Active clinical trials for "Nutrition Disorders"

The purpose of this study is to determine what the long term survival is after in hospital use of total parenteral nutrition due to intestinal failure. Earlier studies only followed patients for a maximum of 6 months or included only very specific patients. We were interested in all patients in our hospital and followed them for up to 2 years.

The objective of the study is to measure the evolution of the quality of life in infants between 0 and 5 months old, not breastfed and suffering from regurgitation or colic.

This study will present an advanced equipment of tumor nutrition diagnosis and assesment for nasopharyngeal cancer(NPC) radiotherapy patients in nutritional risk screening, evaluation, diagnosis and directing nutritional intervention, aiming to explore the advantages of the whole nutritional management in acute radiation reaction rate, completion rate of radiotherapy, nutritional status, and quality of life for NPC patients.

The study is a before-after trial to evaluate whether the study formula containing moderately hydrolyzed protein and low lactose will be able to improve mild gastrointestinal disorders (MGDs) in infants. The study plans to recruit 90 infants between 7 days and 6 months old in Huantai Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital in Shandong Province and intervene for 14 consecutive days. On Day 0 (the time of enrolling group, but the intervention which infants recruited are asked to drink study formula begins on Day 1), Day 7, Day 14, Infant Gastrointestinal Symptoms Questionnaire-13 (IGSQ-13) is used to collect infants gastrointestinal comfort, related behaviors and other information.

To investigate the etiology, epidemiology and prognostic factors of acute kidney injury. To find out risk factors that relate with the prognosis of acute kidney injury,focusing on inflammation, oxidative stress and nutritional status. To study on the relationship between gene polymorphism and prognosis of acute kidney injury.

The aim of this clinical research is to evaluate the relevance of using the EPA slide to estimate dietary intakes in dialysis patients. The obtained results will be compared with the reference technique validated by the HAS: food intake over 3 days. The aim is also to improve the global management of dialysis patients and improve their quality of life. The aim is to evaluate a quick and easy-to-use tool whose use has been demonstrated in hospitals but for which no study has been carried out in an ambulatory hospitalization context.

The purpose of this study is to assess how family relationships are related to health and nutrition behaviors among transgender and gender diverse youth and young adults.

Master and analyze the nutritional health, growth and development status of primary and secondary school students in Shenzhen, and discover the main nutritional health, growth and development problems and influencing factors. Provide basic data and evidence-based basis for the municipal government and related departments to formulate child health policies and measures.

The prevalence of malnutrition in hospital is very high (30 percent) with major consequences in terms of morbidity and mortality, generating significant health care costs. The positive impact of its support is demonstrated. The HAS (French High Sanitary Authority) recommends a screening of all adult hospitalized in the first 48 hours, with no consensus regarding the organization of screening within care services. Various strategies have been implemented. Although this screening is part of the nursing role, old and recent studies show that it is not done systematically and nutritional disorders are largely under-diagnosed and therefore untreated. The investigators assume that an organization of screening for eating disorders, based on a caregiver dedicated to this activity, improves the indicator IPAQSS (Indicateurs Pour l'Amélioration de la Qualité et de la Sécurité des Soins) which is an indicator for the improvement of the quality and security of care) Screening indicator of nutritional disorders Level 3, compared to an organization "classic" involving the care teams in their entirety. This indicator reflects the care system performance. In this study, patients will have no intervention. Only the organization of the care staff will be adapted but with no changes on the care of patients?

The nutritional consequences of the infection by the SARS-CoV-2 are as follows: A severe respiratory infection induces an inflammatory syndrome and hypercatabolism, as well as an increase in energy expenditure related to ventilatory work; nutritional requirements (calories and protein) are therefore increased. Food intake is often reduced by several factors: anorexia secondary to infection, respiratory discomfort, anosmia, ageusia, obesity, stress, confinement, organizational problems limiting meal assistance. Then, it is important to asses the nutritional status of COVID patients hospitalized in conventional COVID units (excluding intensive care).
