A rapid scoping review on operationalizing cognitive and social activities in research on dementia risk reduction.

Objectives: Engagement in cognitive and social activities may protect against dementia. However, insight into how to adequately measure activity engagement is a necessary precursor of science. This study explores (a) how cognitive and social activities are measured in research investigating protective activities against dementia, and (b) the extent to which preventive interventions promote activities that are operationalized in measurements.

The impact of heat-set milk protein gel textures modified by pH on circulating amino acid appearance and gastric function in healthy female adults: a randomised controlled trial.

Modification of dairy proteins during processing impacts structural assemblies, influencing textural and nutritional properties of dairy products, and release and availability of amino acids during digestion. By modifying only pH, acid heat-set bovine dairy gels with divergent textural properties were developed to alter protein digestion. assay confirmed faster digestion of protein from a firm gel (pH 5.
