Summary: This study aims to compare the effect of mother's own milk (OMM) and pasteurized donor human milk (DHM) on % weight gain/month in preterm and term infants. It also evaluates the impact of diet, lifestyle habits, psychological stress, and pasteurization on milk composition and their influence on infant growth, health, and development. Biological samples and various characteristics are collected at different time points for analysis. The study also involves the use of sensor prototypes, measurement of maternal psychosocial status, examination of postpartum bonding and parental stress, and application of neurodevelopment scales.

Summary: Protein is vital for infant growth and development. Maternal protein levels are affected by various factors, including environmental factors and maternal characteristics. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between maternal blood lead levels (BLLs), maternal diet, and total milk protein. The results showed that BLLs had a negative correlation with total milk protein, while maternal protein intake and BMI had a positive correlation. High BLLs significantly reduced total milk protein, but increasing protein intake maintained levels in mothers with lower BLLs. It is important to measure BLLs in lactating mothers exposed to lead and promote higher protein intake to maintain total milk protein levels.

Summary: This study found that there is a positive correlation between BMI and dyslipidemia risk in lactating women. A higher BMI is associated with an increased risk of dyslipidemia. It is recommended that lactating women maintain a BMI below 24.85 kg/m(2) to prevent the occurrence of dyslipidemia.

Summary: AA metabolites were found in urine samples of lactating mothers in Spain, likely originating from coffee, bread, and precooked food products; Estimated daily intake of AA based on urinary metabolites ranged from 1.2 to 1.9 μg/kg bw/day in the target population; Risk assessment indicated that AA exposure should be considered a medium priority for follow-up in the Spanish population.

Summary: This study shows that breastfeeding-related infant adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are more common than reported. The nonspecific nature of these reactions and a lack of awareness and difficulty in identification of ADRs by mothers and clinicians may result in these ADRs being underreported.

Summary: This study evaluated the urinary levels of Glyphosate and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid in Spanish breastfeeding mothers, with a significant relationship found between intake of eggs and fruits and Glyphosate levels in urine. The calculated estimated daily intakes and hazard quotients showed low health risk expected for the population under study.

Summary: Recent research challenges the assumption that appetite functions to maintain stable body mass and fat mass, suggesting instead that appetite matches food intake to energy expenditure and its correlates. The study found that milk intake and energy intake in infants are strongly associated with fat-free mass and energy expenditure components, with parental height correlating with weight gain, milk intake, and energy intake.

Summary: Adding synbiotics to formula milk can prevent infections in infants. This study found that synbiotic feeding led to the development of a healthier gut microbiota, with lower levels of Klebsiella and higher levels of Bifidobacterium. It also increased the production of metabolites associated with immune signaling.

Summary: The study introduces an application (CIMI-Ethiopia) for assessing nutrient intake from diet, specifically the potential inadequacy in children and lactating mothers. The results show that CIMI-Ethiopia can accurately estimate the intake of energy and most nutrients, with some variation in vitamin A.

Summary: Pasta, despite being a refined carbohydrate, may not contribute to overweight or obesity due to its unique structure and low glycemic response. Observational and limited clinical data suggest that pasta is either inversely or not associated with overweight or obesity in healthy individuals. However, the evidence regarding its effects on appetite and gastric emptying is inconclusive.

Summary: In this study, the urinary metabolomic profile of newborns of diabetic mothers was analyzed using NMR spectroscopy and GS-MS. Differences in metabolite levels were observed at birth, but not in subsequent sampling times. Early nutrition was considered as a potential contributing factor to these metabolic changes.

Summary: This study aimed to identify barriers to American Heart Association dietary recommendations in hypercholesterolemic patients, and found that factors such as psychological factors, false beliefs and food habits affect dietary adherence. Considering these barriers, incorporating patient's culture, traditions, and dietary preferences can be beneficial in improving dietary adherence among hypercholesterolemic patients.

Summary: Sourdoughs fermented by lactobacilli have the potential to produce gluten-free maize bread with acceptable technological properties, nutritional quality, and longer shelf life. The quality of sourdough maize bread can be controlled by adding different lactobacilli species to the formulation, with L. brevis being a key factor in determining the quality.

Summary: This article discusses the association between the development of celiac disease and gut microbiota, the effects of infectious agents, especially the recent Covid-19 infection in celiac disease patients, and the efficacy of potential therapeutic approaches. Scientific literature suggests that microbiome-based therapy can improve the symptoms and quality of life of celiac disease patients, but the full potential of microbiota-based techniques requires further research.
