Effective roles of exercise and diet adherence in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)is characterized by symptoms of excessive fat accumulation and steatosis in the liver without alcohol intake in patients.The associated pathogenic mechanism is not completely understood and there are no specific drugs for patients with NAFLD.Exercise and diet adherence are the best options for the management of NAFLD patients.Questionnaire associated analysis models of adherence to these interventions are used to assess their effectiveness in the management of NAFLD patients using specificity,sensitivity,and so on.Studies have indicated that the relative ratio of NAFLD can be reduced by physical activity with diet control.In the future,the pathogenesis of NAFLD should be clarified with stratified efforts to develop appropriate drugs,and both exercise and diet adherence should be optimized using better questionnaire design and evaluation models for patients with NAFLD.

Pregnant Women with Diabetes under the Novel COVID-19 Pneumonia Epidemic Home Protection and Diet and Exercise Management

Under the epidemic situation of novel COVID-19 pneumonia, pregnant women belong to the susceptible population, and their physiological and psychological conditions are particularly worthy of attention. Diabetes patients during pregnancy may have a variety of complications, which can have a serious adverse impact on their own and fetal health. This article elaborates on home protection and diet and exercise guidance for pregnant women with diabetes in order to provide guidance for pregnant women with diabetes in a special period, and further prevent and control the pneumonia epidemic caused by novel COVID-19 infection in pregnant women.

Validation of adherence prediction system for lifestyle interventions in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

This editorial delves into the research article by Zeng et al published in the latest issue of World Journal of Gastroenterology.The manuscript contributes significantly to addressing the global health issue of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)by introducing and validating the Exercise and Diet Adherence Scale(EDAS).The article effectively conveys the importance of the study,highlighting the prevalence of NAFLD,the lack of approved drugs for its treatment,and the crucial role of lifestyle correction.The use of the Delphi method for scale development and the subsequent evaluation of its reliability add scientific rigor to the methodology.The results demonstrate that the scale is correlated with key lifestyle indicators,which makes it a promising tool for assessing patient adherence to interventions.The identification of specific score thresholds for predicting adherence to daily calorie intake and exercise adds practical value to the scale.The differentiation among scores indicative of good,average,and poor adherence enhances its clinical applicability.In conclusion,the manuscript introduces EDAS,a valuable instrument that can contribute substantially to the field of NAFLD research and clinical practice.

Diet Guidelines Stress Exercise for First Time

美国有一个每四年公布一次的dietary guidelines(食品指导),它被誉为gold standard of nutritional information。今年修正的dietary guidelines增加了新的exercise的内容,非常引人注目:The new guideliner recommend that bothadults and children get at least 30 minutes of physical activity daily in order tolower the risk of heart disease,colon(结肠)cancer and diabetes(糖尿病;多尿症).本文最幽默的一句话是:Although you don’t eat exercise,it’s the second half ofthe energy balance equation.(虽然你不吃“运动”,可是,运动却是能量收支平衡的另一部分。)此话非常形象地道出了运动的重要性。本文强调了所谓healthyliving,每日的饮食应该是:We should choose more whole-grain foods and a varietyof fruits and vegetables every day.美国总统克林顿亲自公布了这个新的食品指导,报道还顺便透露了总统本人的一些“隐私”,读来让人颇生联想: 1/…who(指克林顿)has a well-documented(被证明了的)appetite for not-very-healthy food. 2/Clinton,a regular jogger(慢跑者)until a knee injury in 1997.本文的另一个重要信息是:少吃糖！…the final version calls for Americans to
