“…Blood samples were obtained preoperatively. The detection limit of the prealbumin assay was 22 mg/dl (17); patients were divided into analytical groups with <22 mg/dl and ≥22 mg/dl. The detection limit of the albumin assay was 3.5 g/dl (18); patients were (Table 2).…”

The relationship between preoperative prealbumin and cancer survival has not been fully elucidated. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between preoperative nutritional conditions, including prealbumin and albumin concentrations, and the risk of recurrence in cases with operable colorectal carcinoma. One hundred fifty-eight patients who underwent elective colorectal resection were analyzed in this study. Of the eligible cases, 56 (35.4%) had decreased serum prealbumin and 15 (9.5%) had decreased serum albumin preoperatively. Among 158 cases in this study, 18 (11.4%) had disease recurrence. In the univariate analysis, the depth of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, lymphovascular invasion, serum albumin, prealbumin, and carcinoembryonic antigen were the factors significantly associated with disease recurrence. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that only serum albumin was a predictor of the recurrence; however, serum prealbumin lost its significance on multivariate analysis. Time to tumor recurrence by Kaplan-Meier curves significantly differed among patients with low serum albumin and prealbumin level. Our results suggest that prealbumin and albumin may be sensitive indicators of the risk of recurrent disease; however, low serum albumin levels are more useful than prealbumin in predicting short-term disease recurrence in operable colorectal cancer.

“…The role of physical activity in children with chronic illness may have an even more substantial and wideranging health impact-from improving cardiometabolic profiles to improving physical function and limiting long-term disability (16). For example, accurate determination of physical activity related energy expenditure could allow for the better clinical management of diseases such as Cystic Fibrosis or Duchene's muscular dystrophy where nutritional considerations and energy requirements play a critical role in health outcome (37,48). Further, the ability to accurately quantify physical activity dose (e.g.…”

The purpose of this study was to assess the criterion validity of existing accelerometer-based energy expenditure (EE) prediction equations among children with chronic conditions, and to develop new prediction equations. Children with congenital heart disease (CHD), cystic fibrosis (CF), dermatomyositis (JDM), juvenile arthritis (JA), inherited muscle disease (IMD), and hemophilia (HE) completed 7 tasks while EE was measured using indirect calorimetry with counts determined by accelerometer. Agreement between predicted EE and measured EE was assessed. Disease-specific equations and cut points were developed and cross-validated. In total, 196 subjects participated. One participant dropped out before testing due to time constraints, while 15 CHD, 32 CF, 31 JDM, 31 JA, 30 IMD, 28 HE, and 29 healthy controls completed the study. Agreement between predicted and measured EE varied across disease group and ranged from (ICC) .13–.46. Disease-specific prediction equations exhibited a range of results (ICC .62–.88) (SE 0.45–0.78). In conclusion, poor agreement was demonstrated using current prediction equations in children with chronic conditions. Disease-specific equations and cut points were developed.

“…In DMD patients, the resting energy expenditure is often reported. Some authors report that, in these patients, the resting energy expenditure is lower than in the control group and emphasize the need for longitudinal studies, in order to understand these changes with the progression of the disease 10 . On the contrary, to other authors 12 , the resting energy expenditure is higher in patients with DMD than in healthy children, and yet, this expenditure is lower in obese rather than in nonobese patients with DMD.…”

| This case study aimed to verify the model of Rose et al. 1 as a feasible to assess energy expenditure in gait of children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Three DMD patients aged 6, 7 and 8 years old participated of this study. It was obtained weight, height, leg length measurement (LLM), resting and gait heart rate (HR) held on as 55-meter oval circuit performed during a two-minute test at each speed. Energy expenditure was calculated using the HR. It was performed a descriptive analysis (average) and these were compared, individually, to normative data. The average gait speed of these three patients was similar to the normative data for slow speed and lower considering comfortable and fast speed. The energy expenditure to slow speed of the patients 2 and 3 was similar to the normality, and lowest for patient 1; at comfortable speed, the energy expenditure obtained for all patients was similar; at fast speed, the patients 1 and 2 presented similar to normal values, but the patient 3 presented higher energy expenditure. It was concluded that the energy expenditure evaluation using HR was easily executed in the clinical practice and it can help therapeutic choices. For patient 3, an aerobic training could be indicated and for the others, they could keep the routine assessments.
