Evaluation of different screening tools as the first step of the GLIM framework: A cross-sectional study of Chinese cancer patients in an outpatient setting
CONCLUSION: Using PG-SGA as the standard, the GLIM framework using PG-SGA SF as the screening tool has good accordance with the PG-SGA regardless of severity grading. PG-SGA SF can be used as a valid screening tool in the GLIM framework.PMID:38161144 | DOI:10.1002/ncp.11103 (Source: Nutrition in Clinical Practice)

Improving anthropometric measurements in hospitalized children: A quality-improvement project
CONCLUSION: Documentation of anthropometrics on admission substantially improved after establishing multidisciplinary champion teams. Goal rate (80%) was achieved within 26 months for all anthropometrics in the surgical unit and for weight in the cardiac unit. Improved documentation rates led to significant increase in identification of patients at malnutrition (undernutrition) risk.PMID:38153693 | DOI:10.1002/ncp.11112 (Source: Nutrition in Clinical Practice)

The association between sarcopenia, defined by a simplified screening tool, and long-term outcomes
CONCLUSION: The simplified sarcopenia screening tool was associated with increased rates of moderate to severe disability 3 months postdischarge and higher 1-year mortality rates compared with nonsarcopenic patients.PMID:38146781 | DOI:10.1002/ncp.11109 (Source: Nutrition in Clinical Practice)

Cannabis use in the United States and its impact on gastrointestinal health
Nutr Clin Pract. 2023 Dec 23. doi: 10.1002/ncp.11111. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn recent years, the legalization and social acceptability of cannabis use have increased in the United States. Concurrently, the prevalence of cannabis use has continued to rise, and cannabis products have diversified. There are growing concerns regarding the health effects of regular and high-potency cannabis use, and new research has shed light on its potentially negative effects. Here, we review evidence of the gastrointestinal (GI) effects of cannabis and cannabinoids. Dysregulation of the endocannabinoid system might contribute to var...

Measuring body composition in pediatric patients with complex diagnoses: Acceptability, practicality, and validation of different techniques
CONCLUSION: Body composition by a range of techniques is acceptable, practical, and reliable in a diverse group of children with complex diagnoses. BIA seems a good alternative to DXA for assessing fat-free mass, triceps SFT, and BMI for fat mass but should be used with care as it could overestimate total fat mass in individuals.PMID:38142311 | DOI:10.1002/ncp.11098 (Source: Nutrition in Clinical Practice)
