Abstract Enhancing physical activity promotes positive health trajectories throughout the life course. Physical should be tailored and graded to suit older adults’ capacities needs can combined with rehabilitation interventions manage geriatric syndromes disability. This chapter provides a summary of current evidence about role for adults, emphasizing nutritional aspects. We also present strate...

Purpose; Returning to community living is an indicator for successful rehabilitation in older adults admitted geriatric rehabilitation. Predicting could contribute the deployment of early discharge planning, and leads a more custom-made trajectory. This review aims present overview factors associated with following inpatient Method; A systematic literature was conducted PubMed, CINAHL Embase. E...

Ischemic stroke remains the predominant cause of disability in population (3.2 per 1000 population). Only 8% ischemic survivors can return to their previous work. Nutritional support is an integral part multidisciplinary approach treatment intensive care unit during acute and rehabilitation phases. Brain damage always has metabolic consequences on patients body, premorbid malnutrition stroke-st...

The metabolic hormones, growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I, together with IGF binding proteins (IGFBP), have been well studied in domestic species and are the primary components of the somatotropic axis. This hormone axis is responsive to nutrient intake, associated with growth rate, and accretion of protein and adipose. However, this relationship has not been evaluated ...

The growth and survival of children was studied after rehabilitation for malnutrition at the Nutrition Rehabilitation Centre (NRC) of St Mary's Hospital on average 1.5 year after discharge. The findings are intended partly to provide descriptive information on later progress in the community of these children and also to identify specific risk factors. Of 50 children eligible for follow-up, 39 ...

The objective of this study was to assess the impact of an alimentary integrator composed of spirulina (Spirulina platensis; SP), produced at the Centre Médical St Camille of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, on the nutritional status of undernourished HIV-infected and HIV-negative children. We compared two groups of children: 84 were HIV-infected and 86 were HIV-negative. The duration of the study wa...

BACKGROUND Usually the suitable consistence identified and indicated as safe by videofluoroscopic method has been empirically obtained by association of barium sulfate solution with meals. However, it has been evidenced to be very difficult to reproduce this consistence in nutritional rehabilitation therapy from subjective information. AIM To build two reproductive similar crescent viscositie...

Background/Aims: Injuries are an unavoidable aspect of participation in physical activity. Little information about nutritional support for injuries exists. Review: Immediately following injury, wound healing begins with an inflammatory response. Excessive anti-inflammatory measures may impair recovery. Many injuries result in limb immobilization. Immobilization results in muscle loss due to in...
