“…JIA patients tend to present body composition and growth impairment due to disease activity, medication, reduced physical activity, and/or malnutrition [ 1 , 8 , 15 ]. Growth impairment is common among JIA patients, ranging from retarded growth to local acceleration of growth in the body part affected, associated with increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1β-IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α-TNF-α, and interleukin-6-IL-6) [ 16 ].…”

“…A cross-sectional study conducted with Moroccan JIA patients (n = 33) evaluated the relationship between macronutrient intake (using 7-day 24-hour recall), body composition, and bone mineral content (using DXA total body measurements) [ 15 ]. The study showed a positive correlation between carbohydrate intake and lean body mass, but dietary intake did not influence fat mass and bone mineral content [ 15 ].…”

There is evidence that nutritional impairment can complicate juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). It is also recognized that the JIA drug treatment may affect the nutritional aspects of patients. It is crucial to understand the impacts that nutritional aspects can have on a patient’s treatment, health, and life. Therefore, this review explores how nutrition influences juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Dietary aspects play essential roles in JIA patients’ growth, body mass index (BMI), bone mineral density (BMD), inflammation, and recovery. Suboptimal nutrition seems to adversely affect the long-term outcome of JIA patients. Nutritional deficiency potentially affects JIA patients’ general wellbeing and disease control and contributes to growth, inflammation, BMI, and BMD disturbances. It was also possible to verify that the correct status of nutrients helps the body recover and reduce inflammation in JIA patients, since nutritional status and nutrients play an important role in regulating immune function. Studies are diverse, and most analyze the effects of a single nutrient on JIA. Moreover, the diet and nutrition impacts are difficult to interpret in the pediatric population due to family influence, dietary regulation, and data collection in children/adolescents. Despite the lack of standardization among studies, the potential benefits of a healthy diet on short- and long-term health and wellbeing in JIA patients are noteworthy.

“…Останніми роками досягнуто значних успіхів у вивченні особливостей їх патогенезу та клінічного перебігу, розширилися діагностичні й лікувальні можливості в сфері дитячої ревматології. Однак, незважаючи на це, лікування РХ залишається далеко не завжди ефективним [1]. Хронічний перебіг захворювань, як і лікарські засоби, що використовуються як базисні препарати, мають цілу низку побічних ефектів, які сукупно призводять до серйозних порушень в організмі, затримки росту, статевого розвитку, а нерідкодо тяжких необоротних нутритивних розладів, які, в свою чергу, можуть обумовлювати прогноз і наслідки…”

Background. Analyzing modern medical literature, it can be noted that in pediatric rheumatology, insufficient attention is paid to assessing the trophological status of sick children. Purpose: to investigate the nutritional status of children with various nosological forms of rheumatic diseases (RD). Materials and methods. The nutritional status of 35 children with RD was investigated, of which 5 patients had systemic variant of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), 13 patients had articular form of JIA, 4 patients had systemic lupus erythematosus, 3 patients had mixed connective tissue disease (Sharp’s syndrome), 6 children had juvenile systemic scleroderma, 4 patients had juvenile dermatomyositis. All patients underwent a generally accepted comprehensive clinical, laboratory and instrumental examination. To assess the trophological status, the body mass index and the blood serum leptin were determined by the enzyme immunoassay and the trophological status coefficient was calculated. Results. The results of the conducted studies indicate that trophological insufficiency of varying degrees manifested in 78.5 % of children with RD in a decrease in body weight, depletion of muscle mass, adipose tissue, changes in the skin and its appendages, mucous membranes, organs of vision, oral cavity, cardiovascular system. The most pronounced trophological insufficiency was found in children with systemic JIA, with juvenile scleroderma and dermatomyositis.
