Summary: Vitamin D is an important nutrient and hormone that plays a critical role in modulating immune responses. Low levels of vitamin D are associated with increased susceptibility to infections and immune-related disorders, while vitamin D supplementation has immunomodulatory effects that can protect against various diseases and infections. However, there is currently limited research on the molecular insights of vitamin D supplementation, and there are gaps and shortcomings in existing data.

Summary: Currently, metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a leading cause of chronic liver disease globally and is anticipated to become a common indication for liver transplantation. MAFLD is closely associated with obesity and involves multiple mechanisms. The onset and progression of MAFLD vary among individuals due to intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Structural variants in the human genome, epigenetic phenomena, gut microbiota dysbiosis, and metabolomics/lipidomic fingerprints may contribute to differences in MAFLD outcomes through interactions with nutritional features. This knowledge enhances our understanding of the molecular and physiological processes underlying MAFLD pathogenesis and heterogeneity and aids in the identification of biomarkers for disease progression and therapeutic targets for tailored nutritional strategies.

Summary: Personalized nutrition is an approach that tailors nutrition advice based on individuals' genetic information. Despite interest among scholars, the impact of this approach on lifestyle habits and health has not been adequately explored. A systematic review of randomized trials suggests that there is limited evidence supporting the consistent benefits of personalized nutrition in improving dietary, behavioral, or health outcomes. Future trials should focus on improving methodological quality and expanding the generalizability of the results.

Summary: Increasing the efficiency and sustainability of cattle production is crucial for meeting the protein needs of a growing human population. Genetics and nutrition play key roles in selecting and improving cattle with beneficial traits. Feedomics, a combination of omic techniques, provides insights into the relationships between genes and nutrition/nutrients at different molecular levels, optimizing cattle production. This review summarizes the applications of feedomics techniques to understand the impact of genetic elements on nutrition response and how nutrients affect the functional genome of cattle, highlighting the role of rumen microbiome in the interaction between host genes and nutrition.

Summary: This study conducted a systematic review to examine existing frameworks for determining scientific validity in nutrition and genetics, with the aim of identifying the most appropriate framework for evaluating scientific validity in nutrigenetics. The analysis included 49 articles representing 41 frameworks, highlighting key factors important for evaluating nutrigenetic evidence. A single existing framework was recommended as optimal for the rigorous evaluation of scientific validity in nutritional genomics, with proposed modifications to strengthen its applicability.

Summary: Genetic scores based on SNPs related to lipid metabolism were found to be significantly associated with unfavorable outcomes in circulating lipid profile biomarkers of adolescents. Each point increase in the genetic scores was associated with changes in specific lipid profile biomarkers, suggesting potential clinical applications to target interventions for reducing cardiovascular disease risk.

Summary: This study aimed to examine the levels and socio-demographic differentials of reported COVID-like symptoms and seroprevalence data matched with COVID-like symptoms. The findings revealed that the odds of COVID-like symptoms were significantly higher for Chattogram city, non-slum areas, individuals with longer years of schooling, working class, and income-affected households, while households with higher income had lower odds. The odds of matched seroprevalence and COVID-like symptoms were higher for non-slum areas, individuals with longer years of schooling, and the working class. Conclusion: Collecting community-based seroprevalence data is important for assessing exposure levels and initiating mitigation and awareness programs to reduce the burden of COVID-19.
