Judith Charbit, Jean Sébastien Vidal, Olivier Hanon
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Dementia is a growing concern and underscores the urgent need for effective preventive measures targeting modifiable risk factors. Nutrition is a key player in the onset and progression of inflammation and cognitive decline. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the effects of different dietary patterns, vitamins and nutrients for preventing cognitive decline, mainly among healthy individuals and those with mild cognitive impairment. RECENT FINDINGS: The Mediterranean diet, omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and B vitamins are the most investigated, with evidence supporting protection against cognitive decline among older adults varying across studies...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Cancer patients may have a variety of disorders associated with systemic inflammation caused by disease progression. Consequently, we have protein hypercatabolism. In view of this, protein and amino acid adequacy should be considered in relation to nutritional behavior. Therefore, this review aims to evaluate the influence of protein and amino acids in the nutritional therapy of cancer. RECENT FINDINGS: Diets with adequate protein levels appear to be beneficial in the treatment of cancer; guidelines suggest consumption of greater than 1...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Nicolaas E P Deutz, Krista L Haines, Paul E Wischmeier, Mariëlle P K J Engelen
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Stable isotope methods have been used for many years to assess whole body protein and amino acid kinetics in critically ill patients. In recent years, new isotope approaches and tracer insights have been developed. The tracer pulse approach has some advantages above the established primed-continuous tracer infusion approach because of the high amount of metabolic information obtained, easy applicability, and low tracer costs. Effects of disease severity and sex on amino acid kinetics in ICU patients will also be addressed...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Karam M Kostner, Gerhard M Kostner
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Lp(a) is one of the most atherogenic lipoproteins, and significant progress has been made to understand its pathophysiology over the last 20 years. There are now selective therapies in late-stage clinical trials to lower Lp(a). Yet there are many outstanding questions about Lp(a). This review outlines 10 of the most burning questions and tries to answer some of them. RECENT FINDINGS: Antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) treatment is currently the most advanced therapy to lower plasma Lp(a) by 60-80%...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Many studies using metabolomics have tried to unravel the metabolic signature of obesity and understand the pathophysiology of this complex and heterogeneous disease. Circulating levels of the amino acid glutamate have been consistently associated with obesity and more specifically with measurements of abdominal fat accumulation. The purpose of this narrative review is to highlight recent studies documenting this association. RECENT FINDINGS: Circulating glutamate concentrations have been positively correlated with measurements of central fat accumulation such as waist circumference and visceral adipose tissue area...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Micah T Long, Jacqueline M Kruser, Shane C Quinonez
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Urea cycle disorders (UCDs) cause elevations in ammonia which, when severe, cause irreversible neurologic injury. Most patients with UCDs are diagnosed as neonates, though mild UCDs can present later - even into adulthood - during windows of high physiologic stress, like critical illness. It is crucial for clinicians to understand when to screen for UCDs and appreciate how to manage these disorders in order to prevent devastating neurologic injury or death. RECENT FINDINGS: Hyperammonemia, particularly if severe, causes time- and concentration-dependent neurologic injury...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Emanuele Cereda, Nicola Veronese, Riccardo Caccialanza
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: We provided an updated overview of recent data on the value of nutritional therapy in the management of chronic wounds in older adults. RECENT FINDINGS: In the last years, advances in this area were limited, but new data suggest considering nutritional care (screening and assessment of malnutrition and nutritional interventions) also in patients with chronic wounds other than pressure ulcers, namely venous leg and diabetic foot ulcers, as in these patients, nutritional derangements can be present despite overweight/obesity and their management is beneficial...

#8
JOURNAL ARTICLE
Nirupama Shivakumar, Paul Kelly
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Children with linear growth faltering refractory to nutritional management show evidence of environmental enteropathy, which may compromise nutrient availability. Protein could be particularly affected, due to the possibility of sub-optimal digestibility and/or increase in requirement for immune response. This increase in protein requirement along with poor intake could potentially lead to increased breakdown of body protein sources and in turn a depleted protein state...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Nathan Phillips, Stuart R Gray, Emilie Combet, Oliver C Witard
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review uses the hierarchy of evidence as a framework to critically evaluate the effect of long chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCn-3 PUFA) ingestion alone, or as an adjunctive intervention to resistance training, on muscle health-related outcomes in healthy and clinical older adult populations. RECENT FINDINGS: Systematic reviews and meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials consistently report small, but clinically-relevant, effects of LCn-3 PUFA ingestion on strength outcomes, whereas mixed findings have been reported regarding changes in muscle mass and physical function...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Nutritional interventions using protein and amino acids in obesity are popular therapeutical strategies to limit obesity development. However, the effects of dietary protein intake and amino acid metabolic alterations involved in obesity pathophysiology have not been completely unravelled. Significant recent studies have brought to light new findings in these areas, which are the primary focus of this review. RECENT FINDINGS: We describe the effects of protein intake on weight regain prevention, the influence on gut microbiota, the response to low-protein highly processed foods, and the contrasting impacts of a high-protein diet on adults and children...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Arvind Veluvali, Michael Snyder
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) refers to a group of risk factors, which increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes (T2D), and other chronic diseases. Dietary fiber has been shown to mitigate many of the effects of various risk factors associated with MetS. Our review summarizes the recent findings on the association between dietary fiber deficiency and MetS. RECENT FINDINGS: A number of studies have shown that dietary fiber deficiency is associated with an increased risk of MetS...

REVIEW
Diana R Mager, Amber Hager, Susan Gilmour
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Highlight the controversies and challenges associated with a sarcopenia diagnosis in infants and children and the potential physiological mechanisms contributing to this disorder. RECENT FINDINGS: Sarcopenia has been recently identified in infants and children with chronic diseases such as liver, cardiac, gastrointestinal, cancer and organ transplant recipients. However, there is no consensus regarding the definition of pediatric sarcopenia. Different sarcopenic phenotypes (sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity) have been identified in healthy children and children with chronic disease...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Tom Anthonius Hubertus Janssen, Derrick W Van Every, Stuart M Phillips
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Very low-calorie diets (VLCD) are used as a weight loss intervention, but concerns have been raised about their potential negative impact on lean mass. Here, we review the available evidence regarding the effects of VLCD on lean mass and explore their utility and strategies to mitigate reductions in skeletal muscle. RECENT FINDINGS: We observed that VLCD, despite their effects on lean mass, may be suitable in certain populations but have a risk in reducing lean mass...
