Summary: Omitting breakfast can impair evening exercise performance, but this is more related to meal timing rather than the amount of carbohydrates consumed during lunch. Providing a high-carbohydrate breakfast in the morning may be beneficial for optimizing evening exercise performance.

This study found that students in schools with WITS programming consumed more fruits and vegetables, but consumed less main entrees and milk compared to students in Control schools. Future research is needed to confirm these findings and improve the effectiveness of the program on other components of school lunches.

Summary: Adolescents with lifetime depression showed higher R1 values in the uncinate fasciculus and corpus callosum genu compared to healthy controls, with sex significantly moderating this association. Female adolescents with depression had significantly higher R1 values in these tracts compared to healthy females, while there was no significant difference in R1 values between depressed and non-depressed male adolescents. Our results suggest that R1 may be more sensitive to sex-specific effects of depression in adolescents, particularly in females.

Summary: This study examines the prevalence of postpartum depression (PPD) screening participation among immigrant women in Denmark and reveals that immigrant women are less likely to receive screening compared to Danish-born women. The study also suggests that acculturation factors, such as length of residence and age at migration, affect the screening participation rate, with women who have lower acculturation being more likely to lack screening.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the association between recurrent pain among adolescents and exposure to bullying and low socioeconomic status (SES), as well as the potential modifying effect of SES on the association between bullying and recurrent pain. The findings showed that adolescents who experienced bullying and had low SES were more likely to have recurrent headaches, stomachaches, and back pain. Furthermore, the risk of recurrent pain increased significantly when adolescents were exposed to both bullying and low SES, and SES did not modify the association between bullying and recurrent pain.

The prevalence of underweight remained stable from 1998 to 2018, with a higher prevalence among girls compared to boys. There was no significant association between socioeconomic status and the prevalence of underweight.
