    Abstract Aims: This research aimed to assess the rate and reliability of routine nurse-completed malnutrition screening and report the prevalence of malnutrition risk on admission to Christchurch Hospital.
    Methods: Student dietitians administered the Malnutrition Screening Tool to patients in three speciality wards within 48 h of admission. Student dietitians' Malnutrition Screening Tool scores were compared against documented nurse-completed Malnutrition Screening Tool scores. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, Fisher's exact test, and Cohen's kappa tests (interrater reliability ⱪ). A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
    Results: Student dietitians, using the Malnutrition Screening Tool, screened 360 (96%) of 377 eligible patients while nurses screened 332 (88%) patients. Student dietitians and nurses screened 119 patients (33%) and 63 patients (18%) respectively at risk of malnutrition. There was fair agreement (ⱪ = 0.311) in Malnutrition Screening Tool total scores between nurses and student dietitians. There was a significant difference in the proportion of patients screened at risk of malnutrition between nurses and student dietitians (p < 0.0001).
    Conclusion: Malnutrition risk remains high in acute care settings. Nurses were less likely to screen patients as at risk of malnutrition than student dietitians. Regular support and training in using Malnutrition Screening Tool may help improve the rate and reliability of routine malnutrition screening.

    Abstract Background: Higher dietary fibre intakes are associated with a reduced risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD), and increasing intake has been shown to reduce blood pressure and other cardiometabolic risk factors. The extent to which dietary fibre can further reduce risk for those with CVD and treated with cardioprotective drugs has not been clearly established. We have examined the evidence for dietary fibre as adjunct therapy in those with CVD or hypertension.
    Methods: Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, PubMed, and CENTRAL were searched to June 2021. Prospective observational studies reporting on fibre intakes and mortality in those with pre-existing CVD and controlled trials of increasing fibre intakes on cardiometabolic risk factors in those with CVD or hypertension were eligible. Outcomes were mortality (studies) and cardiometabolic risk factors (trials). Data synthesis was with random effects and dose response. Certainty of evidence was assessed using GRADE.
    Results: Three prospective studies including 7469 adults with CVD, and 12 trials of 878 adults with CVD or hypertension were identified. Moderate certainty evidence indicates reduced all-cause mortality (relative risk, RR0.75 (95% confidence interval, CI 0.58-0.97)) when comparing higher with lower fibre intakes. Low certainty evidence from trials of adults with cardiovascular disease indicates increasing fibre intakes reduced total (mean difference, MD - 0.42 mmol/L (95%CI - 0.78 to - 0.05) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (MD - 0.47mmol/L (95%CI - 0.85 to - 0.10)). High certainty evidence from trials of adults with hypertension indicates increasing fibre intakes reduces systolic (MD 4.3 mmHg (95% CI 2.2 to 5.8)) and diastolic blood pressure (MD 3.1 mmHg (95% CI 1.7 to 4.4)). Moderate and low certainty evidence indicated improvements in fasting blood glucose (MD 0.48 mmol/L (- 0.91 to - 0.05)) and LDL cholesterol (MD 0.29 mmol/L (95% CI 0.17 to 0.40)). Benefits were observed irrespective of cardioprotective drug use.
    Conclusions: These findings emphasise the likely benefits of promoting greater dietary fibre intakes for patients with CVD and hypertension. Further trials and cohort analyses in this area would increase confidence in these results.

    Abstract Aim: To determine whether higher fibre intakes during childhood or adolescence effect a broad range of intermediate markers of cardiometabolic risk or other health related issues.
    Materials and methods: We used online searches up to January 2020 and manual searches to identify prospective observational studies reporting on childhood or adolescent intakes of dietary fibre, vegetables, fruit and refined or whole grains. Outcomes measured later in life were body weight, blood lipids, blood pressure, glycaemia, bone health, cognition, growth and bowel habits. Potential age-specific ranges for dietary fibre were extrapolated from published adult data.
    Results: We identified 45 publications reporting on 44 354 participants from 30 cohort studies. Mean age at dietary assessment varied from 1 to 19.3 years. Follow-up duration varied from 4 months to 27 years. Although well-conducted studies reported improvements in body weight, blood lipids and glycaemia, the diverse nature of studies precluded meta analysis. The quality of evidence was very low to low given the limited data available per outcome and the inability to synthesize results from multiple studies. Potential dietary fibre intake begins at 13-16 g a day for 2-year-olds and increases until the age of 10 years, when values are comparable with an adult range of 25-30 g a day.
    Conclusions: Given the inconsistency in findings from cohort studies other than an absence of detrimental effects, it seems appropriate that recommendations regarding childhood fibre intake are extrapolated from relevant adult data.
