Surveys of patients, carers and other stakeholders have established the key ingredients of a highquality ED service, namely well-coordinated care delivered by a knowledgeable and specialist treatment team centred around the patient and their social support (Escobar-Koch, et al, 2010;van Furth, van der Meer, & Cowan, 2016;Hart & Wade, 2019;Nishizono-Maher, Escobar-Koch, & Ringwood, 2010).…”

“…In Germany, the average increase in diagnoses for one large insurer between 2011 and 2016 was 7.5% (https://www.aerzteblatt.de/nachrichten/ 94751/Essstoerungen-auf-dem-Vormarsch). Late detection and treatment delays are associated with poorer prognosis (Andres-Perpiña et al, 2020;Fernández-Aranda et al, 2020) and increased burden (Yárnoz-Esquíroz et al, 2019) and therefore improving awareness and early diagnosis and access to treatment may reduce the increase in severity illness which has been manifest in the UK in terms of increased bed use (Holland, Hall, Yeates, & Goldacre, 2016).…”
The aim of this paper is to consider how changes in service planning and delivery might improve the care pathways for adult anorexia nervosa. Although anorexia nervosa has a long history in Europe, its framing as a mental disorder is quite recent. The changing forms and increasing epidemiology of eating disorders has led to the expansion of specialised services. Although some services provide care over the entire clinical course, more often services are divided into those that care for children and adolescents or adults. The transition needs to be carefully managed as currently these services may have a different ethos and expectations. Services for adults have a broad range of diversity (diagnostic subtype, medical severity, comorbidity, stage of illness and psychosocial functioning) all of which impacts on prognosis. A tailored, approach to treatment planning could optimise the pathway. Facilitating early help seeking and rapid diagnosis in primary care and reducing specialised services waiting lists for assessment and treatment could be a form of secondary prevention. The use of precision models and /or continuous outcome monitoring might reduce the third of patients who require more intensive care by applying augmentation strategies. Finally, gains from intensive care might be sustained by relapse prevention interventions and community support to bridgeThis is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.

“…Sarcopenia is recognized as a nutrition-related condition that may be related to the aging process (primary sarcopenia); however, it may also result from pathogenic mechanisms (secondary sarcopenia) that are disease-related, activity-related, or nutrition-related [1]. This all leads to poor outcomes in the health, quality of life, morbidity, and mortality of patients, accompanied by a significant increase in healthcare costs [11,[186][187][188]. For this reason, early detection must be a systematic objective pursued as soon as the relationship is established between the social or the healthcare system and the individual [189,190], as adequate nutritional intervention is shown to reduce mortality and complications in hospitalized patients [191].…”

“…An appropriate nutritional intervention, tailored to the individual needs of patients identified as malnourished or at nutritional risk, should be implemented. Unfortunately, although the need for this process is fully acknowledged, it is not systematically implemented [11]; 21,000 patients from 325 hospitals in 25 European countries are included in a study by the "NutriDay" survey, with the results showing that only 52% (ranged between 21% and 73%) of the hospitals in the different regions have a detection routine [12]. Similar results are obtained in a clinical audit to establish the gap between practice and best practice in activities related to nutritional screening and assessment in New South Wales hospitals [13].…”
Malnutrition is a serious problem with a negative impact on the quality of life and the evolution of patients, contributing to an increase in morbidity, length of hospital stay, mortality, and health spending. Early identification is fundamental to implement the necessary therapeutic actions, involving adequate nutritional support to prevent or reverse malnutrition. This review presents two complementary methods of fighting malnutrition: nutritional screening and nutritional assessment. Nutritional risk screening is conducted using simple, quick-to-perform tools, and is the first line of action in detecting at-risk patients. It should be implemented systematically and periodically on admission to hospital or residential care, as well as on an outpatient basis for patients with chronic conditions. Once patients with a nutritional risk are detected, they should undergo a more detailed nutritional assessment to identify and quantify the type and degree of malnutrition. This should include health history and clinical examination, dietary history, anthropometric measurements, evaluation of the degree of aggression determined by the disease, functional assessment, and, whenever possible, some method of measuring body composition.
“…The increase in hospitalization rates is one of the main consequences of malnutrition, leading to increased health expenditures [ 19 , 20 ]; however, only the FINES study, which was conducted with a population undergoing dialysis, showed that oral supplementation improved serum albumin and prealbumin levels and hospitalization rates in dialysis patients [ 17 ]. We found no study that evaluated these data in pre-dialysis patients; our study is, therefore, the first that we know of to link lower hospitalization rates to individualized nutritional interventions.…”
Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) are at high risk of malnutrition and subsequent related mortality when starting dialysis. However, there have been few clinical studies on the effect of nutritional interventions on long-term patient survival. A 2-year longitudinal study was conducted from January 2012 to December 2016. A total of 186 patients with non-dialysis ESKD started the nutritional education program (NEP), and 169 completed it. A total of 128 patients participated in a NEP over 6 months (personalized diet, education and oral supplementation, if needed). The control group (n = 45) underwent no specific nutritional intervention. The hospitalization rate was significantly lower for the patients with NEP (13.7%) compared with the control patients (26.7%) (p = 0.004). The mortality odds ratio for the patients who did not receive NEP was 2.883 (95% CI 0.993–8.3365, p = 0.051). The multivariate analysis showed an independent association between mortality and age (OR, 1.103; 95% CI 1.041–1.169; p = 0.001) and between mortality and the female sex (OR, 3.332; 95% CI 1.054–10.535; p = 0.040) but not between mortality and those with NEP (p = 0.051). Individualized nutrition education has long-term positive effects on nutritional status, reduces hospital admissions and increases survival among patients with advanced CKD who are starting dialysis programs.
