Nutrition adequacy in the late period of the acute phase is associated with a lower risk of 30-day mortality in critically ill patients: A prospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: In critically ill patients, nutrition adequacy (≥80% EN) during days 5-10 in the ICU was associated with a lower risk of 30-day mortality.PMID:38666749 | DOI:10.1002/ncp.11155 (Source: Nutrition in Clinical Practice)

Considerations for medical nutrition therapy management of the critically ill patient with hematological malignancies: A narrative review
Nutr Clin Pract. 2024 Apr 26. doi: 10.1002/ncp.11152. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPatients with hematological malignancies (HMs) are more frequently admitted now than in the past to the intensive care unit (ICU) due to more aggressive approaches in primary therapy of HMs and the need for critical care support. Pathophysiological alterations derived from HMs and the different hematological therapies, such as chemotherapy, negatively affect gastrointestinal (GI) function, metabolism, and nutrition status. Further, malnutrition strongly influences outcomes and tolerance of the different hematological therapies. In consequen...

Looking to the future: Agendas, directions, and resources for nutrition research
Nutr Clin Pract. 2024 Apr 26. doi: 10.1002/ncp.11154. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe development and progression of nutrition as a scientific field is ever evolving and complex. Although the history of nutrition research began by exploring specific food components, it has evolved to encompass a more holistic view that considers the impact of dietary patterns over time, interactions with the environment, nutrition's role in disease processes, and public policy related to nutrition health. To guide the future direction of nutrition science, both federal and other professional organizations have established agendas and goa...

Enteral nutrition: An underappreciated source of patient safety events
Nutr Clin Pract. 2024 Apr 26. doi: 10.1002/ncp.11153. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEnteral nutrition (EN) therapies are prescribed for patients not able to maintain adequate nutrition through the oral route. Medical errors and close calls associated with the provision of EN therapy leading to actual and potential patient harm have been reported. The purpose of this study was to determine the number, type, and severity of safety events related to the provision of EN therapies reported to a national database and provide workable recommendations from the literature to improve safety. An interdisciplinary team queried the Nat...

Artificial intelligence in clinical nutrition and dietetics: A brief overview of current evidence
This article finds a multitude of developments underway, which include the use of AI for malnutrition screening; predicting clinical outcomes, such as disease onset, and clinical risks, such as drug interactions; aiding interventions, such as estimating nutrient intake; applying precision nutrition, such as measuring postprandial glycemic response; and supporting workflow through chatbots trained on natural language models. Although the opportunity and scalability of AI is incalculably attractive, especially in the face of poor healthcare resources, the threat cannot be ignored. The risk of malpractice and lack of accounta...

Emergence of imaging technology beyond the clinical setting: Utilization of mobile health tools for at-home testing
Nutr Clin Pract. 2024 Apr 9. doi: 10.1002/ncp.11151. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBody composition assessment plays a pivotal role in understanding health, disease risk, and treatment efficacy. This narrative review explores two primary aspects: imaging techniques, namely ultrasound (US) and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and mobile health apps in telehealth for body composition. Although US is valuable for assessing subcutaneous fat and muscle thickness, DXA accurately quantifies bone mineral content, fat mass, and lean mass. Despite their effectiveness, accessib...
