    The Role of Nutritional and Dietary Habits in Etiology in Pediatric Vocal Fold Nodule
    (2022) Korkmaz, Muge Ozcelik; Tuzuner, Arzu
    Objectives. In pediatric pediatric vocal fold nodule (VFN) patients, different causes have been suggested in the development of the vocal cord nodule, including laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). It is known that the content of consumed foods, obesity, and other dietary behaviors are among the risk factors for the devel-opment of reflux. The aim of this study was to evaluate dietary and food consumption habits in pediatric VFN patients.Methods. This prospective-controlled study included 50 children with VFNs (age range 5-14 years) and 50 age-matched children without any voice disorders as a control group. BMI values of each participant were evaluated according to age-percentile range. The voice usage habits and personality structure of all the children were ques-tioned. All patients underwent laryngeal examination and voice analysis. The Turkish Pediatric Voice Handicap Index (t-PVHI) and Child Voice Handicap Index-10 (t-CVHI) were completed by patients or their parents. The examination findings of all patients were evaluated with the reflux finding score (RFS), and their complaints were questioned with the reflux symptom index (RSI). In addition, eating and drinking at night, fast eating and exces -sive food consumption habits and the frequency of consumption of packaged foods defined as junk food, carbon-ated beverage were questioned. The data obtained were compared statistically between the two groups.Results. There was no significant difference between the study and control groups in terms of age, gender distri-bution, median BMI value, voice usage habits, and personality structure. In the study group, t-PVHI, t-CVHI, jit-ter, schimmer values, the mean RFS, and RSI scores were significantly higher than those of the control group. The number of children with high consumption of junk food and carbonated drinks was higher in the study group. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of dietary habits.Conclusion. Food consumption habits may play a role in childhood voice problems in this population.

    Associations between nutritional factors and excessive daytime sleepiness in older patients with chronic kidney disease
    (2021) Heybeli, Cihan; Soysal, Pinar; Oktan, Mehmet Asi; Smith, Lee; Celik, Ali; Kazancioglu, Rumeyza; 0000-0001-7903-1106; 34448151; AHC-6473-2022
    Background Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is prevalent in not only older adults, but also patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and is associated with higher risks of morbidity and mortality. Aims The aim of the present study is to determine associations between EDS and nutritional status and serum nutrient levels in older patients with CKD. Methods This cross-sectional study included 367 patients (aged >= 65 years) with CKD (eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m(2) and/or > 30 mg/day of albuminuria for > 3 months). EDS was recorded using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (a score of >= 11). Malnutrition was diagnosed according to the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) tool (a score of < 17). Results The mean age was 81 +/- 7 years, and 248 (67%) were female. EDS was seen in 99 (26.9%) patients. Those with EDS had significantly lower MNA scores and more frequent malnutrition than those without EDS (p < 0.05). In multivariable analysis adjusted for age, sex, cerebrovascular disease, dementia, number of drugs, and number of urinations at night, and the Charlson Comorbidity Index the relationship between malnutrition and EDS persisted (OR 2.58, 95% CI 1.38-4.83, p = 0.003). There was no significant difference between the presence of EDS and serum levels or deficiencies of vitamin D, vitamin B-12, and folate (p > 0.05). Conclusions EDS is associated with malnutrition in older patients with CKD. Therefore, EDS and nutritional status should be evaluated together in clinical practice. However, future studies are needed to determine the direction of the association between malnutrition and EDS and to evaluate if dietary intervention can improve EDS.

    The Effect of Family Participation in Nutrition Education Intervention on the Nutritional Status of Preschool Age Children
    (2019) Aktac, Sule; Kiziltan, Gul; Avci, Suleyman
    To evaluate the effectiveness of family participation in nutrition education intervention on the nutritional status of preschool age children, a 10-week nutrition education program was implemented in 74 children in a public kindergarten. Children were assigned to one of three groups, namely the family participation group (FPG), the education group (EG), and the control group (CG). Interventions included school-based nutrition education, family nutrition education documents and family-child take-home activities and monthly meetings with families in the FPG, school-based nutrition education in the EG, and no intervention in the CG. Anthropometric measurements and a 3-day food record and food group consumption assessment were completed before and after intervention. Intervention led to positive changes in food availability, offering and consumption patterns in FPG and EG, with greater changes in FPG, along with lower obesity prevalence (p < 0.05). Our results show that family participation in a preschool nutrition education program can increase the effectiveness of nutrition education.

    Retarding chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression: a practical nutritional approach for non-dialysis CKD
    (2016) Sezer, Siren; Bellizzi, Vincenzo; Carrero, Jan Jesus; Chauveau, Philippe; Cozzolino, Mario; Cupisti, Adamasco; D'Alessandro, Claudia; De Nicola, Luca; Fiaccadori, Enrico; Johansson, Lina; Minutolo, Roberto; Molina, Pablo; Ter Wee, Pieter; Teta, Daniel; Wanner, Christoph; Calella, Patrizia; Fouque, Denis
    This is a case report on a patient with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) in whom several nutritional issues are briefly discussed from a practical point of view. The article is accompanied by an editorial published in this Journal in relation to the 2nd International Conference of the European Renal Nutrition working group at ERA-EDTA-" Retarding CKD progression: readily available through comprehensive nutritional management?"and focuses on several practical topics associated with the nutritional approach for the conservative treatment of non-dialysis CKD. The article is divided into 3 sections-basic nutritional assessment, nutritional targets, and nutritional follow-up in non-dialysis CKD-linked to 3 consecutive steps of the clinical follow-up of the patient and the related nutritional concerns and intervention. First visit: Baseline nutritional assessment and basic nutritional considerations in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) What nutritional assessment/monitoring for protein-energy wasting (PEW) should be employed? Is a body mass index (BMI) of 21 kg/m2 adequate? What phosphate target should be pursued? What are the nutritional habits in patients with incident CKD? What protein needs and amount of dietary protein should be pursued? Does the quality of protein matter? What amount of dietary salt should be employed? How should this be obtained? How should normal serum phosphate be achieved? What diet should be recommended? Is a vegetarian diet an option? Second visit: Major nutritional targets in non-dialysis CKD Consequences of unintentional weight loss What is the role of the renal dietitian in helping the patient adhere to a renal diet? Intermediate visits: Nutritional follow-up in non-dialysis CKD What treatment for calcium/parathyroid hormone (PTH) will affect CKD progression? Final visits: Would a dietary recall/intensive dietary education improve adherence with the diet? Would a very-low-protein diet (VLPD)/ketodiet be indicated for this patient?

    Mediterranean diet as the diet of choice for patients with chronic kidney disease
    (2018) Sezer, Siren; Chauveau, Philippe; Aparicio, Michel; Bellizzi, Vincenzo; Campbell, Katrina; Hong, Xu; Johansson, Lina; Kolko, Anne; Molina, Pablo; Wanner, Christoph; Ter Wee, Pieter M.; Teta, Daniel; Fouque, Denis; Carreo, Juan; 29106612
    Traditional dietary management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) focuses on the quantity within the diet of energy and protein, and the restriction of single micronutrients, with little mention of dietary quality. Dietary patterns that are more plant-based, lower in meat (including processed meat), sodium and refined sugar, and have a higher content of grains and fibres are now included in multiple clinical guidelines for chronic disease prevention. The Mediterranean diet (MD) has been associated with reduced cardiovascular disease incidence in both observational and interventional studies. A wealth of evidence links MD with other beneficial effects on chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity or cognitive health. This review examines each constituent of the classical MD and evaluates their suitability for the management of patients with CKD. We also evaluate the potential hyperkalaemia risk of increasing fruit and vegetable intake. Overall, a decrease in net endogenous acid production and increase in fibre may lead to a better control of metabolic acidosis. This, together with other putative favourable effects of MD on endothelial function, inflammation, lipid profile and blood pressure, provide mechanistic pathways to explain the observed reduced renal function decline and improved survival in CKD patients adhering to an MD.
