[A new type of creamery butter for pediatric and dietetic nutrition].

The paper presents the data on the chemical composition and the technology of manufacturing a new sort of butter for child's and dietetic nutrition. The butter has high biological value due to the introduction of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUSFA) with vegetable oils and milk-protein ingredients. The milk-protein ingredients also play the role of the butter structure stabilizers. The chemical composition of the new sort of butter, including the vitamin and mineral content, as well as the amino-acid composition of the butter plasma are described. It is shown that the content of PUSFA in the new sort of butter is 10-fold higher than in the routine butter. Various kinds of dessert butter have been developed with different flavoring additives. One of the butter variant has been enriched with bifidobacteria. The new sort of butter is recommended for the dietetic nutrition of children and adults suffering from obesity, as well as for the nutrition of the middle- and old-aged subjects to prevent lipid metabolism disorders.

[Soluble milk protein concentrates, casecites, for infant and dietetic nutrition].

A soluble form of caseins, so-called casecites for an infant and dietetic nutrition, is obtained from separated milk by way of solving casein through using freshly precipitated lactic acid terment of 0.1 n HCl, mixed with solts-solvents. The lactoproteinic concentrates-casecites have an elevated biological value, called forth by the content of large amounts (80.0 per cent) of complete lactic protein, the presence of citrate-ions, forming as a physiologically active additive, balanced most important mineral elements. A minimal (not more than 2.0 per cent) of the lactose content in casecites enables the latter to be utilized for nutrition of persons suffering from lactose intolerance as well as to orientally regulate the carbohydrate composition of the products obtained on their basis.

[Toxigenicity of microorganisms isolated from dry products for infant and dietetic nutrition].

The authors describe the results of studying the dissemination with Bac. cereus cells and staphylococci of raw material, components and ready-made products for infants' and dietetic nutrition after varying times of storage under the conditions of uncontrolled humidity and temperature. It has been demonstrated that Bac. cereus and staphylococcal strains isolated are potentially enterotoxigenic. Prevention of food poisoning with the microorganisms in question should be aimed at the improvement of industrial sanitary and hygienic conditions.

Staffing patterns in hospital clinical dietetics and nutrition support: a survey conducted by the Dietitians in Nutrition Support dietetic practice group.

The Dietitians in Nutrition Support dietetic practice group of The American Dietetic Association administered a questionnaire to evaluate changes in nutrition support services provided to hospitalized patients and home patients in 1989 and compared the results with results of a survey administered in 1986. The 1986 survey documented an increase in tube feeding to inpatients during 1984 to 1986 and greater dietitian staffing in tertiary care hospitals than in primary care hospitals and in larger hospitals in 1986. The 1989 questionnaire was mailed to clinical nutrition managers from a nationwide random sample of 1,000 hospitals from American Hospital Association members; 271 responses were received. Full-time equivalent (FTE) registered dietitians (RDs)--including clinical RDs, nutrition support service RDs, and clinical nutrition managers--decreased 11% from 1986 to 1989. FTE dietetic technicians decreased 22%. The number of FTE nutrition support service RDs and clinical nutrition managers decreased significantly (P less than .05). The mean number of FTE clinical dietitians per 100 beds decreased from 1.4 to 1.0 from 1986 to 1989. These decreases in dietetics staffing occurred despite an overall increase in total hospital FTE staff of 2.9%. Reported daily provision of nutrition support modalities to inpatients was 3.5% for parenteral nutrition, 4.9% for enteral tube feeding, and 9.6% for oral supplements. Decreased dietetics staffing was accompanied by other factors that negatively affect productivity (and therefore ability to provide adequate patient care), including inadequate delegation of technical tasks to dietetic technicians, limited availability of secretarial and computer support, and minimal provision of pocket pagers. These trends may be evidence of inadequacy of dietetics staffing to meet the needs of the US population for nutrition care.

[Dietetic-nutritional treatment in chronic radiation enteritis. A complex clinical case].

We present a clinical case of chronic radiation enteritis, with follow-up over 34 months, the main features of which were as follows: A 60-year-old female patient with adenocarcinoma of the rectum who required a left hemicolectomy (Hartmann), receiving chemotherapy with fluorouracil and external radiation therapy (45 Gy), presenting sub-occlusive episodes five months later that required a first surgical treatment with release of adhesive bands suggesting radiation enteritis. The patient presented progressive intolerance to oral feeding and nutritional supplements, accompanied by severe malnutrition, requiring parenteral nutrition (PN), endovenous fluid therapy and requiring a second surgical intervention due to persistence of the occlusive condition, with resection of 70 cm of the terminal ileum with ileum-colon anastomosis. The pathological analysis of the segment confirmed chronic radiation enteritis, persisting with clinical manifestations of sub-occlusion and radiological alterations compatible with radiation enteritis on the remaining intestine. The dietetic and nutritional management following admission was exclusive parenteral nutrition for 3 months, receiving formula food with glutamine for four months, associated, after 79 days of intestinal rest, with oral formula diets (Basic formula with amino acids as protein source and Standard diet) and with a gradual reduction in the number of weekly infusion until nutritional autonomy was restored after 10 months with PN, with her nutritional needs being covered completely by the digestive route. Subsequently, a mixed regime was established combining diet therapy with good tolerance and normalization of the nutritional status with a return to weight prior to illness and an improvement in radiation enteritis and biochemical parameters.

[Modern principles of assessing the effectiveness of dietetic nutrition in internal diseases].

Modern dietology is based on the metabolic principle. In all internal diseases it is composing a balanced diet adapted, above all, to metabolic disorders inherent in a given malady, that is envisaged. The range of current investigation methods permits it to ensure a strict control over the proportions of nutritional components in the dietary and to establish the limits of permissible increase or restriction of the content of each of them. Substance is given to dietetic approaches to various nosological forms of the disease that include the nutritional pattern, caloricity, qualitative and quantitative content of the nutrients.

[HIV infection. Dietetic nutritional intervention during the symptomatic phase].

This article analyzes some of the causes and the mechanisms which provoke malnutrition during the symptomatic phase of AIDS. Dietetic advise to follow is specified for the following circumstances: weight loss; diarrhea; esophagus-related problems or difficulty in swallowing; if a patient suffers nausea or vomiting; when a patient suffers from anorexia or the feeling of being full quickly. This article also deals with nutritional supplements which may be used with these patients, when enteral or parenteral nutrition is indicated, and other treatment strategies which call for the use of appetite stimulating products and anabolic agents.

[New types of canned meats for infant and dietetic nutrition].

In line with the current concept for a balanced nutrition and physiological-biochemical peculiarities of the child's organism a raw meat was selected, formulations and technology of fabricating canned goods of meat and edible viscera of three degrees of communition for three age groups of children were elaborated. An approbation made in pediatric and medical establishments justified recommending inclusion of all the kinds of these canned meat in the ration of infants aged up to one year, and of the homogenized ones- also for dietetic consumption.
