Nutrition in critically ill patients is a complex, dynamic, and individualized component of care, intimately linked with outcomes such as morbidity, mortality, length of stay, and recovery trajectories. Historically, the approach to nutritional management in intensive care units (ICUs) has been guided by static protocols, clinician experience, and limited data-driven personalization. However, the advent of AI has heralded a new paradigm—one where algorithms are capable of synthesizing massive volumes of patient-specific and population-level data to optimize nutritional strategies in real-time. This abstract explores the evolving role of AI in the nutritional management of critically ill patients, elucidating its current capabilities, transformative potential, and the nuanced challenges inherent in its implementation.</p> 2025-09-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Joseph Varon https://www.worldnutrijournal.org/OJS/index.php/WNJ/article/view/WNJ.V09.S1.0002 The role of nutrition in the prevention of iron deficiency anemia 2025-09-29T06:10:35+00:00 Nurul Ratna Manikam nurul.ratna@hotmail.com <p>The prevalence of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) among children under five is approximately 25%.

In contemporary intensive care units, nutritional support transcends traditional caloric and protein matching; it demands a responsive, multifactorial approach that acknowledges microbial ecology and dynamic metabolic states. These scientific advancements hold promise for redefining nutritional protocols and enhancing patient outcomes in critical care.</p> <p>The gut microbiome, often termed "the forgotten organ," significantly impacts immune function, energy metabolism, and mucosal health. Similarly, metabolomics—the study of small molecular byproducts of cellular processes—provides real-time insight into patient physiology. Combined, these tools are propelling a revolution in personalized nutritional interventions in the ICU.</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> 2025-09-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Santiago Herrero https://www.worldnutrijournal.org/OJS/index.php/WNJ/article/view/WNJ.V09.S1.0007 ICU nutrition in the UK : How we do it? 2025-09-29T06:08:46+00:00 Nandita Divekar nanditadivekar@hotmail.com <p>Optimal nutritional support has a fundamental role in the management of critically ill patients.</p> <p>It has a significant impact on morbidity, mortality and patient outcomes.

The types of ASF consumed may have contributed to this.</p> <p><strong>Objective:</strong> This study aims to investigate the association between ASF intake and height-for-age Z-scores (HAZ) among preschool children aged 4–6 years in Jakarta.</p> 2025-09-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Agus Hidayatulloh, Umi Fahmida, Risatianti Kolopaking, Titus Priyo Harjatmo, Pritasari Pritasari https://www.worldnutrijournal.org/OJS/index.php/WNJ/article/view/WNJ.V09.S1.0026 The association between nutrition knowledge and attitude towards dietary intake among competitive elite athletes in DKI Jakarta 2025-09-29T06:02:59+00:00 Maulana Malik Ibrahim maulana.malik.by@gmail.com Luh Ade Ari Wiradnyani awiradnyani@seameo-recfon.org Mury Kuswari mury@esaunggul.ac.id <p><strong>Background: </strong>Good nutritional knowledge is important for athletes to develop positive attitude and proper dietary practices, especially supporting training, competition, and peak performance. Lack of knowledge can lead to energy and nutrient imbalances, which can disrupt physiological adaptation, recovery, and athletic performance. Unlike previous studies on knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP), which generally only assess questionnaire scores on eating practices without directly analyzing dietary intake, this study takes a different approach by directly analyzing dietary intake and considering differences between rest days and training days.</p> <p><strong>Objectives:</strong> To analyze the association between nutritional knowledge and attitudes towards dietary intake among competitive elite athletes in DKI Jakarta.</p> 2025-09-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Maulana Malik Ibrahim, Luh Ade Ari Wiradnyani, Mury Kuswari https://www.worldnutrijournal.org/OJS/index.php/WNJ/article/view/WNJ.V09.S1.0027 The role of vitamin D and fish oil supplementation in a critically ill myasthenia crisis patient: A case report 2025-09-29T06:02:43+00:00 Beatrice Cynthia Walter beatrice.walter@uib.edu Fachrul Jamal jamal61aceh@gmail.com Indah Mutiara Youlpi indahmyoulpi@gmail.com Andi Sarikawan Gurning andigurning1987@gmail.com <p><strong>Background and objectives: </strong>Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare, chronic autoimmune disease with an incidence of 1.7-28 cases per 1,000,000 person-years. It can progress to myasthenic crisis (MC), a life-threatening complication characterized by respiratory failure. Most MC patients require mechanical ventilation (MV) and often have trouble during MV weaning. This case report aims to describe the potential role of vitamin D and fish oil supplementation in facilitating MV weaning in a patient with MC in the intensive care unit (ICU).</p> 2025-09-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Beatrice Cynthia Walter, Fachrul Jamal, Indah Mutiara Youlpi, Andi Sarikawan Gurning
