Introduction: The contribution of diet and treatment planning in the treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) has been recognized as having a significant clinical impact if introduced early. Objective: determine the levels of carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, energy and energy density (ED) in an oral hospital diet prescribed to CKD patients, and to evaluate the adequacy of this diet with respect to dietary recommendations. Methods: Diets were collected in a Brazilian public hospital on two non-consecutive days of six different weeks. The carbohydrate, protein, and lipid (total, saturated, monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, linoleic, linolenic and trans fatty acids) contents were determined in a laboratory. The amount of energy and the ED of the diets were calculated using the correction factor Atware and by dividing the total energy of the diet by weight, respectively. Results and Discussion: About 14.3% of the diets produced for patients with CKD were analyzed. The average density of the diets was low (0.7 kcal/g). In terms of nutritional adequacy, the average lipid content (15%) and linolenic fatty acid content (0.4%) were below the recommendation, as was energy (23.4 kcal/kg/day). The average carbohydrate content (63.5%) and protein content (1.0 g/kg/day) exceeded the recommendations levels. Conclusion: The oral hospital diet prepared for patients with CKD were considered unbalanced, and an unfavorable clinical treatment for these patients.

Introducción: La contribución de la dieta y planificación del tratamiento en el tratamiento de la enfermedad renal crónica (ERC) ha sido reconocida por tener un impacto clínico significativo si introducida tempranamente. Objetivo: determinar los niveles de hidratos de carbono, proteínas, lípidos, energía y densidad de energía (DE) en una dieta hospitalaria oral recetada para los pacientes con ERC, y evaluar la adecuación de esta dieta con respecto a las recomendaciones dietéticas. Métodos: Las dietas fueron recogidas en un hospital público brasileño en dos días no consecutivos de seis semanas diferentes. Los contenidos de los hidratos de carbono, proteínas, y lípidos (totales, saturadas, monoinsaturadas, poliinsaturadas, ácidos grasos linoleico, linolénico y trans) fueran determinados en un laboratorio. La cantidad de energía y la DE de las dietas se calcularon utilizando el factor de corrección de Atware, dividiendo la energía total de la dieta en peso, respectivamente. Resultados y Discusión: Fueran analizadas cerca de 14.3% de las dietas producidas y servidas a los pacientes con ERC. La densidad media de las di etas fue baja (0,7 kcal/g). Fue encontrada inadecuación nutricional para el contenido medio en lípidos (15%) y contenido de ácido graso linolénico (0,4%) y de energía (23,4 kcal/kg/día). El contenido de carbohidratos (63,5%) y el contenido de proteínas (1,0 g/kg/día) superaron los niveles de recomendaciones. Conclusiones: La dieta hospitalaria oral preparada para los pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica se muestra desequilibrada y desfavorable para el tratamiento clínico de los pacientes.

Avaliar a relação entre a alteração do comportamento alimentar, associado à insatisfação com a imagem corporal, e o estado nutricional de universitárias de Nutrição. Realizou-se um estudo transversal com 175 universitárias do Curso de Nutrição (ENUT/UFOP). Foram aplicados os questionários Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26) e o Body Shape Questionare (BSQ) e realizadas medidas antropométricas. 21,7% das estudantes apresentaram alto risco para transtornos alimentares e 13,7% apresentaram insatisfação com a imagem corporal. A maioria das estudantes com BSQ e EAT-26 positivos estava eutrófica. As estudantes com excesso de peso, aumento do percentual de gordura corporal (% GC) e do perímetro da cintura (PC) apresentaram risco 5 a 9 vezes maiores de alteração do comportamento alimentar. Houve associação positiva entre os parâmetros antropométricos com a pontuação dos questionários EAT-26 e BSQ. Futuras nutricionistas com excesso de peso apresentaram maior risco de estarem insatisfeitas com a sua imagem corporal e de desenvolverem transtornos alimentares. A utilização de outros parâmetros antropométricos, além do IMC, pode ser útil na triagem de indivíduos suscetíveis ao surgimento de preocupações excessivas com o peso corporal e a alimentação.

The scope of this paper was to evaluate the relationship between changes in eating behavior associated with dissatisfaction with body image, and the nutritional status of female university students of nutrition. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 175 female students of nutrition (ENUT/UFOP). The Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26) and Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) were applied and anthropometric measurements were taken. 21.7% of the students were found to be high risk in terms of eating disorders, and 13.7% declared dissatisfaction with their body image. The majority of students with positive results in the BSQ and EAT-26 tests were eutrophic. The students who were overweight, with elevated body fat percentage (% BF) and waist circumference (WC) had a 5-9 times greater risk of change in eating habits. There was a positive association between the anthropometric parameters with high scores in the EAT-26 and BSQ questionnaires. The future dietitians who are overweight, with increased body fat and waist circumference were more likely to be dissatisfied with their body image and develop eating disorders. The use of other anthropometric parameters, in addition to BMI, may prove useful in screening individuals susceptible to the emergence of excessive concerns with weight and diet.

OBJETIVO: Identificar a influência do consumo de bebidas alcoólicas na adiposidade corporal de universitárias. MÉTODOS: Realizou-se um estudo transversal com universitárias do curso de Nutrição da Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (MG). O perfil de uso do álcool foi avaliado pelo AUDIT e a adiposidade foi avaliada pelo índice de massa corporal, percen-tual de gordura corporal, circunferência da cintura, circunferência do braço, dobra cutânea triciptal e razão cintura-quadril. RESULTADOS: O consumo de bebidas foi relatado por 141 alunas, sendo que 56% (n = 79) fazem uso nocivo de álcool (AUDIT > 8). Os valores médios do percentual de gordura corporal, da circunferência da cintura e da dobra cutânea triciptal foram maiores entre as alunas que relataram consumir bebidas alcoólicas (p < 0,05). Valores médios de circunferência do braço e dobra cutânea triciptal foram maiores entre as alunas que relataram uso nocivo de álcool. Houve associação positiva entre a pontuação do AUDIT e os parâmetros de adiposidade corporal (para percentual de gordura corporal, r = 0,20; p = 0,03); abdominal (para circunferência da cintura, r = 0,29; p = 0,01) e periférica (para circunferência do braço, r = 0,28; p = 0,02, e para dobra cutânea triciptal, r = 0,23;p = 0,007). CONCLUSÃO: O consumo de álcool pode ter influenciado na maior adiposidade entre as universitárias que relataram consumir bebidas alcoólicas. A adiposidade periférica foi maior entre as universitárias que relataram uso nocivo de álcool.

OBJECTIVE: To identify the influence of alcohol intake on body adiposity of female college students. METHODS: Female students attending the Nutrition College Course of Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (MG, Brazil) were the subjects of a transversal study. The pattern of alcohol consumption was evaluated by using the AUDIT questionnaire and the adiposity was evaluated by body mass index, percentage body fat, waist circumference, arm circumference, triceps skin-fold thickness and waist-to-hip ratio. RESULTS: Alcohol consumption was reported by 141 students. Among them, harmful alcohol use (AUDIT > 8) was reported by 56% (n = 79). Mean values of percentage body fat, waist circumference and triceps skin-fold thickness were higher among students who reported any alcohol consumption (p < 0.05). Values of arm circumference and triceps skin-fold thickness were increased among those with a drinking problem. There was a positive association between AUDIT scores and parameters of body adiposity (percentage body fat, r = 0.20; p = 0.03); abdominal adiposity (waist circumference, r = 0.29; p = 0.01) and peripheral adiposity (arm circum-ference, r = 0.28; p = 0.02, and triceps skin-fold thickness, r = 0.23; p = 0.07). CONCLUSION: Alcohol consumption may have increased the body adiposity among students reporting alcohol intake. Peripheral adiposity was higher among those in which this intake was harmful.
