ABSTRACT The sensory profile, referring to sight, smell, taste, hearing, and touch, plays an essential role in optimizing the habitual intake of energy and macronutrients. However, specific populations, such as older adults, are known to have impaired energy intake. In this paper, the relevance of sensory impairments in this older population is described, and the extent to which nutritional and physical activity interventions can modulate these sensory responses when food intake is insufficient is explored. With aging, all senses deteriorate, and in most cases, such deteriorations diminish the nutritional response. The only exception is sight, for which both positive and negative impacts on nutritional response have been reported. From a prevention perspective, nutritional interventions have been understudied, and to date, only hearing is known to be positively affected by a good nutritional profile. In comparison, physical activity has been more frequently studied in this context, and is linked to an improved preservation of 4 senses. Regarding treatment, very few studies have directly targeted sensory training, and the focus of research has tended to be on nutrition and physical activity intervention. Sensory training, and nutritional and physical activity treatments all have beneficial effects on the senses. In the future, researchers should focus on exploring gaps in the literature specifically concerning prevention, treatment, and sensory response to understand how to improve the efficacy of current approaches. In order to maintain sensory acuity and recover from sensory impairment, the current state of knowledge supports the importance of improving nutritional habits as well as physical activity early on in life. A combined approach, linking a detailed lifestyle profile with the assessment of numerous senses and one or more interventional approaches (nutrition, physical activity, sensory training, etc.), would be required to identify effective strategies to improve the nutritional state of older individuals.

Abstract Background Hypoglycaemia is a common and potentially avoidable adverse event in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). It can reduce quality of life, increase healthcare costs, and reduce treatment success. We investigated self-management issues associated with hypoglycaemia and self-identified causes of hypoglycaemia in these patients. Methods In this mixed methods study qualitative semi-structured interviews were performed, which informed a subsequent quantitative survey in T2D patients. All interviews were audio recorded, transcribed verbatim and coded independently by two coders using directed content analysis, guided by the Theoretical Domains Framework. Descriptive statistics were used to quantify the self-management issues and causes of hypoglycaemia collected in the survey for the respondents that had experienced at least one hypoglycaemic event in the past. Results Sixteen participants were interviewed, aged 59–84 years. Participants perceived difficulties in managing deviations from routine, and they sometimes lacked procedural knowledge to adjust medication, nutrition or physical activity to manage their glucose levels. Grief and loss of support due to the loss of a partner interfered with self-management and lead to hypoglycaemic events. Work ethic lead some participant to overexerting themselves, which in turn lead to hypoglycaemic events. The participants had difficulties preventing hypoglycaemic events, because they did not know the cause, suffered from impaired hypoglycaemia awareness and/or did not want to regularly measure their blood glucose. When they did recognise a cause, they identified issues with nutrition, physical activity, stress or medication. In total, 40% of respondents reported regular stress as an issue, 24% reported that they regularly overestimated their physical abilities, and 22% indicated they did not always know how to adjust their medication. Around 16% of patients could not always remember whether they took their medication, and 42% always took their medication at regular times. Among the 83 respondents with at least one hypoglycaemic event, common causes for hypoglycaemia mentioned were related to physical activity (67%), low food intake (52%), deviations from routine (35%) and emotional burden (28%). Accidental overuse of medication was reported by 10%. Conclusion People with T2D experience various issues with self-managing their glucose levels. This study underlines the importance of daily routine and being able to adjust medication in relation to more physical activity or less food intake as well as the ability to reduce and manage stress to prevent hypoglycaemic events.

Background: Studies have found associations between genetic polymorphisms, food intake, physical activity, body mass index, and metabolic syndrome (METs). Objective: We hypothesized that a genetic risk score (GRS) with food intake and physical activity are influenced by mediational and interaction effects to increase METs among White and African American adults. Methods: We used the Atherosclerosis Risk In Communities (ARIC) study data at the third visit from 1996-1998. Data included 8,416 Whites and 2,061 African Americans aged 41-71y with 1,484 and 517 cases of METs, respectively. METs was defined according to the International Diabetes Federation criteria. Dietary data were obtained from the ARIC study food frequency questionnaire. The GRS was composed of eight single nucleotide polymorphisms involved in cardiovascular and lipid metabolism, known to have defects in protein binding and function. Mediational path analysis using linear-and-logistic regression was used to test simultaneous associations, and interaction using multivariate logistic regression tested relationships between the GRS, food intake, physical activity and METs. In mediational path analysis, Root Mean Square Error of Approximation, p>0.05, Comparative Factor Index, p>0.90, Tucker-Lewis Index, p>0.90, and chi-square test, p>0.05 were used to assess statistical significance. For interaction using logistic regression analysis, odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals with p<0.05 were used to judge statistical significance. Results: In multivariate logistic regression, the GRS was associated with a 22% increased risk for METs among Whites (OR=1.22; 1.03-1.44), while this association was not significant in African Americans. After adjustment for Bonferonni correction for mass significance (p<0.001), we found among Whites that energy-adjusted total fat, animal fat, caloric intake, sugar-sweetened drinks, red meat, fried foods, and processed meats were associated with higher risk for METs, while energy-adjusted total carbohydrates, crude fiber, dietary fiber, and cereal fiber had a protective association with METs. These results were similar in African Americans but did not meet Bonferonni significance. In mediational analysis, we observed insignificant mediational effects, but significant direct effects for the GRS to METs for physical activity (OR=1.164; p=0.047) and fish intake (OR=1.161; p=0.050) among Whites and for carbohydrate intake (OR=1.164; p=0.058) and drinks consumed (OR=4.445; p<0.0000) among overweight/obese Whites. In interaction models, energy-adjusted carbohydrate, protein, animal fat, fructose, and sugary drinks interacted with the GRS to affect METs among Whites, but not African Americans. Conclusion: A GRS operates through interaction with dietary factors and physical activity rather than by their mediational effects on METs among White adults.
