Glutaric acidemia (GA) are heterogeneous, genetic diseases that present with specific catabolic deficiencies of amino acid or fatty acid metabolism. The disorders can be divided into type I and type II by the occurrence of different types of recessive mutations of autosomal, metabolically important genes. Patients of glutaric acidemia type I (GA-I) if not diagnosed very early in infanthood, experience irreversible neurological injury during an encephalopathic crisis in childhood. If diagnosed early the disorder can be treated successfully with a combined metabolic treatment course that includes early catabolic emergency treatment and long-term maintenance nutrition therapy. Glutaric acidemia type II (GA- II) patients can present clinically with hepatomegaly, non-ketotic hypoglycemia, metabolic acidosis, hypotonia, and in neonatal onset cardiomyopathy. Furthermore, it features adult-onset muscle-related symptoms, including weakness, fatigue, and myalgia. An early diagnosis is crucial, as both types can be managed by simple nutraceutical supplementation. This review discusses the pathogenesis of GA and its nutritional management practices, and aims to promote understanding and management of GA. We will provide a detailed summary of current clinical management strategies of the glutaric academia disorders and highlight issues of nutrition therapy principles in emergency settings and outline some specific cases.

Short-bowel syndrome is a rare problem in surgical practice and its prognosis depends on the length of intestinal remnants and/or the presence of a jejunostomy. In adults long-term total parenteral nutrition (TPN) can be avoided if the remaining small bowel is longer than 60-100 cm. In all, 50-60% of patients in the long-term follow-up are expected to be adequately nourished with oral feeding, 25% with enteral and parenteral feeding and less than 20% depend on long-term TPN alone. By using a modified diet (glutamine, growth hormone), intestinal absorption and overall prognosis could even be enhanced. The introduction of home TPN by specialized centres has resulted in a remarkable improvement in quality of life (> 80% good). The main complications of long-term TPN are sepsis, thrombosis and metabolic disorders. Medical therapy of diarrhoea consists of H2-receptor antagonists (hypergastrinaemia), loperamide and secretion inhibitors (somatostatin). Several surgical procedures have been performed, either to decelerate intestinal transit or to increase the area of intestinal absorption with overall unsatisfactory results. However, in the presence of small-bowel dilatation, promising surgical results (tapering, stricturoplasty, intestinal lengthening) have been achieved. There may be advances (immunosuppression) in the future that will make intestinal transplantation a good option for some patients; at present, the 1-year patient and graft survival in around 100 patients was 60% and 40%, respectively.

DesignA total of 33 women attended weekly ambulatory care for diet therapy with their family. FBS and two-hour post-prandial blood glucose were monitored every visit for a few weeks. At the end of the program, those with poor glycemic control were admitted for a three-day intensive diet therapy, after which insulin was started if glycemic control remained poor.

With the number of individuals older than 65 years expected to rise significantly over the next few decades, dramatic changes to our society and health care system will need to take place to meet their needs. Age-related changes in muscle mass and body composition along with medical comorbidities including stroke, dementia, and depression place elderly adults at high risk for developing malnutrition and frailty. This loss of function and decline in muscle mass (ie, sarcopenia) can be associated with reduced mobility and ability to perform the task of daily living, placing the elderly at an increased risk for falls, fractures, and subsequent institutionalization, leading to a decline in the quality of life and increased mortality. There are a number of modifiable factors that can mitigate some of the muscle loss elderly experience especially when hospitalized. Due to this, it is paramount for providers to understand the pathophysiology behind malnutrition and sarcopenia, be able to assess risk factors for malnutrition, and provide appropriate nutrition support. The present review describes the pathophysiology of malnutrition, identifies contributing factors to this condition, discusses tools to assess nutritional status, and proposes key strategies for optimizing enteral nutrition therapy for the elderly.

This is an interesting paper studying the positive effects of a structured nutrition therapy programme on various metabolic factors and quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes during Ramadan. This is a novel study which has in my opinion some major and minor limitations.

The Comparison of Structured Nutrition therapy for Ramadan with Standard Care in Type 2 Diabetes Patients investigates an important topic testing as a novelty the Ramadan Nutrition Plan as proposed by the International Diabetes Federation and the Diabetes and Ramadan International Alliance. However, the manuscript could be improved by a more in depth discussion of the results in relation to previous study protocols and by providing some clarifications:

Response 3.2a: The description about nutrition strategies of the two group are summarized in Table 1 (page 4) as below. We have also added the energy prescription, macronutrient distribution and sample menu in supplementary files (Table S1-S4).

Prerequisite to Graduate WorkA bachelor's degree related to Food and Nutrition is the preferred foundation with coursework in biochemistry, anatomy and physiology, and nutrition. Additional course work may be required as a condition of admission should there exist deficiencies in undergraduate course work.

Degree RequirementsThe Food and Nutrition (F&N) graduate program provides course work and study in basic nutritional sciences, current topics in food and nutrition sciences, and applied areas, such as community/public health nutrition, and clinical/medical nutrition therapy. Supporting course work in a related field, such as biology, chemistry, counseling, exercise science, education, and/or epidemiology, is designed to meet the student's career interests.

Food and Nutrition Graduate CertificateThe Food and Nutrition Graduate Certificate (FNGC) curriculum includes studies in nutrient metabolism, food science, and nutritional principles related to health and disease. The FNGC may be desired by students currently pursuing other graduate degree programs (e.g. public health, exercise science, biological sciences), employed in allied health professions, or in the Dietetic Internship who have an interest in advanced study of food and nutrition but do not wish to complete a graduate degree. Students completing the Food and Nutrition Graduate Certificate Program will be required to take 15 credit hours of food and nutrition graduate-level courses. The FNGC does not carry with it any licensure or privileges, and is not currently approved by any professional organization.
