Randomized Controlled Trial
Effects of modified foodservice practices in military dining facilities on ad libitum nutritional intake of US army soldiers.
Modifying foodservice practices in military dining facilities could influence ad libitum nutritional intake patterns of soldiers. ⋯ These findings suggest that modest changes in military DFAC serving practices to promote healthy eating and food selection can facilitate positive changes in soldiers' nutritional intake.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Severity of illness influences the efficacy of enteral feeding route on clinical outcomes in patients with critical illness.
Few trials have studied the influence of illness severity on clinical outcomes of different tube-feeding routes. Whether gastric or postpyloric feeding route is more beneficial to patients receiving enteral nutrition remains controversial. ⋯ To optimize nutritional support and taking medical resources into account, the gastric feeding route is recommended for less severely ill patients and the postpyloric feeding route for more severely ill patients.

Biophysiologic outcomes of the Enhancing Adherence in Type 2 Diabetes (ENHANCE) trial.
Behavioral research to improve lifestyle in broadly defined populations of patients with type 2 diabetes is limited. ⋯ Two behavioral approaches to improving general lifestyle management in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus were effective in improving glycemic control, but no significant between-group differences were observed.
