Minimum dietary diversity and the concurrence of stunting and overweight among infants and young children in Yogyakarta, Indonesia
This study aims to examine the association between minimum dietary diversity (MDD) and the concurrence of stunting and overweight (CSO) among children aged 6–23 months.A cross-sectional study was conducted in Sedayu Subdistrict, Bantul District, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. The authors assessed the concurrence of stunting (height-for-age Z-score below −2 standard deviations SD) and overweight/obesity (Body mass index BMI-for-age Z-score above +2 SD) among a total of 189 children aged 6–23 months as the primary outcome. The authors defined MDD as consuming at least four out of seven food groups using a single 24-h ...

Assembling the anaerobic gamma-butyrobetaine to TMA metabolic pathway in < em > Escherichia fergusonii < /em > and confirming its role in TMA production from dietary < em > L- < /em > carnitine in murine models
mBio. 2023 Sep 22:e0093723. doi: 10.1128/mbio.00937-23. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTrimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) is a major pro-atherogenic and pro-thrombotic metaorganismal molecule produced through the initial conversion of the dietary L-carnitine and other precursors into trimethylamine (TMA). We recently identified a dual-microbe anaerobic pathway for the metabolism of L-carnitine into TMA, in which the widely distributed cai operon in Enterobacteriaceae converts L-carnitine into gamma-butyrobetaine (γBB), followed by the degradation of γBB into TMA by the relatively rare gamma-butyrobetaine utilization (gbu) gene...

Association between weight loss agents and elevated liver enzymes: a population-based cross-sectional study
This study aimed to investigate the associations between weight loss agents and elevated liver enzymes at the population-level. We conducted a cross-sectional study using Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) data from 2013 to 2019. This study included 36,259 participants over 20 years of age who completed the questionnaire and had no history of hepatitis, cancer, or renal failure. In these participants, we analyzed associations between weight loss agents and elevated liver enzymes by constructing multiple logistic regression models with adjustment for confounding factors and stratified by sex, a...

Health equity in action: using community-engaged research to update an intervention promoting a healthy home food environment to Black/African American families
CONCLUSION: The Delphi Technique shows promise as a method for conducting community-engaged research that promotes engagement and identifies key information needed to adapt and implement an existing intervention in a community setting.PMID:37736870 | DOI:10.1007/s10552-023-01753-4

Predictors of compliance with higher dose omega-3 fatty acid supplementation during pregnancy and implications for the risk of prematurity: exploratory analysis of the ORIP randomised trial
Conclusions
Results in compliers were similar to those from intention-to-treat analyses, suggesting that non-compliance was not a major factor in explaining outcomes from the ORIP trial.

Role of Mediterranean diet in the development and recurrence of meningiomas: a narrative review
This study aims to provide an overview about the relationship between meningiomas and food assumption in the Mediterranean diet and whether it can be useful in meningioma prevention or it, somehow, can prevent their recurrence. The authors performed a wide literature search in PubMed and Scopus databases investigating the presence of a correlation between Mediterranean diet and meningiomas. The following MeSH and free text terms were used: “Meningiomas” AND “Diet” and “Brain tumors” AND “diet.” Databases’ search yielded a total of 749 articles. After duplicate removal, an abstract screening according to t...

Decommodifying the most important determinant of health
Among the most harrowing visuals of Britain’s ongoing ‘cost of living crisis’ are the security tags that began to appear on cheese, butter, chicken, sweets and infant formula milk in 2022. A week’s worth of formula milk—the sole or main food of the vast majority of infants for the first 6 months of life—now costs between £9.39 and £15.95.1 Low-income households are entitled to a ‘Healthy Start’ welfare payment, intended to avert malnutrition among the poorest children, but the weekly allowance is just £8.50.2 There are reports of parents watering down formul...

Polyunsaturated fatty acid status and risk of type 1 diabetes in infants and children: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: The meta-analysis suggests that n-3 PUFA might play a potential protective role in the cause of preclinical T1D, and n-3 PUFA intake may be beneficial, since the n-3 PUFA status was associated with a significant decrease in the risk of preclinical T1D in children. Nevertheless, more well-designed prospective studies are necessary to determine whether dietary or supplemental intake of specific n-3 PUFA alters the risk of preclinical T1D.PMID:37732067 | PMC:PMC10507780 | DOI:10.5114/aoms.2020.101299

Berberine induces apoptosis and arrests the cell cycle in multiple cancer cell lines
CONCLUSIONS: Berberine exhibited cytotoxic effects on multiple cancer cell lines by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. The BCL-2/BAX signaling pathway may be the common pathway underlying the anti-tumor effect of berberine. The findings support the notion that berberine is a dietary compound that can be further developed into a drug candidate for cancer treatment.PMID:37732040 | PMC:PMC10507748 | DOI:10.5114/aoms/132969

Relationships of pregnancy and postpartum diet quality with offspring birth weight and weight status through 12 months
CONCLUSIONS: Maternal diet quality during pregnancy (and during postpartum in mothers who breastfed for a longer duration) was inversely related to LGA and weight status indicators from birth through 12 months. Increasing maternal diet quality may have use for promoting healthy infant weight development.PMID:37731285 | DOI:10.1002/oby.23891

Weight-independent effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery on remission of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in mice
CONCLUSIONS: RYGB improved whole-body composition and hepatic lipid homeostasis to a greater extent than CR in mice. RYGB was associated with discrete remodeling of the hepatic transcriptome, suggesting that surgery may be mechanistically additive to CR.PMID:37731222 | DOI:10.1002/oby.23876
