چکیده

Children with history of broncho-pulmonary dysplasia (BPD) often suffer from growth failure and lung sequelae. The main objective of this study was to test the role of pulmonary obstruction on resting energy expenditure (REE) and nutritional status in BPD. Seventy-one children with BPD (34 boys and 37 girls) and 30 controls (20 boys and 10 girls) aged 4-8 years were enrolled. Body composition was assessed by bio-impedancemetry measurements; REE was measured by indirect calorimetry. Predicted REE was calculated using the Schofield equation. The population of children with BPD was divided into three groups: children without obstruction of the airways, children with moderate obstruction of the airways, and children with severe obstruction. Children with BPD were significantly smaller and leaner than controls. Altered body composition (reduction of fat mass) was observed in BPD children that suffered from airway obstruction. REE was significantly lower in children with BPD compared to controls, but when adjusted for weight and fat-free mass no significant difference was observed irrespective of pulmonary status. Airway obstruction in children with BPD does not appear to be associated with an increased REE. Moreover altered REE could not explain the altered nutritional status that is still observed in BPD in later childhood. This supports the hypothesis that body composition and pulmonary function in BPD in later childhood are fixed sequelae originating from the neonatal period.

The Significance of BODE (BMI, Obstruction, Dyspnea, Exercise) Index in Patients with Mustard Lung

  Introduction: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) secondary to sulfur mustard exposure, known as mustard lung, is an important late pulmonary complication. The BODE (Body mass index, Obstruction, Dyspnea, and Exercise) index has been established as a valuable tool for determining the adverse consequences of COPD. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of the BODE index in pat...

Nutrition and survival in cystic fibrosis.

The principal clinical manifestations of cystic fibrosis are bronchiectasis with chronic pulmonary infection and pancreatic malabsorption due to destruction of the exocrine pancreas.' The interactions between the lung disease and nutrition are important because nutritional state usually parallels declining lung function and is a predictor of survival.2 A better understanding of how these two fa...

Assessment of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency in Patients with Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Background and Aims: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a kind of pulmonary diseases characterized by chronic obstruction of lung that is in the form of a diffuse narrowing of airways resulting in air flow resistance. Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is genetically relatively common risk factor in patients with COPD throughout the world and the exact cause of its prevalence is ...
