ABSTRACT Objective To verify the interference of the energy intake under-reporting in the determination of the dietary patterns and nutrient intakes reported by obese women in the waiting list for bariatric surgery. Methods The study included 412 women aged 20 to 45 years with a body mass index ranging from 35 to 60kg/m2 who were on waiting list for bariatric surgery. Data from three reported food intake and physical activity, body weight, and height were used for estimating the reported energy intake, physical activity level, and resting energy expenditure. Subsequently, it was checked the biological plausibility of the reported energy intakes, classifying all participants as plausible reporters or under-reporters. Exploratory factor analysis was used to determine the participants’ dietary patterns. The Mann-Whitney test assessed the reported energy and nutrient intakes between plausible reporters and under-reporters groups. The Z-test assessed the variables of plausible reporters or under-reporters in relation to all participants of the study. Results Six dietary patterns were determined for all participants of study. After excluding information from under-reporting women, only two dietary patterns remained similar to those of all participants, while three other dietary patterns presented different conformations from food subgroups to plausible reporters. The reported energy intake did not present difference for the subgroups of fruits, leaf vegetables and vegetables. However, the energetic value reported for the other food subgroups was higher for the plausible reporters. Conclusion The under-reporting of energy intake influenced the determination of dietary patterns of obese women waiting for bariatric surgery.

The Impact

Abstract Aims The aims of this study were to assess the changes in HRQoL during the 2 years follow-up between patients who underwent surgery and those on a long waiting list . Methods Between January to December 2017, 70 surgical patients and 69 patients on the waiting list were interviewed at baseline, 12-month and 24-month follow-up. Quality of life was measured by the SF-12v2 and the Impact of Weight on Quality of Life-Lite (IWQoL) questionnaires. Socio-demographics, clinical, and surgical-related variables were collected. Results 139 patients were analyzed, with similar baseline characteristics. Analyzing the entire sample: the higher the BMI, the worse the scores in the IWQoL. Performing more qualified work improves several aspects of the SF-12v2. In contrast, patients with depression tended to score worse on all dimensions of both questionnaires, women scored worse on the Self-Esteem domain and men improved on the Mental Health one. At 12 and 24-month follow-up, statistically significant differences were found among all aspects of the questionnaires between both groups (P<.001). Furthermore, scores were lower in all domains in the evolution of wait-listed patients, with statistically differences among Bodily Pain, Emotional Role, Mental Health, and Mental Component Summary domains (P<.05) at 12 months, but differences were not found at 24 months. Conclusions The quality of life of patients undergoing bariatric surgery is normalized one year after surgery, while patients on the waiting list get worse. Knowing the benefits of bariatric surgery, working on programs with long waiting lists should move us to fight against an unfair and unacceptable situation.

The Impact

Abstract Background and Aims Patients on renal replacement therapy (RRT) pose multiple risk factors that may increase the risk of death from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Currently, evidence of incidence, management, and prognosis of COVID-19 in this population are scarce. Method Between May and December 2020, we followed two RRT populations that have the same tertiary hospital in Southern Brazil as its reference hospital for transplantation. Firstly, we monitored eight affiliated dialysis clinics keeping track of COVID-19 incidence and fatality rate in dialysis patients and those on the kidney transplant waiting list. In the same period, we also monitor COVID-19 incidence and mortality among our prevalent population of kidney transplant recipients. Results We evaluated 1049 patients in RRT in the dialysis centers. COVID-19 occurred in 89 of such patients (8.5%), and 31 died from such condition (35.8% death rate). Fifteen patients (5.45%), among 275 on the kidney transplant waiting list, contracted the virus, with one death (6.6%). Within our prevalent population of 1348 kidney transplant recipients, 113 were diagnosed with COVID19 (incidence: 8.4%), and 17 of them died (mortality rate: 15%). Finally, the number of kidney transplants decreased by 60.4% compared with the same period in the previous year. Conclusion COVID-19 determined a substantial impact on RRT. A high frequency of chronic dialysis patients expired from the disease. The impact on the patients on the transplant waiting list seems to be less pronounced probably due to their better health conditions. The fatality rate in kidney transplant recipients is elevated and probably mostly related to comorbidities. Brazil is currently entering the second wave of the disease and it is crucial to find and provide means to protect such vulnerable populations.
