Implementing DASH-aligned meals and Self-Measured Blood Pressure to reduce hypertension at senior centers: a RE-AIM analysis.
Investigators implemented two evidence-based interventions not previously tested in senior centers, DASH-aligned congregate meals and Self-Measured Blood Pressure (SMBP), to lower blood pressure (BP) at two senior centers serving low-income, racially diverse communities. Using the RE-AIM framework to analyze implementation, they found that change in systolic BP at Month 1 trended towards significance and change in SMBP reached significance at Month 6; food costs increased by 10%. They concluded that this RE-AIM analysis highlighted the acceptability, feasibility, and fidelity of this DASH/SMBP health intervention to lower BP at senior centers.

Maternal, infant, and child health outcomes associated with the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children: a systematic review.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether WIC participation was associated with improved maternal, neonatal-birth, and infant-child health outcomes or differences in outcomes by subgroups and WIC enrollment duration. Findings showed moderate strength of evidence (SOE) that maternal WIC participation during pregnancy is likely associated with lower risk for preterm birth, low birthweight infants, and infant mortality; low SOE that maternal WIC participation may be associated with a lower likelihood of inadequate gestational weight gain, as well as increased well-child visits and childhood immunizations; and low SOE that child WIC participation may be associated with increased childhood immunizations. Further, findings showed low SOE for differences in some outcomes by race and ethnicity but insufficient evidence for differences by WIC enrollment duration.

Implementing dash-aligned congregate meals and self-measured blood pressure in two senior centers: An open label study.
This study tested whether implementing two evidence-based interventions--DASH-aligned meals provided through an existing congregate meal program, and support for home Self-Measured Blood Pressure (SMBP) monitoring--lowers blood pressure among participants at two senior centers serving low-income, racially diverse communities. Participants were clients aged ≥60, eating ≥4 meals/week at two NYC senior centers. They received DASH-aligned congregate meals, and training in nutrition, BP management education, and personal SMBP device. Primary outcomes was a) change in systolic BP measured by independent health professionals, and b) change in percent with "controlled BP" (Eighth Joint National Committee (JNC-8) Guidelines), at Month 1 compared to Baseline. The authors enrolled 94 participants, with COVID closures interrupting implementation mid-study. Mean systolic BP at Month-1 changed by -4.41 mmHg compared to Baseline. Participants with controlled BP increased at Month 1 and changes in mean BP at Month 1 was significantly correlated with BMI, age, and baseline BP. Mean systolic mean SMBP changed by -6.9 mmHg at Months 5/6.

Interventions for malnutrition in hospitalized adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
The purpose of this review of existing research was to evaluate the effectiveness of hospital-initiated interventions for patients with malnutrition. The study found 11 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated 2 types of interventions: 1) specialized nutrition care, and 2) increased protein provision, with moderate evidence in pooled findings that specialized nutrition care and increased protein provision reduced mortality by 21%. Decrease in length of stay was not significant. The researchers concluded that in patients at risk for or diagnosed with malnutrition, specialized nutrition care and increased protein provision reduced mortality.

The Affordable Care Act Medicaid expansion: a difference-in-differences study of spillover participation in SNAP.
Medicaid expansion through the Affordable Care Act increased access to insurance coverage to adults under 138% of the federal poverty level and connected individuals to SNAP (the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Food Program – formerly the Food Stamp Program). The purpose of this study was to estimate the effect of Medicaid expansion on SNAP participation among 414,000 individuals across the U.S. The study found that there was a 2.9% increase in SNAP participation produced by Medicaid expansion among individuals living under 138% of the federal poverty level. In subgroup analyses the researchers discovered a 5% increase in households without children below 75% of the federal poverty level, and an increase in SNAP households with zero dollars in income. The study concluded that the impact of the Medicaid expansion on access to SNAP participation was the greatest in very-low-income individuals, and that the impact of Medicaid expansion reaches beyond healthcare by increasing access to other supports like food which is a social determinant of health.

Impact of guideline-recommended dietitian assessments on weight gain in infants with cystic fibrosis.
This study’s purpose was to characterize nutrition management for infants with cystic fibrosis (CF) with inadequate weight gain and to assess association of dietitian assessments and center-level weight-for-age Z-scores (WAZ). Encounter data from 226 infants was used from across 28 US CF Centers from the Baby Observational Nutritional study between January 2012 through December 2017. The authors identified dietitian assessments and consensus guideline-recommended responses to inadequate weight gain: calorie increases, pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) increases, or shortened time to next visit. They compared center assessments by funnel plot and summarized median WAZ by center. Of 2,527 visits, 808 visits had identified inadequate weight gain, distributed in 216 infants. Assessments occurred in 77% of visits but varied widely between centers (range 17% - 98%). They used funnel plot analysis to identify high-performers for frequent dietitian assessments (range 92% - 98%) and 4 under-performers (range 17% - 56%). High-performers treated inadequate weight gain more often with adequate calories (80% vs 52%) and closer follow-up (63% vs 49%) compared to underperformers. Three of 4 high-performing sites met center nutrition goals for positive median WAZ at 2 years old unlike 3 under-performers, despite similar patient characteristics.

The role of value-based payment in promoting innovation to address social risks: a cross-sectional study of social risk screening by US physicians.
The authors studied the conditions under which value-based payment will encourage health care providers to innovate to address upstream social risks. Their results indicated that implementation of social risk screening was not associated with overall exposure to value-based payment for physician practices. They recommended expanding social risk screening in order to reduce the level of innovative capacity required.

Behavioral counseling to pomote a healthy diet and physical activity for cardiovascular disease prevention in adults with cardiovascular risk factors: updated evidence report and systematic review for the US Preventive Services Task Force.
Researchers reviewed the benefits and harms of behavioral counseling interventions to improve diet and physical activity in adults with cardiovascular risk factors. They found that medium- and high-contact multisession behavioral counseling interventions to improve diet and increase physical activity for people with elevated blood pressure and lipid levels were effective in reducing cardiovascular events, blood pressure, low-density lipoproteins, and adiposity-related outcomes, with little to no risk of serious harm.

Child social media influencers and unhealthy food product placement.
The goal of this study was to determine the frequency with which kid influencers promote branded and unbranded food and drinks during their YouTube videos and assess the nutritional quality of food and drinks shown. The researchers found that most food and/or drinks were unhealthy branded items, followed by unhealthy unbranded items, healthy unbranded items, and healthy branded items. They concluded that kid influencers generate millions of impressions for unhealthy food and drink brands through product placement and recommended that the Federal Trade Commission strengthen regulations regarding product placement on YouTube videos featuring young children.

The food environment in 3 neighborhoods in South Los Angeles, California: access, availability, quality, and marketing practices.
The authors developed a mapping component as part of a multilevel church-based intervention that used community-based participatory research to prevent obesity in African American and Latino churches in South Los Angeles. They developed neighborhood maps of local food environments and provided churches with standardized information on food access, availability, quality, and marketing practices. Including several tables as well as discussion, they stated that local food environment maps that are paired with data can inform community-based strategies to prevent obesity and food insecurity.

Associations between calcium and magnesium intake and the risk of incident gastric cancer: a prospective cohort analysis of the National Institutes of Health-American Association of Retired Persons (NIH-AARP) Diet and Health Study.
Gastric cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Identifying dietary and other modifiable disease determinants has important implications for risk attenuation in susceptible individuals. The primary aim of the investigators was to estimate the association between dietary and supplemental intakes of calcium and magnesium and the risk of incident gastric cancer. They conducted a prospective cohort analysis of the National Institutes of Health-American Association of Retired Persons Diet and Health Study.

Provision of social services and health care quality in US community health centers, 2017.
The authors describe the types of social services provided at community health centers (CHCs), characteristics of CHCs providing these services, and the association between on-site provision and health care quality. Their findings indicate that CHCs most often offered on-site assistance for needs related to food or nutriion, interpersonal violence, and housing. Participation in projects with community-based organizations was associated with providing services on-site. On-site provision was associated with better performance on measures of health care quality. They conclude that some CHCs provide social services on-site, and this was associated with better performance on measures of health care quality.

What diet should I recommend my patient with hepatic encephalopathy?
The burden of malnutrition is high in patients with cirrhosis, especially in those with hepatic encephalopathy (HE). This has a bearing on increased morbidity and mortality. Heightened attention needs to be paid to screen the patients at high nutritional risk both in the outpatient and hospitalized settings. This review summarized the current evidence for nutritional support in HE patients and compared the recommendations about nutritional requirement as laid out by various organizations.
