Abstract:
Nutritional deficiencies are estimated to affect at least one third of the world’s population. Although they are most common in developing countries, they are also found in the developed world where they often occur in the setting of alcoholism, eating disorders, post bariatric surgery, and malabsorptive disorders. Neurologic manifestations of vitamin deficiencies are varied, reflecting the diversity of biochemical activity of vitamins throughout the nervous system. Here the neurological manifestations of common vitamin deficiencies are examoned, beginning with a discussion of relevant biochemistry and pathophysiology of each respective vitamin. Several micronutrients are included in the tables within this chapter.

Abstract:
Dietary intolerance and poor oral intake account for a disproportionate number of emergency department visits and readmissions after bariatric surgery. Micronutrient, vitamin, and protein deficiencies can occur after both malabsorptive and restrictive weight-loss operations, and they are best mitigated against by conscientious preoperative counseling and vigilance in follow-up. Routine vitamin supplementation can prevent the need for unnecessary laboratory testing, while symptoms of dumping syndrome can frequently be managed with dietary and behavioral modification alone. Alternative enteral feeding access for alimentary supplementation can be safely performed surgically or with assistance by interventional radiology, and should be considered in the management of perforation, early anastomotic leak, surgical revision, or patients with refractory malnourishment.

Full text
Abstract:
Decreased nutrient intake, increased body requirements, and/or altered nutrient utilization are frequently combined in critically-ill patients. The initial nutritional status and the extent of the disease-related catabolism are the main risk factors for nutrition- related complications. Many complications are related to protein energy malnutrition, which is frequent in the ICU setting. Assessing nutritional status pursues several different goals. Nutritional assessment is required for patients presenting with clinical evidence of malnutrition, with chronic diseases, with acute conditions accompanied by a high catabolic rate, and elderly patients. Recording the patient’s history, nutrient intake, and physical examination, and subjective global assessment allows classification of nutritional status. All the traditional markers of malnutrition, anthropometric measurements and plasma proteins, lose their specificity in the sick adult as each may be affected by a number of non-nutritional factors. Muscle function evaluated by hand-grip strength in cooperative patients and serum albumin provide an objective risk assessment. Several nutritional indices have been validated in specific groups of patients to identify patients at risk of nutritionally-mediated complications and, therefore, the need for nutritional support. A strong suspicion remains the best way of uncovering potentially harmful nutritional deficiencies.

Abstract:
Routine assessment of nutritional status should be part of normal practice when seeing any patient. The purpose is to document objective nutritional parameters (e.g. anthropometry), identify nutritional deficiencies, and establish nutritional needs. Protein–energy malnutrition has many adverse consequences including growth failure (identified by reference to standard growth charts). Worldwide, malnutrition contributes to a third of deaths in children under 5 years of age, and one in nine people don’t have enough food to lead an active and healthy life. In developed countries, malnutrition complicates both acute and chronic illness with negative effects on outcomes. In clinical practice, a useful approach to nutritional assessment is to consider three elements: ‘what you are’ (i.e. body habitus—underweight for height; short for age; etc.), ‘what you can do’ (functional activity), and ‘what you eat’ (current nutritional intake).

Abstract:
Normal nutritional function requires a healthy diet. Healthy eating incorporates a variety of nutrients that are essential for energy expenditure, prevention of disease, and maintenance of normal physiological function. An unhealthy diet can result in malnutrition, and this contributes to illness and death throughout the world. The core principle of healthy eating is obtaining an adequate balance, and the diseases resulting from overnourishment differ greatly from those resulting from undernourishment. In the third world, diets tend to rely heavily on staple crops, and can be very seasonal. Energy sources are predominantly cereals, whereas meat and fish are limited. Malnutrition tends to occur from a lack of essential nutrients, leading to conditions such as vitamin deficiencies, kwashiorkor, and iodine deficiency syndromes. In first-world countries, people have more freedom to choose what they eat. Thus, diets tend to be high in fat and dense in energy. Obesity, diabetes, coronary heart disease, cancer, and hypertension are major contributors to morbidity and mortality. A healthy diet should contain adequate proportions of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, and trace elements. The intake of these constituents is sporadic, with meals constituting major boluses of potential energy. Energy expenditure, conversely, is continuous. The human body has, therefore, developed complex mechanisms directing nutrients into storage when in excess, and mobilizing these stores as they are needed, and it is essential that sufficient energy is always available to maintain the basal metabolic rate, which is the amount of energy expended while at rest in a neutrally temperate environment. This energy is sufficient only for the functioning of the vital organs, such as the heart, the lungs, the liver, the kidneys, and the CNS.

Abstract:
Foods common in our diet today, produced through modern agricultural methods and often processed, contain an inherently low ratio of nutrients in proportion to calories. The standards used to determine nutrient adequacy are flawed, especially considering the huge variations in individual nutrient needs. Nutritional deficiencies in the general population are much more common than generally recognized, and skilled nutritional supplementation is important for maintaining and optimizing health; therefore, expert use of nutritional supplements is a critical skill for integrative medicine doctors. This chapter will help the clinical practitioner become knowledgeable about the signs and symptoms of nutrient deficiencies, recognize the nutrients most useful for several chronic diseases, and prescribe the correct dosages and dosage forms needed by their patients.

Abstract:
A number of nutritional causes of peripheral neuropathy have been identified. Patients who have gastrointestinal disease or who have undergone bariatric surgery are at risk, although frequently the specific cause is not ascertained. Vitamin B12 and thiamine deficiencies are the most common causes in bariatric surgery patients. The classic clinical picture of Vitamin B12 deficiency is a myelopathy with a concomitant peripheral neuropathy. Thiamine deficiency is the classic triad of mental status changes, opthalmoplegia, and ataxia. Copper deficiency is often unrecognized. Its presentation can be similar to Vitamin B12 deficiency. It is important that bariatric surgery patients receive continual follow up of their nutritional status and adherence to vitamin supplementation. Alcohol may cause a peripheral neuropathy through nutritional deficiency or perhaps direct toxic effects. Other deficiency states are discussed.

Abstract:
The oral consumption of nutrition/dietary supplements is widespread in the general population and among sports people, both children and adults. Despite this, there is very little research on any aspect of dietary supplement consumption in child/youth athletes and translation of information from adult populations should be undertaken with great caution. Ethical considerations around the use of dietary supplements by child athletes are the same as those for the adult population, with the additional aspect of consideration of effects on growth and development. In spite of their popularity, it is likely that only a very small number of dietary supplements will have a beneficial effect on performance for child athletes who have no underlying nutritional deficiencies. Against this must be weighed the potential negative effects on health and performance and the possibility of inadvertent ingestion of a doping agent.

Abstract:
Kidney development includes the formation of nephrons, which ceases around the 36th week of gestation. At that time, around 900,000 nephrons are formed, but with a 10-fold variation (from 200,000 to over 2 million). Many factors have been described to influence the number of nephrons per individual, such as genetic variations, intrauterine growth and prematurity, maternal diseases and (nutritional) deficiencies, and drugs used during nephrogenesis. Counting nephrons is currently only possible ex vivo, even though magnetic resonance imaging techniques are getting to the stage that in vivo estimations using stereology (the gold standard methodology) can be expected to become available in the next decade. In the meantime, renal size is often used as a marker for nephron endowment.

Abstract:
This chapter summarizes the early postoperative and long-term complications of biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) procedures. Perioperative mortality for BPD-DS is currently around 0.1%, with an early complication rate of 7%. The standard follow-up required for the prevention of nutritional deficiencies as well as the management of short- and long-term complications specific to metabolic surgeries are also discussed. The data and clinical views expressed in this chapter are based to a large extent on the authors’ experience with 5,000 BPD-DS surgeries in our institution over the last 25 years, and which have been reported extensively in the literature. In our experience, severe protein malnutrition occurred in 10% patients, of whom 5% required readmission and 1.5% a surgical revision to correct the problem.

Full text
Abstract:
Esophageal cancer shows distinct geographic distributions, changing incidence rates, and primary risk factors when examined separately as squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Squamous cell carcinoma remains the dominant histologic type in many low- and middle-income countries and occurs frequently, while adenocarcinoma is classified as rare but predominates in Western countries. Tobacco and alcohol are the dominant risk factors for squamous cell carcinoma in Western countries, but not in high-incidence Asian populations, where hot beverages and specific nutritional deficiencies may be important. For adenocarcinoma, tobacco use is causal while alcoholic beverages are not. Rather, obesity and gastroesophageal reflux disease are the other dominant identified risk factors. Genetic predisposing factors and somatic mutations are also cell type specific. The differences in esophageal cancer incidence within and between countries, by sex and race, and in known risk factors suggest major strides in understanding the etiology of esophageal cancer is within reach.

Abstract:
The skin may be adversely affected by any serious medical illness, often as a secondary process related to infection, trauma, nutritional deficiencies, and other factors. Disease-specific skin involvement occurs commonly in some conditions, and is best characterized in cancer. Skin of the patient with advanced cancer is unique compared to other organs of the body. While the sequela of metastatic spread to internal organs often is replacement of normal tissue and resultant organ failure, widespread replacement of skin with a neoplasm is uncommon. Yet, even a local disruption of skin integrity can cause deterioration in the quality of life, debilitation, and even mortality. Other aspects of neoplastic disorders affecting the skin discussed in this chapter include accumulation of abnormally produced metabolites, adverse effects to treatment, and paraneoplastic syndromes. It is important to give dermatological aspects of disease their appropriate attention, because these can be the ones that may be dealt with efficiently and improve the patient’s quality of life.

Abstract:
Many haematological issues can complicate end-of-life care, including cytopenias and venous thromboembolism (VTE). Anaemia is very common and can significantly impact quality of life; causes include haemorrhage, iron deficiency, nutritional deficiencies, and bone marrow infiltration. Neutropenia from bone marrow failure as a result of disease infiltration or from chemotherapy effects can result in life-threatening infections. Finally, VTE is commonly seen in cancer patients as well as those who require prolonged hospitalization. Symptoms can cause discomfort, mortality is increased, and treatment is associated with major bleeding. Understanding the therapeutic options and their adverse side effects is essential in the management of these complex problems. Despite the presence of effective therapies, it is also important to realize that events such as febrile neutropenia and pulmonary embolism are often seen at the end of life and intervention may not always impact prognosis. The risks of intervention should be weighed against expected benefits when developing appropriate palliative care plans.

Abstract:
This book focuses on prevention and management of complications in bariatric surgery. The book will serve as a practical guide for healthcare providers, including bariatric and general surgeons, primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, cardiologists, gastroenterologists, anesthesiologists, psychologists, and dietitians. Chapters describing surgical management of complications should be of special interest to emergency department doctors and surgeons. The book covers most aspects of typical and atypical problems and can be used as a study guide for fellows, residents, and medical students. The text provides a comprehensive overview in four sections: 1. Standards and guidelines for perioperative care of the bariatric patient. 2. Perioperative complications. 3. Procedure-specific complications. 4. Economic and legal considerations. The 40 chapters were written by top experts in bariatric and metabolic surgery, including the faculty of the renowned Cleveland Clinic. Many chapters include high-quality illustrations and surgical case photographs. The discussions emphasize preoperative risk optimization, medical and psychological evaluation, and risk-scoring systems, including preoperative risk assessment tools developed as a result of extensive research involving thousands of patients. Attention is paid to very-high-risk patients undergoing bariatric surgery. A special section includes guidelines for appropriate operating room set-up as well as for anesthesia and recovery issues. Management of intestinal failure after bariatric surgery, including intestinal transplantation, is a unique contribution of this book. Common, historical, and new bariatric procedures are described in detail from the perspective of management of their specific complications. Postoperative complications, including infection, thromboembolism, nutritional deficiencies, and endocrinologic problems are addressed. Practical guidelines for medicolegal issues are also presented.

Abstract:
Although there is little disagreement on the magnitude and importance of alleviating malnutrition, its causation and control continue to be the subject of debate and research. Recent evidence suggests that many of the traditional food-based strategies to reduce malnutrition, such as food aid distribution programs, school feeding programs, and food stamps, as well as policies that intervene to affect the price of food such as subsidies and rationing schemes, have proven of limited effectiveness. One important reason is that the critical period of undernutrition is generally in utero and early life. Among the most vulnerable groups, particularly pregnant women and infants, the causes of malnutrition often have little to do with food access and availability. Instead, prenatal care, immunization programs, breastfeeding promotion, and generally raising the quality of child care and nurturing behaviors are paramount. Likewise, improving the sanitary and home environment, including interventions that enhance access to clean water and latrines and behaviors such as hand washing and boiling water, will contribute to reductions in infection and help break the cycle of disease and malnutrition. In the area of food-related interventions, among those that are critical to the production of improved health and nutritional outcomes are food supplementation and fortification schemes that address micronutrient deficiencies. At the same time, there is legitimate concern that misguided food interventions, particularly broad-based price subsidies, food stamps, and food aid may have a range of deleterious consequences. These range from contributing to the epidemic of obesity and related chronic disease, to having a negative impact on farmers and producer incentives and the functioning of food markets.

Abstract:
The aim of this chapter is to review nutrition, hormones, natural substances, and integrative aspects to men’s health specific to the geriatric population. This segment of the population is growing, and they are more active and want to remain so for as long as possible. Older men therefore are entitled to and demand healthy options and lifestyle education and interventions to meet their future goals. This chapter covers exercise, nutrition, and food recommendation for the healthy aging male. Topics include prostate health, sexuality, erectile dysfunction, and hormone deficiencies, specifically testosterone and DHEA. Recommendations are provided on bone health, sleep, balance, and mind–body intervention. A global approach to healthy aging is suggested when providing care for aging men.

Abstract:
The older population is challenging to treat for numerous reasons, including comorbid conditions and increased susceptibility to adverse drug reactions, limiting medical therapy. They are at increased risk for loneliness and depression, which strongly impacts their cardiovascular outcomes, and they also have different values, usually prioritizing quality of life over mortality objectives. Finally, the elderly are underrepresented in cardiovascular clinical trials, thus limiting the applicability of guideline recommendations. This chapter emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive assessment of individual circumstances when assessing cardiovascular health in the elderly population. The chapter focuses on the role of nutrition, resiliency, and exercise for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease.
