摘要:

This study examined the effects of increasing zinc nutriture on the cell mediated immune response of an institutionalized elderly population. A volunteer institutionalized population was identified and nutritional assessment consisting of weighed food intake record and anthropometric measurements was conducted. Zinc status and delayed cutaneous hypersensitivity (DCH) skin tests were administered to determine immune responsiveness. Subjects were supplemented with 15 mg zinc gluconate for 28 days, after which the zinc status and immune status of each subject were reassessed. Results indicated that dietary zinc intakes were inadequate in 67% of the test population. After supplementation, serum zinc levels increased significantly (p<.006), while results of the alkaline phosphatase test indicated no significant change. DCH reactions improved significantly (p<.034) after zinc supplementation.

摘要:

The effect of added dietary fibre on bowel function and calcium balance has been studied in a group of elderly long-stay patients. The results show that a regime of a basic fibre-enriched diet with supplementary bran improves bowel habit in patients with chronic constipation and diarrhoea without effect on serum calcium, phosphate and alkaline phosphatase levels. Unacceptable gastrointestinal side effects had been encountered but did not occur when the supplementary bran was added at ward level.

摘要:

A survey of state units on aging revealed that 43 states and the District of Columbia provide some weekend home delivered meals. In most states meals were provided in only a few areas. There is no national system for reporting weekend delivery. Very few states have data on the extent of weekend meal service. A pilot study to determine the need for home delivered meals indicated that persons receiving home delivered meals 5 days a week were more likely to have an insufficient dietary intake of protein, thiamin, riboflavin, calcium, iron, and phosphorus on weekends than weekdays.
