    الوصف: Background and Aim: In our previous study, we observed that a high dietary cation and anion difference (DCAD) of 40 mEq/kg dry matter (DM) in the diets of lactating dairy goats increased heat dissipation. In the present study, we believe that the level of DCAD fed to non-lactating and non-pregnant goats was twice as high as that fed to lactating goats in our previous study. This increase could have resulted in a greater water balance due to increased intake of water and unchanged urinary excretion. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the behavioral and heat dissipation effects of a dietary shift from low to high DCAD levels in dairy goats under tropical conditions. Materials and Methods: Seven non-lactating and non-pregnant crossbred goats were used in this study. All animals were initially fed a low DCAD (15 mEq/100 g DM) diet from days 0-6 and then switched to a high DCAD (89 mEq/100 g DM) diet from day 7 (high DCAD-7) to day 18 (high DCAD-18). Results: The results revealed that a high DCAD increased DM intake from days 13-18 (p < 0.05). The larger daily meal size associated with the high DCAD-18 group was due to increased daytime meal sizes, not nighttime when compared to the low DCAD group. Dietary cation and anion difference supplementation did not affect daily water intake; however, drinking patterns differed between the low DCAD group and the high DCAD-7 group from 07:00 to 09:00 and during nighttime. Similarly, daily urine volume was unaffected by DCAD supplementation, but urinary patterns differed between the low DCAD and high DCAD-18 groups. The daily water balance remained unchanged across all treatments, yet, a higher morning water balance was observed in the high DCAD group. The high DCAD diet led to an increase in respiration rate and rectal temperature compared to the low DCAD diet. Conclusion: The observed eating, drinking, and urinary patterns collectively suggested that high DCAD supplementation mitigates the effects of heat stress in non-lactating goats fed at high ambient temperatures.

    الوصف: BackgroundPatients suffering from psychiatric disorders face many difficulties due to their condition, medications and lifestyle. Oral health and nutrition may be affected, further complicating their lives. Our aim was to provide in-depth information on oral health and nutritional factors in a small group of patients in short-term psychiatric ward.MethodsTwenty-three patients (mean age 36, average medications five) were recruited during short-term hospitalization in a psychiatric ward. Inclusion criteria: anxiety, psychosis and/or depression, and use of at least one antidepressant or anxiolytic/antipsychotic drug with xerostomia as a known side effect. Subjective oral dryness was evaluated using the Shortened Xerostomia Inventory (SXI). Oral examination included Clinical Oral Dryness Score (CODS), secretion of unstimulated (UWS) and stimulated whole saliva (SWS), and evaluation of dental, gingival, and periodontal status. Self-reported complaints of oral disorders were recorded. The Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) was used to explore oral health-related quality of life. Nutritional status was assessed using the Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment Short Form (PG-SGA-SF), and diet quality was assessed using the Mediterranean diet score (KIDMED).ResultsCompared to healthy controls, the patients had significantly higher SXI scores and CODS, and SWS secretion was lower. Complaints of dysgeusia and halitosis were significantly more frequent among patients. Gingivitis was more common in patients. OHIP-14 scores were much higher in the patients, and they reported significantly poorer oral and general health. Most patients lacked a regular meal pattern. Very low diet quality was observed in five patients, while improvements were needed in twelve. “Dry mouth” and “No appetite, just did not feel like eating” were the most common symptoms preventing patients from eating enough. The PG-SGA-SF symptoms component score showed a strong negative correlation with self-reported oral health, and a strong positive correlation with OHIP-14.ConclusionThis relatively small group of patients in short-term psychiatric ward had both reduced oral health and poor oral health-related quality of life. Furthermore, their nutritional intake was affected by their oral health problems. Although larger groups need to be studied, these findings indicate that oral health and nutrition should be evaluated and adjusted in these patients to improve their overall care.

    الوصف: Eating situations are crucial for understanding and changing eating behavior. While research on individual situational dimensions exists, little is known about eating situations as a whole. This study aimed to fill this gap by identifying eating situations as combinations of multiple situational dimensions and describing how stable individuals eat in those situations. In a five-day online diary study, 230 participants reported a total of 2461 meals and described the corresponding eating situation using predefined situational dimensions. Divisive hierarchical cluster analyses were conducted separately for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, resulting in unique cluster solutions that characterized the most common eating situations. The most common breakfast situations were characterized by a combination of the dimensions social, affect, and hunger. The most common lunch and dinner situations were characterized by varying combinations of the dimensions social, affect, and activity. Based on the identified situations, a situational stability index was developed to describe how stable individuals eat in the same situations. The findings suggest high interindividual differences in situational stability, which were associated with socio-demographic characteristics like age or employment. This study enhances our understanding of the situational aspects of eating behavior while offering tools to describe eating situations and situational stability.

    الوصف (مترجم): Introdução: A doença pulmonar obstrutiva crónica (DPOC) representa um desafio importante na saúde pública global com uma elevada taxa de morbilidade e mortalidade. A fisiopatologia implica uma inflamação sistémica que leva ao aparecimento de alterações pulmonares e extrapulmonares e que podem ser perturbadas por variações no ritmo circadiano. A nutrição parece ser uma das variáveis que pode interferir no ciclo circadiano na qual se definiu como crononutrição. O padrão das refeições é um dos mecanismos da crononutrição que pode ser usado como uma estratégia dietética. Objetivo: Determinar se o padrão das refeições, o volume e o peso total dos alimentos se relacionam com os parâmetros antropométricos e sintomatologia respiratória em doentes com DPOC. Métodos: O estudo foi transversal analítico. Foram recolhidos dados sociodemográficos e clínicos. Foram realizadas correlações no padrão da ingestão alimentar com os parâmetros antropométricos e a sintomatologia respiratória. Resultados: Foram recrutados no total 18 participantes (16 do sexo masculino, 68,7 ±7,2 anos, 41,6 ±20,9 FEV1% previsto). A maioria dos participantes referiu que o número de refeições foi entre 3-4 por dia (n=14, 77,8%) e o intervalo de tempo entre cada refeição foi entre 3-4h (n=15, 83,3%). Metade dos participantes apresentou um índice de massa corporal dentro do intervalo da normalidade (25,4kg/m2 ±4,7) e a massa gorda (29,2% ±8,3) e o perímetro abdominal (94,7cm ±20,0) estavam acima dos valores de referência. O volume das porções alimentares teve uma correlação moderada positiva com a sintomatologia respiratória (Dispneia: rho=0,501; Fadiga: rho=0,499; CAT: rho=0,471; p<0,05). Não foram observadas outras correlações significativas (p>0,05). Conclusão: Os doentes com DPOC que consomem uma maior quantidade de alimentos com alto volume apresentam uma maior perceção de sintomas respiratórios. São necessários mais estudos para confirmar esta relação entre o padrão da ingestão alimentar nos parâmetros antropométricos e na sintomatologia respiratória em doentes com DPOC.
    Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) represents an important global public health challenge with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. The pathophysiology implies a systemic inflammation that leads to the appearance of pulmonary and extrapulmonary changes that can be disturbed by variations in the circadian rhythm. Nutrition seems to be one of the variables that can interfere with the circadian cycle in which chrononutrition was defined. Meal pattern is one of the mechanisms of chrononutrition that can be used as a dietary strategy. Objective: To determine whether the pattern of meals, the volume, and the total weight of food are related to anthropometric parameters and respiratory symptoms in patients with COPD. Methods: The study was cross-sectional and analytical. Sociodemographic and clinical data were collected. Correlations were made in the pattern of food intake with anthropometric parameters and respiratory symptoms. Results: A total of 18 participants were recruited (16 males, 68,7 ±7,2 years, 41,6 ±20,9 FEV1% predicted). Most participants reported that the number of meals was between 3-4 per day (n=14, 77,8%) and the time interval between each meal was between 3-4 hours (n=15, 83,3%). Half of the participants had a body mass index within the normal range (25,4kg/m 2 ±4,7) and fat mass (29,2% ±8,3) and waist circumference (94,7cm ±20,0) were above the reference values. The volume of food portions had a moderate positive correlation with the respiratory symptoms (Dyspnea: rho=0,501; Fatigue: rho=0,499; CAT: rho=0,471; p<0,05). No other significant correlations were observed (p>0,05). Conclusion: Patients with COPD who consume a greater amount of high-volume foods have a greater perception of respiratory symptoms. Further studies are needed to confirm this relationship between the pattern of food intake in the anthropometric parameters and respiratory symptoms in patients with COPD.

    الوصف: The impact of cyclic heat stress (CHS) and turning the lights on and off on pig feeding behavior (FB) was investigated. The FB of 90 gilts was recorded in real-time under two ambient temperatures (AT): thermoneutrality (TN, 22 °C) or CHS (22/35 °C). The day was divided into four periods: PI (06–08 h); PII (08–18 h); PIII (18–20 h); and PIV (20–06 h). Automatic and Intelligent Precision Feeders recorded each feed event for each pig. An estimated meal criterion (49 min) was used to calculate the FB variables. Feed behavior in both ATs followed a circadian pattern. The CHS reduced the feed intake by 6.9%. The pigs prioritized feed intake during the coolest hours of the day; however, nocturnal cooling did not allow the pigs to compensate for the reduced meal size due to CHS. The highest meal size and most of the meals were observed during the lighting-on period. The pigs reduced their interval between meals during PII and PIII. The lighting program increased the meal size when the lights were switched on and reduced the meal size when the lights were switched off. Thus, the dynamics of the FB were largely influenced by AT, whereas the meal size was affected by the lighting program.

    الوصف: In a cross-sectional analysis of a population-based cohort (United Kingdom, N = 21,318, 1993-1998), we studied how associations between meal patterns and non-fasting triglyceride and glucose concentrations were influenced by the hour of day at which the blood sample was collected to ascertain face validity of reported meal patterns, as well as the influence of reporting bias (assessed using formula of energy expenditure) on this association. Meal size (i.e., reported energy content), mealtime and meal frequency were reported using pre-structured 7-day diet diaries. In ANCOVA, sex-specific means of biomarker concentrations were calculated by hour of blood sample collection for quartiles of reported energy intake at breakfast, lunch and dinner (meal size). Significant interactions were observed between breakfast size, sampling time and triglyceride concentrations and between lunch size, sampling time and triglyceride, as well as glucose concentrations. Those skipping breakfast had the lowest triglyceride concentrations in the morning and those skipping lunch had the lowest triglyceride and glucose concentrations in the afternoon, especially among acceptable energy reporters. Eating and drinking occasion frequency was weakly associated with glucose concentrations in women and positively associated with triglyceride concentrations in both sexes; stronger associations were observed for larger vs. smaller meals and among acceptable energy reporters. Associations between meal patterns and concentration biomarkers can be observed when accounting for diurnal variation and underreporting. These findings support the use of 7-day diet diaries for studying associations between meal patterns and health.

    الوصف: High-protein diet (HPD) curtails obesity and/or fat mass, but it is unknown whether it reverses neuroinflammation or alters glucose levels, CCK sensitivity, and gut microbiome in rats fed a Western diet (WD)-induced obesity (DIO). Male rats fed a WD (high fat and sugar) for 12 wk were switched to a HPD for 6 wk. Body composition, food intake, meal pattern, sensitivity to intraperitoneal CCK-8S, blood glucose, brain signaling, and cecal microbiota were assessed. When compared with a normal diet, WD increased body weight (9.3%) and fat mass (73.4%). CCK-8S (1.8 or 5.2 nmol/kg) did not alter food intake and meal pattern in DIO rats. Switching to a HPD for 6 wk reduced fat mass (15.7%) with a nonsignificantly reduced body weight gain, normalized blood glucose, and decreased feeding after CCK-8S. DIO rats on the WD or switched to a HPD showed comparable microbial diversity. However, in HPD versus WD rats, there was enrichment of 114 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and depletion of 188 OTUs. Of those, Akkermansia muciniphila (enriched on a HPD), an unclassified Clostridiales, a member of the RF39 order, and a Phascolarctobacterium were significantly associated with fat mass. The WD increased cytokine expression in the hypothalamus and dorsal medulla that was unchanged by switching to HPD. These data indicate that HPD reduces body fat and restores glucose homeostasis and CCK sensitivity, while not modifying brain inflammation. In addition, expansion of cecal Akkermansia muciniphila correlated to fat mass loss may represent a potential peripheral mechanism of HPD beneficial effects.

    الوصف: Introduction: While the vast majority of research investigating the role of ghrelin or its receptor, GHS-R1a, in growth, feeding, and metabolism has been conducted in male rodents, very little is known about sex differences in this system. Furthermore, the role of GHS-R1a signaling in the control of pulsatile GH secretion and its link with growth or metabolic parameters has never been characterized.Methods: We assessed the sex-specific contribution of GHS-R1a signaling in the activity of the GH/IGF-1 axis, metabolic parameters, and feeding behavior in adolescent (5-6 weeks old) or adult (10-19 weeks old) GHS-R KO (Ghsr-/-) and WT (Ghsr+/+) male and female mice.Results: Adult Ghsr-/- male and female mice displayed deficits in weight and linear growth that were correlated with reduced GH pituitary contents in males only. GHS-R1a deletion was associated with reduced meal frequency and increased meal intervals, as well as reduced hypothalamic GHRH and NPY mRNA in males, not females. In adult, GH release from Ghsr-/- mice pituitary explants ex vivo was reduced independently of the sex. However, in vivo pulsatile GH secretion decreased in adult but not adolescent Ghsr-/- females, while in males, GHS-R1a deletion was associated with reduction in pulsatile GH secretion during adolescence exclusively. In males, linear growth did not correlate with pulsatile GH secretion, but rather with ApEn, a measure that reflects irregularity of the rhythmic secretion. Fat mass, plasma leptin concentrations, or ambulatory activity did not predict differences in GH secretion.Discussion/conclusion: These results point to a sex-dependent dimorphic effect of GHS-R1a signaling to modulate pulsatile GH secretion and meal pattern in mice with different compensatory mechanisms occurring in the hypothalamus of adult males and females after GHS-R1a deletion. Altogether, we show that GHS-R1a signaling plays a more critical role in the regulation of pulsatile GH secretion during adolescence in males and adulthood in females. ; 112 ; 3
