Nutritional Intake after Liver Transplant: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Nutrients 2023; 15:2487.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease and its concurrent risk factors are prevalent after liver transplant (LT). Most of these risk factors are modifiable by diet. We aimed to synthesise the literature reporting the nutritional intake of liver transplant recipients (LTR) and the potential determinants of intake. We performed a systematic review and meta-analyses of studies published up until July 2021 reporting the nutritional intake of LTR. The pooled daily mean intakes were recorded as 1998 (95% CI 1889, 2108) kcal, 17 (17, 18)% energy from protein, 49 (48, 51)% energy from carbohydrates, 34 (33, 35)% energy from total fat, 10 (7, 13)% energy from saturated fat, and 20 (18, 21) g of fibre. The average fruit and vegetable intake ranged from 105 to 418 g/day. The length of time post-LT and the age and sex of the cohorts, as well as the continent and year of publication of each study, were sources of heterogeneity. Nine studies investigated the potential determinants of intake, time post-LT, gender and immunosuppression medication, with inconclusive results. Energy and protein requirements were not met in the first month post-transplant. After this point, energy intake was significantly higher and remained stable over time, with a high fat intake and low intake of fibre, fruits and vegetables. This suggests that LTR consume a high-energy, low-quality diet in the long term and do not adhere to the dietary guidelines for cardiovascular disease prevention.

Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis in patients on the waiting list for liver transplant: Associated factors and prognostic effects. Nutrition 2021; 94:111528. [PMID: 34891107 DOI: 10.1016/j.nut.2021.111528] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2021] [Revised: 09/30/2021] [Accepted: 10/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess patients on the waiting list for liver transplant (LTx) according to bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA), as well as to verify the association between the placement of the vectors on the graph with clinical outcomes and identify the predictors to vector placement in quadrant 4 (Q4; indicating more hydration and less cellularity). METHODS This was a retrospective observational study including 129 patients ≥20 y of age awaiting LTx. Patients' nutritional status was assessed by using different tools, including single-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis and the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA). Clinical data were registered. The BIVA was evaluated by comparing the individual vectors plotted for all patients to the tolerance ellipses of 50%, 75%, and 95% of the reference healthy population. The quadrant of the vector for each patient was registered. RESULTS The majority of the vectors were placed in Q1 (n = 54; 41.9%) and Q4 (n = 39; 30.2%). The presence of ascites or edema (hazard ratio [HR], 2.43; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.15-5.12; P = 0.019) and the BIVA vector placed in Q4 in any ellipse (HR, 2.10; 95% CI, 1.07-4.09; P = 0.029) were independent predictors for mortality on the waiting list or ≤1 y after LTx. BIVA was not associated with longer hospital length of stay. The predictors of vector placement in Q4 were higher age, malnutrition according to SGA, and presence of ascites or edema. CONCLUSION Patients on the waiting list for LTx with BIVA vectors placed in Q4, in the 50%, 75%, or 95% tolerance ellipses, presented a worse prognosis.

Obesity, dynapenia and high cardiovascular risk co-exist in post-liver transplant setting: results of a cross-sectional study. Clin Res Hepatol Gastroenterol 2019; 43:140-147. [PMID: 30301681 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinre.2018.09.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2018] [Revised: 08/13/2018] [Accepted: 09/07/2018] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of death in post-liver transplantation (LT). The aim of this study was to evaluate LT patients as to the carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and its association with nutritional status, dietary intake, metabolic profile and cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, adult patients with more than 12 months of post-transplant follow-up underwent clinical, laboratory, functional and nutritional evaluation by 3-day-diet-record, anthropometry and dynamometry. CIMT was evaluated by Doppler ultrasonography. RESULTS Sixty-nine post-LT patients [males 61%, median of age 59 (51-64) years were included; median time post-liver transplantation 2.8 (1.4-6.3) years]. High prevalence of malnutrition was found (45% of arm muscle area < p15 and 71% of handgrip strength < p30). Excess weight was present in 72% of patients, body mass index ≥ 30 kg/m2 in 35% and metabolic syndrome in 51%. Abnormal CIMT was found in 54% of the sample. Patients with abnormal CIMT presented higher cardiovascular risk Score, LDL cholesterol, higher prevalence of high-sensitive C-reactive protein ≥ 1 mg/L and higher intake of saturated and trans fatty acids (P < 0.05 for all). CONCLUSIONS Abnormal IMT was commonly found in LT patients presenting at the same time with overweight and dynapemia. These results were associated with higher LDL-cholesterol levels, high-sensitive C-reactive protein ≥ 1 mg/L and higher intake of saturated and trans fatty acids. Preventive measures, including dietary advice, are required for all post-liver transplantation patients to minimize cardiovascular risk.
