Visceral obesity measured using computed tomography scans

Baggerman, Michelle R.; Dekker, Ingeborg M.; Winkens, Bjorn; Olde Damink, Steven W.M.; Stapel, Sandra N.; Weijs, Peter J.M. (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging); van de Poll, Marcel C.G.

Introduction: The association between obesity and outcome in critical illness is unclear. Since the amount of visceral adipose tissue(VAT) rather than BMI mediates the health effects of obesity we aimed to investigate the association between visceral obesity, BMI and 90-day mortality in critically ill …

Computed tomography reference values for visceral obesity and increased metabolic risk in a Caucasian cohort

Baggerman, Michelle R; Dekker, Ingeborg M; Winkens, Bjorn; Olde Damink, Steven W M; Weijs, Peter J M (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging); van de Poll, Marcel C G

BACKGROUND: Visceral obesity is associated with the metabolic syndrome. The metabolic risk differs per ethnicity, but reference values for visceral obesity for body composition analyses using Computed Tomography (CT) scans in the Caucasian population are lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was …

Calculation of protein requirements

Dekker, Ingeborg M.; van Rijssen, Natascha M.; Verreijen, Amely (Faculteit Bewegen, Sport En Voeding); Weijs, Peter JM (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging); de Boer, W. B.(Elsbeth); Terpstra, Dominique; Kruizenga, Hinke M.

Background & aims: In dietary practice, it is common to estimate protein requirements on actual bodyweight, but corrected bodyweight (in cases with BMI <20 kg/m2 and BMI ≥30 kg/m2) and fat free mass (FFM) are also used. Large differences on individual level are noticed in protein requirements using these …

Early high protein intake and mortality in critically ill ICU patients with low skeletal muscle area and -density

Looijaard, Wilhelmus G.P.M.; Dekker, Ingeborg M.; Beishuizen, Albertus; Girbes, Armand R.J.; Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen M.; Weijs, Peter J.M.

Background & aims: Optimal nutritional support during the acute phase of critical illness remains controversial. We hypothesized that patients with low skeletal muscle area and -density may specifically benefit from early high protein intake. Aim of the present study was to determine the association …

Identifying critically ill patients with low muscle mass

Looijaard, Willem G.P.M.; Stapel, Sandra N.; Dekker, Ingeborg M.; Rusticus, Hanna; Remmelzwaal, Sharon; Girbes, Armand R.J.; Weijs, Peter J.M.; Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen M.

Background & aims: Low muscle mass and -quality on ICU admission, as assessed by muscle area and -density on CT-scanning at lumbar level 3 (L3), are associated with increased mortality. However, CT-scan analysis is not feasible for standard care. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) assesses body …

Skeletal muscle quality as assessed by CT-derived skeletal muscle density is associated with 6-month mortality in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients

Looijaard, Wilhelmus G.P.M.; Dekker, Ingeborg M.; Stapel, Sandra N.; Girbes, Armand R.J.; Twisk, Jos W.R.; Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen M.; Weijs, Peter J.M. (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging)

BACKGROUND: Muscle quantity at intensive care unit (ICU) admission has been independently associated with mortality. In addition to quantity, muscle quality may be important for survival. Muscle quality is influenced by fatty infiltration or myosteatosis, which can be assessed on computed tomography …

Low skeletal muscle area is a risk factor formortality in mechanically ventilated critically illpatients

Weijs, Peter JM (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging); Looijaard, Wilhelmus GPM; Dekker, Ingeborg M; Stapel, Sandra N; Girbes, Armand RJ; Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen M; Beishuizen, Albertus

Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Higher body mass index (BMI) is associated with lower mortality in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients. However, it is yet unclear which body component is responsible for this relationship.
