Objective. To evaluate the relationship between body dissatisfaction, self-esteem, self-efficacy, and changes in body mass index (BMI) and body fat in 40 obese African American (AA) preadolescent females, aged 7 to 12 years, participating in a weight-loss intervention. Methods. The 18-week intervention consisted of 2 phases: a 6-week eucaloric phase and a 12-week hypocaloric phase, in which all food was provided. The Contour Drawing Rating Scale adapted for use in AA populations assessed body dissatisfaction. Self-efficacy was assessed by the Weight Efficacy Life-Style Questionnaire and self-esteem by Rosenberg’s Self-Esteem Scale. Total body fat and trunk fat were assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Results. Findings indicated that body dissatisfaction was positively associated with trunk fat at 6 weeks and BMI at the end of the intervention, and a higher BMI was associated with a larger perceived body figure, though these associations varied over the course of the study. Conclusions and Implic...

Aim. To study longitudinal macronutrient concentrations of colostrum and mature human milk (HM) and test the hypothesis that colostrum concentration of a given macronutrient might predict the concentration of this macronutrient in mature milk. Methods. We collected samples of expressed HM obtained from mothers of full-term infants. Each mother contributed 2 samples of HM—the first during 72 hours after labor (colostrum) and the second after 14 days. Macronutrient contents of the samples were measured using infrared transmission spectroscopy. Results. In all, 57 women were recruited. Only 44 of them gave both colostrum and 14-day samples. The energy, fat, and carbohydrate content of mature milk was significantly higher than that in colostrum, whereas the opposite was found for protein content. There was no significant relationship between maternal weight for height and protein, fat, or lactose content at any stage. Energy, fat, and protein content in colostrum did not correlate with values in mature milk. ...

Schools experience barriers when implementing wellness policies, and there is a dearth of research detailing how district wellness policies are implemented at the school level. Wellness councils were established in 7 elementary schools in Harlem and Washington Heights, New York City (NYC), to help these schools implement the NYC district wellness policy. Data on 4 wellness council process indicators and wellness council self-evaluation scores were correlated with obesity prevention process outcomes using Kendall tau correlations. An average of 8.9 (standard deviation = 0.7) wellness council meetings were held per school throughout the 10-month academic year. The average attendance at each meeting ranged from 7.1 to 15.2 members. There was a positive relationship between wellness council attendance and the number of participant encounters at staff physical activity events (r = .71, P = .02). Higher self-evaluation scores on staff wellness initiatives were associated with more student nutrition encounters (...
学校在实施健康政策时遇到障碍,并且缺乏详细说明学区健康政策如何在学校层面实施的研究。在纽约市哈莱姆区和华盛顿高地的7所小学建立了健康委员会,以帮助这些学校实施纽约市地区健康政策。4个健康委员会过程指标和健康委员会自我评价得分的数据与肥胖预防过程结果使用肯德尔tau相关。在为期10个月的学年中,每所学校平均召开8.9次(标准差= 0.7)健康委员会会议。每次会议的平均出席人数在7.1至15.2人之间。健康委员会的出席率与员工体育活动的参与者接触次数呈正相关(r = 0.71, P = 0.02)。员工健康计划的自我评价得分越高,学生的营养接触就越多(……)

Background. Renal injury, proteinuria, and hypertension, are consequences of congenital solitary functioning kidney (CSFK). Renal injury appears around 10 years of age and requires dialysis by the age of 30 years. Low protein intake attenuated renal damage in animal experimental models, uninephrectomized patients, and kidney transplant donors and recipients. Low salt intake facilitates blood pressure control. Objective. Relevant data concerning CSFK patients have not been described so far. We decided to examine long-term preventing effects of protein restriction and low-salt diet on proteinuria, kidney function, and hypertension, in this distinct polulation. Methods. Twenty-eight children with CSFK were included in a prospective observational exposure series. Following parents’ agreement, protein and salt restriction—0.85 × recommended daily allowance (RDA)—was started under dietitian supervision. Compliance verification was performed by (a) monitoring urinary urea nitrogen and body weight, (b) measuring ...
