Human diseases Research and textbook 1
Research and textbook about new advances in human diseases research.
Nutritional Approaches in Chronic Liver Diseases
There is exponential growth of new cases of chronic liver disease worldwide. Even with the advances related to the treatment of viral hepatitis, this epidemiological scenario can be explained with a significant increase in obesity, alcoholism and physical inactivity. Nutrition plays a fundamental role as a promoting agent in the prevention of fatty liver diseases and hepatocellular carcinoma, as well as in the treatment of liver diseases related to metabolic alterations and as an adjuvant treatment in the most diverse complications characteristic of cirrhosis. The nutritional management of patients with chronic liver diseases, regardless of etiology, is still a challenge. There are numerous gaps to be understood in the context of body composition, biomarkers, and dietary strategies in the face of the pathophysiology of cirrhosis.
Nutrition and Sustainable Development Goal 3: Good Health and Wellbeing
Building on the Millennium Development Goals, the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the cornerstone of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, billed by the UN as “an agenda of unprecedented scope and significance.” These seventeen goals are conceived as integrated, indivisible, and as balancing the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development. To be achieved by 2030, the goals are organized around five core pillars: people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnership. As a member of the SDGs Publishers Compact, Frontiers is committed to advocating the themes represented by the SDGs and accelerating progress to achieve them.
Value-Based Nutritional Intervention to Reduce the Progression of Chronic Human Diseases
Nutritional imbalances, including various vitamins and minerals (magnesium, zinc, calcium, iodine, selenium, iron, and phosphate), are associated with the initiation and propagation of various chronic diseases, including metabolic and systemic diseases. Increased accessibility of value-based nutritious foods with professional help to raise the awareness of the long-term benefits of healthy eating habits can delay the evolvement and progression of chronic human diseases. The value-based nutritional intervention can improve general health outcomes for patients with chronic diseases, and reduce overall care costs.
Dietary and Supplement Strategies for the Prevention and Treatment of Metabolic Syndrome
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) afflicts about 20-30 % of the global population, and is increasing in prevalence and incidence. MetS is linked to an unhealthy lifestyle (e.g. low physical activity and unbalanced and western-style diets), which leads to a low-grade inflammatory state and an increase in oxidative stress, due to an unbalanced ratio of pro-oxidants and antioxidant species in the human body. This low-grade inflammatory state triggers cytokine hypersecretion and eventually leads to insulin resistance which aggravates the major components of this syndrome such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, and abdominal obesity in a vicious cycle. This is a critical clinical problem because it leads the patient to have a greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes with progression to cerebrovascular and endothelial pathologies.
Ciências da Saúde: conceitos, práticas e relatos de experiência – Vol. 8
Este volume reúne estudos e experiências que refletem a diversidade dos desafios atuais nas ciências da saúde. A nutrição é abordada em vários contextos, como na prevenção da sarcopenia em idosos, no impacto da alimentação na microbiota intestinal e na saúde feminina, e nos efeitos a longo prazo da má alimentação infantil. Questões sobre obesidade, compulsão alimentar e a influência das redes sociais na anorexia nervosa e na autoimagem também são discutidas. Doenças crônicas e infecciosas são exploradas com foco na prevenção e manejo da doença renal crônica, na resposta imunológica pós-infecção por Chikungunya e no tratamento de hemopatias malignas como linfom...
Test Equating, Scaling, and Linking
By providing an introduction to test equating which both discusses the most frequently used equating methodologies and covering many of the practical issues involved, this volume expands upon the coverage of the first edition by providing a new chapter on test scaling and a second on test linking.
