Breastfeeding in the Modern World
Background: Social changes in the 20th century resulted in substantial reductions in the prevalence of breastfeeding in many countries but especially in those with high and increasing wealth. Concerns about this decline prompted widespread research to quantify the benefits of breastfeeding and the mechanisms by which it exerts protective effects for mothers and children. Pro-breastfeeding advocacy resulted in the WHO International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes in 1981 and the Innocenti Declaration on Breastfeeding in 1990, which, together with numerous other initiatives, have helped to turn the tide.

The Impact of a Self-Management Program Based on the 5 A's Model on Type 1 Diabetes in School-Aged Children
Conclusions: Self-management and self-care models, particularly the 5A model, are helpful at improving the control of these symptoms, reducing associated problems, enhancing nursing care, and enhancing patients' quality of life. Increasing the duration of a self-management programmer based on the 5 A's model for children with type 1 diabetes reduces negative attitudes and improves quality of life, but requires follow-up.

The Changing Landscape of Children ’s Diet and Nutrition: New Threats, New Opportunities
Background: Over the last 30 –40 years, we have seen an improvement in global child undernutrition, with major reductions in wasting and stunting. Meanwhile, childhood obesity has dramatically increased, initially in high-income populations and subsequently in the more economically vulnerable. These trends are related to sign ificant changes in diet and external factors, including new environmental threats.Summary: Obesity rates first increased in older children, then gradually in infants. And in the next couple of years, there will be more overweight and obese than moderately or severely underweight children in the worl...

Metabolism and the Effect of Animal-Derived Oxysterols in the Diet on the Development of Alzheimer ’s Disease
Background: The rapid worldwide increase in the incidence of Alzheimer ’s disease is associated with changing nutrition patterns. Recently, some articles have highlighted the link between Alzheimer’s disease and dietary cholesterol. It was found that elevated levels of some of its fractions in the brain and circulation affect metabolism.Summary: Previous studies have considered the relationship between Alzheimer ’s disease and oxidized cholesterol molecules in the brain. To date, there are limited data available on the relationship between oxidized cholesterol in the brain and Alzheimer’s disease. There is a link b...

The Development and Evaluation of the Nutritional Risk Screening Tool for Preterm Infants from Birth to Corrected Age Four Months Old: A Pilot Study
Conclusion: NRSP subscale 1 was acceptable and reliable in predicting underweight, but the validity in predicting stunting or microcephaly was slightly mild. Further investigations are required to authenticate NRSP subscale 1 ’s effectiveness.Ann Nutr Metab (Source: Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism)

There Is a Clinical Need to Consider the Physical Activity: Sedentary Pattern in Children with Obesity – Position Paper of the European Childhood Obesity Group
Conclusion: There is a need to decrease SED behaviors irrespective of MVPA and to consider PA-SED patterns in youth with obesity. The ECOG encourages anti-obesity strategies targeting both PA and SED behaviors to support the shift from long periods of SED time, especially screen time, to daily routines incorporating bouts of PA. Stepwise or sequential approaches to movement behavior counseling might start with targeting SED at first to decrease cardiometabolic risks when implementing MVPA is not yet possible.Ann Nutr Metab (Source: Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism)

Metabolic and Metabolomics Insights into Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Background: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the most common form of heart muscle disease characterized by progressive dilatation and ventricular dysfunction. Metabolomics is an emerging and powerful discipline that provides a global information on the phenotype of mammalian systems via the study of endogenous and exogenous metabolites in cells, tissues, and biofluids. These studies aid in the identification of biomarkers to prevent diseases in later life or help to early detect onset of diseases as well as aiding in the elucidation of disease mechanisms.Summary: Metabolomics provides a unique opportunity to discover novel ...
