Do German nutrition interventions for children and adolescents meet quality criteria for program planning and evaluation?
In Germany, a high number of nutrition interventions for children and adolescents is being conducted. However, only five quality indicators were fulfilled by more than 75% of the projects. Because of inadequate evaluation quality, only little evidence for implementation, acceptance, and effectiveness could be found. More evaluation studies are needed to more successfully plan, implement and assess future interventions.
Our study does not support the use of treatment doses of LMWH in any of the studied subgroups of patients with acute ischemic stroke and atrial fibrillation. Age, stroke severity, CRP, and F(1+2) were predictive of poor outcome at 3 months.
