We investigated the relative contribution of macronutrients to postnatal growth in preterm infants born <33 wk of gestation.An audit of daily parenteral and enteral intakes of protein, carbohydrate, fat, energy, and growth (daily weight, weekly length, and head circumference) from birth to discharge home in 138 infants at <33 wk of gestation admitted to an Australian tertiary hospital was done...
Probiotics and cranberry have been shown to inhibit Helicobacter pylori in vitro owing to bacteriocin production and high levels of proanthocyanidins, respectively. These effects have been confirmed in clinical trials with H. pylori–positive subjects. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether regular intake of cranberry juice and the probiotic Lactobacillus johnsonii La1 (La1) may result in an...
Glutamine is suggested to participate in glutathione synthesis. Furthermore, there is a positive relation between glutathione level and natural killer (NK) cell activity. Previously we demonstrated that supplemental glutamine inhibited tumor growth in an implantable tumor model and 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced oral squamous cell carcinoma model; these reductions were associated with...
This study examined the relation between quality of dietary carbohydrate intake, as measured by glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL), and serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels.During a 1-y observational study, data were collected at baseline and at each quarter thereafter. GI and GL were calculated from multiple 24-h dietary recalls (24HRs), 3 randomly selected 24HRs at every...
We investigated vitamin D status in institutionalized elderly subjects by measuring serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) and its association with season and other factors: age, gender, nutritional status, cognitive function, functional ability, dietary intake, vitamin D supplement consumption, and disease.The cross-sectional study included 86 subjects, 65–94 y of age (29 men and 57 women), who lived...
