ABSTRACT

This study aimed to evaluate available volume status assessment tools in nephrotic syndrome (NS). Sixty children with INS were subdivided into hypovolemic and nonhypovolemic groups based on fractional excretion of sodium (FeNa%); all were studied for inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVCCI), plasma atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), and body composition monitor (BCM). Forty-four patients had nonhypovolemic and 16 had hypovolemic states. ANP did not difer between both groups. IVCCI was higher in hypovolemic group (p<0.001) with sensitivity 87.5% and specifcity 81.8% for hypovolemia detection, while BCM overhydration (BCM-OH) values were higher in nonhypovolemic group (p=0.04) with sensitivity=68.2% and specifcity=75% for detection of hypervolemia. FeNa% showed negative correlation with IVCCI (r= ?0.578, p<0.001) and positive correlation with BCM-OH (r=0.33, p=0.018), while FeNa% showed nonsignifcant correlation to ANP concentration. IVCCI is a reliable tool for evaluating volume status in NS and is superior to BCM.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Introduction: Nutritional status and unhealthy dietary habits may have an influence on Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) course and activity. Objectives: This work aimed to determine the nutritional status and dietary intake of SLE patients and its relation to disease activity. Material and methods: Sixty-five SLE patients were recruited from Kasr Alainy outpatient clinic from October 2017 to December 2017 in a cross-sectional study. Data were collected using a structured interview questionnaire including inquiry about the socioeconomic status, nutritional status using anthropometric measurements, semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaires (FFQ), and hemoglobin level measurement. Disease activity level was assessed using SLE disease activity index (SLE-DAI). Results: The median age of the enrolled female patients was 30.0 (24.0-37.0), with median disease duration of 3.0 years (1.0-9.0). BMI assessment revealed that more than three quarters of SLE patients were overweight and obese. The semi-quantitative FFQ revealed a decreased consumption of fresh fruit, vegetables, milk and other dairy products and an increased intake of fats and oils. Disease activity (SLE-DAI) correlated with increased BMI (r = 0.299, p = 0.016), body weight (r = 0.276, p = 0.026), and disease duration (r = 0.246, p = 0.049). Conclusions: Inadequate nutrient intake and the high percentage of overweight and obesity among SLE patients with excessive consumption of lipids and low intake of fibers were revealed. Also, disease activity (SLE-DAI) correlated with increased BMI.


RESUMEN Introducción: El estado nutricional y los hábitos alimenticios poco saludables pueden influir en el curso y la actividad del lupus eritematoso sistémico (LES). Objetivos: Este trabajo tuvo como objetivo determinar el estado nutricional y la ingesta dietética de los pacientes con LES y su relación con la actividad de la enfermedad. Material y métodos: Se reclutaron 65 pacientes con LES de la clínica ambulatoria de Kasr Alainy desde octubre de 2017 hasta diciembre de 2017 en un estudio transversal. Los datos se recopilaron mediante un cuestionario de entrevista estructurada que incluía una investigación sobre el estado socioeconómico, el estado nutricional mediante mediciones antropométricas, los cuestionarios de frecuencia de alimentos semicuantitativos (FFQ) y la medición del nivel de hemoglobina. El nivel de actividad de la enfermedad se evaluó utilizando el índice de actividad de la enfermedad del LES (LES-DAI). Resultados: La mediana de edad de las pacientes reclutadas fue de 30,0 (24,0-37,0) años, con una duración media de la enfermedad de 3,0 años (1,0-9,0). La evaluación del índice de masa corporal (IMC) reveló que más de las tres cuartas partes de las pacientes con LES tenían sobrepeso y eran obesas. La FFQ semicuantitativa reveló una disminución del consumo de frutas frescas, verduras, leche y otros productos lácteos, y una mayor ingesta de grasas y aceites. El índice del LES-DAI se correlacionó con un aumento del IMC (r= 0,299; p = 0,016), peso corporal (r = 0,276; p = 0,026) y duración de la enfermedad (r = 0,246; p = 0,049). Conclusiones: Se reveló una ingesta inadecuada de nutrientes y el alto porcentaje de sobrepeso y obesidad entre los pacientes con LES con un consumo excesivo de lípidos y una baja ingesta de fibras. Además, la actividad de la enfermedad (LES-DAI) se correlacionó con un aumento del IMC.
