- Quality of life, fatigue, sleep quality, and mental health in systemic lupus erythematosus patients with a high cardiovascular risk profile(2023) MAZZOLANI, Bruna Caruso; SMAIRA, Fabiana Infante; SIECZKOWSKA, Sofia; ROMERO, Marina; RIBEIRO, Thaina Toledo; AMARANTE, Milla Cordeiro; PASOTO, Sandra; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; BENATTI, Fabiana Braga; BONFA, Eloisa; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; GUALANO, BrunoSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients report worse health-related quality of life (HRQL), fatigue, anxiety, depression, and sleep quality, when compared to the general population and other chronic diseases. Furthermore, cardiometabolic diseases are highly prevalent in SLE and are also associated with these parameters. Thus, it is plausible to suggest that SLE patients with a high cardiovascular risk may report worse results for these parameters. The aim of the study is to describe HRQL, fatigue, anxiety and depression symptoms, and sleep quality in a sample of SLE patients with a high cardiovascular risk profile (i.e., BMI between 25 and 40 kg/m2 and/or dyslipidemia, hypertension, or diabetes). This was a cross-sectional study where patients were assessed for (i) demographic, anthropometric, and disease-related parameters, (ii) HRQL, (iii) fatigue, (iv) anxiety and depression symptoms, and (v) sleep quality. One-hundred patients completed the study; however, only 87 patients were assessed for sleep quality data. Patients averaged 41.7 & PLUSMN; 9 years, and most patients were classified as overweight/obese (87%). SF-36 scores for physical and mental components summary were 51.3 & PLUSMN; 9.6 and 54.2 & PLUSMN; 15.6, respectively, with ""bodily pain"" and ""role emotional"" presenting the lower scores. The total SLEQOL score was 105.1 & PLUSMN; 42.0, with lower scores reported for ""self-image"" and ""mood."" Fatigue score was 30.8 & PLUSMN; 8.9, and 78% and 93% reported severe symptoms of anxiety and depression, respectively. The average sleep effectiveness was 82.9 & PLUSMN; 6.6%. Sleep latency, total time in bed (TTiB), and total sleep time (TST) were 8.4 & PLUSMN; 8.9, 495.8 & PLUSMN; 79.7, and 409.7 & PLUSMN; 69.9 min, respectively. Patients reported an average of 17.8 & PLUSMN; 6.2 WE, with 4.5 & PLUSMN; 1.5 min duration and a WASO of 77.7 & PLUSMN; 36.6 min. Despite similar HRQL, fatigue, and sleep quality parameters to those reported by other SLE populations, SLE patients with a high cardiovascular risk had a higher prevalence of depression and anxiety. Understanding SLE patients' quality of life and psychological symptoms is of utmost importance to improve disease management. The findings of this study highlight the need for more intensive and global care regarding mental health when considering a high cardiovascular risk in SLE.
- The Influence of n-3PUFA Supplementation on Muscle Strength, Mass, and Function: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis(2023) ANDRE, Heloisa C. Santo; ESTEVES, Gabriel P.; BARRETO, Gabriel. H. C.; LONGHINI, Fernando; DOLAN, Eimear; BENATTI, Fabiana B.The effects of omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3PUFA) supplementation on skeletal muscle are currently unclear. The purpose of this systematic review was to synthesize all available evidence regarding the influence of n-3PUFA supplementation on muscle mass, strength, and function in healthy young and older adults. Four databases were searched (Medline, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, and SportDiscus). Predefined eligibility criteria were determined according to Population, Intervention, Comparator, Outcomes, and Study Design. Only peer -reviewed studies were included. The Cochrane RoB2 Tool and the NutriGrade approach were used to access risk of bias and certainty in evidence. Effect sizes were calculated using pre-post scores and analyzed using a three-level, random-effects meta-analysis. When sufficient studies were available, subanalyses were performed in the muscle mass, strength, and function outcomes according to participant's age (<60 or >= 60 years), supplementation dosage (<2 or >= 2 g/day), and training intervention (""resistance training"" vs. ""none or other""). Overall, 14 individual studies were included, total 1443 participants (913 females; 520 males) and 52 outcomes measures. Studies had high overall risk of bias and consideration of all NutriGrade elements resulted in a certainty assessment of moderate meta-evidence for all outcomes. n-3PUFA supplementation had no significant effect on muscle mass (standard mean difference [SMD] = 0.07 [95% CI: -0.02, 0.17], P = 0.11) and muscle function (SMD = 0.03 [95% CI: -0.09, 0.15], P = 0.58), but it showed a very small albeit significant positive effect on muscle strength (SMD = 0.12 [95% CI: 0.006, 0.24], P = 0.04) in participants when compared with placebo. Subgroup analyses showed that age, supplementation dose, or cosupplementation alongside resistance training did not influence these responses. In conclusion, our analyses indicated that n-3PUFA supplementation may lead to very small increases in muscle strength but did not impact muscle mass and function in healthy young and older adults. To our knowledge, this is the first review and meta-analysis investigating whether n-3PUFA supplemen-tation can lead to increases in muscle strength, mass, and function in healthy adults.

- A randomized controlled trial of an intervention promoting physical activity and healthy eating recommendations in systemic lupus erythematosus: the protocol study ""Living Well with Lupus""(2023) SIECZKOWSKA, Sofia Mendes; SMAIRA, Fabiana Infante; MAZZOLANI, Bruna Caruso; ROMERO, Marina; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; OLIVEIRA, Victor Rodrigues De; UEDA, Serli; BENATTI, Fabiana Braga; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; GUALANO, BrunoThere is a paucity of studies assessing multidisciplinary interventions focused on tackling physical inactivity/sedentary behavior and poor dietary habits in SLE. The Living well with Lupus (LWWL) is a randomized controlled trial to investigate whether a six-month lifestyle change intervention will improve cardiometabolic risk factors (primary outcome) among systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with low disease activity (SLEDAI score & LE; 4) and with high cardiovascular risk. As secondary goals, we will evaluate: (1) the intervention's safety, efficacy, and feasibility in promoting lifestyle changes, and (2) the effects of the intervention on secondary outcomes (i.e., clinical parameters, functional capacity, fatigue, psychological aspects, sleep quality and health-related quality of life). Patients will be randomly allocated to either a control (i.e., standard care) or a lifestyle intervention group using a simple randomization (1:1 ratio, blocks of 20). Mixed Model analyses will be conducted for comparing groups following an intention-to-treat approach. A per protocol analysis will also be conducted. This study has the potential to generate new, clinically relevant data able to refine the multidisciplinary management of SLE patients. Protocol version number: NCT04431167 (first version).
- Can A Ballerina Eat Ice Cream?: A Mixed-Method Study on Eating Attitudes and Body Image in Female Ballet Dancers(2022) ANDRE, Heloisa C. Santo; PINTO, Ana Jessica; MAZZOLANI, Bruna Caruso; SMAIRA, Fabiana Infante; ULIAN, Mariana Dimitrov; GUALANO, Bruno; BENATTI, Fabiana BragaAim: We aimed to explore how a group of classical ballet dancers perceived their eating attitudes and their bodies, with special attention to the potential presence of eating disorders (EDs) symptoms and body image (dis)satisfaction. Methods: A cross-sectional, mixed-method study was conducted on fourteen trained classical ballet dancers (18-30 years old). Their experiences, perceptions, and feelings regarding eating attitudes and body image concerning classical ballet were acquired through qualitative focus groups. The presence of EDs symptoms and perception and (dis)satisfaction with body image was analyzed quantitatively through self-report questionnaires. Results: Participants reported concerning eating attitudes during the focus groups, such as the regular practice of several restrictive popular diets, constant restriction of foods considered ""heavy"" or ""fatty,"" meal skipping and ignoring signs of hunger, presence of overeating episodes due to stress and anxiety, feeling guilty about breaking their usual diet, classifying foods as ""good"" and ""bad"" or ""lean"" and ""fat,"" and excluding some of those foods from their usual diets. These reports were partially reflected in the questionnaires, with 50% of the ballerinas showing bulimic symptoms indicative of an unusual eating pattern (only two of them with a significant risk index), 7.1% showing symptoms of moderate binge eating, and 14.3% symptoms of EDs in general. Additionally, when considering their bodies in the context of everyday life, participants were satisfied; however, in the ""classical ballet"" context, they reported feeling dissatisfied with their shape. These findings were in line with results from the Stunkard's Scale, which revealed that 50% of the sample was dissatisfied with their current body shape and 57.1% indicated that their desired body shape was a leaner figure than one they considered healthy. Conclusions: The constant practice of restrictive diets and other weight-loss strategies to achieve a leaner body were associated with symptoms of EDs and body dissatisfaction in this sample. Importantly, the questionnaires used seemed to underestimate the presence of a disordered eating pattern reported by the participants during focus groups. These data could help to inform psychological and nutritional strategies aimed at improving performance, physical and psychological well-being, and quality of life of ballet dancers.
