- Nutrient‐enriched formula versus standard formula for preterm infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jul-2019
Preterm infants may accumulate nutrient deficits leading to extrauterine growth restriction. Feeding preterm infants with nutrient-enriched rather than standard formula might increase nutrient accretion and growth rates and might improve neurodevelopmenta
- Nutrient‐enriched formula versus standard formula for preterm infants following hospital discharge
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Dec-2016
Preterm infants are often growth-restricted at hospital discharge. Feeding nutrient-enriched formula rather than standard formula to infants after hospital discharge might facilitate 'catch-up' growth and might improve development.
- Nutrition support for bone marrow transplant patients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Mar-2017
This is an update of the original Cochrane review published in Issue 2, 2002. Bone marrow transplantation involves administration of toxic chemotherapy and infusion of marrow cells. After treatment, patients can develop poor appetite, mucositis and gastro
- Nutrition support in hospitalised adults at nutritional risk
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-May-2017
The prevalence of disease-related malnutrition in Western European hospitals is estimated to be about 30%. There is no consensus whether poor nutritional status causes poorer clinical outcome or if it is merely associated with it. The intention with all f
- Nutritional advice for improving outcomes in multiple pregnancies
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Nov-2015
Multiple pregnancies are associated with higher rates of perinatal mortality and morbidity than singleton pregnancies, mainly due to an increased risk of preterm birth. Because fetal outcome is best at a particular range of maternal weight gain, it has be
- Nutritional advice in pregnancy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Oct-2008
Background pending.
- Nutritional interventions for liver-transplanted patients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Jul-2012
Malnutrition is a common problem for patients waiting for orthotopic liver transplantation and a risk factor for post-transplant morbidity. The decision to initiate enteral or parenteral nutrition, to which patients and at which time, is still debated. Th
- Nutritional interventions for preventing and treating pressure ulcers
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Jun-2014
Pressure ulcers affect approximately 10% of people in hospitals and older people are at highest risk. A correlation between inadequate nutritional intake and the development of pressure ulcers has been suggested by several studies, but the results have be
- Nutritional interventions for preventing stunting in children (birth to 59 months) living in urban slums in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMIC)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jun-2019
Nutritional interventions to prevent stunting of infants and young children are most often applied in rural areas in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). Few interventions are focused on urban slums. The literature needs a systematic assessment, as in
- Nutritional interventions for reducing gastrointestinal toxicity in adults undergoing radical pelvic radiotherapy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 14-Nov-2013
Across the developed world, an estimated 150,000 to 300,000 people are treated annually with pelvic radiotherapy and 80% will develop gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms during treatment. Acute GI symptoms are associated with a greater risk of chronic, often d
- Nutritional interventions for reducing morbidity and mortality in people with HIV
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Feb-2013
Adequate nutrition is important for optimal immune and metabolic function. Dietary support may, therefore, improve clinical outcomes in HIV-infected individuals by reducing the incidence of HIV-associated complications and attenuating progression of HIV d
- Nutritional interventions for survivors of childhood cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Aug-2016
Childhood cancer survivors are at a higher risk of developing health conditions such as osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease than their peers. Health-promoting behaviour, such as consuming a healthy diet, could lessen the impact of these chronic issue
- Nutritional interventions for treating foot ulcers in people with diabetes
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jul-2020
Foot ulcers in people with diabetes are non-healing, or poorly healing, partial, or full-thickness wounds below the ankle. These ulcers are common, expensive to manage and cause significant morbidity and mortality. The presence of a wound has an impact on
- Nutritional labelling for healthier food or non‐alcoholic drink purchasing and consumption
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Feb-2018
Nutritional labelling is advocated as a means to promote healthier food purchasing and consumption, including lower energy intake. Internationally, many different nutritional labelling schemes have been introduced. There is no consensus on whether such la
- Nutritional screening for improving professional practice for patient outcomes in hospital and primary care settings
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Jun-2013
Given the prevalence of under-nutrition and reports of inadequate nutritional management of patients in hospitals and the community, nutritional screening may play a role in reducing the risks of malnutrition. Screening programmes can invoke costs to heal
- Nutritional supplementation for hip fracture aftercare in older people
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Nov-2016
Older people with hip fractures are often malnourished at the time of fracture, and subsequently have poor food intake. This is an update of a Cochrane review first published in 2000, and previously updated in 2010.
- Nutritional supplementation for nonalcohol‐related fatty liver disease: a network meta‐analysis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Jul-2021
The prevalence of non-alcohol-related fatty liver disease (NAFLD) varies between 19% and 33% in different populations. NAFLD decreases life expectancy and increases risks of liver cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and the requirement for liver transpla
- Nutritional supplementation for stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Nov-2012
Individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and low body weight have impaired pulmonary status, reduced diaphragmatic mass, lower exercise capacity and higher mortality than those who are adequately nourished. Nutritional support may be
- Nutritional supplements for patients being treated for active visceral leishmaniasis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Mar-2018
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a disease caused by a parasite, which can lead to death if untreated. Poor nutritional status hastens the progression of VL infection, and VL worsens malnutrition status. Malnutrition is one of the poor prognostic factors id
- Nutritional supplements for people being treated for active tuberculosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Jun-2016
Tuberculosis and malnutrition are linked in a complex relationship. Tuberculosis may cause undernutrition through increased metabolic demands and decreased intake, and nutritional deficiencies may worsen the disease, or delay recovery by depressing import
