Background: Intravenous lipid emulsions are a key component of parenteral nutrition, and their fatty acid compositions may influence immune responses and clinical outcomes.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study conducted from January 2020 to December 2022 compared clinical outcomes of hospitalized non-critical care patients receiving parenteral nutrition with either mixed oil or soybean oil lipid emulsions for at least 48 h. The primary outcome was a composite of the presence of pneumonia, urinary tract infection, or an intra-abdominal collection diagnosed within 14 days of initiating parenteral nutrition.

Background: Disentangling preschool wheezing heterogeneity in terms of clinical traits, temporal patterns, and collective healthcare burden is critical for precise and effective interventions.
Objective: We aimed to collectively define contributions and distinct characteristics of respiratory phenotypes based on longitudinal wheeze and atopic sensitization patterns in the first 5 years of life.
Methods: Group-based trajectory analysis was performed in the CHILD Cohort study to identify distinct wheeze and allergic sensitization trajectories.
Background: At least 30% of individuals with major depressive disorder do not respond to conventional treatments (i.e., they meet the criteria for treatment-resistant depression [TRD]).

Many individuals adopt restrictive diets such as caloric or nutrient restriction or medically prescribed patterns (eg, diabetic diets) to improve health, yet their impact on depressive symptoms remains understudied. This study aims to evaluate the association between restrictive dietary patterns and depressive symptoms stratified by sex and body mass index (BMI).

Depression affects a significant proportion of adults in the United States. Studies exploring the association between depression and bone mineral density (BMD) have shown mixed results. Moreover, the relationship between BMD and physical activity (PA) in individuals with depressive symptoms is unknown.

This study aims to evaluate the association of depressive symptoms and their severity with overall disability and disability domains, and to assess temporal changes in these associations. Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2013-2018 were analyzed. A total of 15,565 participants were included, with 1383 (8.

Methods: In the prospective, population-based Canadian pregnancy cohort, the CHILD Cohort Study (N = 2219), dietary intake was assessed at age 3 years using a previously developed 112-item food frequency questionnaire. At age 5 years, we measured height, weight, and waist circumference and calculated BMI and waist circumference z scores.
Human airways contain specialized rare epithelial cells including CFTR-rich ionocytes that regulate airway surface physiology and chemosensory tuft cells that produce asthma-associated inflammatory mediators. Here, using a lung cell atlas of 311,748 single cell RNA-Seq profiles, we identify 687 ionocytes (0.45%).

Understanding how different mental health service types and sociodemographic factors correlate with depressive symptoms is critical for informing equitable mental health policies and resource allocation. This study investigates the associations between type of mental health service used and depressive symptoms.

Biosimilars play a crucial role in increasing the accessibility and affordability of biological therapies; thus, precise and reliable assessment methods are essential for their regulatory approval and clinical adoption. Currently, the 2-sequence 2-period crossover design is recommended for two-treatment biosimilar studies. However, such designs may be inadequate for the practical assessment when multiple test or reference products are involved, particularly in scenarios such as: (1) bridging biosimilar results across regulatory regions (e.

Method: This cross-sectional study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2005-2018).
ObjectivesDelayed sleep-wake phase disorder (DSWPD) most commonly affects young individuals (adolescents and young adults), but it is often undetected in clinical practice. Despite several reports suggesting a link between DSWPD and depression, no systematic review has investigated this association. The aim of this systematic review was to determine whether DSWPD is associated with depression among young individuals.

Emotional stress, including depression, may contribute to increased gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms. In this paper, we aim to evaluate the associations between depressive symptoms, depressive symptom severity, and symptom clusters with acid reflux medication use, considering the potential interaction effect of sex. Data from the 2007-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a condition that includes a cluster of risk factors for cardiovascular disease. In this paper, we aimed to evaluate the association between depressive symptoms, antidepressant use, duration of antidepressant use, antidepressant type and MetS. Data from the 2005-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys were used in this study.

Introduction: Schools are an important setting for supporting children's development of food literacy, but minimal research has assessed which strategies are most suitable for school nutrition education. The Foodbot Factory intervention, consisting of serious game (ie, a digital game designed for education) and curriculum-based lesson plans, was developed to support teachers and children ages 8-12 with nutrition education. Pilot data have demonstrated that Foodbot Factory can significantly improve children's nutrition knowledge, but it has not yet been evaluated in classrooms.

While massed cognitive processing therapy (CPT) has demonstrated efficacy in treating chronic PTSD, a substantial proportion of patients still continue to meet PTSD criteria after treatment, highlighting the need for novel therapeutic approaches.

However, few studies focus on interactions between early-life co-exposures to shed light on how co-exposures modify their individual effects. Therefore, our study aims to assess whether early-life exposure to pets and related biological agents, namely pet allergens and endotoxin, modifies the association between di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and asthma and wheeze in preschoolers to gain insight into interactions.

Introduction: Elevated plasma homocysteine (Hcy) is associated with an increased risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases; however, its relationship with the apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele has not been well characterized.
Methods: Participants clinically diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or mild cognitive impairment (AD/MCI), frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, or cerebrovascular disease were stratified by the presence of the APOE ε4 allele. Volumetric magnetic resonance imaging, plasma amyloid/tau/neurodegeneration biomarkers, and cognitive performance were quantified.
Background: Despite the frequent co-occurrence of depression and diabetes, gender differences in their relationship remain unclear.
Aims: This exploratory study examined if gender modifies the association between depressive symptoms, prediabetes and diabetes with cognitive-affective and somatic depressive symptom clusters.
Method: Cross-sectional analyses were conducted on 29 619 participants from the 2007-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
