeated measurements 3; correlation between repeated measurements 0.5; Cohen* effect size 0.25; The statistical power was determined as a sample size of 44 preterm infants, 22 of whom were fed with supplemental feeding system and 22 of whom were fed with bottle, with 95% and type 1 error of 5%. and infants assigned to groups by randomization method. Randomization in the study determined by entering the total number of cases through the program http://www.randomizer.org. Through this program, the infants forming the sample group randomly distributed to two groups and randomization made.
This is a placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess whether Guanfacine Extended Release (GXR) reduces aggression and self injurious behavior in individuals with Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS). In addition, the study will establish the safety of GXR with a specific focus on metabolic effects.
