Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate measurements of resting energy expenditure (REE) are important for determining nutritional needs in HIV patients. Indirect calorimetry (IC) is a noninvasive method that reflects REE but can be costly and is frequently calculated with predictive equations. Research suggests that REE obtained by predictive equations in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH) is inaccurate. The aim of the study is to develop and validate a new predictive equation of REE based on a population of PLWH. METHODS Cross-sectional study including 164 PLWH (82 to develop and 82 to validate the equation). Multiple linear regression was used to determine the relationship between variables and to develop the new predictive equation. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Bland-Altman methods were used to evaluate agreement between the new predictive equation and indirect calorimetry. RESULTS A new predictive equation with an accuracy of 67% when compared with IC was developed. This equation included as covariates: fat free mass, antiretroviral therapy status and age. CONCLUSION A new equation to predict energy expenditure in PLWH was developed and validated. This formula can be used to estimate REE if IC is not available.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Determination of the resting energy expenditure (REE) is essential for planning nutrition therapy in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) to help to improve their nutrition status. We aim to evaluate the agreement and accuracy of prediction equations that estimate the REE in a Mexican population with a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS with and without antiretroviral therapy (ART). METHODS A cross-sectional study in Mexican patients with HIV/AIDS with and without ART. Weight, height, and body composition measured with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry were evaluated. The REE was determined with indirect calorimetry and estimated using the Mifflin-St Jeor (MSJ), Harris-Benedict (HB), Schofield 1 and 2, Cunningham, Melchior 91, Melchior 93, and Batterham equations. The Bland-Altman method assessed agreement between the real and estimated values, and the percent difference between these values was used to assess the prediction accuracy. RESULTS Sixty-five adults without ART and 102 adults with ART were included. The mean REE (kcal/kg) was 24.8 ± 2.4 and 23.8 ± 3.6 in patients without and with ART, respectively. Good agreement and reliability were observed in the HB (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC], 0.75; P < .05), Batterham (ICC, 0.79; P < .05), Schofield 1 (ICC, 0.74; P < .05), and Schofield 2 (ICC, 0.78; P < .05) results in individuals without ART. In individuals with ART, good agreement and reliability were observed with the HB equation (ICC, 0.76; P < .05). The MSJ equation showed good agreement with poor reliability (ICC, 0.05; P < .05). CONCLUSION The equations with the best agreement and accuracy were Schofield 2, Batterham, and HB in individuals without ART and HB and MSJ in the population with ART.

Abstract
This review provides clinicians with a comprehensive overview of indirect calorimetry including the principles, methodology, technologic advancements, benefits, and challenges. Clinical applications for indirect calorimetry and the potential limitations are specifically addressed for both the inpatient and outpatient setting. Measurement of energy expenditure is the most accurate method to assess energy needs. Indirect calorimetry remains a gold standard in measuring energy expenditure in the clinical settings. The benefits of providing optimal nutrition for recovery from illness and chronic health management are well documented. Indirect calorimetry offers a scientifically-based approach to customize a patient's energy needs and nutrient delivery to maximize the benefits of nutrition therapy. With recent advances in technology, indirect calorimeters are easier to operate, more portable, and affordable. Increased utilization of indirect calorimetry would facilitate individualized patient care and should lead to improved treatment outcomes.

Abstract
Integration of HIV and food security services is imperative to improving the health and well-being of people living with HIV. However, consensus does not exist on definitions and measures of food security to guide service delivery and evaluation in the context of HIV. This paper reviews definitions and indicators of food security used by key agencies; outlines their relevance in the context of HIV; highlights opportunities for harmonized monitoring and evaluation indicators; and discusses promising developments in data collection and management. In addition to the commonly used dimensions of food availability, access, utilization and stability, we identify three components of food security-food sufficiency, dietary quality, and food safety-that are useful for understanding and measuring food security needs of HIV-affected and other vulnerable people. Harmonization across agencies of food security indicators in the context of HIV offers opportunities to improve measurement and tracking, strengthen coordination, and inform evidence-based programming.

Abstract
Maintaining a good nutritional status is important for immune health and for managing metabolic comorbidities in adults with HIV infection. Little is known about the dietary habits of adults living with HIV infection in the United Kingdom. The aims of this study were to characterise their dietary intakes, and to identify subgroups of patients who may require nutritional counselling and/or food support services. An observational study of adults attending a London HIV out-patient clinic who completed a demographics questionnaire and a structured 24 h diet recall interview was conducted. In all, 196 (162 men, 34 women) adults participated. Forty-three percent (n=66) of men and thirty-six percent (n=11) of women did not consume enough energy to meet their basal metabolic requirements and activity factor. The majority of both men (64%) and women (56%) consumed more than the recommended amount of saturated fat. Self-report of lipodystrophy (B coefficient -2.27 (95% CI -3.92 to -0.61), P=0.008) was associated with lower dietary fibre intake/1000 kcal per day, and a more recent diagnosis of HIV (B coefficient -0.11 (95% CI -0.20 to -0.02), P=0.013) was associated with a higher dietary fibre/1000 kcal intake per day. Recreational drug use was associated with a higher overall calorie (P=0.003) and protein (P=0.001) intake than non-usage after adjusting for basal metabolic requirements and weight, respectively. Our data describe the dietary intakes of a diverse group of adults with HIV infection in the United Kingdom. These dietary habits may have an impact on their overall health and development of other metabolic comorbidities common in people with HIV.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: In view of the practical need to use equations for the evaluation of energy expenditure in HIV-infected patients, the objective of the present study was to determine the concordance between the energy expenditure values obtained by indirect calorimetry as the gold standard and those obtained by predictive equations elaborated from data for the healthy population: Harris-Benedict, Schofield and Cunningham, and by equations elaborated from data for HIV-infected patients: Melchior (1991-1993). METHODS: The study was conducted at the Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto on 32 HIV-infected men under treatment with highly active antiretroviral therapy. Resting energy expenditure was measured by indirect calorimetry and estimated on the basis of measurement of O2 consumption and CO2 production. RESULTS: Statistical analysis revealed weak concordance for the Harris-Benedict (0.38) and Cunningham (0.34) equations and satisfactory concordance for the Schofield equation (0.47). Only the two Melchior equations (1991 and 1993) showed strong concordance with the values obtained by indirect calorimetry (0.63 and 0.66, respectively) and could be used in practice. CONCLUSION: The best equations seem to be population-specific, such as the Melchior equations elaborated for HIV-infected patients.

Abstract
Metabolic abnormalities are common in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and range from protein catabolism to lipodystrophy and dyslipidemia associated with the use of highly active antiretroviral therapy. One abnormality is increased resting energy expenditure, which even occurs in clinically stable HIV-infected patients. Increased resting energy expenditure may aggravate the tendency towards weight loss and wasting, which are independent predictors of mortality. Despite much investigation, the factors associated with altered resting energy expenditure remain unclear; viral load, CD4 cell count, use of antiretroviral drugs, body composition, hormones, and proinflammatory cytokines have been imputed. Mechanisms that could explain increased resting energy expenditure include the HIV accessory protein viral protein R, antiretroviral drugs that affect mitochondrial function, and futile cycling within adipocytes. Other components of energy expenditure are also important to overall energy balance and may also be affected. Identifying unifying mechanisms will be an important step to finding effective treatments for HIV-related alterations in energy expenditure and to reversing metabolic risks in patients with HIV infection.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To recognize the fundamental factors that alter energy expenditure on a daily basis and the impact they have on the measurement of caloric consumption by the human body, through respiratory indirect calorimetry, and thus to try to determine which predictive equation best correlates with total energy expenditure generated from energy measurements. RECENT FINDINGS The most important compartment of the body, for its metabolic activity and influence upon resting metabolic rate, is fat-free mass. Other variables affecting energy expenditure are sex, weight, height, age, body surface area, fat mass and ethnicity. Metabolic and activity factors such as the thermic effect of nutrients, facultative thermogenesis, anabolism/growth and physical activity, also contribute, comprising total daily energy expenditure. Following the pioneering work of Harris and Benedict for the estimation of energy expenditure, several authors turned their experimental interest to this area, and various recent predictive formulae were derived. These are useful and easy to apply in daily clinical nutrition practice. However, because of the cited variables upon energy expenditure, the final daily caloric estimates show inherent errors ranging from -23.5 to +22.5% upon measured caloric expenditure. These are particularly remarkable in critically ill patients who are exposed to medical and surgical interventions. SUMMARY One has to be careful in choosing, understanding and clinically applying the results from predictive equations, bearing in mind that the original population from which the equation was derived does not always correspond to that currently being evaluated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is conflict in the literature about the extent of alterations of resting energy expenditure (REE) in persons with HIV. OBJECTIVE The study was conducted to ascertain the mean difference in REE (in kJ) per kilogram of fat-free mass (FFM; REE/FFM) between HIV-positive subjects and control subjects and to investigate heterogeneity in the literature. DESIGN A meta-analysis comparing classical and Bayesian methods was conducted. Heterogeneity was investigated by using subgroup analysis, metaregression, and a mixed indirect comparison. RESULTS Of 58 studies meeting the inclusion criteria, 32 included both HIV-positive and control groups; 24 of these 32 were included. Thirty-seven studies were used in the mixed indirect comparison, and 30 were used in the subgroup comparisons of the HIV-symptomatic, lipodystrophy, weight-losing, and weight-stable subgroups and the healthy (HIV-negative) control group. Mean REE/FFM was significantly higher in 732 HIV-positive subjects than in 340 control subjects [11.93 kJ/kg (95% CI: 8.44,15.43 kJ/kg) and 12.47 kJ/kg (95% CI: 8.19,16.57 kJ/kg), classical and Bayesian random effects, respectively]; the test for heterogeneity was significant (P < 0.001). Both the mixed indirect comparison and the subgroup analysis indicated that REE/FFM was highest in the symptomatic subgroup; however, the small number of studies investigating symptomatic subjects limited statistical comparisons. The presence of lipodystrophy, use of highly active antiretroviral therapy, subject age, and method of body-composition measurement could not explain the heterogeneity in the data with the use of metaregression. CONCLUSIONS REE/FFM (kJ/kg) is significantly higher in HIV-positive subjects than in healthy control subjects. Symptomatic HIV infection may contribute to the variations reported in the literature.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES There have been claims that l-ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate (OKG) exerts anticatabolic, anabolic, and immunomodulating properties. This study aimed at quantifying the effects of OKG on muscle force, body composition, and immune function in outpatients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and presenting weight loss. METHODS Forty-six HIV(+) patients were included in a double-blind, prospective, randomized, controlled trial for 12 wk (10 g/d of OKG or isonitrogenous placebo and nutritional counseling). Podometry, handgrip strength, step test, triceps skinfold thickness, 50-kHz bioelectrical impedance, 3-d diet record, CD4 cell count, HIV-1 RNA concentration (viral load), and gastrointestinal symptoms were assessed at 0, 4, 8, and 12 wk. RESULTS At baseline, patients (OKG, n = 22; placebo, n = 24) has similar CD4 counts (338 +/- 172 and 310 +/- 136 cells/mL), viral load (3.6 +/- 1.3 and 3.5 +/- 1.3 log(10) copies/mL), body mass index (20.0 +/- 2.4 and 20.6 +/- 3.0 kg/m(2)), weight loss (9.0 +/- 3.12 and 9.4 +/- 3.0 kg), and food intake (2509 +/- 962 and 2610 +/- 808 kcal/d). Twenty-nine patients completed the protocol. Both groups increased their body mass index (P = 0.02 versus baseline) and triceps skinfold thickness (P < 0.01 versus baseline). They showed a similar positive correlation between handgrip strength and fat-free mass. Frequency of gastrointestinal symptoms increased in the OKG group (86% versus 54% in the placebo group, P = 0.025). No other differences were observed between groups. CONCLUSIONS All patients increased their body mass index and triceps skinfold thickness due to food supplementation and diet counseling. Oral OKG failed to improve nutritional, functional, or immunologic status in these weight-losing HIV(+) patients and had important gastrointestinal side effects.

Abstract
There have been substantial changes in the nutritional management of many diseases in the last 20 years, which have been accompanied by a growing recognition of its importance. Many of the changes in clinical nutrition have been associated with the introduction of standards, clinical audit and the implementation of evidence-based practice, which has led to a re-evaluation of some established dietary interventions using a hierarchy-of-evidence approach. Although there are few randomised controlled trials on which to base such work, the examination of other, often less-robust, evidence has led to some traditional dietary interventions being modified. Examples in gastroenterology include the use of low-fat diets in gall bladder disease and the restriction of protein in hepatic encephalopathy, where the current evidence suggests that neither should be used routinely in clinical practice. Where therapeutic dietary restrictions are required, as with low-Na diets in ascites, there is very little information on how these restrictions influence total nutrient intake and, if intake is impaired, how the detrimental effects of an inadequate intake should be balanced with the therapeutic effects of restriction. Studies are required to ensure that nutritional interventions are not only effective but also free from undesirable side effects. The mode and timing of the delivery of nutritional support has also been re-evaluated and the benefits of early enteral feeding have been recognised. The delivery of dietary advice is a new area that is being considered, with practitioners in clinical nutrition using behaviour-change skills to facilitate optimum nutrition rather than simply providing patients with advice. For such developments to continue in clinical nutrition it is essential that all practice should be systematically evaluated and, where necessary, modified in the light of sound current research findings, and that gaps in our present knowledge base are identified and addressed.
