(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-10-18) Santi Meléndez, José de Jesús; Bohórquez Medina, Andrea Lisbet
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined as “persistently elevated albumin excretion in urine (≥ 30 mg/g), reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2), or both for more than 3 months.” Various studies have shown the effect of curcumin on improving inflammatory indicators in CKD patients. This review aimed to evaluate the effect of curcumin supplementation in CKD patients. The methodology followed the five phases of Evidence-Based Nutrition (NuBE) and databases such as PUBMED, SCIELO, DIALNET, EMBASE, and SCOPUS were used to search for information. Fifteen articles were selected for evaluation using the CASPE critical reading tool, ultimately selecting the systematic review with meta-analysis titled “Efficacy and safety of dietary turmeric supplementation in proteinuria in CKD: a systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs” with an A I classification – Strong for evidence and recommendation level. The conclusion, based on critical commentary, is that curcumin is useful for proteinuria in CKD patients and could be used as a therapeutic option. However, more research is needed to determine the optimal dose and duration of curcumin treatment.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2020-12-02) Santi Meléndez, José de Jesús; Bohórquez Medina, Andrea Lisbet
Obesity remains a serious public health problem relevant worldwide even though the related countermeasures are well understood (i.e., mainly physical activity and an adjusted diet). Among different nutritional approaches, there is growing interest in ketogenic diets to improve body mass index and improve fat mass loss. In the present secondary research entitled Critical review: effect of the ketogenic diet on the body composition of adults with overweight and obesity, the objective was to determine the effect of the ketogenic diet on body composition in adults with overweight and obesity. Being the clinical question: Does the ketogenic diet improve body composition (expressed in fat mass, abdominal perimeter, body mass index, body weight) in adult patients with overweight and obesity?, the methodology used was Evidence-Based Nutrition. (NuBE) and the databases that were used to search for the information were PUBMED, HINARI, LILACS, SCIELO, DIALNET, SCOPUS, EMBASE. generating 79 investigations of which 17 articles were selected and evaluated by the CASPE critical reading tool, so in the end the systematic review with meta-analysis titled: “The effect of the ketogenic diet on body composition and anthropometric measurements: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials”; having a level of evidence: BII and Grade of Recommendation: Strong. It is concluded through critical commentary that the ketogenic diet has a better result in reducing body mass index, waist circumference, fat mass, visceral adipose tissue and body fat percentage compared to a low-fat diet.
