Cervical cancer is the second most frequent cancer in Mexican women, representing 16.9% of the total female population. At the National Cancer Institute of Mexico (Instituto Nacional de Cancerología), 80% cervical cancer patients arrive at locally advanced stages (IB2-IVA). Standard treatment for
The dysfunction of wound healing in diabetes involves multiple healing processes by diminished inflammatory responses and delayed deposition of matrix components, wound remodeling, and closure. Furthermore, hyperglycemia increases the infection susceptibility of wounds. The wounds noted at distal
Globally, the mortality after any infection in cirrhosis patients is very high. The cumulative mortality in patients with infections was 43.5% (11,987 patients) where as the mortality rate without infection was 13.6% (2317 patients). Over the years, variceal bleeding causing death in cirrhosis has
Our current standard nutrition care is based upon existing recommendations and involves nutrition counselling for optimal dietary intake from food and beverages, food fortification, administration of oral nutrition supplementation (ONS) and/or IDPN in malnourished MHD patients.
Among 712 MHD
Triple burden of malnutrition (i.e. protein-energy malnutrition including micronutrient deficiency and overnutrition) is a current global problem. In 2017, 155 out of 677 million children in the world under the age of 5 years were stunted (height for age < -2 SD of the WHO Child Growth Standards
Background and Aims: Protein-energy malnutrition is associated to cirrhosis with a high prevalence and greatly increases the morbidity and mortality of the disease. Malnutrition results of numerous causes including intestinal malabsorption, increased energy resting expenditure, metabolism
Clinical trial study was make, data were obtained from people awaiting liver transplantation and with at least a criteria of protein/energy malnutrition (fase angle < 5.4°, subjective global assessment B or C and/or handgrip strength < 30 in men and < 20 in women). The investigators make them body
Differences in birth weight between children with kwashiorkor (K) and marasmus (M) suggest that intrauterine factors influence the development of these two syndromes of severe acute malnutrition (SAM). Such an effect could play a role in setting specific targets for dietary protein that has been
In Italy, Professor Nicola Scopinaro, after studies in dogs, performed the first BPD in humans in 1976. Because of the lack of blind-loop syndrome and selective malabsorption for starch and fat, the BPD has an accepted risk-benefit ratio compared to the long ago abandoned Jejunoileal Bypass (a
Our preliminary studies indicate that, in older adults, muscle protein anabolism is normally stimulated by amino acids alone, but impaired when nutritional stimuli contain carbohydrate due to a relative insulin resistance of muscle protein synthesis. We have also found that amino acids are the most
