Clinical efficacy of modified Kamikawa anastomosis in patients with laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy.

With the increasing incidence of proximal gastric cancer, laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy has been applied. However, reflux esophagitis often occurs after traditional esophagogastric anastomosis. In order to solve this problem, several methods of digestive tract reconstruction have emerged, but the most satisfying method remains to be discussed. Therefore, we modified traditional Kamikawa anastomosis to investigate the appropriate digestive tract reconstruction in laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy. To discuss the clinical efficacy of modified Kamikawa anastomosis in laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy. A retrospective case series was adopted. Clinicopathological data were collected from 26 patients who underwent laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy and modified Kamikawa anastomosis at our hospital from January 2020 to September 2022. The operation conditions, postoperative recovery, postoperative complications, and follow-up data were collected and analyzed. All the patients were successfully operated on without conversion to laparotomy. The duration of operation and digestive tract reconstruction were 203.500 (150-224) min and 87.500 (73-111) min, respectively. The intraoperative amount of bleeding was 20.500 mL ± 0.696 mL. The time of postoperative first flatus, the first postoperative fluid intake, and the postoperative length of stay were 2 (1-3) d, 4 (3-5) d, and 9 (8-10) d, respectively. All the patients were followed up for 12-23 months. The body mass index at 6 and 12 months after surgery were 22.577 kg/m2 ± 3.098 kg/m2 and 22.594 kg/m2 ± 3.207 kg/m2, respectively. The nutrition risk screening 2002 score, the patient-generated subjective global assessment score, and the gastroesophageal reflux disease scale score were good at 6 and 12 months after surgery. Reflux esophagitis and anastomotic stenosis were not observed in any of the patients during their 12-month postoperative gastroscopy or upper gastrointestinal tract visits. All the patients exhibited no tumor recurrence or metastasis. The modified Kamikawa anastomosis is safe and feasible for laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy and has good antireflux effects and nutritional status.

Nutritional interventional studies in patients with multiple sclerosis: a scoping review of the current clinical evidence.

A good nutritional status appears to slow down disease progression and ameliorate symptoms' intensity in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Up to date, there are several interventional studies, which have explored the potential beneficial effects of specific dietary patterns as well as specific bioactive nutrients against disease progression and symptomatology of MS patients. This is a thorough, scoping review, which aims to critically summarize and scrutinize the currently available clinical evidence of the potential beneficial effects of nutritional interventional studies against MS progression and symptomatology. This review was conducted to systematically map the research done in this area, as well as to identify gaps in knowledge. For this purpose, we thoroughly explored the most accurate scientific web databases, e.g., PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar to achieve the most relevant clinical human studies applying effective and characteristic keywords. There are currently several dietary patterns and specific bioactive nutrients that show promising results by slowing down disease progression and by improving MS symptoms. However, there are also certain conflicting results, while most of the existing studies enrolled a small number of MS patients. Nutritional interventions may exert substantial protective effects against MS progression and symptomatology. However, large, long-term, randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trials with a prospective design are strongly recommended to delineate whether such nutritional intervention may attenuate disease progression, and improve symptomatology in MS patients.

The Determinants of Dietary Diversity among Women of Reproductive Age in the Kolda Region in 2020

INTRODUCTION: The lack of dietary diversity among women of reproductive age (WRA) is a public health problem in Senegal, particularly in the southern regions. The good nutritional status of women is one of the factors in the fight against maternal mortality and thus promotes a healthy pregnancy. The aim of this study was to investigate the determinants of dietary diversity among WRA in the Kolda region.
 
 METHODS: The quantitative, descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study took place in January-February 2020 in the Kolda region. It covered 1231 women of reproductive age (15- 49 years) in the Kolda region. Data were collected at household level using a questionnaire administered after informed consent. Ordinal logistic regression was performed to identify factors associated with dietary diversity among WRA in the Kolda region.
 
 RESULTS: A total of 1,231 WRA were surveyed, of whom 59.5% were neither pregnant nor breastfeeding, 30.7% breastfeeding and 9.8% pregnant. The mean age of the women was 27.62 years, with a standard deviation of 7.2 years. The median age was 27. Most women surveyed lived in rural areas (72.1%) and 58.5% were uneducated. Taking classification into account, 44% of WRAs in the Kolda region had average dietary diversity, compared with 24.7% who had low diversity and 31.3% who had high diversity.
 
 Risk factors associated with dietary diversity in WRA after adjustment were living in an urban environment (OR=1.52 [1.29 ; 1.78]), breastfeeding (OR=1.43 [1.13 ; 1.82]), head of household with higher level of education (OR=2.59 [1.55 ; 4.41]), household income greater than or equal to minimum wage (OR=1.23 [1.04 ; 1.45]), existence of fruit trees in the household (OR=1.28 [1.06 ; 1.55]), the existence of funding or support for processing local produce (OR=1.56 [1.10 ; 2.22]), knowledge of micronutrient-rich foods (OR=1.39 [1.13 ; 1.71]), good level of knowledge of good nutritional practices (OR=1.61 [1.35 ; 1.92]), women's average level of information on good hygiene and care practices (OR=1.27 [1.08 ; 1.48 ]).
 
 CONCLUSION: the accessibility and availability of nutrient-rich foods, the level of education of the head of household, the household's standard of living, awareness-raising, access to financing and the empowerment of women all help to improve the dietary diversity of WRA. Consequently, in the fight against food insecurity and malnutrition, the synergy of actions across sectors such as health, agriculture, the economy and social development, in particular gender and women's empowerment, is paramount for good women's nutritional status.

Survey of the present health & nutritional status of Shompen tribe of Great Nicobar Island.

Shompens are one of the two mongoloid tribes of Nicobar district. There is little information about their recent health status since the last survey which was conducted in 1998. Hence, a comprehensive health and nutritional survey was conducted in March 2017 to assess the changes. The survey was carried out by a joint team of various organizations including the ICMR-Regional Medical Research Centre and Tribal Welfare and Health Department both located in Port Blair. A detailed health and nutrition survey of the Shompen community was planned by deputing a field research team. The survey included demographic data, anthropometric data, clinical examination, screening for the markers of infectious diseases, respiratory pathogens, tuberculosis and haemoglobinopathies. About half of the Shompen adults (both males and females) had a body mass index (BMI) of ≥23. However, Shompen children had a good nutritional status with no child suffering from undernutrition. As per BMI for age, none of the children <5 yr were under-nourished, while in the 5-17 yr group, 12 per cent of children were undernourished. Anaemia prevalence was about 48.3 per cent, with 54 per cent prevalence in females and 43.8 per cent in males. Fungal infection of the skin, acute respiratory infection and abdominal pain were the common morbidities observed. None had active pulmonary tuberculosis. Of 38 Shompens screened for IgG (immunoglobulin G) antibodies, 42.1 and 18.4 per cent were positive for measles and rubella, respectively. Seroprevalence of Leptospira was 35.5 per cent. The prevalence of hypertension was 13.2 per cent, whereas another 28.9 per cent were pre-hypertensive. The population structure of the Shompen is not skewed and under nutrition was not widely prevalent among the children of <5 yr. The other positive observations were the absence of malaria, filariasis and dengue. However, there was natural infection of measles and rubella. Fungal skin infection and intestinal parasitic infestations were widely prevalent. Although cardiovascular risk profile was low, there were signs of emerging risk of over-weight, hypertension and dyslipidaemia. These together with the high prevalence of smokeless tobacco use may have a serious effect on the cardiovascular disease susceptibility of the Shompen population in the future.
