Single and combined supplementation of glutamine and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on host tolerance and tumour response to 7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxy-camptothecin (CPT-11)/5-fluorouracil chemotherapy in rats bearing Ward colon tumour

Xue, Hongyu, Sawyer, Michael B., Le Roy, Severine, Dieleman, Levinus A., Baracos, Vickie E., Field, Catherine J.
Prior reports suggest that during irinotecan (7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxy-camptothecin; CPT-11) chemotherapy in laboratory rats, the anti-tumour efficacy and diarrhoea toxicity could be modulated by n-3 PUFA and glutamine, respectively. We further examined how these two...

The influence of coffee consumption on bioelectrical impedance parameters: a randomized, double-blind, cross-over trial
Download2022-01-01
Mota, João F., Gonzalez, Maria Cristina, Lukaski, Henry, Oto, Gabriela L., Trottier, Claire F., Tibaes, Jenneffer R. B., Prado, Carla M.
Background Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a widely used method for estimating body composition. Avoiding foods/beverages containing caffeine is a frequently enforced pre-test protocol to ensure reliability of BIA measurements. However, few studies have evaluated whether this is...

Ford, Katherine L, Pichard, Claude, Sawyer, Michael B., Trottier, Claire F, Disi, Ilana Roitman, Purcell, Sarah A, Ghosh, Sunita, Siervo, Mario, Deutz, Nicolaas E. P., Prado, Carla M.
Background Total energy expenditure (TEE) determines energy requirements, but objective data in patients with cancer are limited. Objectives We aimed to characterize TEE, investigate its predictors, and compare TEE with cancer-specific predicted energy requirements. Methods This cross-sectional...

Validity and accuracy of body fat prediction equations using anthropometrics measurements in adolescents
Download2020-05-19
Ripka, Wagner L., Orsso, Camila E., Haqq, Andrea M., Prado, Carla M., Ulbricht, Leandra, Leite, Neiva
Background The pediatric relative fat mass (RFM) has been recently presented and validated as an index for estimating percentage body fat (%BF) in North American children and adolescents. Similar to body mass index (BMI) and tri-ponderal mass index (TMI), RFM uses anthropometric measures (i.e.,...
