- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Aplicação da escala de conhecimento nutricional em atletas profissionais e amadores de atletismo(Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina do Exercício e do Esporte, 2008-06-01) Nicastro, Humberto; Dattilo, Murilo [UNIFESP]; Santos, Tânia Rodrigues dos; Padilha, Heloisa Vidigal Guarita [UNIFESP]; Zimberg, Ioná Zalcman [UNIFESP]; Crispim, Cibele Aparecida [UNIFESP]; Stulbach, Tamara Eugênia; Centro Universitário São Camilo São Paulo; RG Nutri Consultoria Nutricional São Paulo; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)An adequate nutrition is necessary to supply the energy demand required by exercise as much for active individuals and for athletes. However, much more than sports performance, the nutrition knowledge is essential for both populations for prevention of illnesses. Many interventions centered in nutritional education have been lead with the intention to increase nutrition knowledge and, consequently, improve nutritional behaviors. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the nutrition knowledge of professional and amateur track and field athletes with application of a scale previously validated in Brazil. The sample was composed by 26 professional and 41 amateur track and field athletes of several modalities in phase of continuous training. The results have shown that professional and amateur track and field athletes generally presented moderate nutritional knowledge, with the latter presenting punctuation significantly higher than the professional group, a fact associated with their higher educational background. In conclusion, professional track and field athletes present lower nutritional knowledge, which can be partly attributed to the fact that they see the nutritional science with performance as main objective. Further applications of this scale in professional and amateur athletes must be carried out in order to assess the nutritional knowledge level of this population.
- ItemSomente MetadadadosThe effect of nutritional intervention on the lipid profile and dietary intake of adolescents with juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus: a randomized, controlled trial(Sage Publications Ltd, 2018) Silva, S. G. L. da [UNIFESP]; Terreri, Maria Teresa Ramos Ascensão [UNIFESP]; Abad, Thais Tobaruela Ortiz [UNIFESP]; Machado, D. [UNIFESP]; Fonseca, Fernando Luiz Affonso [UNIFESP]; Hix, S.; Suano de Souza, Fabiola Isabel [UNIFESP]; Sarni, Roseli Oselka Saccardo [UNIFESP]; Len, Claudio Arnaldo [UNIFESP]Objective This study sought to evaluate the effects of a nutritional intervention on the lipid metabolism biomarkers associated with cardiovascular risk, and their variation over time, in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE) patients. This study also investigated the relationships between these biomarkers and dietary intake, nutritional status, disease variables, and medication used. Methods A total of 31 10- to 19-year-old female adolescents with JSLE for at least six months were analyzed. The participants were randomly allocated to two groups: nutritional intervention or control. The intervention group received verbal and printed nutritional instructions once per month over nine months. Before and after the intervention, the participants underwent assessments of anthropometry
- ItemSomente MetadadadosThe effectiveness of a physical activity and nutrition education program in the prevention of overweight in schoolchildren in Criciuma, Brazil(Nature Publishing Group, 2013-11-01) Silva, L. S. M. da; Fisberg, M. [UNIFESP]; Souza Pires, M. M. de; Nassar, S. M.; Sottovia, C. B.; Univ Extremo Catarinense; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC); Cooper InstBACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: the objectives of this study were to evaluate nutritional status, aptitude and physical activity at the beginning and end of the nutrition education and physical activity intervention program as compared with a control group.METHODS: We conducted a 28-week quasi-experimental study involving 238 students (108 in the intervention group (IG) and 130 in the control group (CG)). the IG participated in curricular and extracurricular activities for nutrition education (50 min once a week) and physical activity (50 min twice a week), and the CG participated only in curricular activities. Nutritional status was determined using body mass index, according to the WHO 2007 curve. the effect of the intervention program was evaluated using a model of generalized estimating equations.RESULTS: Among overweight students, a greater reduction in percentile of BMI was observed in the IG (64.6%) compared with CG (36.4%), P=0.001. Improvement in nutritional status occurred in 26.2% of IG versus 10.4% of CG (P=0.014). the IG showed a significant increase in the amount of moderate or vigorous physical activity (P=0.012), whereas in the control group the increase was not significant (P=0.810). in three physical fitness tests, the IG showed significant improvements in performance (P<0.001), whereas the control group's performance was worse in the final evaluation.CONCLUSIONS: the intervention program had a positive effect on overweight, with significant improvements in nutritional status and physical fitness.
- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)A prospective study of nutrition education and oral nutritional supplementation in patients with Alzheimer's disease(Biomed Central Ltd, 2011-09-26) Pivi, Glaucia A. K. [UNIFESP]; Silva, Rosimeire V. da [UNIFESP]; Juliano, Yara; Novo, Neil F.; Okamoto, Ivan H. [UNIFESP]; Brant, Cesar Q. [UNIFESP]; Bertolucci, Paulo H. F. [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Univ Santo Amaro UNISABackground: Weight loss in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common clinical manifestation that may have clinical significance.Objectives: To evaluate if there is a difference between nutrition education and oral nutritional supplementation on nutritional status in patients with AD.Methods: A randomized, prospective 6-month study which enrolled 90 subjects with probable AD aged 65 years or older divided into 3 groups: Control Group (CG) [n = 27], Education Group (EG) [n = 25], which participated in an education program and Supplementation Group (SG) [n = 26], which received two daily servings of oral nutritional supplementation. Subjects were assessed for anthropometric data (weight, height, BMI, TSF, AC and AMC), biochemical data (total protein, albumin, and total lymphocyte count), CDR (Clinical Dementia Rating), MMSE (Mini-mental state examination), as well as dependence during meals.Results: the SG showed a significant improvement in the following anthropometric measurements: weight (H calc = 22.12, p =< 0.001), BMI (H calc = 22.12, p =< 0.001), AC (H calc = 12.99, p =< 0.002), and AMC (H calc = 8.67, p =< 0.013) compared to the CG and EG. BMI of the EG was significantly greater compared to the CG. There were significant changes in total protein (H calc = 6.17, p =< 0.046), and total lymphocyte count in the SG compared to the other groups (H cal = 7.94, p = 0.019).Conclusion: Oral nutritional supplementation is more effective compared to nutrition education in improving nutritional status.
