Abstract
Nutrition knowledge (NK) impacts food choices and may be improved through educational programmes. Identifying knowledge gaps related to NK among adolescent athletes may guide future nutrition education programmes. This review aimed to systematically review the level of NK in adolescent athletes based on the currently available published literature. The protocol for this review was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022321765). A literature search was conducted in April 2022 using MEDLINE, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, Web of Science and SCOPUS databases. The study design was not restricted, provided that a quantitative NK score was reported for adolescent athletes. Studies were limited to the English language and published between 2010 and April 2022. Studies were assessed for quality and risk of bias using the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Quality Appraisal Checklist. Data extracted included demographics, questionnaire name, number of items, validation status and mean total and subsection NK scores. Meta-analyses were inappropriate due to the heterogeneity of NK assessment tools; therefore, results were presented narratively. Thirty-two studies that assessed NK of 4553 adolescent athletes and 574 comparison participants were included. Critical appraisal of studies resulted in neutral rating 'moderate quality' for most (n 30) studies. Studies lacked justification for sample size and often used inadequately validated questionnaires. NK scores ranged from poor (33·3 %) to excellent (90·6 %). The level of NK across studies is difficult to determine due to heterogenous questionnaires often lacking appropriate validation. NK should be assessed using tools validated in the relevant population or revalidated tools previously used for other populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To analyze the effect of an exercise-nutrition management model based on the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) concept on patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical surgery for lung cancer. METHODS From June 2019 to December 2022, 85 lung cancer patients who underwent thoracoscopic radical lung cancer surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups. The control group, consisting of 42 patients, received routine nursing care during the perioperative period. The study group, comprising 43 patients, implemented an exercise-nutrition management model based on the ERAS concept during the perioperative period. We compared general data, perioperative indicators, compliance, and complications between the 2 groups. Additionally, we assessed the nutritional status using the patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA), albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA), and hemoglobin (Hb), as well as lung function, including forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) and maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV), in the patient population following the Piper intervention. RESULTS In the study group, the times to first defecation and getting out of bed, the duration of thoracic drainage tube indwelling, and the length of hospital stay were shorter than those in the control group. The VAS scores on the 2nd and 3rd postoperative days were lower in the study group than in the control group (P < .05). Medication compliance was higher in the study group compared to the control group (P < .05). Post-intervention, the PG-SGA scores in the study group were lower, while PA, ALB, and Hb levels were higher than those in the control group (P < .05). The MVV, FEV1, and FVC values were higher in the study group than in the control group after the intervention (P < .05). The PFS and mMRC scores were lower in the study group compared to the control group after the intervention, and the QLQ-C30 scores were higher (P < .05). The incidence of complications was 6.98% in the study group, which was not significantly different from 11.90% in the control group (P > .05). CONCLUSION The exercise-nutrition management model, based on the ERAS concept, exhibits significant perioperative effects in patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer, improving their nutritional status and reducing complications.

Abstract
Historically, the constructs of inclusion, diversity, equity, and access (IDEA) have not been sufficiently considered or included in population health nutrition research and practice. Consequently, current nutrition assessment benchmarks and knowledge translation tools may not accurately or adequately reflect diversity in the Canadian population or produce meaningful dietary guidance. The purpose of this current opinion paper is to introduce the population health nutrition research and practice framework and explore the current application of IDEA within this framework. Recommendations are offered to incorporate the constructs of IDEA along the continuum of future nutrition research and services to improve population nutritional health.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the study was to explore the thoughts, feelings, motivations, and assignment preferences of community health center patients with type 2 diabetes considering participation in a 2-year lifestyle intervention trial aimed at weight loss and increased physical activity. The reasons for patients' delivery mode preferences were also explored to aid in the design of future interventions for controlled trials. METHODS Using structured telephone interview guides, 57 patients with type 2 diabetes receiving primary care at 3 community health centers affiliated with an academic medical center were interviewed regarding the perceived pros and cons of each of the 3 possible treatment assignments: telephone conference group, in-person group, or individual medical nutrition therapy. The interview data were organized using NVIVO and analyzed using content analysis. Findings on whether preferences varied by age, gender, or diabetes duration were also examined. RESULTS Six categories related to patient treatment preferences were identified: (1) perception of time, (2) learning style, (3) comfort, (4) prior experience with weight loss programs and conference calls, (5) desire for support/idea exchange, and (6) accountability. Preferences did not seem to vary by age, gender, or diabetes duration. CONCLUSIONS Key factors influencing preference of treatment assignment included schedule demands, belief about learning style, and past experiences. These findings demonstrate the importance of having a variety of nutrition and lifestyle treatment options available to meet the needs of people with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Doctors are well placed to facilitate nutrition care to support dietary improvements due, in part, to their regular contact with their patients. Limited literature exists which explores the perspective of patients regarding the nutrition care provided by medical professionals across the continuum of care. This article explores the perspective of patients regarding perceptions of nutrition advice and care received from doctors and expectations of this care, including key skills and attributes the patients perceive as important. METHOD Six online focus groups were conducted with Australian service users (n=32). RESULTS Framework analysis identified four key themes: perceptions of doctors' role in nutrition care, expectations and experiences; the importance of individualised care; barriers and enablers to nutrition care; and topics, skills and attributes perceived as important in nutrition care. DISCUSSION Patients have a desire for individualised and collaborative nutrition care but experienced systemic barriers in practice.

Abstract
Refeeding syndrome (RFS) is a potentially life-threatening complication in malnourished (critically ill) patients. The presence of various accepted RFS definitions and the inclusion of heterogeneous patient populations in the literature has led to discrepancies in reported incidence rates in patients requiring treatment at an intensive care unit (ICU). We conducted a prospective observational study from 2010 to 2013 to assess the RFS incidence and clinical characteristics among medical ICU patients at a large tertiary center. RFS was defined as a decrease of more than 0.16 mmol/L serum phosphate to values below 0.65 mmol/L within seven days after the start of medical nutrition therapy or pre-existing serum phosphate levels below 0.65 mmol/L. Overall, 195 medical patients admitted to the ICU were included. RFS was recorded in 92 patients (47.18%). The presence of RFS indicated significantly altered phosphate and potassium levels and was accompanied by significantly more electrolyte substitutions (phosphate, potassium, and magnesium). No differences in fluid balance, energy delivery, and insulin requirements were detected. The presence of RFS had no impact on ICU length of stay and ICU mortality. Screening for RFS using simple diagnostic criteria based on serum phosphate levels identified critically ill patients with an increased demand for electrolyte substitutions. Therefore, stringent monitoring of electrolyte levels is indicated to prevent life-threatening complications.

Abstract
Background: Several factors can affect overall survival of head and neck cancer (HNC) patients, including characteristics of the cancer disease and response to treatments. However, patients' nutritional status and the effectiveness of medical nutrition therapy (MNT) can also impact overall survival. The primary goal of our research was to collect real-life data on the use of MNT in HNC patients and to specifically investigate the correlation between survival and the duration of uninterrupted (persistent) nutrition. Method: The data of this retrospective, analytical, cohort study was collected from electronic healthcare records from the Hungarian National Health Insurance Fund Management. Overall, 38,675 HNC patients' data of the period between 2012 and 2021 was used. We applied multi-step exclusions to identify patient groups accurately and to avoid biasing factors. Statistical analysis was done by the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox regression analysis. Results: Throughout the investigated period 16,871 (64%) patients received MNT therapy out of 26,253 newly diagnosed patients (≥18 years). In terms of the persistence of MNT, we divided the patients into three groups (1-3; 4-6; ≥7-month duration of MNT). When comparing these groups, we found that patients receiving long-term (≥7 months) MNT had a significantly longer overall survival (p < 0.0001) than those who received MNT for a shorter duration, both in locally advanced and recurrent/metastatic cases. Conclusion: The main outcome of the study is that there is a positive correlation between the persistence of MNT and the overall survival in HNC patients when nutritional intervention lasts several months. It highlights the responsibility of the specialists during the patient journey to use MNT early and to continue its use for as long as it is beneficial to the patients.

Abstract
Providing interventions that facilitate improvement of dietary intake and other health behaviors can improve nutrition-related outcomes in adults with overweight or obesity. Medical nutrition therapy (MNT) behavioral interventions require expertise from registered dietitian nutritionists or international equivalents (dietitians), which no other health care provider can provide for adults with obesity. Current evidence supports the role of MNT behavioral interventions for adults with overweight or obesity as an effective treatment option, when appropriate for and desired by the client. This Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Position Paper describes potential benefits and concerns regarding dietitian-provided MNT behavioral interventions for adults with overweight and obesity and informs dietitians about implications for practice. This Position Paper is supported by a systematic review examining effectiveness of MNT interventions provided by dietitians and by an evidence-based practice guideline. It is the position of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that MNT behavioral interventions for adults (aged 18 years and older) with overweight or obesity should be a treatment option, when appropriate and desired by the client, to improve cardiometabolic, quality of life, and anthropometric outcomes. Dietitians providing MNT recognize the complex contributors to overweight and obesity, and thus individualize interventions, based on a shared decision-making process, and deliver interventions in an inclusive, compassionate, and client-centered manner. Interventions should include collaboration with an interprofessional team when needed. Dietitians strive to increase health equity and reduce health disparities by advocating and providing opportunities for increased access to effective nutrition care services. This position remains in effect until December 31, 2031.

Abstract
Sarcopenia, defined as age-related decline in skeletal muscle mass and functional capacity, is a hallmark nutritional abnormality observed in patients with moderate-to-advanced CKD. Uremic state and associated medical conditions also predispose older patients with CKD to protein-energy wasting, a nutritional abnormality that could include sarcopenia. Prevention of protein and energy depletion and replenishing the already low nutritional reserves elderly patients with CKD should focus on conventional and innovative strategies. This review aims to provide an overview of the mainstay of nutritional therapy in this patient population, such as intake of adequate amounts of protein and energy along with preserving fluid, electrolyte, and mineral balance, and to discuss more innovative interventions to aid these approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional status is paramount in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and is directly correlated with morbidity and mortality. The first ESPEN-ESPGHAN-ECFS guidelines on nutrition care for infants, children, and adults with CF were published in 2016. An update to these guidelines is presented. METHODS The study was developed by an international multidisciplinary working group in accordance with officially accepted standards. Literature since 2016 was reviewed, PICO questions were discussed and the GRADE system was utilized. Statements were discussed and submitted for on-line voting by the Working Group and by all ESPEN members. RESULTS The Working Group updated the nutritional guidelines including assessment and management at all ages. Supplementation of vitamins and pancreatic enzymes remains largely the same. There are expanded chapters on pregnancy, CF-related liver disease, and CF-related diabetes, bone disease, nutritional and mineral supplements, and probiotics. There are new chapters on nutrition with highly effective modulator therapies and nutrition after organ transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes complicates ≤7% of pregnancies in the United States. Although medical nutrition therapy is the mainstay of diabetes treatment, many barriers exist to the successful implementation of dietary modifications. Home-delivered medically tailored meals (MTMs) are promising to overcome such barriers. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of home-delivered MTM in pregnant patients with diabetes. METHODS We performed a prospective cohort study of home-delivered MTM for pregnant patients with diabetes using a mixed-methods approach. Participants <35 wk of gestation at the time of enrollment received weekly home delivery of diabetes-specific meals. Qualitative semistructured interviews were conducted to gain insight into participants' experience. Diabetes self-efficacy was assessed pre- and postintervention using the Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale and 2-Item Diabetes Distress Screening Scale. The difference in mean scores was compared using t-tests with P value of <0.05 considered significant. Feasibility and acceptability were evaluated through participants' attitude toward MTM in qualitative interviews and indirectly evaluated through diabetes self-efficacy surveys. RESULTS Twenty pregnant people with diabetes who received home-delivered MTM during pregnancy were interviewed postpartum. Participants found this program convenient for various reasons, including reduced time for grocery shopping and preparing meals. Participants were satisfied with meals, citing a positive impact on diabetes management, accessibility of healthy foods, reduced stress with meal planning, and greater perceived control of blood glucose. Most participants shared meals with their families or received specific meals for their dependents, which was positively received. Reduced financial and mental stress was also widely reported. Diabetes self-efficacy was significantly improved postintervention with MTM. CONCLUSION Home-delivered MTM is feasible and acceptable in pregnant patients with diabetes and may improve diabetes self-efficacy. Individual experiences offered insight into various barriers overcome by using this service. Home-delivered MTM may help ensure an accessible, healthy diet for pregnant patients with diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Nutrition societies recommended remote hospital nutrition care during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. However, the pandemic's impact on nutrition care quality is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the association between remote nutrition care during the first COVID-19 wave and the time to start and achieve the nutrition therapy (NT) goals of critically ill patients. METHODS A cohort study was conducted in an intensive care unit (ICU) that assisted patients with COVID-19 between May 2020 and April 2021. The remote nutrition care lasted approximately 6 months, and dietitians prescribed the nutrition care based on medical records and daily telephone contact with nurses who were in direct contact with patients. Data were retrospectively collected, patients were grouped according to the nutrition care delivered (remote or in person), and we compared the time to start NT and achieve the nutrition goals. RESULTS One hundred fifty-eight patients (61.5 ± 14.8 years, 57% male) were evaluated, and 54.4% received remote nutrition care. The median time to start NT was 1 (1-3) day and to achieve the nutrition goals was 4 (3-6) days for both groups. The percentage of energy and protein prescribed on day 7 of the ICU stay concerning the requirements did not differ between patients with remote and patients with in-person nutrition care [95.5% ± 20.4% × 92.1% ± 26.4% (energy) and 92.9% ± 21.9% × 86.9% ± 29.2% (protein); P > 0.05 for both analyses]. CONCLUSION Remote nutrition care in patients critically ill with COVID-19 did not impact the time to start and achieve the NT goals.

Abstract
Phenylketonuria is characterized by intellectual disability and behavioral, psychiatric, and movement disorders resulting from phenylalanine (Phe) accumulation. Standard-of-care treatment involves a Phe-restricted diet plus medical nutrition therapy (MNT), with or without sapropterin dihydrochloride, to reduce blood Phe levels. Pegvaliase is an injectable enzyme substitution treatment approved for adult patients with blood Phe >600 μmol/L despite ongoing management. A previous comparative effectiveness analysis using data from the Phase 3 PRISM trials of pegvaliase (NCT01819727 and NCT01889862) and the Phenylketonuria Demographics, Outcomes and Safety Registry (PKUDOS; NCT00778206) suggested that pegvaliase was more effective at lowering mean blood Phe levels than sapropterin + MNT or MNT alone at 1 and 2 years of treatment. The current work augments and complements the previous analysis by including additional follow-up from the completed studies, robust methods reflecting careful consideration of issues with the distribution of Phe, and alternative methods for adjustment that are important for control of potential confounding in comparative effectiveness. Median blood Phe levels were lower, and median intact protein intakes were higher, in the pegvaliase group (n = 183) than in the sapropterin + MNT (n = 82) and MNT (n = 67) groups at Years 1, 2, and 3. In the pegvaliase group, median blood Phe levels decreased from baseline (1244 μmol/L) to Year 1 (535 μmol/L), Year 2 (142 μmol/L), and Year 3 (167 μmol/L). In the sapropterin + MNT group, median blood Phe levels decreased from baseline (900 μmol/L) to Year 1 (588 μmol/L) and Year 2 (592 μmol/L), and increased at Year 3 (660 μmol/L). In the MNT group, median blood Phe levels decreased slightly from baseline (984 μmol/L) to Year 1 (939 μmol/L) and Year 2 (941 μmol/L), and exceeded baseline levels at Year 3 (1157 μmol/L). The model-estimated proportions of participants achieving blood Phe ≤600 μmol/L were 41%, 100%, and 100% in the pegvaliase group at Years 1, 2, and 3, respectively, compared with 55%, 58%, and 38% in the sapropterin + MNT group and 5%, 16%, and 0% in the MNT group. The estimated proportions of participants achieving more stringent blood Phe targets of ≤360 μmol/L and ≤120 μmol/L were also higher in the pegvaliase group than in the other groups at Years 2 and 3. Overall, our results indicate that, compared with standard therapy, pegvaliase induces a substantial, progressive, and sustained decrease in blood Phe levels - to a much greater extent than sapropterin + MNT or MNT alone - which is expected to improve long-term outcomes in patients with phenylketonuria.

Abstract
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, utilization of telemedicine visits has increased. The outcomes of virtual compared to face-to-face (F2F) visits for treating hyperlipidemia are uncharacterized. This observational study compared pre- to post-visit change in lipid markers between 41 virtual and 151 F2F visits with a registered dietitian nutritionist at the University of Michigan Preventive Cardiology program from 3/31/2019-9/31/2022. Total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and triglycerides (TG) were collected pre- and post-visit with a median 33 days between collections. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) was calculated using the Sampson equation. We used paired T-tests to evaluate mean change in lipid markers for each visit type between pre and post timepoints, and linear regression to compare virtual to F2F visits. There was a significant decrease in TC, LDL-C, and non-HDL-C for both visit types. There was no significant difference in mean change in lipid markers between virtual and F2F visits. Telehealth is a promising strategy for increasing access to medical nutrition therapy.

Abstract
At the 45th Congress of ESPEN (The European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism), we presented for the first time the initial results of our 2023 oncology research, in which we revealed positive correlations between the persistence of medical nutrition therapy and overall survival, in head and neck cancer patients. Patients who received longterm nutrition therapy (≥7 months) had a significantly longer survival (p<0.0001) than those who received only short-term nutrition therapy intervention, i.e., for 1-3 months. The aim, methodology and results of the Hungarian research aroused the interest of the congress participants; therefore, we also publish it in Hungarian in the form of a short notice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES There is growing concern about the low-protein and high-energy diet therapies used in the treatment of inherited amino acid metabolism disorders. We aimed to identify the risk factors for noncommunicable diseases that may arise from nutritional therapies and suggests approaches that may prevent the development of the noncommunicable diseases. METHODS The present study evaluates 112 patients, on long-term nutritional therapy for at least the last 2 years with a diagnosis of an inborn error of the amino acid metabolism, and their 28 healthy siblings. The participants are assessed for the development of overweight and metabolic syndrome based on an analysis of anthropometric parameters, body composition and the results of biochemical tests. RESULTS Anthropometric measurements including BMI, weight Z-score, waist circumference and fat mass were not significantly different between patients and controls. Height Z-scores were similar in phenylketonuria patients compared to controls, but lower in urea cycle disorders, organic acidemia and maple syrup urine disease groups. No increased risk of development of overweight or metabolic syndrome was detected in the patient group, while there were findings suggesting malnutrition in patients diagnosed with urea cycle disorders. There was a correlation between patients' BMI and C3-carnitine levels in organic acidemia patients and leucine levels in maple syrup urine disease patients. CONCLUSIONS All forms of malnutrition can be prevented in patient groups receiving limited nutrients under a dietary management protocol, based on the findings of anthropometric and biochemical evaluations and analyses of body composition.

Abstract
Uptake of child weight management (CWM) support is typically low, and services are not available in all areas. Extended brief interventions (EBIs) have been proposed as an affordable way to provide enhanced support, at a level between one-off brief advice and intensive CWM programs. This rapid systematic review sought to synthesize evidence on the efficacy of EBIs for weight management and obesity prevention in children (2-18 years). Embase and Web of Science were searched from January 2012 to January 2022. Nineteen studies, reporting on 17 separate EBIs, were included. The quality of studies was variable, and the EBIs were heterogeneous. The majority of EBIs (n = 14) were based on motivational interviewing. Five of the included studies reported significant improvements in parent or child determinants of health behavior change. However, robust measures of behavioral determinants were rarely used. No studies reported significant positive effects on child weight. No clear patterns in outcomes were identified. There is currently insufficient evidence for EBIs to be adopted as part of CWM services. To improve the evidence base, EBIs that are currently being implemented by local health services, should be evaluated to establish the most effective content, how it should be delivered, and by whom.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Nutritional intervention, including nutritional counseling (NC), plays a significant role in the comprehensive management of patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of NC combined with oral nutritional supplements during radical treatment on weight loss and survival outcomes in patients with HNC. METHODS The study included 310 patients who received radical treatment for HNC. Among these patients, 119 underwent NC along with oral nutritional supplements (NCONS); 191 were supported with oral nutritional supplements only (ONS). The study aimed to investigate the effects of sex, disease stage, treatment modality, and tumor site on weight loss. Additionally, the Kaplan-Meier method assessed the influence of NC on overall survival and disease-free survival. RESULTS The present study suggested that the NC independently prevented weight loss, regardless of sex and disease stage (female: -1.6%, P = 0.001; male: -2.3 %, P = 0.003; T stage (0-2): -1.7%, P = 0.008; T stage (3-4): -2.7%, P = 0.003; N stage (0-1): 2.5%, P = 0,027; N stage (3-4): 2.9%, P < 0.001). The protective effect was most significant in patients with oral cancer and oropharyngeal cancer and in patients treated with chemotherapy (oral: -1.7%, P = 0.03; oropharynx: -3.3%, P < 0.001; radiochemotherapy: -3%, P = 0.028; induction chemotherapy preceded radiochemotherapy: -6%, P < 0.001). Furthermore, the 3-year overall survival rates were 93.4% and 85.4% in the NC along with oral nutritional supplements (NCONS) and oral nutritional supplement (ONS) groups, respectively (P = 0.031). CONCLUSIONS Patients with HNC who received NC during radical treatment experienced reduced weight loss. This effect was particularly pronounced in patients with oral cavity or oropharyngeal cancer and those undergoing chemotherapy. Additionally, NC was associated with improved overall survival in this patient cohort. Nevertheless, further studies are required to validate and support these findings.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Over 11 million individuals are incarcerated globally, facing health challenges such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, possibly exacerbated by prison diets. The objective of this scoping review is to explore the various available types of nutrition education interventions that currently exist in the literature applied in prison settings. RECENT FINDINGS Utilizing the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews, 19 databases were searched for studies on nutrition interventions in prisons from 2000 to May 2023, guided by the "PICO" structure. Inclusion criteria encompassed articles in five languages from peer-reviewed journals focusing solely on nutrition education interventions. Rayyan QCRI software was utilized for screening and data extraction. Fifteen international studies were analyzed, covering various countries and targeting different populations in prisons. Interventions varied from nutrition education to comprehensive health programs. The outcomes were inconsistent, with some showing health improvements and others encountering challenges. Few utilized established theoretical frameworks, indicating a research gap. The range of interventions highlights the potential complexity of nutrition education interventions within prisons. Implementing recognized theoretical frameworks may enhance effectiveness. The diverse outcomes highlight the challenges in creating impactful programs, emphasizing foundational issues. Recommendations focus on rigorous research designs and understanding prison-specific complexities. Nutrition education interventions in incarcerated settings present varied results, emphasizing the need for well-structured, theoretically grounded, and carefully evaluated programs. Future strategies should recognize the multifaceted nature of correctional facilities, aiming for holistic approaches to improve health in prisons.

Abstract
The complex treatment for diabetes type 1 (T1D) includes insulin dosing for every meal, which requires education and experience to achieve optimal outcomes. Advanced carbohydrate counting (ACC) is the recommended method. We studied ACC as part of a standard treatment with the aim to explore its associations with glycemic control and empowerment in adolescents and young adults. We used national registry data on glycemic outcomes, a study-specific questionnaire regarding the use of ACC and the Gothenburg Young Persons Empowerment Scale (GYPES) to measure empowerment. A total of 111 participants (10-28 years of age, diabetes duration >9 years, mean HbA1c of 55.4 mmol/mol) answered the questionnaire. We found that most participants (79.3%) who learn ACC, at onset or later, continue to use the method. A higher level of empowerment was associated with lower HbA1c (p = 0.021), making patient empowerment an important factor in achieving optimal glycemic outcomes. No associations were found between ACC and empowerment or glycemic outcomes. A mixed strategy, only using ACC sometimes when insulin dosing for meals, was associated with the lowest empowerment score and highest HbA1c and should warrant extra education and support from the diabetes team to reinforce a dosing strategy.

Abstract
The endogenous miRNAs of breast milk are the products of more than 1000 nonprotein-coding genes, giving rise to mature small regulatory molecules of 19-25 nucleotides. They are incorporated in macromolecular complexes, loaded on Argonaute proteins, sequestrated in exosomes and lipid complexes, or present in exfoliated cells of epithelial, endothelial, or immune origins. Their expression is dependent on the stage of lactation; however, their detection depends on progress in RNA sequencing and the reappraisal of the definition of small RNAs. Some miRNAs from plants are detected in breast milk, opening the possibility of the stimulation of immune cells from the allergy repertoire. Each miRNA harbors a seeding sequence, which targets mRNAs, gene promoters, or long noncoding RNAs. Their activities depend on their bioavailability. Efficient doses of miRNAs are estimated to be roughly 100 molecules in the cytoplasm of target cells from in vitro and in vivo experiments. Each miRNA is included in networks of stimulation/inhibition/sequestration, driving the expression of cellular phenotypes. Three types of stress applied during lactation to manipulate miRNA supply were explored using rodent offspring: a foster mother, a cafeteria diet, and early weaning. This review presents the main mature miRNAs described from current mothers' cohorts and their bioavailability in experimental models as well as studies assessing the potential of miR-26 or miR-320 miRNA families to alter offspring phenotypes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We sought to investigate the effects of gastrointestinal nutrition therapy on gastrointestinal microbial digestion and barrier defense markers in elderly patients with diabetes. METHODS A total of 120 elderly patients with type 2 diabetes were enrolled at our hospital between January 2020 and December 2022. The participants in this study were randomly allocated into either the nutritional group (n = 60) who underwent gastrointestinal nutrition therapy or the control group (n = 60) who underwent conventional T2DM diet management for a period of 12 weeks. Clinical data, as well as small intestinal permeability measured by the lactulose-mannitol urine test, plasma circulating IL-6 and zonulin levels measured by ELISA, and expressions of ZO-1 and Claudin-3 in blood analyzed through Western blotting were collected. RESULTS The nutrition group demonstrated a higher proportion of patients achieving HbA1c < 7% compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Moreover, the nutrition group exhibited a greater reduction in fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The concentrations of formate-tetrahydrofolate ligase and acetic CoA transferase were significantly increased in the nutrition group compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Fecal analysis revealed higher levels of acetic acid and butyric acid in the nutrition group compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The ratio of lactulose to mannitol was higher in the nutrition group compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the nutrition group showed lower levels of IL-6 and zonulin compared to the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Personalized gastrointestinal nutrition therapy was found to enhance the production of short-chain fatty acids and preserve intestinal permeability, leading to improved gastrointestinal microbial digestion and barrier defense in elderly patients with diabetes.

Abstract
Plant-based diets are growing in popularity worldwide due to the importance of reducing the population's ecological footprint as well as an emerging role in the prevention and treatment of chronic human diseases. In adults, plant-based diets have been shown to be beneficial for preventing and controlling conditions that are common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), such as obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and metabolic acidosis. Emerging evidence suggests that the higher fiber content of plant-based diets may help to modulate production of uremic toxins through beneficial shifts in the gut microbiome. The effects of the plant-based diet on progression of CKD remain controversial, and there are no data to support this in children. However, knowledge that the bioavailability of potassium and phosphorus from plant-based foods is reduced has led to recent changes in international kidney-friendly diet recommendations for children with CKD. The new guidelines advise that high potassium fruits and vegetables should no longer be automatically excluded from the kidney-friendly diet. In fact, a plant-based diet can be safely implemented in children with CKD through building the diet around whole, high fiber foods, avoiding processed foods and using recommended cooking methods to control potassium. The health benefits of the plant-based diet compared to omnivorous diets in children with CKD need investigation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate 4-point per day self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) every 2 weeks compared with every week. METHODS A total of 104 patients with lifestyle-controlled gestational diabetes (GDMA1) were randomized to 2-weekly or weekly 4-point per day (fasting on awakening and 2-h post-meals) SMBG. Primary outcome was the change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level from enrollment to 36 weeks of pregnancy across trial arms. The non-inferiority margin was an HbA1c increase of 0.2%. RESULTS The mean difference for change in HbA1c from enrollment to 36 weeks was 0.003% (95% confidence interval [CI] -0.098% to +0.093%), within the 0.2% non-inferiority margin. The change in HbA1c level increased significantly within both trial arms-0.275% ± 0.241% (P < 0.001) in 2-weekly arm versus 0.277% ± 0.236% (P < 0.001) in the weekly arm. Participants randomized to 2-weekly SMBG were significantly less likely to receive anti-glycemic treatment-5/52 (9.6%) versus 14/50 (28.0%) (relative risk 0.34, 95% CI 0.13-0.88; P = 0.017). All secondary outcomes-maternal weight gain, preterm delivery, cesarean delivery, birthweight, and neonatal admission-were not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS In GDMA1, 2-weekly is non-inferior to weekly SMBG on the change in HbA1c level. Two-weekly SMBG appeared to be adequate for monitoring women with GDMA1. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was registered in ISRCTN registry on March 25, 2022 with trial identification number: ISRCTN13404790 (https://doi.org/10.1186/ISRCTN13404790). The first participant was recruited on April 12, 2022.

CKD affects approximately half of US adults aged 65 years and older and accounts for almost 1 out of every 4 dollars of total Medicare fee-for-service spending. Efforts to prevent or slow CKD progression are urgently needed to reduce the incidence of kidney failure and reduce health care expenditures. Current CKD care guidelines recommend medical nutrition therapy (MNT), a personalized, evidence-based application of the Nutrition Care Process (assessment, intervention, diagnosis, and monitoring and evaluation) provided by registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) to help slow CKD progression, improve quality of life, and delay kidney failure. MNT is covered by Medicare Part B and most private insurances with no cost sharing. Despite recommendations that patients with CKD receive MNT and insurance coverage for MNT, utilization remains low. This article demonstrates low utilization of MNT and inadequate numbers of RDNs and RDNs who are board certified in renal nutrition relative to the estimated number of Medicare eligible adults with self-reported diagnosed CKD by state, with noted disparities across states. We discuss interventions to increase MNT utilization, such as improving MNT reimbursement, augmenting accessibility of RDNs via telenutrition services and increasing health care provider promotion of MNT and referral to MNT to optimize CKD outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Nutritional management of patients with esophageal cancer is a significant issue. This systematic review aimed to comprehensively synthesize qualitative research evidence on the experiences and requirements in nutritional management from the perspective of patients with esophageal cancer. METHODS A systematic review and meta-synthesis of qualitative studies were conducted. Studies written in Chinese or English were retrieved from nine databases, namely, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Embase, CNKI, WanFang, VIP, and SinoMed, from inception to December 23, 2022. After screening the titles, abstracts, and full texts, 19 articles were finally included for quality assessment and meta-synthesis. RESULTS Three comprehensive themes were derived. These were dietary experiences (perception of symptoms and dietary behaviors), emotional experiences (negative and positive emotions), and social support (inappropriate social support and inadequate nutritional management). CONCLUSIONS The experiences and requirements of esophageal cancer patients in terms of nutritional management during treatment and rehabilitation were reviewed and factors influencing nutritional management were discussed. The findings suggested that medical institutions should expedite the development of comprehensive nutritional management systems, create conducive nutritional environmental facilities, and establish interdisciplinary teams to implement personalized comprehensive interventional models for the management of patient nutrition. These steps would maximize the effectiveness of nutritional therapy, promote early patient recovery, and bridge the gap between healthcare professionals and patients in the understanding of nutritional management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Undernutrition in the critical first 1000 days of life is the most common form of childhood malnutrition, and a significant problem in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The effects of undernutrition in children aged under five years are wide-ranging and include increased susceptibility to and severity of infections; impaired physical and cognitive development, which diminishes school and work performance later in life; and death. Growth monitoring and promotion (GMP) is a complex intervention that comprises regular measurement and charting of growth combined with promotion activities. Policymakers, particularly in international aid agencies, have differing and changeable interpretations and perceptions of the purpose of GMP. The effectiveness of GMP as an approach to preventing malnutrition remains a subject of debate, particularly regarding the added value of growth monitoring compared with promotion alone. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness of child growth monitoring and promotion for identifying and addressing faltering growth, improving infant and child feeding practices, and promoting contact with and use of health services in children under five years of age in low- and middle-income countries. SEARCH METHODS We used standard, extensive Cochrane search methods. The latest search date was 3 November 2022. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs), cohort studies, and controlled before-after studies that compared GMP with standard care or nutrition education alone in non-hospitalised children aged under five years. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS We used standard Cochrane methods to conduct a narrative synthesis. Our primary outcomes were anthropometric indicators, infant and child feeding practices, and health service usage. Secondary outcomes were frequency and severity of childhood illnesses, and mortality. We used GRADE to assess the certainty of evidence for each primary outcome. MAIN RESULTS We included six studies reported in eight publications. We grouped the findings according to intervention. Community-based growth monitoring and promotion (without supplementary feeding) versus standard care We are unsure if GMP compared to standard care improves infant and child feeding practices, as measured at 24 months by the proportion of infants who have fluids other than breast milk introduced early (49.7% versus 70.5%; 1 study; 4296 observations; very low-certainty evidence). We are unsure if GMP improves health service usage, as measured at 24 months by the proportion of children who receive vitamin A (72.5% versus 62.9%; 1 study; 4296 observations; very low-certainty evidence) and the proportion of children who receive deworming (29.2% versus 14.6%; 1 study; 4296 observations; very low-certainty evidence). No studies reported selected anthropometric indicators (weight-for-age z-score or height-for-age z-score) at 12 or 24 months, infant and child feeding practices at 12 months, or health service usage at 12 months. Community-based growth monitoring and promotion (with supplementary feeding) versus standard care Two studies (with 569 participants) reported the mean weight-for-age z-score at 12 months, providing very low-certainty evidence: in one study, there was little or no difference between GMP and standard care (mean difference (MD) -0.07, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.19 to 0.06); in the other study, mean weight-for-age z-score worsened in both groups, but we were unable to calculate a relative effect. GMP versus standard care may make little to no difference to the mean height-for-age z-score at 12 months (MD -0.15, 95% CI -0.34 to 0.04; 1 study, 337 participants; low-certainty evidence). Two studies (with 564 participants) reported a range of outcome measures related to infant and child feeding practices at 12 months, showing little or no difference between the groups (very low-certainty evidence). No studies reported health service usage at 12 or 24 months, feeding practices at 24 months, or selected anthropometric indicators at 24 months. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS There is limited uncertain evidence on the effectiveness of GMP for identifying and addressing faltering growth, improving infant and child feeding practices, and promoting contact with and use of health services in children aged under five years in LMICs. Future studies should explore the reasons for the apparent limited impact of GMP on key child health indicators. Reporting of GMP interventions and important outcomes must be transparent and consistent.

Abstract
A short mother with a height < 150 cm is likely to give birth to a short baby with a body length < 48 cm so that later this short baby will become stunted. The success rate of stunting malnutrition prevention and control with specific methods is 30% and the success rate with sensitive methods is 70%. The size at risk for short pregnant women is equal to 30.5%. A major effort to improve the health status of short pregnant women and prevent stunting is to empower short pregnant women with the help of health professionals. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of providing nutrition education to pregnant women who have short stature to prevent gestational stunting. This study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design in the intervention group and the control group. Research results showed that there are differences in the knowledge, attitudes, and actions of pregnant women about prenatal care services before and after the intervention, as well as knowledge of pregnant women about nutrition before and after intervention. The support of the cadres had a great influence on the intervention group compared with the control group, which received only one module. Pregnant women's knowledge of nutritional diets and pregnant women's knowledge of antenatal care (ANC) services directly influence the delivery timing. Interventions to improve the health status of short pregnant women and prevent stunting neonates can be improved by improving the knowledge, attitudes, and behavior of short pregnant women about antenatal care, and knowledge of pregnant women about nutritional intake. The Short Pregnancy Medical Framework Support Model was developed for use in providing support to short pregnant women to prevent infant stunting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Serum albumin concentrations are frequently used to monitor nutritional therapy in the hospital setting but supporting studies are largely lacking. Within this secondary analysis of a randomized nutritional trial (EFFORT), we assessed whether nutritional support affects short-term changes in serum albumin concentrations and whether an increase in albumin concentration has prognostic implications regarding clinical outcome and response to treatment. METHODS We analyzed patients with available serum albumin concentrations at baseline and day 7 included in EFFORT, a Swiss-wide multicenter randomized clinical trial that compared individualized nutritional therapy with usual hospital food (control group). RESULTS Albumin concentrations increased in 320 of 763 (41.9%) included patients (mean age 73.3 years (SD ± 12.9), 53.6% males) with no difference between patients receiving nutritional support and controls. Compared with patients that showed a decrease in albumin concentrations over 7 days, those with an increase had a lower 180-day mortality [74/320 (23.1%) vs. 158/443 (35.7%); adjusted odds ratio 0.63, 95% CI 0.44 to 0.90; p = 0.012] and a shorter length of hospital stay [11.2 ± 7.3 vs. 8.8 ± 5.6 days, adjusted difference -2.2 days (95%CI -3.1 to -1.2)]. Patients with and without a decrease over 7 days had a similar response to nutritional support. CONCLUSION Results from this secondary analysis indicate that nutritional support did not increase short-term concentrations of albumin over 7 days, and changes in albumin did not correlate with response to nutritional interventions. However, an increase in albumin concentrations possibly mirroring resolution of inflammation was associated with better clinical outcomes. Repeated in-hospital albumin measurements in the short-term is, thus, not indicated for monitoring of patients receiving nutritional support but provides prognostic information.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Receiving medical nutrition therapy (MNT) from an accredited practising dietitian (APD) can reduce diet-related cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors. However, people living in rural areas of Australia experience barriers to accessing dietitians because of their remote location. Telehealth has the potential to improve dietetic access in rural areas; however, there is limited research into the development and delivery of telehealth MNT interventions specific to these areas. The present study describes the development of the Healthy Rural Hearts (HealthyRHearts) telehealth MNT intervention, which was developed as a part of the HealthyRHearts randomised control trial, set in primary care practices in rural areas of the Hunter New England and Central Coast Primary Health Network. The aim of HealthyRHearts is to improve diet-related risk factors for CVD in rural adults at moderate to high CVD risk using a telehealth MNT intervention delivered by an APD. METHODS The study describes the development of the HealthyRHearts telehealth MNT intervention, using the 14-item GUIDance for rEporting of intervention Development (GUIDED) checklist and the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) framework to guide description. RESULTS HealthyRHearts is a complex intervention that aims to translate a telehealth MNT intervention for CVD prevention into rural and remote primary care settings. The intervention is designed to be implemented across multiple sites of varying characteristics and needs, with the ability to accommodate individual complexities within the rural context and target population. Participants are adults aged 45-75 years who are assessed as moderate to high risk of CVD by their general practitioner (GP). Consenting participants are referred to the intervention by their GPs and receive five telehealth MNT consultations with an APD over 6-months. APDs are trained in the intervention protocol including intervention materials, resources and behaviour change counselling strategies. CONCLUSION Using the GUIDED and TIDieR frameworks to guide description of the HealthyRHearts intervention development process facilitates detailed description of decision-making pathways for each element of the intervention design. The comprehensive description of the intervention development process for HealthyRHearts is intended to facilitate replication, iteration and optimisation of the intervention for rural contexts.

Abstract
In-person culinary medicine (CM) can improve health behaviors, but its translation to virtual platforms and impact on diabetes outcomes are not well described. We designed a pragmatic trial comparing the effectiveness of virtual CM (eCM) to Medical Nutrition Therapy on diabetes outcomes among patients with uncontrolled diabetes within a safety-net healthcare system. All participants were provided cooking equipment and food from a food pantry. Due to low initial eCM participation, recruitment was paused, and eight semi-structured interviews were conducted to solicit feedback on study appeal, operations, and barriers to participation. Rapid thematic analysis was used to modify study operations. We found that participants were interested in the study and motivated by health concerns. While they valued food distribution and cooking equipment, they highlighted transportation barriers and conflicts with the pick-up time/location. Some eCM participants expressed discomfort with the virtual platform or preferred to observe rather than cook along. Study operations were modified by (1) moving supply pick-up to a familiar community clinic and diversifying food pick-up locations; (2) offering an in-person orientation to the program to increase comfort with the virtual platform; (3) emphasizing the credibility and relatability of the eCM instructor and encouraging participation of family members. This redesign led to the recruitment of 79 participants, of whom 75% attended at least one class. In conclusion, participant feedback informed pragmatic changes in study operations that increased engagement in this ongoing trial and may inform future eCM program design.
