The Caffeine Dilemma: Unraveling the Intricate Relationship Between Caffeine Use Disorder, Caffeine Withdrawal Symptoms, and Mental Wellbeing in Adults
CONCLUSIONS: The study concluded that caffeine, while recognized for its potential health benefits, also exhibits properties that may lead to addiction. The development of caffeine use disorder and cessation of caffeine intake can increase DASS levels in adults, indicating the need for awareness and appropriate interventions in public health nutrition.PMID:38305102 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980024000399 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Evaluation of three prediction formulas of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion in Chinese residents: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: The meta-analysis suggested that the Tanaka formula performed a more accurate estimate in Chinese population. Time of collecting spot urine specimens and sodium intake level of the sample population might be the main factors affecting the accuracy of the formula estimation.PMID:38305112 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980024000168 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Longitudinal Changes in Home Food Availability and Concurrent Associations with Food and Nutrient Intake Among Children at 24 to 48 Months
CONCLUSION: These findings offer novel insight into changes in home food availability and associations with food and nutrient intake during early childhood. Additional attention is needed examining antecedents (e.g., built environments, purchasing behaviors) and consequences (e.g., child diet quality, weight) of home food availability.PMID:38305130 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980024000375 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Mediators and moderators of the effects of a school-based intervention on adolescents' fruit and vegetable consumption: the HEIA study
CONCLUSIONS: Since none of the targeted determinants could explain the increase in FV consumption, it remains unclear why the intervention was effective. Reporting on a wide range of mediators and moderators in school-based interventions is needed to reveal the pathways through which intervention effects are achieved.PMID:38269621 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980024000260 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Parliamentary reaction to the announcement and implementation of the UK Soft Drinks Industry Levy: applied thematic analysis of 2016-2020 parliamentary debates
CONCLUSIONS: After the announcement, the SDIL had cross-party support and was recognised to have encouraged reformulation prior to implementation. Lessons for governments indicate that the combination of cross-party support and a policy's documented success in achieving its aim can help cement the resilience of it to opposition and threats of repeal.PMID:38263748 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980024000247 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

South East Asian Nutrition Surveys II (SEANUTS II) Thailand: Triple burden of malnutrition among Thai children aged 6 months to 12 years
CONCLUSIONS: The high prevalence of stunting and anemia among children aged 1-3.9 years and overweight and obesity among children aged 7-12.9 years requires continued attention. While prevalence of biochemical micronutrient deficiencies was not high (except for iron), high prevalence of dietary inadequacies for several micronutrients warrants further in-depth investigations.PMID:38250788 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980024000053 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)
