“…This is where the role of intensive training and improving the skill of dietitians becomes crucial. Intensive training and continuous improving skills for dietitians can significantly contribute to improving their ability to accurately estimate portion sizes and make precise assessments [92,93]. The effect of training was also observed in this study, according to the results of the subgroup analysis based on the food exchange list subgroup (Table 59 and Table 60).…”

Advancements in technology have allowed for the development of applications for supporting the nutrition care process. The objectives of this study were to develop and validate a nutrition application incorporating the food and nutrtion databases, and to assess the satisfaction of dietitians toward the developed application. Seventy registered dietitians were recruited to evaluate two sets of the food photographs prepared based on Thai food exchange list (Thai FEL) and Thai food based dietary guideline (Thai FBDG) for three consecutive days. The participants estimated and calculated manually using calculators, following by using the application. The participants' satisfaction indicated acceptance (overall score = 4.43 ? 0.67) and positive impressions toward the application. Both food exchange lists based NDPro applcations resulted in a significant reduction in time usage (p < 0.01). Furthermore, the application could analyze the data accurately indicating its performance as acceptable in terms of reliability and stability. Additionally, the results of energy and macronutrient contents from the Thai FEL based application also significantly differed from those calculated manually (p < 0.05) with 5% difference in fat and 7 - 8% difference in carbohydrate and energy.� However, for the Thai FBDG based application, it was required to modify the representative values of some food groups for improving reliability.

“…Assignment of recording days is based on the day of the family’s first visit (Monday – Saturday). Standard techniques are used to improve accuracy of information recorded in the food logs [ 63 ]. Parents are instructed in record keeping techniques with the aid of food models, service ware, and utensils; and they are provided with a tool kit of calibrated utensils (i.e., measuring cups and spoons) which they take home and keep, as additional compensation.…”

Pacific Islands Cohort on Cardiometabolic Health Study: rationale and design

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background Pacific Islanders, including those residing in the US Affiliated Pacific Islands (USAPI), experience some of the highest mortality rates resulting from non-communicable diseases (NCDs) worldwide. The Pacific Island Health Officers’ Association declared a Regional State of Health Emergency in 2010 due to the epidemic of NCDs in the USAPI. Obesity, a known risk factor for NCDs, has become an epidemic among both children and adults in Micronesia and other parts of the USAPI. There is some recent information about overweight and obesity (OWOB) among young children in the USAPI, but there is no data looking at the relationship between children and their biological parents. The Pacific Islands Cohort on Cardiometabolic Health (PICCAH) Study aims to collect data on NCD lifestyle factors from two generations of families (n = 600 child-parent dyads or 1,200 participants) living in Guam, Pohnpei, and Palau. Methods The PICCAH Study is an epidemiological study using community-based convenience sampling to recruit participants in USAPI of Guam, Palau, and Pohnpei. The goal is to recruit participant dyads consisting of 1 child plus their biological parent in Guam (500 dyads or 1,000 participants), Pohnpei (50 dyads or 100 participants), and Palau (50 dyads or 100 participants). All participants are having the following information collected: demographic, health, and lifestyle information; anthropometry; diet; physical activity; sleep; acanthosis nigricans; blood pressure; and serum levels of fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin, glycated hemoglobin, total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, and HDL. Discussion The PICCAH Study is designed to establish the baseline of a generational epidemiologic cohort with an emphasis on cardiometabolic risk, and to better understand the extent of DM and CVD conditions and related risk factors of those living in the USAPI jurisdictions of Guam, Pohnpei, and Palau. This study also serves to further build research capacity in the underserved USAPI Region.
