Article Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of energy intake on activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with acute stroke, with a focus on the differences between obese and non-obese patients.
Methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted in a neurological hospital and included patients hospitalized for acute stroke. During the acute phase (1 week after admission), energy intake was assessed, and the main outcome was defined as the Functional Independence Measure in the motor domain (FIM-M) at discharge. All subjects were divided into two groups based on their body mass index (BMI) at admission, with BMI ≥ 25 defining the obese stroke group and BMI < 25 defining the non-obese stroke group. Linear regression analysis was performed to examine the relationship between energy intake and FIM-M in each group.
Results: A total of 307 patients with acute stroke (median age: 72 years) were included in this study, with 118 patients (39%) in the obese stroke group. In the non-obese stroke group, a significant and independent relationship was observed between FIM-M and energy intake (β = 0.103, = 0.031, adjusted R2 = 0.687). However, in the obese stroke group, no significant relationship was found between FIM-M and energy intake (β = 0.076, = 0.302).
Conclusion: In patients with acute stroke, energy intake positively affects functional outcomes in non-obese patients but not in obese patients. This study highlights the importance of considering obesity as a potential factor in determining energy intake in patients with acute stroke.

Background: More research is needed to clarify the health effects of dietary carotenoid intakes, and this requires the use of high-quality assessments of habitual dietary intake. Cohort studies from the Tohoku Medical Megabank Organization included a self-administered food frequency questionnaire (TMM-FFQ) for community-dwelling adults. This study evaluated the validity of carotenoid intakes derived from the TMM-FFQ using serum carotenoid concentrations as the gold standard.

Circulating levels of 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropionic acid (CMPF), a metabolite derived from dietary furan fatty acids primarily found in marine food sources, have long been recognized as biomarkers for fish intake. However, elevated CMPF levels are also observed in patients with type 2 diabetes or chronic kidney disease and in healthy people associated with a reduced infection risk, suggesting potential bioactive roles in metabolism and immune function. Yet, the possible causal mechanisms behind these associations are unknown.

Background: The prevalence of obesity and associated diseases, including several cancers, continues to rise.
Objective: Given the growing evidence that the degree of food processing impacts health, we investigated the relationship between the degree of food processing and the risk of obesity-related cancers (ORC).
Methods: We analyzed data from 17,756 participants in the "Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra" (SUN) project, a prospective cohort of Spanish graduates.

This study investigated the association between energy and macronutrient intake and bone health in 63 adolescents of both sexes who participated in volleyball, track and field, or swimming. Bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD) of the total body less head (TBLH), lumbar spine (L1-L4), and femoral neck were assessed using DXA. Bone geometry parameters, including cross-sectional area (CSA), cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), and section modulus, were estimated.
