Background: Vitamin B12 (VB12) is an essential biomarker for population health, and its deficiency status leads to severe health burdens. A comprehensive and updated investigation on the distribution of VB12 levels and status is critically needed to address public health and clinical concerns. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using data obtained from the Precision Medical Program, which encompassed 14 provinces in China. Specific criteria based on previously published cutoffs and our study population’s characteristics are adopted to define B12 deficiency. Biochemical B12 deficiency was identified with circulating VB12 levels <148 pmol/L. Metabolic B12 deficiency was determined with circulating VB12 levels ≥148 and ≤258 pmol/L with concomitant elevated plasma total homocysteine (tHcy ≥14 µmol/L). Normal B12 status included VB12 levels >258 pmol/L or VB12 levels ranging from 148 to 258 pmol/L with tHcy levels below 14 µmol/L. VB12 levels and status were analyzed and stratified by age, sex, and geographical region. Results: This study enrolled a total of 2174 hypertensive adults, with a mean age of 63.0 years (±13.4) and 45.8% female. The overall mean VB12 levels were 322.3 (85.0) pmol/L. The prevalence rates of B12 biochemical deficiency, metabolic deficiency, metabolic deficiency with excluded renal dysfunction, and adequate status were 0.7%, 13.3%, 11.5%, and 85.9%, respectively. Females exhibited higher VB12 levels than males, with a β value of 19.72 (95% confidence interval [CI], 10.59–28.84) in the multivariate model. The southern population demonstrated higher VB12 levels than people from the north, with a β value of −18.14 (95% CI, −25.72 to −10.76). Males had a higher prevalence of metabolic VB12 deficiency in comparison to females (15.8% vs. 10.4%). Conclusions: Our study revealed that Chinese hypertensive adults exhibit relatively higher levels of VB12. Additionally, while biochemical B12 deficiency is uncommon, a noteworthy proportion of individuals were affected by metabolic VB12 deficiency. This study has important implications for nutritional counseling and vitamin B supplement strategies.

Background: The relationship of different serum forms of folate with the prevalence of hypertension remains uncertain. We aim to examine the association of several folate forms (5-methyltetrahydrofolate [5-mTHF], unmetabolized folic acid [UMFA], and MeFox [an oxidation product of 5-mTHF]) with the prevalence of hypertension. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 19,237 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011–2018. Hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg, or a self-reported diagnosis of hypertension by a physician, or current anti-hypertensive treatment. Results: The prevalence of hypertension was 39.3%. When serum 5-mTHF was assessed as quartiles, a significantly lower prevalence of hypertension was found in participants in quartiles 3 to 4 (≥34.0 nmol/L) (odds ratio [OR], 0.86; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.76–0.97), compared with those in quartiles 1 to 2. When serum UMFA was assessed as quartiles, a significantly higher prevalence of hypertension was found in participants in quartile 4 (≥1.0 nmol/L) (OR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.03–1.31), compared with those in quartiles 1 to 3. When serum MeFox was assessed as quartiles, a significantly higher prevalence of hypertension was found in participants in quartiles 3 to 4 (≥1.4 nmol/L) (OR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.06–1.34), compared with those in quartiles 1 to 2. Conclusions: Higher serum 5-mTHF levels were associated with a lower prevalence of hypertension, while higher serum UMFA and MeFox levels were associated with a higher prevalence of hypertension. If further confirmed, our findings highlight the importance of monitoring different serum forms of folate and may help guide future clinical trials and nutritional guidelines on folic acid supplementation for prevention of hypertension.

Background: Epidemiological studies on the association between levels of plasma vitamin E and first stroke risk are inconclusive. Methods: A nested, case–control study was conducted utilizing data on 115,337 hypertensive patients from the H-type Hypertension and Stroke Prevention and Control Project. The current analysis comprised 2193 cases of first stroke and 2193 controls matched for age, sex, and study site. Results: The mean plasma concentration of vitamin E was 12.37 (3.61) μg/mL. The smoothing curve showed a linear correlation between plasma vitamin E levels and the risk of the first stroke. Hypertensive patients with plasma vitamin E levels ≥14.1 μg/mL (Q4) had an increased risk of first stroke (adjusted odds ratios [OR]: 1.18; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01, 1.37) compared with those with plasma vitamin E < 14.1 μg/mL (Q1–Q3). Sub-group analysis revealed that the relationship between plasma vitamin E (≥14.1.1 vs. P interaction = 0.035). Conclusions: This study suggests that higher levels of plasma vitamin E are associated with an elevated risk of first stroke among Chinese hypertensive patients.
背景：关于血浆维生素 E 水平与首次中风风险之间关系的流行病学研究尚无定论。研究方法：利用 H 型高血压与脑卒中预防和控制项目中 115,337 名高血压患者的数据进行了一项巢式病例对照研究。目前的分析包括 2193 例首次中风病例和 2193 例年龄、性别和研究地点匹配的对照组。研究结果维生素 E 的平均血浆浓度为 12.37 (3.61) μg/mL。平滑曲线显示，血浆维生素 E 水平与首次中风风险呈线性相关。与血浆维生素 E < 14.1 μg/mL（Q1-Q3）的患者相比，血浆维生素 E 水平≥14.1 μg/mL（Q4）的高血压患者首次中风的风险增加（调整后的几率比[OR]：1.18；95% 置信区间[CI]：1.01，1.37）。分组分析显示，血浆维生素 E（≥14.1.1 vs. P交互作用 = 0.035）与血浆维生素 E（≥14.1.1 vs. P交互作用 = 0.035）之间存在关系。结论：本研究表明，血浆维生素 E 水平越高，中国高血压患者首次中风的风险越高。

Background: The use of nutrition in cancer treatment has become increasingly widespread in recent decades, and the current stage of nutritional support and assessment has had a positive effect on reducing the side effects of cancer treatment. Based on the analysis of international literature on “tumor nutrition,” we identified the current status of research, research hotspots, and frontiers and provided a theoretical basis and reference for the development of related research in China. This study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the global literature published from 2013 to 2022 to assess the current research directions. Methods: The Web of Science core collection was searched from 2013 to 2022. The VOSviewer 1.6.19 and CiteSpace 6.2.2 were adopted to conduct the analysis. Results: Following the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 28,245 documents were collected. The number of articles issued annually was fluctuatingly increasing. These articles were written by 124,412 authors from 20,162 affiliations in 166 countries or regions and were published in 3110 journals. The leading authors were Susan M. Gapstur, Heiner Boeing, and Hanping Shi. All publications were taken from 166 countries/regions and 20,162 organizations. The most productive countries were the United States and China. The most active institutions were the Harvard Medical School and University of Alberta. A total of 3110 journals contributed to this field, and the leading journals were Nutrients and Clinical Nutrition. The important author keywords occurred most frequently were cancer, nutrition, risk, survival, mortality, and sarcopenia. Conclusions: This study provided the dynamics and progress of nutrition research field. The studies about nutrition are booming. The current growth trend predicts that the global field of oncology nutrition will still increase. In addition to the traditional research on tumor nutrition, the development of interdisciplinary research should be promoted. Every country should strengthen international cooperation to enhance the influence of research results and solve many common scientific problems in the field of tumor nutrition research in multiple dimensions.

Background: This study aims to systematically review the efficacy of early enteral nutrition for mechanically ventilated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. Methods: Relevant clinical studies published from December 2019 to May 2023 were retrieved from the electronic databases. The primary outcome was overall mortality. The secondary outcomes included length of hospitalization, intensive care unit length of stay, and duration of mechanical ventilation. The quality of enrolled studies was evaluated using the ROBINS-I tool. The meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. Results: A total of 1229 potentially relevant titles and abstracts were screened. After reviewing, five studies enrolling 2054 patients were eventually included. All five articles were retrospective cohort studies. There was no significant difference in overall mortality (relative risk = 0.92, 95% confidence interval [0.74,1.15], P = 0.48) between the early enteral nutrition group and the late enteral nutrition group. The patients who received early enteral nutrition tend to stay in the hospital for less time but the difference is not significant (mean difference = −4.82, 95% confidence interval [−11.47, 1.83], P = 0.16). The mechanical ventilation days of patients who received early enteral nutrition were shortened (mean difference = −0.70, 95% confidence interval [−0.99, −0.40], P < 0.00001). Conclusion: Early enteral nutrition helps to wean patients from the ventilator, may reduce intensive care unit hospitalization, and help reach the feeding target of ventilated patients with COVID-19. Owing to the small number of included studies and the relatively low quality of study design, more rigorous, and large-scale clinical trials are urgently needed to verify above findings.

Background: Anthropometric measurements have been widely used as nutritional indicators (NIs) to evaluate the nutritional status of individuals and populations. However, there is limited research on the association between anthropometric measurements and sociodemographic factors in the Idoma ethnic group in Nigeria. This study aimed to examine the association between anthropometric measurements and sociodemographic factors among the Idoma ethnic group in Nigeria. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 617 individuals aged 11-19 years. Anthropometric measurements, including height, weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, and body mass index (BMI), were measured using standard procedures. Sociodemographic data, including age, gender, education level, occupation, and income, were collected using a structured questionnaire. Results: The results showed that the mean BMI of the participants was 25.2 ± 5.2 kg/m², with 7.9% of the participants classified as overweight and 7.4% as obese. The prevalence of underweight and wasting were 48% and 35.8%. Variables such as age-sex, number of siblings, birth order, and family members were found to be significantly associated with NIs by binary logistic regression analysis (P < 0.05). Conclusions: This study highlights the high prevalence of overweight and obesity among the Idoma ethnic group in Nigeria. Sociodemographic factors, including education level, occupation, and income, were found to be associated with NIs. These findings have important implications for the development of targeted interventions to improve the nutritional status of the Idoma ethnic group.

A brief narrative review of nutritional issues in stroke prevention is presented. Topics discussed include obesity, dietary cholesterol and saturated fat, harm from egg yolk and meat intake, metabolic B12 deficiency, B vitamins to lower homocysteine, salt intake, and diet. Persons at risk of stroke should avoid egg yolk and limit the intake of animal flesh, particularly red meat. They should consume a mainly vegetarian Mediterranean diet, and limit their intake of salt (sodium chloride) to ~ 2-3 grams per day or less. They should check their serum B12 and plasma total homocysteine, and treat them if abnormal, with methylcobalamin or hydroxocobalamin rather than cyanocobalamin.

Background: For patients with gastrointestinal cancer complicated with diabetes, carrying out more effective nutrition education is recommended. However, the current nutrition education protocol is ineffective, resulting in patients suffering from malnutrition and poor blood glucose control. The best education strategy for dietary behavior change in patients with gastrointestinal cancer complicated with diabetes is still unclear. Objective: This article aimed to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of IIFAR (initial check, information exchange, final accuracy check, and response) based nutrition education protocol in patients of gastrointestinal cancer complicated with diabetes. Method: A total of 80 patients with gastrointestinal cancer complicated with diabetes during chemotherapy were recruited from June 2021 to June 2022. They were randomly divided into control group and intervention group with 40 cases each. The control group received routine nutrition education. The intervention group received nutrition education based on the IIFAR regimen. The dietary structure, nutritional status, and blood glucose level before and after intervention were compared between the two groups. Result: The nutritional status and blood glucose control in the intervention group were better than those in the control group. Dietary surveys in the intervention group showed a healthier diet. Nutrition knowledge–attitude–behavior survey showed that the intervention group scored higher than the control group. Conclusion: Nutrition education based on the IIFAR program is feasible and effective for this population. In particular, IIFAR-based nutrition education during the active phase of patients’ cancer treatment provides health benefits. Further translational research is also needed to determine the feasibility, enablers, and barriers for clinicians embedding this approach into routine cancer survivorship care.
