A nutrigenetic precision approach for the management of Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
&Aims: The Patatin-like phospholipase domain –containing 3 (PNPLA3) rs738409 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is one of the major genetic determinant of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and is strongly regulated by changes in energy balance and dietary factors. We aimed to investigate the association between the PNPLA3 rs738409 SNP, nutrient intake and NAFLD severity. (Source: Clinical Nutrition)

Medium-chain triglycerides and the impact on fat absorption, growth, nutritional status and clinical outcomes in children with cholestatic liver disease: a scoping review
Medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) supplementation is recommended in cholestatic liver disease, despite unclear evidence and no consensus on the ideal percentage of fat that should be MCT. The aim was to undertake a scoping review to identify the extent and type of evidence regarding how MCT supplementation, and percentage of MCT, affects fat absorption, growth, nutritional status and clinical outcomes (morbidity, mortality, transplant) in children with cholestatic liver disease.

Unintentional weight loss is reflected in worse one-year clinical outcomes among COPD outpatients
Unintended weight loss (UWL) is prevalent among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, little research has been done on UWL as an independent variable in terms of clinical outcome. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between BMI, UWL, and clinical outcome in terms of hospitalization, length of stay, exacerbations, mortality, and quality of life (QoL) within six months and one year in a hospital outpatient setting.

Association between dietary intake of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among hypertensive adults: results from NHANES 1999-2018
Hypertensive adults are at a higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (N3-PUFA) intake has been associated with cardiovascular benefits. However, few studies have specifically investigated whether dietary intake of N3-PUFA is associated with lower risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among hypertensive adults in the U.S..

Can a modified ketogenic diet be a nutritional strategy for patients with McArdle disease? Results from a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study
McArdle disease is caused by myophosphorylase deficiency leading to blocked glycogenolysis in skeletal muscle. Consequently, individuals with McArdle disease have intolerance to physical activity, muscle fatigue, and pain. These symptoms vary according to the availability of alternative fuels for muscle contraction. In theory, a modified ketogenic diet (mKD) can provide alternative fuels in the form of ketone bodies and potentially boost fat oxidation. (Source: Clinical Nutrition)
