Chemotherapy-induced mucosal injury of the small intestine may interfere with the enzymes and transporters responsible for the hydrolysis and absorption of dietary carbohydrates causing diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort and pain. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the consumption of foods rich in FODMAPs (fermentable oligo-, di- and monosaccharides and polyols) and gastrointestinal symptoms in patients receiving adjuvant therapy for colorectal cancer. The patients (n = 52) filled in a 4-day food diary at baseline and during therapy and kept a symptom diary. The intakes of FODMAP-rich foods were calculated as portions and the intakes were divided into two consumption categories. Patients with high consumption of FODMAP-rich foods had diarrhoea more frequently than those with low consumption (for lactose-rich foods the odds ratio (OR) was 2.63, P = 0.03; and for other FODMAP-rich foods 1.82, P = 0.20). Patients with high consumption of both lactose-rich and other FODMAP-rich foods had an over 4-fold risk of developing diarrhoea as compared to those with low consumption of both (OR, 4.18; P = 0.02). These results were confirmed in multivariate models. Conclusion: Consumption of lactose-rich foods results in an increased risk of diarrhoea during adjuvant therapy for colorectal cancer, especially when the consumption of other FODMAP-rich foods is also high.

Abstract Background Consumption of polyphenolic compounds from various food sources is associated with a reduction in cardiovascular risk factors. The region of residence, the food habits of the population, and age have a significant impact on consumption. Methods Participants: the Siberian urban population (Novosibirsk, HAPIEE study, 9324 (4,249 men and 5,075 women) aged 45-69. Dietary data collected using a 141-item food frequency questionnaire. Data on the polyphenols were taken from the Phenol-Explorer database (3.6). Total polyphenols (TPH) were considered as a sum of all individual classes: flavonoids, phenolic acids, stilbenes, lignans and other polyphenols and their food sources. The consumption of polyphenolic compounds in the age groups of 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64 and more than 65 years was analyzed. To assess the relationship between CVD risk factors and the consumption of TPH, the odds ratio was calculated in quartiles of TPH consumption (OR). Results The consumption of TPH in men was 1273 (647) and 1203 (626) mg/day in women (P < 0,05). The main class for both men and women were flavonoids, as well as phenolic acids. For men, respectively, 68 and 21% of the total consumption of TPH, for women 70 and 20%. Chances of developing hypertension in quartiles of high and low consumption of TPH showed a risk reduction in whole population by 58%, in quartiles of high and low consumption of total flavonoids - by 56% and phenolic acids - by 21%. The main sources of TPH were tea, coffee, fruits, vegetables and rye bread. With increasing age, both men and women experience a decrease in TPH consumption by 9.5 and 11%, respectively, of flavonoids - by 10.6 and 15%. This is due to a decrease in fruit consumption with increasing age. Conclusions The consumption of polyphenol compounds in the Siberian urban population associated with reduction of hypertension and determined by age. The study was carried out in the framework of budget theme No. AAAA-A17-117112850280-2. Key messages Consumption of polyphenolic compounds in the Siberian population is associated with a reduced risk of hypertension. In recommendations for the prevention of hypertension in the older age group, it is necessary to consider the increase in the consumption of fruits and berries from local sources.

AbstractThis article analyzes the use of antibiotics in Danish general practice. We observed considerable variation in the prescription of antibiotics among general practitioners (GPs). Internationally, Denmark has a low consumption of antibiotics. The use of antibiotics was closely associated with GPs' use of drugs, other than antibiotics, and to some extent with use of microbiological diagnostic tests. These findings provide evidence for the assumption that the consumption of antibiotics can be decreased further, which stresses the need for a restrictive policy concerning antibiotics.

В работе приводятся обобщающие зависимости коэффициентов расхода сопловых аппаратов со сверхзвуковыми осесимметричными соплами в широком диапазоне изменения определяющих геометрических и режимных параметров. Предложена двухпараметрическая функция, учитывающая влияние расположения сопел в сопловом аппарате и степени конфузорности дозвуковой части осесимметричного сопла на коэффициент расхода. Показано слабое влияние на коэффициент расхода относительного радиуса закругления стенки в узкой части сопла и относительной длины дозвуковой части сопла в области их оптимальных значений определенных по минимуму потерь кинетической энергии. Переменные режимы работы сопла учитываются зависимостью относительного коэффициента расхода в функции от числа Рейнольдса в критическом сечении сопла. Полученные в работе эмпирические зависимости позволяют использовать их при моделировании переменных режимов и многорежимной оптимизации малорасходных турбин. The research presents generalizing dependences of mass flow rates in supersonic axisymmetric nozzle diaphragms n a wide range of variation of the governing geometric and operating parameters. A two-parameter function is proposed that takes into account the influence of the location of the nozzles in the nozzle apparatus and the degree of compression of the flow of the subsonic part of the nozzle on the mass flow rate. It is shown that the relative radius of rounding of the nozzle wall in the vicinity of the throat section and the relative length of the subsonic part of the nozzle in the region of their optimal values determined by the minimum of kinetic energy losses have a weak effect on the flow rate. Variable duties of nozzle operation are taken into account by the dependence of the relative flow rate as a function of the Reynolds number in the throat of the nozzle. The empirical dependencies obtained in this work make it possible to use them in modeling variable modes and multi-mode optimization of low-consumption turbines.
