Impact of Diet Containing Grape Pomace on Growth Performance and Blood Lipid Profile of Young Rats
Ivy Smith,Jianmei Yu,Steven L. Hurley,Tracy Hanner 한국식품영양과학회 2017 Journal of medicinal food Vol.20 No.6
Grape pomace (GP), the residue of grapes after wine making, is rich in dietary polyphenols and fiber, and it has potential to serve as a functional food ingredient to improve health. However, high polyphenol diets have also been reported to inhibit the growth of young animals and cause liver necrosis. This study investigated the effect of diets containing different amounts of GP on the growth performance and blood lipid profile by using a young rat model. Twenty female Sprague–Dawley rats of age 7 weeks were randomly divided into four groups that were fed AIN-93G diets that were modified by substituting 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% of carbohydrate with GP for 10 weeks (the diets, thus, obtained contained 0%, 6.9%, 13.8%, and 20.7% of GP). The group fed original AIN-93G (0% GP) was used as control. Feed consumption, body weight, length, and height were recorded weekly. Blood samples were taken biweekly to analyze plasma lipid profile. At the end of the feeding period, the rats were fasted overnight and euthanized by exsanguination under anesthesia. Livers, hearts, and kidneys were collected, and their weights were recorded. Results show that the diet containing a maximum of 20.7% of GP did not influence the body weights, lengths, and heights of rats. As the GP content increased, the blood triglyceride and very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) decreased, the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) increased slightly but were statistically significant, and total cholesterol remained constant. In conclusion, GP in the AIN-93G diet did not influence the growth performance of young rats, but it exhibited both positive and negative effects on the blood lipid profile.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of demographic profile of pregnant women with six dimensions of Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II (HPLP-II). Methods: A non-experimental descriptive correlation design was utilized, 35 pregnant women in poor communities in Manila, Philippines were selected using purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using correlational analysis with Spearman's rank-order correlation. Results: Majority (57.1%) are in their second decade of life (20-29), 40% completed high school, a significant 45.7% has a gravida of 2, mostly were married accounting to 65.7% and 65.7% of total study population barely earn Php 5000 monthly. Analysis revealed moderate level of health promoting behaviors of pregnant women having interpersonal relations of 2.8(0.48) and spiritual growth of 2.76 (0.53) as the highly recognized dimension of the subjects. Correlating demographic variables such as maternal age, educational attainment, gravida, income and civil status, income showed statistical significance with dimensions of health responsibility and physical activity. Conclusion: Health care professionals should recognize that mothers may have necessary knowledge on health promoting activities but may be constrained to engaging because of economic limitations. Consideration on economic capacity should be initiated along with care intervention options available for pregnant women.
Effectiveness of Kangaroo Mother care in Low Birth Weight Infants

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) compared to Conventional Method Care (CMC) in improving physiologic outcomes of low birth weight (LBW) infants across diverse culture. Methods: Published randomized controlled trial studies from 1997 - 2007 were searched using CINAHL, MEDLINE, PubMed and Cochrane showing the effects of KMC. Meta - analysis was carried out using calculation of Relative Risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI), mean and effect size for dichotomous and continuous outcomes. Results: 6 out of 14 studies qualified for inclusion criteria. The use of KMC showed improvement in oxygen saturation, daily weight gain and length of hospital stay (effect sizes of 1.28, 0.54 and 0.18, respectively). 2 out of 6 studies showed significant result in improving body temperature and anthropometric measurements such as head circumference and length (effect size 0.48 and 0.32). KMC was found to be associated with decreasing mortality rate among infants. Conclusion: The evidence from this study supports the use of KMC in improving the physiologic outcomes and decrease the mortality rate among LBW infants. Further interventional studies are recommended to evaluate the effects of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) among premature infants.

The rapid increase in diabetes prevalence globally has contributed to large increases in health care expenditure on diabetic complications,posing a major health burden to countries worldwide. Asians are commonly observed to have poorer β-cell function and greaterinsulin resistance compared to the Caucasian population, which is attributed by their lower lean body mass and central obesity. This “double phenotype” as well as the rising prevalence of young onset diabetes in Asia has placed Asians with diabetes at high riskof cardiovascular and renal complications, with cancer emerging as an important cause of morbidity and mortality. The experiencefrom Hong Kong had demonstrated that a multifaceted approach, involving team-based integrated care, information technologicaladvances, and patient empowerment programs were able to reduce the incidence of diabetic complications, hospitalizations, andmortality. System change and public policies to enhance implementation of such programs may provide solutions to combat the burgeoninghealth problem of diabetes at a societal level.

Jamero Ivy D,Alforte Ayleen A,Tajanlangit,Arra Shen A,Tabuyo Jimford U 한국문화관광학회 2019 문화관광연구 Vol.21 No.1
Food tourism plays an important role in the tourist enterprise. Gastronomic experiences become known as a strategic commodity in branding food tourism destinations. There are tourists seeking authentic food in a certain place to satisfy their gastronomic experiences. This paper addressed the factors that motivate tourists to visit food tourist destinations and how affected the five influential factors of food tourism branding. The study was a quantitative research and used the convenience sampling method. Additionally, survey questionnaires were distributed to gather information from 100 respondents who were customers from selected restaurants in San Pablo, Laguna. The research design was then validated by the thesis adviser. The analysis of variance and t-test were used to identify the patterns of the criteria of the responses gathered. The findings showed under the influential factor Service Providers that the staffs are wellmannered and job-oriented, which strengthened the brand of the restaurant. Under the influential factor Payment , the selected restaurants used a competitive pricing system for the customers to afford a wide variety of food and services. Under the influential factor Advertisement , there are no other forms of advertisement aside from their logos. Under the influential factor Food Variety and Quality , there is certain uniqueness in the food served. Lastly, under the influential factor Distinctive Style of Cooking , the restaurants have their own signature dish and were properly presented to the customers.
