Summary: The study showed that mindful eating was lower in women with overweight and obesity compared to women with normal weight. Additionally, participants with obesity had lower scores in eating control, eating discipline, and interference compared to participants with normal weight. There was a significant correlation between the awareness subdimension of the scale and the ages, BMIs, waist circumferences, and body fat rates of the participants.

Summary: Studies have found that young adults have less structured eating patterns compared to older individuals, which can affect dietary assessment methods that rely on memory and structured meal patterns. This study aimed to describe the intra-individual variation of eating times in young adults aged 18-30 years. The results showed that there was a high level of variability in the timing of eating occasions and the length of the eating window among the participants.

Summary: Obesity and abdominal obesity are associated with an increased risk of developing CKD in young adults, especially those under 30 years old. Surprisingly, young adults with diabetes who are obese or have abdominal obesity show a lower risk of CKD compared to those without obesity or abdominal obesity.

Summary: The study found that eating speed is associated with BMI and waist circumference, and slowing down eating speed may be an effective strategy for weight management and reducing obesity risk. It is suggested that assessment of eating speed can be included in nutrition surveys to analyze obesity risk, and further research is needed to explore the links between eating speed, obesity, ethnicity, sex, food culture, and chronic diseases.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between dietary intake and social jet lag and temporal sleep variability. The results showed limited associations between nutritional composition and social jet lag, but consumption of polyunsaturated fats, sodium, chloride, and total energy intake were related to levels of temporal sleep variability. These findings suggest the need for further research on specific nutrients to tailor interventions for managing diet and temporal variabilities in sleep patterns.

Summary: This cross-sectional study examined intuitive eating behavior among young Malay adults in Malaysia. The findings showed a high intuitive eating score among the respondents, with some differences based on gender and living area. The study also found a relationship between intuitive eating and weight-control behaviors and binge eating.

Summary: This study found a significant association between weight in grade 3 and dietary restraint in grade 4 among children. However, dietary restraint in grade 3 was not associated with weight in grade 4. Child sex and race/ethnicity were not associated with BMIz or dietary restraint at any time point.

Summary: This study aimed to identify different classes of individuals with similar BMI trajectories and study their associations with cardiometabolic health. Results showed that individuals with high and stable BMI across childhood may have lower cardiometabolic disease risk than individuals who become overweight or obese later in adolescence.

Summary: This study found that meal timing was not associated with body composition and cardiometabolic risk factors in young adults. However, in young men, a longer daily eating window and a shorter time from midsleep point to first food intake were associated with better cardiometabolic health.

Summary: The study found that the main reasons for healthy eating among young Poles were to follow doctor's recommendations, lose weight, and lead a healthy lifestyle. However, the biggest barriers they faced included lack of time to prepare healthy meals, financial constraints, inability to cook, and limited knowledge about healthy eating.

Summary: After the COVID-19 lockdown, the establishment of a 'new normal' had a positive impact on daily sleep and eating routines. The 'new normal' was associated with greater regularity in sleep and eating routines, longer sleep duration on weekdays, and lower sleep debt. BMI and other health-related variables were similar between the 'new normal' and pre-pandemic groups.

Summary: This cross-sectional study found an association between sleep quality and BMI in young adults, with diet quality and eating behaviors mediating this association. Emotional eating and cognitive restraint were found to have a significant mediating effect on the association between sleep quality and BMI. Diet quality was also found to be related to eating behaviors. These results emphasize the importance of considering sleep quality and eating behaviors when designing obesity prevention strategies.

Summary: Smoking intensity in women is associated with increased infertility odds, while later smoking initiation and smoking cessation are linked to decreased infertility in women. However, the association between greater smoking intensity in men and infertility is not robust.

Summary: This study found that adherence to healthy lifestyle habits is a significant determinant of weight loss effectiveness among patients undergoing endoscopic bariatric therapies (EBTs). Eating four to five meals a day and engaging in muscle-strengthening activities more than twice a week were the most significant lifestyle habits that determined weight loss response. Emotional eating had a significant impact on weight loss at 3 and 6 months after the intervention, while anxiety and depression did not have a significant effect. These findings highlight the importance of implementing a proper nutritional intervention program for obese patients undergoing EBTs.

Summary: This study found that seasonal light variability has a significant impact on symptoms and activity patterns of individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In particular, ADHD-I patients experienced milder symptoms of inattention during summer compared to winter, and had lower intradaily variability during summer.

Summary: Rats housed in a 22-hour light-dark cycle exhibit two distinct circadian locomotor activity bouts, which are associated with clock gene oscillations in different regions of the brain. Upon release into free-running conditions, these activity rhythms quickly resynchronize and have a longer period than rats housed in a typical 24-hour cycle. Both in vivo and ex vivo experiments support the presence of a dual oscillator system.

Summary: This study explored the association between autonomic dysfunction, circadian rhythms, and endothelial dysfunction in myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) patients. The results showed that ME/CFS patients had higher blood pressure and heart rate values, as well as a larger amplitude of the activity rhythm. Circulating levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) were also significantly higher in ME/CFS patients. These findings suggest that dysautonomia and vascular tone abnormalities may play a role in ME/CFS.

Summary: Image-based dietary records have been validated as tools to evaluate dietary intake, but previous studies have mainly relied on unvalidated smartphone applications for determining meal timing. This study aimed to assess the relative validity and reliability of the Remind app as an image-based method for assessing dietary intake and meal timing.
