water is a crucial component of human health useful for various bodily functions. Despite its importance, previous research has largely overlooked hydration in Latin America, focusing instead on regions with greater access to a variety of food sources.

nutrition during the first two years of life is crucial for the physical, cognitive, and emotional development of children. This study aimed to: 1) associate maternal perception of hunger and satiety signals with the type of feeding; 2) associate maternal perception of hunger and satiety signals with the infant's weight status; and 3) determine the influence of feeding type on the infant's BMI-for-age.

patients with congenital heart disease are considered to be at high nutritional risk due to alterations in the metabolism of the underlying pathology and extracardiac factors. The STAMP (Screening Tool for the Assessment of Malnutrition in Paediatrics) is the only tool validated in our country in a pediatric population for nutritional screening.

malnutrition negatively impacts trauma prognosis, and this study aimed to evaluate the NRI as a prognostic factor alongside other variables such as comorbidities and the Barthel Index (BI).

this cross-sectional study, conducted on a convenience sample of 2197 Macedonian primary school children, aimed to examine how certain anthropometric indices (body mass index (BMI), muscle-fat ratio (MFR), hand grip strength-BMI ratio) are related to the physical fitness of individuals.

the purpose of this study was to assess the connection among ultra-processed food consumption and the likelihood of cardiovascular disease, with the intention of establishing a basis for future research.

the most common cause of hyponatraemia in hospital settings is the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). This study compares the efficacy and safety of urea versus fluid restriction in the treatment of hyponatraemia caused by SIADH.

body mass index (BMI) is used worldwide to track excess weight; however, it has limitations in predicting body fat percentage (BF%). Triponderal mass index (TMI) has been studied as an alternative indicator to predict BF%.

The concept of "disease related malnutrition" (DRM) is far from the concept of malnutrition classically diagnosed in public health, which is determined by socio-demographic factors. In 2008, the Spanish Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (SENPE) and the Spanish Society of Medical Documentation (SEDOM) published a consensus defining more precisely the types of malnutrition seen in hospitals and their corresponding coding. Changes in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) and the evolution of clinical information have made it necessary to revise and update this consensus in order to establish new criteria to guide the recording and coding of diagnoses of malnutrition in the field of hospital care, thus facilitating the work of both clinicians and coders and improving the visibility of DRE, by adapting from the clinical diagnoses of undernutrition based on the GLIM criteria (Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition) proposed by the scientific societies to the current codes proposed by ICD-10-ES. This document reflects the new consensus of the SENPE, SEEN and SEDOM societies, and refers to the coding of DRE, other nutritional diagnoses and medical nutritional treatment procedures, sets out the coding criteria and proposes suggestions to improve coding at the hospital level.

omentin-1 might present a potential role in metabolic syndrome (MS). The aim of our investigation was to evaluate the relationship between omentin-1 and nascent MS.

the prevalence of obesity is reaching a pandemic status. The SCALE trials showed that liraglutide 3 mg among people with obesity (PwO) was effective to reduce bodyweight and related complications. The fact that almost two-thirds of patients did not achieve the desired weight loss with the maximum dose of liraglutide made almost mandatory the development of other pharmacological options. The STEP 1-5 trials showed the effectiveness of semaglutide in reducing bodyweight in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the STEP 8 trial proved the superiority of semaglutide 2,4 mg/week versus liraglutide 3 mg/daily. We aimed to assess the effects of subcutaneous (s.c.) semaglutide 0.5 mg/weekly compared with s.c. liraglutide 3 mg/daily in PwO on anthropometric parameters in a real world-scenario for 3 months.

the Naples Prognostic Score is a novel scoring system designed to provide a comprehensive assessment of patients' inflammation and nutritional status.

we aimed to investigate the associations of body mass index (BMI) and oxygen saturation with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) grade in COPD patients.

nutritional screening tools assess factors like weight loss, BMI, food intake, and disease severity to determine a patient's nutritional risk and needed care. Plasma transthyretin is a practical measurement used to assess nutritional evolution due to its rapid response to food intake. This study examines the relationship between nutritional scores, transthyretin protein levels, and the possibility of death.

to investigate the clinical value of vitamin K testing in children with vitamin D deficiency rickets.

docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) play an important role in fetal growth and development. In Mexico, 76.8 % of women of reproductive age are overweight and obese, which is associated with the development of gestational complications. EPA and DHA fatty acids have an anti-inflammatory effect, reducing the risk of developing complications.

disordered eating behaviors (DEBs) and eating disorders (Eds) mainly occur in adolescence, but they currently already occur at an early age between the ages of five and twelve. Although there are instruments for EDs, it is necessary to have a self-applicable instrument for evaluating DEBs in children.
