“…The incidence of malnutrition is high in hospitalized patients, with a range of 30-50% according to the population group and time of nutritional assessment (Jensen et al, 1982;Mandelbaum et al, 1988;Celaya, 1992;Klein et al, 1996;Bruun et al, 1999;Correia et al, 2003). In various clinical and surgical populations, these nutritional deficiencies have been related with increased morbidity and mortality rates (Cannon et al, 1944;Mandelbaum et al, 1988).…”

Objective: The aim of the study is to investigate the evolution of nutritional parameters after major spinal surgery in patients with idiopathic scoliosis. Methods: This retrospective study included 31 patients with a mean age of 18 y, diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis. The following variables were analyzed: demographic, surgical (type, number of fused segments, duration, and blood loss), nutritional assessment (proteins, albumin, prealbumin, transferrin, lymphocytes, and body mass index), and duration of hospitalization at different time points. Statistical analyses were performed with the SPSS 6.1 software. Results: Before surgery, nutritional status was normal in all patients. At 24-48 h after surgery, statistically significant decrease with respect to preoperative values was recorded for all the parameters studied: proteins (Po0.001), albumin (Po0.001), prealbumin (Po0.01), transferrin (Po0.001), and lymphocytes (Po0.001). Conclusion: Our results showed a significant postoperative decrease in the nutritional parameters analyzed in a previously wellnourished population considered to be at low risk for nutritional depletion.

“…U populaciji ambulantno-poliklinički liječenih starih osoba, laka i umjerena pothranjenost evidentirana je kod 31−58% bolesnika [17]. Brazilsko nacionalno istraživanje pokazalo je prisustvo malnutricije kod 48,1% bolesnika prilikom prijema u bolnicu ili domove za stara lica [18]. U dvije studije iz Engleske učestalost malnutricije kod hospitalizovanih bolesnika prilikom primanja u bolnicu iznosila je 20% i 40% [19].…”

Kratak sadržajStarenje stanovništva, a samim tim i povećanje očekivanog trajanja života su danas globalni fenomeni. U okviru poremećaja stanja uhranjenosti kod starih posebno treba obratiti pažnju na pothranjenost, odnosno proteinsko-energetski deficit, nutritivnu anemiju i gojaznost. Nutritivnа anemija kod starih najčešće je posljedica nedostatka gvožđa, folata i vitamina B12, a često je udružena sa infekcijom ili je posljedica nekog hroničnog oboljenja. Prеvаlеncа gојаznоsti imа stаlаn porаst i prеdstаvljа znаčајаn zdrаvstvеni prоblеm u vеćini industriјаlizоvаnih zеmаljа. Proces nutritivne njege mora da bude kontinuiran, a procjena nutritivnog statusa, otkrivanje faktora rizika za malnutriciju i pravovremena primjena odgovarajućeg liječenja doprinose smanjenju morbiditeta, mortaliteta, troškova liječenja i poboljšanju kvaliteta života starih osoba.

“…It must be emphasized that more than 90% of hospital patients are fed oral diets 12 , which should be sensorially attractive, nutritionally balanced and present food safety, which includes respecting current limits for contaminants. However there is a lacuna with respect to the mineral contents in oral hospital diets 13 , including those of the contaminants Pb and Cd.…”

NIVELES DE CADMIO Y PLOMO CONSUMIDOS POR PACIENTES QUE RECIBEN DIETAS HOSPITALARIAS ORALES ResumenIntroducción: Los niveles de cadmio (Cd) y plomo (Pb) en los alimentos deben ser controlados en función del riesgo para la salud.Objetivo: Evaluar los niveles de Cd y Pb en dietas hospitalarias orales y complemento alimentario oral (OFC) y sus ingestiones por pacientes, con estimativa del riesgo de exposición.Métodos: Los niveles de Cd y Pb se determinaron mediante ICP-OES en muestras de dietas regular, blanda, fluida, renal y OFC, recogidas 6 días non-consecutivos. Fueron analizados 14,3% de las dietas y OFC servidos.Resultados y Discusión: 163 pacientes participaron, con pesos y edades medias de 62,7 kg y 56,5 años, respectivamente, en su mayoría varones (59,5%). La media de Cd consumida fue mayor entre hombres alimentados con dietas regular y fluida y similar entre los sexos para la blanda. El consumo de Cd (máx. 21,2 µg/día) estaba por debajo de la ingesta provisional mensual tolerable (IPMT). El contenido medio de Pb ingerido fue similar entre sexos (máx. 199,49 µg/día). La dieta blanda mostró mayor contenido de Pb en septiembre/2010, mientras que las otras no variaron según la temporada. En septiembre/2010 y enero/2011, las dietas regular y blanda asociadas al OFC aportaron 207,50 y 210,50 µg/día de Pb, respectivamente.Conclusiones: La combinación de la dieta con OFC aumentó el riesgo de ingestión excesiva de Pb. La vulnerabilidad de los pacientes a una exposición excesiva podría ser mayor en función del agua y medicamentos. La ingestión de Cd calculada cumple el IPMT, pero el nivel de Pb y su ingestión representan riesgo para los pacientes. (Nutr Hosp. 2014;29:196-203 Conclusions: The combination of the diet with the OFC increased the risk of an excessive ingestion of Pb, and the vulnerability of the patients to an excessive exposition to Pb could be greater due to water and medications. It was concluded that whereas the calculated ingestion of Cd conformed to the PTMI, the Pb level and ingestion represented a risk to the health of the patients.
