Importância Do Consumo De Fibras Em Portadores De Doença Diverticular Do Cólon: Uma Revisão / Importance of Fiber Consumption in Patients with Diverticular Colon Disease: A Review

Obesity is a condition of imbalance in the number of calories entered by the number of calories where the excess is heaped up as body fat. Obesity followed by an increase in fat metabolism will cause Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) production to increase. This condition causes oxidative stress. Indicators of oxidative stress can be observed from plasma levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA). This study aims to determine the risk factors for oxidative stress in obese women. The results of this study indicate that high fat intake (> 60 g / day) is at risk of increasing MDA-P levels twice. Low fiber consumption (<30 gr / day) gives the risk of an increase in MDA-P levels of 2.09 times. Poor physical activity is a risk factor for MDA-P increase of 1.15 times. High cholesterol (> 200mg / l) and LDL (> 130 mg / l) and low HDL (≤45mg / dl) levels are at risk of increasing MDA-P levels by 1.02 times (cholesterol), 1.13 (LDL) ) and 1.12 (HDL). Based on this study it can be concluded that high fat intake, low fiber intake, low physical activity, high cholesterol and HDL levels and low HDL levels are risk factors for oxidative stress.

ABSTRACT Background: Polytherapy treatment is a common practice observed among menopausal patients. This study aimed to quantify food intake and medications in climacteric patients living in community. Methods: Eligible patients from Climacteric Outpatient Clinic (HCFMRP/USP) were recruited. The collected data were: food intake records, age, body weight, height, levels of physical activity and medications in use. Results: Eighty women were studied. Their age was 548 years and body mass index 307kg/m2. They had inadequate dietary Fe, K, Mg, Ca, thiamin, pyridoxine, vitamin E, folate and fiber consumption; 62% used 3 or more medications/day among hypotensive, micronutrients and anti-depressants. Conclusion: Climacteric women need special attention regarding nutrient intake and medication prescription.

Bariatric surgery is considered to be an effective treatment for the resolution of severe obesity; however, in more than half of the bariatric surgery patients, weight reacquisition occurs as early as 18 months postsurgery, compromising the surgery’s beneficial effects. Maintaining weight loss after surgery poses a great challenge, necessitating the identification of predicting factors. In the present study, we explored the association between weight regain and dietary habits and behavioral lifestyle practices in patients following bariatric surgery. Fifty patients who underwent bariatric surgery with ≥18-month postoperative period of follow-up were included. They were classified into two groups: weight maintainers (n = 29) were patients who regained <15% of their weight, and weight regainers (n = 21) were patients who regained ≥15% of their weight compared to their lowest postoperative weight. The mean age of the study participants was 41.4 ± 8.9 years, and twenty-eight patients (56%) of the total, were females. A detailed analysis of dietary and lifestyle habits was performed by questionnaire-based interviews. Significant weight regain was noted in the regainers compared to the maintainers (19.6 ± 8.4 kg vs. 4.5 ± 3.5 kg, respectively, P≤0.001), which was attributed to their following of unhealthy dietary habits and behavioral lifestyle practices. The dietary and behavioral lifestyle practices adopted by the maintainers were higher fiber consumption and water intake, monitored pace of eating, evasion of emotional binge, and distracted eating and following of self-assessment behaviors. Additionally, regular nutritional follow-ups and compliance with postoperative dietary counseling significantly helped to improve weight maintenance. In conclusion, the effectiveness of weight loss postbariatric surgery was compromised by weight regain due to unhealthy dietary and behavioral lifestyle practices stemming from a lack of nutritional guidance and knowledge. The implementation of comprehensive nutritional counseling and advice on behavioral changes before and after surgery will help achieve optimal weight results.

The gut microbiome is a key factor in chronic liver disease progression. In prior research, we found that the duodenal microbiome was associated with sex, ethnicity, and cirrhosis complications. Here, we examined the association between diet and the duodenal microbiome in patients with liver cirrhosis. This study included 51 participants who completed a detailed food frequency questionnaire and donated duodenal biopsies for microbiome characterization by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing. Data were analyzed for alpha diversity, beta diversity, and association of taxa abundance with diet quality and components using QIIME 2 pipelines. Diet quality was assessed through calculation of the Healthy Eating Index 2010. Participants with higher adherence to protein recommendations exhibited increased microbial richness and evenness (p = 0.03) and a different microbial profile compared to those with lower adherence (p = 0.03). Prevotella-9 and Agathobacter were increased in association with increased protein adherence. Fiber consumption was also associated with the duodenal microbial profile (p = 0.01), with several taxa exhibiting significantly decreased or increased abundance in association with fiber intake. Coffee drinking was associated with microbial richness and evenness (p = 0.001), and there was a dose–response association between coffee drinking and relative abundance of Veillonella (p = 0.01). We conclude that protein, fiber, and coffee are associated with diversity and composition of the duodenal microbiome in liver cirrhosis.

Ignition Propensity

Upholstery fabric and padding material play an important role in upholstered furniture flammability. As market preferences for upholstery fibers and fabrics change, there are significant implications for fire safety. Fiber consumption data and fabric surveys show an increasing usage of cotton fibers in upholstery, leading to higher ignition propensity. Of particular impor tance are the cotton fiber's alkali metal ion content, and heavier weight fabric constructions, in determining the susceptibility for smoldering ignition due to smoking materials. To realize the goal of fire-resistant upholstered furniture, while still satisfying consumer preferences for fiber, style and design, the criti cal trends and controlling factors in upholstery flammability are emphasized. A review of regulatory approaches to redress the problem is also included, in view of recent petitions by the fire marshals (NASFM) calling for mandatory Federal standards.

Abstract Objectives The objective of this study was to determine whether a novel fiber formulation improves glucose, insulin, and lipid profiles in overweight men and women consuming a low fiber diet. Methods Twenty individuals were enrolled in this randomized order, placebo-controlled, cross-over study. Participants were young, healthy, overweight (BMI 23.0–32.0) and consumed <15 g/day of fiber. All participants consumed the fiber and placebo supplement for a period of 4 weeks each, with a 4-week washout between intervention arms. Participants recorded their diet for 3 days using dietary records twice during each 4-week segment. They consumed either fiber and/or placebo packet containing a total of 12 g/serving per day. The Fiber and/or Placebo was given out as powder form which include mostly dietary fiber (resistant starch, fructooligosaccharide, sugarcane fiber, and inulin), rice flour, xanthan gum, and fruit powders that was mixed with water for consumption. Questionnaires, anthropometric measurements, blood draws, and stool samples were collected at each study visit. Changes in glucose, insulin, and lipid profile (total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerols (TG), HDL-C and calculated LDL-C) were assessed using a linear mixed model. Results The mean change in fasted glucose, insulin, and lipid profiles showed a tendency to decrease in response to fiber consumption compared with the placebo but did not meet statistical significance (P = 0.29, 0.42, and 0.61) due to high interindividual variability. This clinical trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03785860. Conclusions Cardiometabolic profiles did not change in response to the fiber supplement.
