We sought to identify the frequencies of presarcopenia, sarcopenia, and sarcopenic obesity in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and to cross-sectionally determine the nutritional and dietary factors associated with loss of skeletal muscle mass in such patients. Dietary and body component changes produced by a diet intervention were longitudinally investigated. Forty-six NAFLD patients (24 males and 22 females) were enrolled. A second diet treatment was performed at 6 months after entry in 19 of the enrolled patients (6 males and 13 females). Body compositions and dietary nutrients at six months later were compared with those at entry. Three of the 24 (13%) males and four of the 22 (18%) females fulfilled the criteria for presarcopenia and one (5%) female NAFLD patient was in the criteria for sarcopenia at baseline. None of the patients were in the criteria for sarcopenic obesity. The factors associated with skeletal muscle index in the males were body mass index (BMI), insulin-like growth factor-1, total energy intake, and lipid intake, but only BMI and bone mineral density in females at baseline. The diet intervention decreased the skeletal muscle mass in the 6 males by decreasing the total energy intake via lower protein and lipid intakes and improved their liver dysfunction. In the 13 females, a decrease in total energy intake via lower carbohydrate and lipid intake did not change the skeletal muscle mass. These results suggest that loss of skeletal muscle mass is frequently observed in nonobese NAFLD patients and that the frequency of sarcopenic obesity seems to be rare in NAFLD patients. The nutritional and dietary factors that regulate loss of skeletal muscle mass were distinct between our male and female NAFLD patients. Thus, the skeletal muscle mass of such patients as well as their body weight and liver function should be monitored during diet interventions.

Without a cure, dementia affects about 50 million people worldwide. Understanding the effects of dietary habits, a key lifestyle behavior, on memory impairment is critical to inform early behavioral modification to delay further memory loss and progression to dementia. We examined the associations of total energy intake and energy intake from macronutrients with memory impairment among older US adults using data from the nationally representative National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey study 2011–2014. A total of 3623 participants aged ≥60 years were analyzed. Comparing to those with low total energy intake, individuals with high intake were more likely to have severe memory impairment (OR: 1.52, 95% CI: 1.15 to 2.02; ptrend = 0.005). Specifically, higher energy intake from carbohydrate (OR: 1.59, 95% CI: 1.12 to 2.26) and sugar (OR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.11 to 2.16) were both significantly associated with the presence of memory impairment. Additionally, higher energy intake from fat, carbohydrate and sugar were significantly associated with more server memory impairment (fat: ptrend = 0.04; carbohydrate: ptrend = 0.03; sugar: ptrend = 0.02). High energy intake, either total or from carbohydrates, fat or sugar, is associated with memory impairment severity in the older US population. No such association was found in energy intake from protein.

Abstract Background: Participation in exercise, and dietary and nutritional intakes have an impact on the risk and prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS), but these effects may differ according to whether a person lives alone or in a multi-person household. We analyzed differences in physical activity (PA) levels and energy intake according to household-type and MetS presence among young adults, to investigate the relationships among these factors.Methods: Data of 3,974 young adults (aged > 19 years and < 40 years) were obtained from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2016‒2018). We analyzed PA levels (occupational and recreational PA, and place movement) and energy intake (total, carbohydrate, protein, and fat). Results: Logistic regression data showed that low PA levels and higher energy intake were associated with MetS incidence and its components in young adults, after adjusting for body mass index, smoking, household-type, and sex. Overall, there was no significant difference in PA level between the MetS and non-MetS group. The total energy intake was higher in the MetS than in the non-MetS group (p < 0.05). These results were similar to those found in multi-person households. In single-person households, the MetS group had significantly lower PA levels (p < 0.01) and total energy intake (p < 0.05) than the non-MetS group.Conclusions: We found significant association among low PA levels, high energy intake, and MetS components in young Korean adults, but with patterns differing according to household type. Energy intake was higher in young adults with than those without MetS, who lived in multi-person households, while young adults with MetS who lived alone had lower PA levels and lower energy intake than those without MetS. These findings highlight the need for different approaches of implementing PA and nutrition strategies according to the type of household in order to prevent MetS.
