Effects of Undernutrition and Obesity on Functional and Nutritional Outcomes After Ischaemic Stroke: A Hospital-Based Study Daniela Figueiredo Corrêa Pereira, Karen Barros Parron Fernandes, Andreo Fernando Aguiar, Sergio Marques Borghi, Kamila Grandolfi, Juliano Casonatto Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, 2026 Purpose The impact of nutritional status on post‐stroke outcomes remains controversial, particularly regarding the opposing effects of undernutrition and obesity on recovery. This study investigated how these nutritional conditions influence functional and nutritional outcomes among hospitalized ischaemic stroke survivors. Methods A retrospective study analyzed 160 adults with radiologically confirmed ischaemic stroke admitted to a Brazilian tertiary hospital. Nutritional status was classified by WHO BMI criteria (undernutrition: BMI < 18.5 kg/m 2 ; obesity: BMI ≥ 30 kg/m 2 ). Outcomes included discharge/death, length of stay, symptoms/disability (mRS), neurological deficit, food intake, bedridden, respiratory support and enteral nutrition use. Logistic regression models were mutually adjusted for obesity or undernutrition status, depending on the outcome analyzed, to estimate their independent effects. Results Undernutrition ( n = 36) showed strong associations with disability (adjusted OR 6.64, 95% CI 2.19–20.14), symptomatic presentation (aOR 2.84, 1.16–6.94) and reduced food intake (aOR 5.69, 2.28–14.21). Obesity ( n = 30) was independently linked to higher disability risk after adjustment (aOR 3.32, 1.02–10.80). Estimated marginal probabilities (vs. normal/overweight BMI reference group) revealed that undernourished patients had 47.7% disability risk (vs. 12.1% in nourished) and obese patients 39.2% (vs. 16.2% in non‐obese). Conclusions Undernutrition and obesity independently predict worse functional recovery and nutritional outcomes post‐stroke, with undernutrition additionally compromising food intake. The so‐called obesity paradox was not sustained after mutual adjustment. Findings underscore the importance of: (1) early nutritional screening, (2) intensified support for undernourished patients and (3) tailored rehabilitation strategies for obese individuals.
Mental health and sleep quality across different physical activity intensities: A cross-sectional epidemiological analysis Victor S. Beretta, Wagner L. Prado, William R. Tebar, Jorge Mota, Ewerton P. Antunes, Debora T. Furuta, Priscila K. Morelhão, Juliano Casonatto, Javier Brazo-Sayavera, Gerson Ferrari, Diego G.D. Christofaro Acta Psychologica, 2026 BACKGROUND: Anxiety and depression symptoms are closely linked to sleep quality in a bidirectional manner. While physical activity (PA) is known to improve both mental health and sleep outcomes, it remains unclear whether the intensity of PA influences the relationship between sleep quality and symptoms of anxiety and depression. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to assess the relationship between anxiety/depression symptoms and sleep quality across PA intensities. STUDY-DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. METHODS: Two hundred and twenty-nine adults (42.12 ± 17.02 years) participated in this study. Sleep quality and symptoms of anxiety and depression were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale, respectively. Habitual PA intensities (i.e., light, moderate, moderate-vigorous, and vigorous) were assessed by accelerometers. Binary logistic regression models adjusted for confounding factors (age, sex, and socioeconomic status) and PA intensities were used to analyze the association between sleep quality and symptoms of anxiety/depression. RESULTS: The models indicated that individuals classified with sleep disturbance and who spend lesser time in light and vigorous PA are 7 (OR = 7.33; 95 %CI = 2.42-16.94) and 6 (OR = 6.39; 95 %CI = 2.34-17.46) times more likely to present symptoms of anxiety and 5 (OR = 5.61; 95 %CI = 1.32-23.80) and 4 (OR = 4.57; 95 % CI = 1.46-14.30) times more likely for depressive symptoms. However, these associations are no longer significant at longer duration of PA at light, moderate, and vigorous intensity, except for the association between sleep quality and symptoms of anxiety at moderate intensity of PA (OR = 4.93 95 % CI = 1.09-22.23). CONCLUSION: Short durations of light and vigorous PA appear to affect the relationship between sleep quality and symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Physical exercise interventions for endometriosis-related pain symptoms in randomized controlled trials: A systematic review and meta-analysis Danielle A. K. Moretti-Chaves, Isabela M. Pucci, Tiago H. Zaninelli, Juliano Casonatto, Sergio M. Borghi Journal of Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Disorders, 2026 Endometriosis is clinically associated with chronic inflammatory process, pain, and poor quality of life. Exercise has a broad spectrum of action in the prevention and therapeutic of a wide range of diseases. The present study has the proposal to investigate whether exercise interventions possess beneficial impact on pain outcome on endometriosis. A comprehensive systematic literature search of Pubmed/MEDLINE, Cochrane, Embase, and Web of Science databases was conducted (from May 2024 to April 2025), for randomized, controlled (control non-exercised groups), exercise trials involving individuals with endometriosis diagnosis. The risk of bias was assessed by Rob 2 tool, the quality and reporting of exercise interventions by TESTEX scale, and the certainty of evidence by GRADE system. Four studies were included in the analysis. Despite presenting a high risk of bias, an overall positive effect of physical exercise interventions relative to the non-exercised controls was observed (SMD 95% = −1.017 (−1.355 to −0.679); p < 0.001) regarding general pain (primary outcome) related to endometriosis. With respect to specific pain types related to endometriosis symptomatology (secondary outcome), physical exercise interventions were able to significantly reduce catastrophizing pain and pelvic pain, but not dyschezia, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, or dysuria. These results could be important for the clinical care of women with endometriosis-related chronic pain. However, given the heterogeneity, high risk of bias, and low quality of the included studies it can be challenging to draw reliable conclusions. This data unveils the promising potential applicability of exercise for health promotion in patients with pain resulting from endometriosis.
Overweight Is Associated With Medium-Term Obesity Development in School-Age Children: A Mixed Longitudinal Study Raphael Gustavo Testa, Adeluci Moraes, Aline Giselle Nagafuchi, Kamila Grandolfi, Andreo Fernando Aguiar, Diego Giulliano Destro Christofaro, Juliano Casonatto American Journal of Human Biology, 2025 Objectives This study aims to investigate the dynamic changes in the nutritional status of school‐age children in five cohorts with a two‐year follow‐up, encompassing a span of 7 years. Methods Utilizing a mixed longitudinal design, we implemented five cohorts with a two‐year follow‐up, encompassing a span of 7 years. The study's total sample comprised 101 school‐age children (51 females and 50 males), aged between 6 and 11 years at the commencement of the follow‐up. Anthropometric variables were obtained following standardized procedures. Subsequently, the Body Mass Index (BMI) was derived using the formula BMI = body mass (kg)/(height) 2 . Nutritional status was classified according to established cutoff points for age and sex. Results The prevalence rates for overweight, obesity, and underweight were found to be 22%, 10%, and 5%, respectively. Notably, the presence of overweight at the initiation of the follow‐up exhibited a significant association with the development of obesity after a two‐year period ( χ 2 = 5.325, p = 0.021). Furthermore, logistic regression analysis indicated that participants classified as “overweight” at the outset of the study were 4.7 times more likely (95% CI = 1.156–19.754) to develop obesity compared to their eutrophic counterparts. Conclusion The study establishes a clear link between overweight status and the medium‐term development of obesity in school‐age children, aged between 6 and 11 years. These findings underscore the need for early intervention strategies and targeted preventive measures to address this concerning health issue.
Association of sociodemographic factors, lifestyle behaviors, anthropometric measures, and cardiometabolic health markers with blood pressure in adolescents: A cross-sectional analysis Fábio Nascimento-da-Silva, João Rafael Valentim-Silva, César Arruda Meschiari, Ildercílio Mota de Souza Lima, Dartagnan Pinto Guedes, Juliano Casonatto Peerj, 2025 Introduction Evidence suggests that hypertension in adulthood may have its origins in childhood and adolescence. In this context, previous studies have demonstrated an association between lifestyle behaviors and nutritional status, both of which are linked to elevated blood pressure. Objective To examine the association between sociodemographic factors, subjective perception of health, lifestyle behaviors, anthropometric measurements, and cardiometabolic health markers with blood pressure in a sample of Brazilian adolescents. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted with 273 adolescents (56% girls), aged 14–20 years, from Rio Branco, Acre, Amazon Region of Brazil. Data were collected using self-reported questionnaires and direct measurements, including anthropometric indices, cardiometabolic biomarkers, and blood pressure. Data were analyzed using chi-square tests and binary logistic regression models. Linear regression, adjusted by all variables, including dimension (sub-category) and age, was used to verify if the independent variables were associated with elevated blood pressure among adolescents. Results Significant associations were observed between elevated blood pressure and the male sex (OR = 2.56; 95% CI [1.11–5.86], p = 0.026) and rural residency (OR = 3.65; 95% CI [1.44–9.21], p = 0.006). Aerobic activity presented a significant association with elevated blood pressure (OR = 8.04; 95% CI [1.04–61.65], p = 0.045). Waist circumference increased the likelihood of elevated blood pressure (OR = 5.43; 95% CI [1.34–21.94], p = 0.018). Cardiometabolic markers, such as fasting glucose, demonstrated a significant association with elevated blood pressure (OR = 2.43; 95% CI [1.00–5.90], p = 0.048). No significant associations were found for muscle-strengthening activity, screen time, sleep duration, or food intake. Conclusion Our findings emphasize the crucial role of sociodemographic factors, especially the male sex and rural residency, in predicting elevated blood pressure among adolescents. Adolescents who perform the recommended amount of aerobic activity and who present acceptable fasting glucose values during adolescence are less likely to present high blood pressure. Waist circumference together with other anthropometric measurements might be a useful indicator for screening elevated blood pressure risk. These findings highlight the necessity for early detection, targeted interventions, and personalized strategies to reduce the hypertension risk and improve cardiometabolic health in the young population.
Sarcopenia in Senior Subjects with Hip Fracture: Study of Prevalence, Correlation with Obesity, and Ultrasonography of the Rectus Femoris Muscle Maurício Rodrigues Miyasaki, Juliano Casonatto, Carolina Morgato de Mello Miyasaki, Bruno Leguizamón Baruki, Yano Altomar de Sá, Rodrigo Antonio Carvalho Andraus Revista Brasileira De Ortopedia, 2025 Resumo Determinar a prevalência de provável sarcopenia em pacientes idosos com fraturas de quadril e avaliar a correlação entre as medidas ultrassonográficas do reto femoral, obesidade e diagnóstico de sarcopenia. Sessenta e cinco participantes com idade ≥ 60 anos hospitalizados com fraturas de quadril foram incluídos. O questionário SARC-F foi aplicado e a circunferência da panturrilha e a força de preensão manual foram medidas. A espessura bilateral do reto femoral e a área de secção transversal foram avaliadas por ultrassonografia. Provável sarcopenia foi identificada em 13 participantes (20,6%). A espessura média do reto femoral foi de 1,03 cm (desvio padrão [DP] = 0,22) para a coxa direita e 1,03 cm (DP = 0,23) para a coxa esquerda. A área de secção transversal média foi de 2,61 cm2 (DP = 0,71) na coxa direita e 2,97 cm2 (DP = 0,69) na coxa esquerda. A circunferência média da panturrilha foi de 31 cm (DP = 4,29) para a perna direita e 31 cm (DP = 4,31) para a esquerda. Não foram encontradas correlações entre as medidas ultrassonográficas do reto femoral e a sarcopenia provável. Indivíduos com sobrepeso e fratura de quadril apresentaram quatro vezes mais chances de apresentar o diagnóstico de sarcopenia provável. A prevalência de sarcopenia provável foi de 20,6%. Não foi observada correlação entre as medidas ultrassonográficas do reto femoral e sarcopenia. O sobrepeso esteve significativamente associado a um aumento de quatro vezes na probabilidade de sarcopenia provável nessa população.
Nutritional Status and Cardiac Autonomic Function: A Cross-Sectional Analysis of Heart Rate Variability in High Socioeconomic Status Schoolchildren Aline Giselle Nagafuchi, Adeluci Moraes, Jessica Christiane Yoshihara Dias, Kamila Grandolfi, Raphael Gustavo Testa, Andreo Fernando Aguiar, Juliano Casonatto Current Nutrition and Food Science, 2025 Introduction: The impact of nutritional status on cardiac autonomic function in adolescents from high socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds, as defined by the Brazilian Economic Classification Criteria, remains unclear, particularly regarding heart rate variability (HRV) parameters. This study aimed to examine associations between nutritional categories (normal weight/overweight/obese) and HRV indices in adolescents from high-SES families. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 201 adolescents aged 11–14 years. HRV was assessed via RMSSD, pNN50, LF, HF, and LF/HF ratio. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and chi-square tests. Results: No significant HRV differences existed across nutritional status: RMSSD (normal: 193.49 ± 246.92ms vs. obese: 168.55 ± 162.43ms; p=0.605), pNN50 (33.39 ± 21.81% vs. 27.71 ± 20.67%; p=0.532), LF (55.85 ± 17.03nu vs. 61.74 ± 16.32nu; p=0.506), HF (155.27 ± 727.00nu vs. 38.10 ± 16.20nu; p=0.629), and LF/HF ratio (1.80 ± 1.57 vs. 2.03 ± 1.29; p=0.951). The values have been expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Chi-square tests confirmed no excess weight-HRV associations (all p>0.30). Discussion: The findings suggested that, among adolescents from high socioeconomic backgrounds, excess weight may not significantly impact cardiac autonomic modulation as measured by HRV. This challenges commonly held assumptions about early autonomic impairment in overweight youth and highlights the potential moderating role of lifestyle and environmental factors. Broader implications point to the need for context-specific cardiovascular risk assessments in pediatric populations. Conclusion: Nutritional status showed no association with HRV parameters in high-SES adolescents. Given the cross-sectional design and the relatively low number of obese participants, the findings of this study should be interpreted with caution. Nevertheless, they suggest preserved autonomic function regardless of nutritional status and emphasize potential protective lifestyle factors in this population.
