Abstract

Mung bean (Vigna radiata) is a widely consumed legume rich in high-quality protein. The development of enteral formulas using mung beans as a raw material represents a promising alternative nutritional approach for dementia patients with impaired oral intake. This study aimed to investigate the effects of different pre-treatment methods on the nutritional density, physical properties, and amino acid profile of mung bean–based enteral formulas. Three formulations were prepared: boiled mung bean blenderized formula (FA), steamed mung bean blenderized formula (FB), and powdered mung bean blenderized formula (FC). Proximate composition and viscosity were assessed in all formulas. The formula with the highest protein and most favorable proximate profile was further analyzed for amino acid composition and antioxidant activity. Pre-treatment significantly affected energy, protein, fat, carbohydrate, and water content (p <0.05) but not viscosity. The powdered mung bean formula exhibited the highest protein concentration, with glutamic acid (5340.93 µg/g) and isoleucine (3033.71 µg/g) being the most abundant amino acids. It also demonstrated antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 60,719.07 mg/L.This study provided that the powdered mung bean formula has potential to become an enteral formulation for dementia.

Abstract

Anemia is a common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing hemodialysis. Anemia in CKD is multifactorial, including impaired erythropoiesis, iron deficiency, and chronic eammation. Adequate nutrient intake plays an essential role in hemoglobin synthesis, anemia management, and improving patient’s quality of life. This study aimed to determine the association between protein, iron, folate, and vitamin C intakes with hemoglobin levels in CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis at Haji Regional Public Hospital, East Java Province. This study used quantitative with cross-sectional design. Purposive sampling was applied, involving 54 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. Data on protein, iron, folate, and vitamin C intakes were collected through direct interviews using semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire on previous month, while hemoglobin data were obtained from the most recent labolatory recods. Bivariate analysis used the Pearson Corelation test for protein intake and Hb level, while the Spearman test for iron, folate, and vitamin C intakes and Hb level. The results showed that protein intake was significantly associated with hemoglobin level (p=<0.001), with a moderate positive correlation (r=0.45). In contrast, iron, folate, and vitamin C intake were not significantly associated with hemoglobin level (p>0.05). Adequate protein intake, [articularly high biological value anemial protein, is required to compenste for protein losses following dialysis. Personalized protein management based on urea burden, metabolic acidosis, phosphorus status, and comorbidities may support improvements in hemoglobin level without exacerbating renal metabolic burden.
