Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: An agreement of basic nutritional terminology to be used in clinical practice, research, and the ESPEN guideline developments has been established and may help to support future global consensus efforts and updates of classification systems such as the International Classification of Disease.

1,294 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The focus of this guideline is to cover nutritional aspects of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) concept and the special nutritional needs of patients undergoing major surgery, e.g. for cancer, and of those developing severe complications despite best perioperative care.

1,096 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The causes and consequences of cancer-related malnutrition are examined, treatment approaches currently available are reviewed, and the rationale and impetus for clinicians involved with care of patients with cancer to take actions that facilitate nutrition support in practice are built.

679 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The recommended perioperative management of patients with IBD undergoing surgery accords with general ESPEN guidance for patients having abdominal surgery, and primary therapy using nutrition to treat IBD is moderately well supported in Crohn's disease.

427 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: An evidence- and consensus-based guideline addresses clinical questions on best medical nutrition therapy in patients with neurological diseases and offers 88 recommendations for use in clinical practice for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, stroke and multiple sclerosis.

288 citations



Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of probiotic consumption on glycemic control, lipid profile, inflammation, oxidative stress and short chain fatty acids in Type 2 diabetes patients were investigated in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial.

238 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Pre-therapeutic sarcopenia was significantly and independently associated with post-operative complications, chemotherapy-induced toxicity and poor survival in cancer patients, and has severe consequences for outcomes of cancer patients.

235 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the use of probiotic capsule for 12 weeks among subjects with MS had favorable effects on EDSS, parameters of mental health, inflammatory factors, markers of insulin resistance, HDL-, total-/HDL-cholesterol and MDA levels.

199 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Disease-related malnutrition is a highly prevalent condition that imposes a substantial health and economic burden on the countries of Latin America and was associated with an increase in infectious and non-infectious clinical complications, length of hospital stay, and costs.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Indirect calorimetry is a tool of paramount importance, necessary to optimize the nutrition therapy of patients with various pathologies and conditions, and recent technical developments allow broader use of IC for in- and out-patients.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The relationship between malnutrition and hospital costs; the influence of confounders on, and the drivers (medical or surgical patients or degree of malnutrition) of the relationship; and whether hospital reported cost data provide similar information to administrative data were determined.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Authors from different disciplines including endocrinology, gastroenterology, nephrology, pediatrics, surgery, geriatrics, intensive care medicine, psychology and psychiatry, sports medicine and rheumatology present their view on the topic and underline the necessity to provide a multidisciplinary approach, to address this epidemic.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Multivariate analysis showed that FIM motor domain and FILS scores were independently associated with skeletal muscle mass loss and decreased muscle strength in the convalescent rehabilitation ward inpatients.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Malnutrition is prevalent up to 83% in older patients with cancer scheduled to receive chemotherapy, and low Mini-Nutritional-Assessment score was an independent predictor of early discontinuation of chemotherapy and increased the risk of mortality.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This narrative review was aimed at exploring the pathophysiology of PEW in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis, as well as the current approaches for the prevention and treatment of ESRD-related PEW.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Exposure to famine in early life had sex-specific association with metabolic syndrome in adulthood, and suggests the adverse effects of malnutrition might extend beyond the 'first 1000 days' and last 9 years.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Adherence to DASH diet is effective in improving circulating serum inflammatory biomarkers in adults, compared with usual diet; therefore, it could be a valuable strategy to suppress inflammation process.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A frequent consumption of legumes, particularly lentils, in the context of a Mediterranean diet, may provide benefits on type 2 diabetes prevention in older adults at high cardiovascular risk.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In a mixed Asian ICU population, mNUTRIC score is independently associated with 28-day mortality, and higher nutritional adequacy was associated with a lower predicted 28- day mortality in patients with a high mNUTrition RIsk score.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is found that higher intake of dietary AGEs is associated with significantly higher levels of free plasma and urinary CML, CEL and MG-H1, and these findings may have important implications for those who ingest a diet rich in A GEs.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The study data demonstrated that MSPrebiotic® meets the criteria of a prebiotic and can stimulate an increased abundance of endogenous Bifidobacteria in both ELD and MID without additional probiotic supplementation.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A simple algorithm is proposed to guide the interpretation of TTR levels as a helpful tool for day-to-day practice and is a good marker for prognosis associated with malnutrition, and is even better for monitoring refeeding efficacy despite inflammation.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This study showed that those who received a vitamin D and leucine-enriched whey protein medical nutrition drink for 13 weeks gained more appendicular muscle mass, and improved lower-extremity function as assessed by the chair stand test compared with controls, suggesting that current cut-offs in the recommendations foritamin D and protein intake could be considered the "minimum" for adults with sarcopenia to respond adequately to nutrition strategies aimed at attenuating muscle loss.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It was showed that well-nourished subjects had a significantly higher number of pairs of teeth/Functional Teeth Units (FTU) in comparison to individuals with risk of malnutrition or malnutrition and FTU and mean number of teeth present were significantly associated with nutritional status.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Marine n-3 PUFAs are likely to be an important tool for NAFLD treatment, although further studies are required to confirm this.
