The effect of 6-week consumption of bakery products on changes in selected anthropometric parameters in women

100%

Lenartova P. , Gazarova M.

nr 4

Background. The changes in consumers’ eating habits are one of the most important factors affecting the consumption of selected foods. The most important factors for bakery products consumers are freshness, taste, price, durability, composition, and country of origin. Objective. The aim of this study was to monitor changes in selected anthropometric characteristics in women from the general population in Slovakia, after 6 weeks of bakery products consumption. Material and Methods. The study was conducted on healthy adult women from the general population (n=78), who were divided into four subgroups (“gluten” group, “gluten-free” group, “whole-grain” group and “control” group). The intervention dose consisted of a different combination of several types of bakery products (bread, pastries, soft pastries) within the individual weeks of consumption, while the intervention lasted 6 weeks, women consumed 150-200 grams per day. Anthropometric characteristics were measured by body composition analyser InBody 720 (Biospace Co. Ltd., Seoul, Republic of Korea), which works on the principle of bioelectrical impedance analysis. We also used the Lookin´Body 3.0 software to process the results. The collected data from these measurements were evaluated statistically and graphically in Microsoft Office Excel 2010 (Los Angeles, CA, USA). The levels of statistical significance were set at P<0.05 (*); P<0.01 (**); P<0.001 (***). Differences among subgroups of probands were tested with Pared Student t-test. Results. The amount of fat mass (FM) in the participants changed along a similar curve as their body weight. After the 6-week intervention, there was a slight decrease in FM with statistical significance (P<0.01). In the third measurement, i.e., two months after the intervention, there was an increase in the amount of FM, but without statistical significance. Fat free mass (FFM) values in women increased very slightly after 6 weeks of consumption and remained approximately at the same level two months after the intervention (without statistical significance). We noted the most significant changes in the visceral fat area (VFA) parameter, which had a steadily increasing tendency. Changes in VFA values were statistically significant after the 6-week intervention (P<0.01) and also after two months of the intervention (P<0.05). Conclusions. Changes in body composition in women were noted already after 6 weeks of bakery products consumption, especially in the FM, FFM, VFA and partially BMI parameters, but no changes were recorded in the WHR parameters during the entire duration of the study. One of the most significant results is the finding that there was an increase in VFA when consuming all types of bakery products (gluten, gluten-free and whole grain).

Background. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an airway inflammatory disease caused by inhalation of toxic particles, mainly cigarette smoking, and now is accepted as a disease associated with systemic characteristics. Objective. The aim of this work was to investigate and compare selected biochemical parameters in patients with and without COPD. Material and Methods. Observation group consisted of clinically stable patients with COPD (n = 60). The control group was healthy persons from the general population, without COPD, who were divided into two subgroups – smokers (n = 30) and non-smokers (n = 30). Laboratory parameters were investigated by automated clinical chemistry analyzer LISA 200th. Results. Albumin in our measurements showed an average value of 39.55 g.l-1 in the patient population; 38.89 g.l-1 in smokers and in non-smokers group 44.65 g.l-1. The average value of pre-albumin in the group of patients was 0.28 ± 0.28 g.l-1 and 0.30 ± 0.04 g.l-1 in smokers group. The average value of the orosomucoid in patients was about 1.11 ± 0.90 mg.ml-1. In the group of smokers, the mean value of orosomucoid was 0.60 ± 0.13 mg.ml-1. The level of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the patient group reached an average value of 15.31 ± 22.04 mg.l-1, in the group of smokers was 5.18 ± 4.58 mg. l-1. Prognostic inflammatory and nutritional index (PINI) in the group of patients showed a mean value of 4.65 ± 10.77 and 0.026 ± 0.025 in smokers. Conclusions. The results of this work show, that the values of index PINI in COPD patients are significantly higher than in smokers (P <0.001). This along with other monitored parameters indicative inflammation as well as a catabolic process that occurs in the organism of patients with COPD.

Wprowadzenie. Przewlekła obturacyjna choroba płuc (POChP) jest chorobą zapalną dróg oddechowych spowodowaną inhalacją toksycznych związków chemicznych, pochodzących głównie z palenia papierosów, która charakteryzowana jest jako choroba ogólnoustrojowa. Cel. Celem niniejszej pracy było oznaczenie we krwi chorych na POChP wybranych parametrów biochemicznych stanu zapalnego oraz porównanie ich stężenia w grupie zdrowych ludzi bez POChP.0 Materiał i metody. Grupa badana składała się z klinicznie stabilnych pacjentów z POChP (n = 60). Grupę kontrolną stanowili zdrowi pacjenci z populacji generalnej, bez POChP, którzy zostali podzieleni na dwie podgrupy – palaczy papierosów (n = 30) i niepalących (n = 30). Parametry biochemiczne oznaczano z wykorzystaniem automatycznego analizatora LISA 200. Wyniki. Średnie stężenie albumin w grupie chorych wynosiło 39.55 g.l-1 ; w grupie zdrowych palących 38.89 g.l-1 a w grupie zdrowych niepalących 44.65 g.l-1. Średnie stężenie pre-albuminy w poszczególnych grupach pacjentów i zdrowych palących wynosiło odpowiednio 0.28 ± 0.28 g.l-1 oraz 0.30 ± 0.04 g.l-1. Stężenie orosomukoidu w grupie chorych wynosiło 1.11 ± 0.90 mg.ml-1. W grupie palących zdrowych osób średnio 0.60 ± 0.13 mg.ml-1. Stężenie białka Creaktywnego (CRP) w grupie chorych na POChP wynosiło 15.31 ± 22.04 mg.l-1, a w grupie palących 5.18 ± 4.58 mg. l-1. Prognostyczny wskaźnik odżywienia i stanu zapalnego - PINI (Prognostic Inflammatory and Nutritional Index) w grupie pacjentów wynosił średnio 4.65 ± 10.77 a w grupie osób palących 0.026 ± 0.025. Wnioski: Wyniki niniejszych badań wykazały, że wartości PINI u pacjentów z POChP były statystycznie wyższe (p <0,001) niż w grupie osób palących. Uzyskane wyniki wraz z innymi monitorowanymi parametrami świadczą o stanie zapalnym jak również o procesie katabolicznym, który występuje w organizmie pacjentów z POChP.
