    Applicability of the GLIM criteria for the diagnosis of malnutrition in older adults in the emergency ward: A pilot validation study
    (2021) FERNANDEZ, Shirley Steffany Munoz; GARCEZ, Flavia Barreto; ALENCAR, Julio Cesar Garcia de; CEDERHOLM, Tommy; APRAHAMIAN, Ivan; MORLEY, John Edward; SOUZA, Heraldo Possolo de; SILVA, Thiago Junqueira Avelino da; RIBEIRO, Sandra Maria Lima
    Background & aims: Acutely ill older adults are at higher risk of malnutrition. This study aimed to explore the applicability and accuracy of the GLIM criteria to diagnose malnutrition in acutely ill older adults in the emergency ward (EW). Methods: We performed a retrospective secondary analysis, of an ongoing cohort study, in 165 participants over 65 years of age admitted to the EW of a Brazilian university hospital. Nutrition assessment included anthropometry, the Simplified Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire (SNAQ), the Malnutrition Screening Tool (MST), and the Mini-Nutritional Assessment (MNA). We diagnosed malnutrition using GLIM criteria, defined by the parallel presence of at least one phenotypic [nonvolitional weight loss (WL), low BMI, low muscle mass (MM)] and one etiologic criterion [reduced food intake or assimilation (RFI), disease burden/inflammation]. We used the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and Cox and logistic regression for data analyses. Results: GLIM criteria, following the MNA-SF screening, classified 50.3% of participants as malnourished, 29.1% of them in a severe stage. Validation of the diagnosis using MNA-FF as a reference showed good accuracy (AUC = 0.84), and moderate sensitivity (76%) and specificity (75.1%). All phenotypic criteria combined with RFI showed the best metrics. Malnutrition showed a trend for an increased risk of transference to intensive care unit (OR = 2.08, 95% CI 0.99, 4.35), and severe malnutrition for in-hospital mortality (HR = 4.23, 95% CI 1.2, 14.9). Conclusion: GLIM criteria, following MNA-SF screening, appear to be a feasible approach to diagnose malnutrition in acutely ill older adults in the EW. Nonvolitional WL combined with RFI or acute inflammation were the best components identified and are easily accessible, allowing their potential use in clinical practice.

    Low-level laser therapy (808 nm) contributes to muscle regeneration and prevents fibrosis in rat tibialis anterior muscle after cryolesion
    (2013) ASSIS, Livia; MORETTI, Ana Iochabel Soares; ABRAHAO, Thalita Balsamo; SOUZA, Heraldo Possolo de; HAMBLIN, Michael R.; PARIZOTTO, Nivaldo Antonio
    Muscle regeneration is a complex phenomenon, involving replacement of damaged fibers by new muscle fibers. During this process, there is a tendency to form scar tissue or fibrosis by deposition of collagen that could be detrimental to muscle function. New therapies that could regulate fibrosis and favor muscle regeneration would be important for physical therapy. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been studied for clinical treatment of skeletal muscle injuries and disorders, even though the molecular and cellular mechanisms have not yet been clarified. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of LLLT on molecular markers involved in muscle fibrosis and regeneration after cryolesion of the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle in rats. Sixty Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: control, injured TA muscle without LLLT, injured TA muscle treated with LLLT. The injured region was irradiated daily for four consecutive days, starting immediately after the lesion using an AlGaAs laser (808 nm, 30 mW, 180 J/cm(2); 3.8 W/cm(2), 1.4 J). The animals were sacrificed on the fourth day after injury. LLLT significantly reduced the lesion percentage area in the injured muscle (p < 0.05), increased mRNA levels of the transcription factors MyoD and myogenin (p < 0.01) and the pro-angiogenic vascular endothelial growth factor (p < 0.01). Moreover, LLLT decreased the expression of the profibrotic transforming growth factor TGF-beta mRNA (p < 0.01) and reduced type I collagen deposition (p < 0.01). These results suggest that LLLT could be an effective therapeutic approach for promoting skeletal muscle regeneration while preventing tissue fibrosis after muscle injury.

    High-fat diet inhibits PGC-1 alpha suppressive effect on NF kappa B signaling in hepatocytes
    (2018) BARROSO, Wermerson Assuncao; VICTORINO, Vanessa Jacob; JEREMIAS, Isabela Casagrande; PETRONI, Ricardo Costa; ARIGA, Suely Kunimi Kubo; SALLES, Thiago A.; BARBEIRO, Denise Frediani; LIMA, Thais Martins de; SOUZA, Heraldo Possolo de
    The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 alpha (PGC-1 alpha) regulates the expression of genes implicated in fatty acid oxidation and oxidative phosphorylation. Its role in liver steatosis is well established, since mice with liver-specific deletion of PGC-1 alpha exhibit lipid accumulation and high-fat diet reduces hepatic PGC-1 alpha expression in mice. In this study, we investigated the role of PGC-1 alpha in the inflammatory changes observed in steatohepatitis induced by high-fat diet. C57black/6 mice were fed a high-fat diet containing 30% fat for 10 weeks. After euthanasia, liver morphology was examined by HE staining and inflammation was determined by IL-6, TNF-alpha, and IL-1 beta quantification. Liver gene expression of PGC-1 isoforms was evaluated by real-time PCR and p65 NF kappa B nuclear translocation by Western blotting. HepG2 cells were treated with linoleic acid overload for 72 h to create an in vitro model of steatohepatitis. RNA interference (RNAi) was used to evaluate the involvement of PGC-1 alpha on inflammatory mediators' production by hepatocytes. The high-fat diet led to a state of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, associated with increased deposits of intra-abdominal fat, hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. Mice liver also exhibited increased proinflammatory cytokines' levels, decreased PGC-1 alpha expression, and marked increase in p65 NF kappa B nuclear translocation. Linoleic acid treated cells also presented increased expression of proinflammatory cytokines and decreased PGC-1 alpha expression. The knockdown of PGC-1 alpha content caused an increase in IL-6 expression and release via enhanced I kappa B alpha phosphorylation and subsequent increase of p65 NF kappa B nuclear translocation. High-fat diet induces liver inflammation by inhibiting PGC-1 alpha expression and its suppressive effect in NF kappa B pathway.
