Eating out intensity, ultra-processed foods and body mass index among Albanian youth
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings provide evidence for the hypothesis that eating OH plays an important role in the association of UPFs and UMPFs with BMI in youth. While causality cannot be established due to cross-sectional design, to the best of our knowledge, we provide the first assessment of UPFs and UMPFs intake in a south-eastern European setting, while highlighting the need for establishing and integrating youth nutrition into national nutritional surveillance systems for key dietary risk factors in Albania.PMID:37842793 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023002173 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Retrospective analysis of persistent HyperCKemia with or without muscle weakness in a case series from Greece highlights vast heterogeneous DMD gene variants
CONCLUSIONS: Some 50% of hyperCKemia cases were characterized as dystrophinopathies, highlighting that DMD variants may be considered the most common cause of hyperCKemia in Greece. Delineation of the broad genetic and clinical heterogeneity is fundamental for actionable public health decisions and theragnosis, as well as the establishment of guidelines addressing ethical considerations, especially related to the mild asymptomatic patient subgroup.PMID:37754746 | DOI:10.1080/14737159.2023.2264181 (Source: Expert Review of Molecular Diagnostics)
