RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Although mood disorders have been well characterized in Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, physical function and satisfaction in social roles have not yet been defined as independent domains. OBJECTIVE: The study aims to assess satisfaction in social roles and physical function alterations in an Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases population and identify associated characteristics. METHODS: Physical function and social roles satisfaction were evaluated through the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement System. Besides comparisons between groups, univariate and multivariable logistic regression were performed to identify independent predictors. RESULTS: Two hundred sixty-five Immune-mediated Inflammatory Diseases patients and 206 controls were recruited. Compared with controls, Inflammatory Bowel Diseases patients had impaired physical function (p<0.001), while Inflammatory Arthritis patients reported impairment in both domains (p<0.001, each). In the univariate logistic regression, gender, high school educational level, physical activity and occupation were positively associated with physical function and social role satisfaction (p<0.001; p=0.001; p<0.001; p=0.001 and p<0.001; p=0.012; p=0.008; p=0.004, respectively). Active disease and steroids were inversely associated with physical function and social roles satisfaction (p=0.033; p=0.022 and p=0.002; p=0.038, respectively). Further associations were found between age and physical function (p=0.002); biological treatment and ESR with social roles satisfaction (p<0.001; p=0.043; respectively). In the multivariable regression, gender remained associated with physical function (p<0.001) and social roles satisfaction (p=0.003). Negatively associated factors were biological treatment for satisfaction in social roles (p<0.001) and steroids for physical function (p=0.021) and social roles satisfaction (p=0.018). CONCLUSION: Immune-mediated Inflammatory diseases determine alterations in physical function and social life satisfaction. Gender and treatment are independent associated factors. Patient-Reported Outcomes should be considered in clinical management to define patients' real needs.

RESUMO

Background@#A growing number of functional foods have been proposed to reduce cholesterol levels and the Portfolio Diet, which includes a combination of plant sterols, fibres, nuts, and soy protein, reduces low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from 20% to 30% in individuals with hyperlipidaemia. In this pilot study, the aim was to investigate whether a Mediterranean Diet incorporating a new and simple combination of cholesterol-lowering foods, excluding soy and nuts (namely the Portfolio-Mediterranean Diet), would reduce LDL-C levels, in the short-term, better than a Mediterranean Diet plus a sterol-enriched yogurt or a Mediterranean Diet alone. @*Methods@#We retrospectively evaluated 24 individuals on a Portfolio-Mediterranean Diet and 48 matched individuals on a Mediterranean Diet with or without a sterol-enriched yogurt (24 each groups) as controls. @*Results@#At follow-up (after 48±12 days), we observed an LDL reduction of 21±4, 23±4, and 44±4 mg/dL in the Mediterranean Diet alone, Mediterranean Diet plus yogurt and Portfolio-Mediterranean Diet respectively (P<0.001). @*Conclusion@#A Portfolio-Mediterranean Diet, incorporating a new combination of functional foods such as oats or barley, plant sterols, chitosan, and green tea but not soy and nuts, may reduce LDL of 25% in the short term in individuals with hypercholesterolemia.
