Clin Res Hepatol Gastroenterol 2023; 47:102153. [PMID: 37364633 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinre.2023.102153] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 06/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023]
Abstract
The European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) guidelines, shortened in 2021, are widely used for providing the most suitable nutrition support to patients with cancer. However, there is a lack of specialized guidelines for different cancer types. In 2020, members of the French medical and surgical societies involved in digestive oncology, nutrition and supportive care developed the Thésaurus National de Cancérologie Digestive (TNCD) practice guidelines which are specific nutritional and physical activity guidelines for patients with digestive cancers. These guidelines were recently updated in 2022. This review discusses the French intergroup guidelines, specifically in the context of pancreatic cancer at different stages of the disease. Pancreatic cancer is highly prevalent in Europe, with an increasing worldwide incidence over the last three decades. In France alone, about 14,000 new cases of pancreatic cancer are reported annually. More than 60% of patients with pancreatic cancer reportedly experience malnutrition and other nutritional issues which are known to have a negative impact on quality of life, treatment tolerability, general morbidity, and mortality. Given that the recommendations of TNCD guidelines correlate to other guidelines like the International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS; for the perioperative setting), ESPEN and Spanish Society of Medical Oncology (SEOM) guidelines, their use can be suitably applied in other European countries. This review discusses the recommendations issued by nutrition guidelines, the challenges with effective integration of nutrition support in oncologic treatment, and the proposed algorithms on patient care pathways for pancreatic cancer management in the clinical setting.

Different Interactive Effects of Metformin and Acarbose With Dietary Macronutrient Intakes on Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Novel Findings From the MARCH Randomized Trial in China. Front Nutr 2022; 9:861750. [PMID: 35558742 PMCID: PMC9087800 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.861750] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 03/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Antidiabetic oral agents and nutrition management are frequently used together as first-line therapies for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, less is known about their interaction. The interactive effect of two classic antidiabetic medications, namely, acarbose and metformin, with dietary intakes of macronutrients on glycemic control and cardiometabolic risk factors was investigated in the metformin and acarbose in Chinese as the initial hypoglycemic treatment (MARCH) randomized clinical trial. The patients with newly diagnosed T2DM from China were included in the trial. Participants were randomized to receive either metformin or acarbose monotherapy as the initial treatment, followed by a 24-week treatment phase, during which add-on therapy was used if necessary. Dietary intakes of carbohydrate, protein, fat, and total energy were calculated by a 24-h food diary recall method. Linear mixed-effect models combined with a subgroup analysis were used to investigate independent and interactive effects of drugs and diet on clinical outcomes. A data analysis was performed on 551 of the 788 patients randomly assigned to treatment groups. Metformin therapy was independently associated with higher triglycerides (TGs, β = 0.471, P = 0.003), 2 h postprandial plasma glucose (2hPPG, β = 0.381, P = 0.046) but lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C, β = −0.149, P = 0.013) compared with acarbose therapy. Higher carbohydrates and lower fat intakes were independently associated with poorer glycemic control, less weight loss, and greater insulin secretion. Higher total energy intake was also independently associated with higher fasting (β = 0.0002, P = 0.001) and postprandial blood glucose (β = 0.0004, P = 0.001). Interaction and subgroup analyses demonstrated that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) was positively related to total energy (β = 0.268, P = 0.033), carbohydrates intake, and insulin secretion (β = 2,045.2, P = 0.003) only in the acarbose group, while systolic blood pressure (SBP) was negatively related to protein intake in the metformin group (β = 23.21, P = 0.014). The results of this study showed that metformin and acarbose mainly exerted different interactive effects with dietary energy, carbohydrate, and protein intakes on GLP-1 secretion, insulin release, and SBP. The interaction between drug therapy and nutrition intervention in glycemia highlights the complexity of combination therapy.

Abstract
Nutrition is a foundation of health and one of six pillars of Lifestyle Medicine. The importance of nutrition in clinical care is now widely recognized by health care professionals and the public. However, clinicians are not comfortable counselling their patients on nutrition due to inadequate or lack of training, leaving a significant need in patient care. This gap can be closed with evidence-based curricula in medical schools and in the trainings of other health care professionals. This communication presents the current state of nutrition knowledge in health care, emphasizing nutrition education for physicians, and presents a model of how pre- through post-professional health care providers may become proficient in nutrition counseling including appropriate referral to more specialized providers. With these skills, health care professionals will be able to initiate patient-centered lifestyle plans. This includes improving diet and utilization of team-based medicine and referrals.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The relation between a large body mass and comorbidity, certain types of cancers and musculoskeletal disorders has been extensively documented. However, a high proportion of overweight patients appears unaware of the medical risks of their condition and frequently underestimates their body weight. This observation is prevalent across numerous medical specialties and settings. METHODS This study analysed the misperception of obesity status in a cohort of 1137 patients attending an orthopaedic clinic by means of self-completed questionnaires and objective biometrics. RESULTS Patients displayed a poor estimation of the self-body mass index (34.6%), especially among larger individuals, with 45.15% of pre-obese and 21.17% of obese patients previously attempting weight-loss. A direct association between low educational achievement and obesity rates was observed in orthopaedic patients. DISCUSSION Obesity is a well-known contributor to many conditions, including musculoskeletal diseases. Despite this association, many obese patients consider their body mass as normal. Misperception of self-body weight has been documented in many medical specialities, and this study confirms the same scenario in orthopaedic patients. CONCLUSION The association between self-image distortion and obesity observed in this study may assist in the evaluation and management of obesity cases in orthopaedic clinics.

Abstract
On August 13-14, 2019, the Healthcare Nutrition Council and the ASN held the Medical Foods Workshop: Science, Regulation, and Practical Aspects. Medical food products help patients manage their disease and improve their quality of life. Yet many hurdles exist to getting patients new products. In this workshop, participants addressed some of these hurdles, with specific emphasis on topics like the statutory term distinctive nutritional requirements, the regulatory term modification of the diet alone, the role of clinical guidelines, the requirement that medical foods be used under medical supervision, and differentiation of foods for special dietary use from medical foods, as well as product innovation and future research. Real-world examples were discussed for intractable epilepsy, diabetes, end-stage renal disease, and inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
Educating physicians early and often on how to have conversations with patients about diet to prevent and treat chronic disease is imperative, yet under realized. Some innovative medical schools have begun implementing hands-on cooking (HOC) programs to fill this gap, but how these programs are promoted is unknown. This study assessed the prevalence and innovation characteristics of HOC programs offered to medical students in the USA. Content analysis of webpages was conducted using a Diffusion of Innovation (e.g., relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trialability, and observability) framework. Themes of relative advantage included increasing students' confidence, improvements in medical and interprofessional education, and translating into a benefit to patients through improved care. Compatibility codes showed only a quarter of webpages referred to the program as "evidence-based." Complexity codes showed most (86%) webpages clearly described the course. About half the webpages described the program as an elective, suggesting trialability of this innovation. Many (43%) of the programs referenced use of a standardized "culinary medicine" curriculum, contributing to the observability of this innovation. Within the sample of schools, 35% provided HOC programs for their students. These findings suggest HOC programs have a strong foothold in healthcare education and provide a framework from which future studies might examine what effects innovative, successful HOC programs have on curriculum development, student experience, and, ultimately, patient outcomes.

Abstract
The Nutrition Society's 1st Annual Nutrition and Cancer Networking Conference brought together scientists from the fields of Nutrition, Epidemiology, Public Health, Medical Oncology and Surgery with representatives of the public, cancer survivors and cancer charities. Speakers representing these different groups presented the challenges to collaboration, how the needs of patients and the public can be met, and the most promising routes for future research. The conference programme promoted debate on these issues to highlight current gaps in understanding and barriers to generating and implementing evidence-based nutrition advice. The main conclusions were that the fundamental biology of how nutrition influences the complex cancer risk profiles of diverse populations needs to be better understood. Individual and population level genetics interact with the environment over a lifespan to dictate cancer risk. Large charities and government have a role to play in diminishing our current potently obesogenic environment and exploiting nutrition to reduce cancer deaths. Understanding how best to communicate, advise and support individuals wishing to make dietary and lifestyle changes, can reduce cancer risk, enhance recovery and improve the lives of those living with and beyond cancer.

Abstract
Personalized nutrition holds tremendous potential to improve human health. Despite exponential growth, the field has yet to be clearly delineated and a consensus definition of the term "personalized nutrition" (PN) has not been developed. Defining and delineating the field will foster standardization and scalability in research, data, training, products, services, and clinical practice; and assist in driving favorable policy. Building on the seminal work of pioneering thought leaders across disciplines, we propose that personalized nutrition be defined as: a field that leverages human individuality to drive nutrition strategies that prevent, manage, and treat disease and optimize health, and be delineated by three synergistic elements: PN science and data, PN professional education and training, and PN guidance and therapeutics. Herein we describe the application of PN in these areas and discuss challenges and solutions that the field faces as it evolves. This and future work will contribute to the continued refinement and growth of the field of PN.Teaching pointsPN approaches can be most effective when there is consensus regarding its definition and applications.PN can be delineated into three main areas of application: PN science and data, PN education and training, PN guidance and therapeutics.PN science and data foster understanding about the impact of genetic, phenotypic, biochemical and nutritional inputs on an individual's health.PN education and training equip a variety of healthcare professionals to apply PN strategies in many healthcare settings.PN professionals have greater ability to tailor interventions via PN guidance and therapeutics.Favorable policy allows PN to be more fully integrated into the healthcare system.

Abstract
Obesity and its comorbidities have become the most important public health problems for Latin America. In Mexico obesity has increased dramatically to the point where the government has declared it an epidemiological emergency. The most recent national data showed overweight and obesity affects 72.5% of adults, or around 56 million Mexicans. Most Mexican adults with obesity are undiagnosed. According to data derived from a national representative survey, only 20% of adults with BMI >30 kg/m2 were diagnosed with obesity by a health provider. Likewise, only 8% of individuals with obesity had received treatment for obesity. Interventions offered in the Mexican health care delivery system generally consist of traditional consultations with recommendations on diet and exercise, visits are monthly to quarterly, and validated behavior change protocols are not used. Evidence from clinical trials has shown that weight loss with this type of treatment is generally less than 1 kg per year. In contrast, intensive lifestyle interventions - protocols focusing on achieving changes in diet, physical activity, and moderate weight loss using behavioral strategies with weekly or bi-weekly sessions for the first 3 to 6 months, and a maintenance phase with trained interventionists - as implemented in the Diabetes Prevention Program and the Look AHEAD studies achieved weight loss of 7-9% at one year. Additionally, translation studies of these interventions to the community and to real-world clinical practice have achieved weight loss of around 4%. Adaptations of intensive lifestyle interventions have been implemented in the United States, both in clinical practice and in the community, and this type of intervention represents a potential model to combat obesity in Mexico and other Latin American countries. It is essential that primary care providers in Mexico implement clinical practice guidelines based on the best evidence available as discussed here to effectively treat obesity. The authors make recommendations to improve the treatment of obesity in the clinical care delivery system in Mexico using intensive lifestyle interventions.
