Total and segmental phase angle in a cohort of hospitalised patients with covid-19: mortality prediction and changes throughout hospitalisation
This study aimed to identify the total PhA cut-off point associated with mortality risk and changes in body composition within a week of hospitalisation in non-critical hospitalised patients with COVID-19. A cohort study was conducted in which patients underwent a complete nutritional assessment upon admission and after seven days, if possible, and they were followed up until hospital discharge or death. A receiver operating characteristic curve was constructed to determine the PhA cut-off point, and the Kaplan-Meier estimator was used to determine survival analysis. Segmental and complete body compositions on admission an...

Preventive effects of caffeine on nicotine plus high-fat diet-induced hepatic steatosis and gain weight: A possible explanation for why obese smokers with high coffee consumption tend to be leaner
Br J Nutr. 2023 Dec 27:1-25. doi: 10.1017/S0007114523002969. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent liver disorder, affecting approximately 25% of the population. Coffee-drinking obese smokers exhibit lower body weights and decreased NAFLD rates, but the reasons behind this remain unclear. Additionally, the effect of nicotine, the main component of tobacco, on the development of NAFLD is still controversial. Our study aimed to explore the possible reasons that drinking coffee could alleviate NAFLD and gain weight, and identify the real role of nicotine in NAFLD of obese smoke...

Association between Dietary Antioxidants intake and the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in a Prospective Cohort Study: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
Br J Nutr. 2023 Dec 20:1-24. doi: 10.1017/S0007114523002854. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe present prospective cohort study aimed to determine whether dietary antioxidants were associated with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Another objective was to find out whether such associations could be modified by the body mass index (BMI) status. A total of 2188 Tehranian adults aged 21-84 years, free of T2DM with the validated Food Frequency Questionnaire was entered in the study. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models adjusting for confounders were used to assess the association between dietary antioxidants a...

< em > Bacillus subtilis < /em > and < em > Enterococcus faecium < /em > co-fermented feed alters antioxidant capacity, muscle fiber characteristics, and lipid profiles of finishing pigs
This study aimed to assess how Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium co-fermented feed (FF) affects the antioxidant capacity, muscle fiber types, and muscle lipid profiles of finishing pigs. In this study, a total of 144 Duroc × Berkshire × Jiaxing Black finishing pigs were randomly assigned into 3 groups with 4 replicates (12 pigs per replication). The three treatments were a basal diet (0% FF), basal diet + 5% FF, and basal diet + 10% FF, respectively. The experiment lasted 38 days after 4 days of acclimation. The study revealed that 10% FF significantly increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and cat...

Reevaluation of the Protein Requirement in Chinese Elderly Adults without Sarcopenia with the Indicator Amino Acid Oxidation Technique
Br J Nutr. 2023 Dec 11:1-22. doi: 10.1017/S0007114523002611. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIt is now generally believed that elderly may have slightly higher dietary protein requirements than those of the young-middle-aged adults. We have previously conducted related studies by the indicator amino acid oxidation (IAAO) technique, but more research data are needed to revise the protein requirements of the elderly. The main objective was to reevaluate the dietary protein requirements of healthy Chinese adults (65-80y) without sarcopenia by using the IAAO technique. Nine healthy adult men and seven healthy adult women partici...

Smartphone survey data reveals the timecourse of changes in mood outcomes following vitamin C or kiwifruit intervention in adults with low vitamin C
This study utilised intensive longitudinal smartphone surveys from a three-armed placebo-controlled trial to determine mood-related changes following supplementation with vitamin C (250 mg tablet/day), kiwifruit (2 SunGold™ kiwifruit/day), or a placebo (1 tablet/day). Secondary data was analysed from the KiwiC for Vitality trial (Trial ID: ACTRN12617001031358). Adults (n = 155, 63% female, aged 18-35) with low plasma vitamin C (<40 μmol/L) completed a 14-day lead-in, 28-day intervention, and 14-day washout. Participants self-reported vitality (SF-36), mood (POMS Total Mood Disturbance), flourishing (Flourishing Scale...
