Timing and types of complementary feeding in infancy affect nutritional status health later life. The present study aimed to investigate the factors associated with early introduction (i.e., before age 4 months), infants consumption non-recommended foods, including sweet beverages snack foods.This used cross-sectional data from BeeBOFT (n = 2157). Data on practices potential determinants were obtained by questionnaire at infant's 6 months. Logistic regression models infants' foods.21.4% had...

Data have demonstrated adverse health effects of sleep deprivation. We postulate that oxidative stress and systemic inflammation biomarkers will be elevated in relation to short-term long-term duration reduction. analyzed data from the baseline examination a randomized controlled trial involving participants with moderate severe obstructive apnea (OSA). Baseline polysomnography provided total time (PSG-TST, primary predictor); self-reported habitual (SR-HSD) was collected. Morning measures...
Accumulating epidemiological evidence supports that chronic exposure to ambient fine particular matters of <2.5 m (PM2.5) predisposes both children and adults Alzheimer's disease (AD) age-related brain damage leading dementia. There is also experimental show PM2.5 results in early onset AD-related pathologies transgenic AD mice development healthy rodents. Studies have documented causes AD-linked molecular cellular alterations, such as mitochondrial dysfunction, synaptic deficits, impaired...
