Silvia Leite Faria; Orlando Pereira Faria; Cynthia Buffington; Mariane de Almeida Cardeal; Marina Kiyomi Ito

Bariatric surgery, a highly successful treatment for obesity, requires adherence to special dietary recommendations to insure the achievement of weight loss goals and weight maintenance. Postoperative consumption of protein is linked to satiety induction, nutritional status, and weight loss. Hence, we conducted an extensive literature review to identify studies focused on the following: protein and nutritional status; recommendations for dietary protein intake; the effects of protein-rich diets; and associations between dietary protein intake and satiety, weight loss, and body composition. We found that there have been few studies on protein intake recommendations for bariatric patients. Dietary protein ingestion among this population tends to be inadequate, potentially leading to a loss of lean body mass, reduced metabolic rates, and physiological damage. Conversely, a protein-rich diet can lead to increased satiety, enhanced weight loss, and improved body composition. The quality and composition of protein sources are also very important, particularly with respect to the quantity of leucine, which helps to maintain muscle mass, and thus is particularly important for this patient group. Randomized studies among bariatric surgery patient populations are necessary to establish the exact quantity of protein that should be prescribed to maintain their nutritional status.

BackgroundIn bariatric surgery patients, weight loss and long-term weight maintenance are related to food intake and eating patterns. To improve the diet orientation in the bariatric surgery postoperative period, we assessed the postoperative eating patterns and related them to weight loss.MethodsThis was a transversal, analytical, and descriptive study that assessed body mass index (BMI) values and percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) in patients who had undergone Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) surgery. The eating pattern and energy intake were investigated based on data collected through a 4-day food intake record. From these records, we assessed the number of daily meals, the quantity of food per meal, and calorie value of snacks between main meals. Based on these records, patients were classified under sweet-eating, snack-eating, or normal-eating patterns.ResultsSeventy-five patients met our inclusion criteria. The normal-eating pattern group was the one with the greatest weight loss with an average %EWL of 71.4 ± 21%, followed by the sweet-eating pattern with 69.9 ± 16.8%, and the snack-eating pattern with 56.4 ± 16.7%. This difference was significant only between the first and the third group (p = 0.04). The snack-eating patients had the highest caloric intake and highest number of daily meals (p < 0.01).ConclusionPostoperative eating pattern influenced postbariatric surgery weight loss. In the present study, the snack-eating pattern was associated with the worst weight loss outcome, followed by the sweet-eating and normal-eating patterns. A screening and a differential approach to patients according to their eating patterns may lead to better results of weight loss.

BackgroundThe prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) has increased in developing countries in recent decades. This syndrome, a clustering of metabolic abnormalities, has been correlated to various socioeconomic and behavioral variables. We investigated the prevalence and prevalence ratios (PR) of MetS and related factors in an adult population of the Federal District (FD) of Brazil, which is located in the central region of the country.MethodsA cross-sectional, population-based study conducted in 2007, with 2130 adults (aged 18 years or older) in the FD of Brazil. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the recently harmonized criteria. The prevalence of MetS and PR were estimated for each sex according to the diagnostic components and the overall contribution of the selected correlates.ResultsThe overall prevalence of MetS was 32.0% (95%CI: 28.9–35.2), with no gender difference. The single component with the greatest contribution to the diagnosis of MetS was hypertension in men (PR 5.10, 95%CI: 3.17–8.22) and high waist circumference in women (PR 5.02, 95%CI: 3.77–6.69). The prevalence of MetS increased significantly and progressively with age and excess weight. In women, higher education was protective against MetS (PR 0.66, 95%CI: 0.49–0.89) compared to 8 or less years of education. There was no association between the prevalence of MetS and behavioral variables studied.ConclusionsThis study provides comprehensive and alarming data about the prevalence of MetS among the adult population of Brazil’s FD. The results suggest that reducing education inequalities may be an important public policy goal to improve health outcomes, especially among women.

BackgroundWeight loss and long-term weight maintenance in bariatric surgery patients are related to maintaining satiety. It can be related to glycemic load (GL) and carbohydrate (g CHO) intake. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of g CHO and GL and in weight loss on patients who had undergone bariatric surgery.MethodThe following measurements/calculations were conducted as follows: current body weight (kg), current BMI, percentage of excess weight loss (PEWL), average monthly weight loss (AMWL), energy intake (kcal per day), and GL calculation. Correlations were found among the studied variables. A multiple linear regression analysis of diet variables executed with GL and weight loss.ResultsThe population presented 66% of EWL. The average of total energy intake (TEI) was 1220 ± 480, and the calculated GL resulted in an average of 73.2. Negative correlations were found between AMWL and TEI (p = 0.04), and between AMWL and GL (p = 0.009); furthermore, a negative correlation was found between carbohydrate intake in grams and AMWL (p = 0.003). A positive correlation (p = 0.017) was found between GL and TEI. Weight loss and GL were also correlated. Among the intake variables, GL and g CHO consumed are held accountable for 62 percent of AMWL. The multiple linear regression analysis showed that GL and carbohydrate grams (g CHO) account for 62% of AMWL.ConclusionThe glycemic load and grams of carbohydrate are intake factors that can be useful tools in weight loss and long-term weight maintenance on patients who have undergone Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB).

BACKGROUND Preoperative bariatric patients can follow very low calorie diets (VLCD), reducing surgical risks. However, possible advantages of a liquid diet over one of normal consistency are controversial. This study investigated the effect of a liquid VLCD compared with one of normal consistency considering visceral fat (VF) loss and metabolic profile in preoperative clinically severe obese patients. METHODS This was a randomized, open-labeled, controlled clinical trial. Patients were divided into 2 groups: liquid diet and normal diet. Data were collected at baseline and 7 and 14 days after intervention. Information gathered was analyzed for loss of weight and VF, biochemical data, anthropometric data, and energy intake. RESULTS Fifty-seven patients consumed the liquid diet and 47 consumed the normal consistency diet. The liquid diet group lost significantly more weight (P<.0290) and VF (P<.0410) than the normal diet group. An inverse correlation occurred between VF loss and surgical time among the liquid diet group (r2=-.1302, P=.001). Additionally, there was a positive correlation between the percentage of excess weight loss and ketonuria (P=.0070). No between-group difference occurred regarding calorie intake. CONCLUSION Patients that consumed a liquid diet presented a positive effect on reducing VF and greater weight loss than the normal diet group. Both VLCDs presented benefits offering a protective effect during the preoperative stage.

OBJECTIVE Although essential to many vital processes, iron catalyzes reactions that produce reactive oxygen species, which are associated with the increased risk of non-communicable chronic diseases and precocious aging. This study investigated whether ferritin, hemoglobin concentration, and dietary iron consumption are related to oxidative stress biomarkers in adults. METHODS Data were collected from 134 allegedly healthy subjects >18 y of age who were randomly selected to participate in a cross-sectional study as part of the pilot project Prevalence of Risk Factors for Non-communicable Chronic Diseases in the Federal District, Brazil (VIVA Saúde-DF). Serum ferritin, malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein carbonyl concentrations, hemoglobin, and dietary iron consumption were analyzed. RESULTS A weak positive correlation (r = 0.189, P = 0.032) and association (P = 0.046) was observed for serum ferritin and MDA. Hemoglobin concentrations were positively associated with serum MDA (P = 0.040). Dietary iron intake and serum protein carbonyl concentrations showed a weak positive correlation (r = 0.173, P = 0.046) for all subjects. Iron intake by women was positively associated with serum protein carbonyl (P = 0.03). A lower serum MDA concentration was found in ferritin-deficient subjects (P = 0.015) and men with anemia (P = 0.011). CONCLUSION These results suggest that low levels of iron may reduce oxidative stress.

BACKGROUND Studies in humans and other animals have shown that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) leads to increased energy expenditure (EE). We analyzed several components of EE, such as the respiratory quotient (RQ), resting metabolic rate (RMR), and diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT) among patients before and after RYGB. METHODS In this prospective clinical study, RMR, DIT, and RQ were measured by indirect calorimetry (IC) in the same patients before and 12 months after RYGB (the preoperative and postoperative time points, respectively). Postprandial RQ and DIT were measured after patients consumed a standard ~270 kcal meal (62% carbohydrates, 12% proteins, and 26% lipids). RESULTS The population studied consisted of 13 patients (mean age 40.8 ± 6.7 years, 85% female).At the postoperative (postop) time point, patients showed higher weight-adjusted RMR compared with the preoperative (preop) time point (P<.01). The absolute and weight-adjusted metabolic rates 20 minutes after the meal were increased postoperatively (P<.0001) but not preoperatively (P = 0.2962) (DIT); this increase in RQ was significantly higher in the postop than in the preop time point. CONCLUSION The observed patients showed increased EE, DIT, and RQ after RYGB surgery. These data may serve as important physiologic factors contributing to the loss and maintenance of weight after RYGB.

OBJETIVO: Investigar adesao a programa de aconselhamento nutricional em grupo para individuos com excesso de peso e comorbidades. METODOS: Estudo analitico de intervencao controlada e aberta. Oitenta adultos, de ambos os sexos, com indice de massa corporal entre 25 e 35kg/m², portadores de dois ou mais fatores de risco cardiovascular associados foram alocados aleatoriamente em dois grupos para acompanhamento por tres meses. O grupo de intervencao com aconselhamento nutricional em grupo recebeu atendimento individual e participou de seis reunioes grupais para discussao sobre alimentacao saudavel e atividade fisica, com dinâmicas e metodo participativo. O grupo-controle, com atendimento padrao individual, foi assistido em tres consultas ambulatoriais. Consideraram-se repercussoes dieteticas antes e apos a intervencao e assiduidade as reunioes como parâmetros de adesao ao tratamento. RESULTADOS: Trinta e tres participantes concluiram o estudo. Do total inicial, 45,8% e 40,7% do grupo de intervencao com aconselhamento nutricional em grupo e do grupo-controle com atendimento padrao individual, respectiva-mente, atingiram nivel otimo de assiduidade. Os fatores mais citados como barreiras a adesao ao tratamento foram fazer refeicoes fora de casa (46,7% - grupo-controle com atendimento padrao individual) e dificuldade em aplicar os conhecimentos na pratica, principalmente em eventos sociais (33,3% - grupo de intervencao com aconselhamento nutricional em grupo). Verificou-se aumento significativo do percentual medio do uso de temperos naturais e do numero de refeicoes ao dia nos dois grupos apos a intervencao. Porem, nao houve diminuicao significativa do consumo energetico intra ou entre os grupos. CONCLUSAO: Apesar da abrangencia do conteudo e do emprego de um metodo participativo no grupo de intervencao, a adesao foi insuficiente para alterar significativamente os principais parâmetros dieteticos estudados. O apro-fundamento da abordagem comportamental, continuada e multiprofissional deve ser objeto de mais investigacoes.

BACKGROUND & AIMS Standardized phase angle (SPA) is a value derived from bioelectrical impedance phase angle analysis and has been recognized as marker of nutritional risk and clinical status of cancer patients. This study aimed to evaluate the changes in SPA during radiation therapy of cancer patients and identify possible nutritional and clinical determinants of these changes. METHODS Nutritional assessment was performed before the initiation and at the end of the radiotherapy. It included anthropometrics and bioelectrical impedance analysis. A generalized linear mixed model was used to evaluate the effects of selected independent variables on the changes in standardized phase angle. RESULTS A total of 104 patients entered the study and those with complete information were included in the analysis (n = 62). Most patients (61%) were at clinical stage I and II, the most prevalent irradiation site was the pelvis (39%) and 98% were well nourished or overweight. According to the regression analysis, changes in body weight and irradiation at head and neck/upper abdomen and thorax were associated with standardized phase angle modifications during radiotherapy. Clinical stage and radiation dose were not associated with changes in standardized phase angle. Compared to baseline values, for every 1 kg weight reduction during the radiation therapy, the standardized phase angle also decreased by 0.107 (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS In well nourished or overweight patients, weight loss during radiation therapy is closely associated with decrease in standard phase angle.

Mariane de Almeida Cardeal; Silvia Leite Faria; Orlando Pereira Faria; Marcela Facundes; Marina Kiyomi Ito

BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery has been shown to be an effective treatment for obesity. Changes in energy expenditure, especially through diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT), have been identified as one of the mechanisms to explain this success. However, not all patients are able to maintain healthy postoperative weight loss. Therefore, a question arises: In the weight regain after bariatric surgery, are these changes in energy metabolism still active? OBJECTIVE To investigate if weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is associated with a lower diet-induced thermogenesis in the late postoperative period. SETTING A cross-sectional study with the participants chosen from among the patients from a private practice. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study where 3 groups of female patients were evaluated: (1) 20 patients with a RYGB postoperative time period of at least 2 years, who kept a healthy weight after surgery (loss of at least 50% of excess weight; Healthy group); (2) 19 patients with clinically severe obesity (BMI>40 kg/m(2), without co-morbidities and>35 kg/m(2), with co-morbidities; Pre group); (3) 18 patients who experienced weight regain after RYGB (Regain group). The 3 groups were submitted to indirect calorimetry to measure resting metabolic rate (RMR), respiratory quotient (RQ), and DIT. Immediately after the RMR measurement, a mixed meal of regular consistency was offered. Ten minutes after the food intake began, energy expenditure measurements were initiated continuing throughout the following 3 postprandial hours. Body composition was evaluated using multifrequency bioelectrical impedance. In subgroups of the studied population, glucose and insulin levels were measured at baseline and at 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 minutes after feeding. The mean area under the curve (AUC) between the 3 groups and measurements at baseline were compared using the analysis of variance (ANOVA). RESULTS The Healthy group had the highest weight adjusted RMR value compared with both the Pre and Regain group (23.03±3.02 kcal/kg; 16.18±2.94 kcal/kg; 17.11±3.28 kcal/kg, respectively; P<.0001). The Regain and Pre groups showed no difference for this variable. The weight-adjusted DIT (AUC 0-180 min) was about 42% and 34% higher in the Healthy group compared with the Pre and Regain groups, respectively (P<.0001). Lean body mass (kg) showed a positive correlation with the AUC of weight-adjusted DIT in the 3 groups. Multiple regression revealed that lean body mass was the only variable related to weight adjusted DIT, independent of group and other selected variables. CONCLUSION Weight-adjusted DIT in the Regain group was smaller compared with the Healthy group, and with no difference compared with the Pre group. The lean body mass seems to have a positive association with diet-induced thermogenesis.
