Self-reported caffeine consumption miss-matched consumption measured by plasma levels of caffeine and its metabolites: results from two population-based studies
ConclusionSelf-reports of no or low caffeine consumption and consumption of more than 3 –5 cups of coffee should be interpreted with caution, with possible under- or over-estimation. Quantifying plasma levels of caffeine and its metabolites may contribute to a better estimation of caffeine intake. (Source: European Journal of Nutrition)

Associations between dietary diversity and dyslipidemia among Japanese workers: cross-sectional study and longitudinal study findings
ConclusionsThe results of cross-sectional analysis in this study suggest that the higher diversity of diet might reduce the presence of dyslipidemia in men and the results of longitudinal analysis suggest that a moderate DDS might reduce the risk of dyslipidemia in women. Further studies are needed since the results of cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses in this study were inconsistent. (Source: European Journal of Nutrition)

Association of healthy diet score and adiposity with risk of colorectal cancer: findings from the UK Biobank prospective cohort study
ConclusionAdiposity-mediated effects were limited in the link between dietary patterns and CRC incidence, implying that solely addressing adiposity may not sufficiently reduce CRC risk. Interventions, such as improving dietary quality in people with adiposity or promoting weight control in those with unhealthy eating habits, may provide an effective strategy to reduce CRC risk.

Network meta-analysis of probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics for the treatment of chronic constipation in adults
ConclusionsModerate to very low evidence supports the use of lactulose and synbiotics to increase the number of weekly stool movements in patients, particularly highlighting the significant impact of synbiotics in increasing the number of weekly stool movements in patients with constipation. The use of L. paracasei showed improvements in PAC-SYM scores, while L. reuteri demonstrated enhancements in PAC-QoL scores. (Source: European Journal of Nutrition)
