Summary: This paper discusses the relationship between dental caries and daily diet and nutritional intake. Dairy products, rich in nutrients, have a low caries effect. Through functional and active components, especially dairy products containing probiotics, dental caries can be managed. This research provides theoretical reference for the prevention and treatment of dental caries through scientific milk consumption in the future.

Summary: Recent studies have shown that regular consumption of milk fat globule membranes (MFGMs) has positive effects on neural and cognitive development, as well as immune and gastrointestinal health in infants and elders. Dairy by-products generated from the butter and butter oil manufacturing process are valuable sources of MFGM. Therefore, it is important to conduct research on the utilization of these by-products to obtain MFGM-enriched ingredients for the production of biologically active products.

Summary: This study conducted a systematic review of published studies to evaluate the levels of heavy metals in milk and dairy products in China, as well as the associated health risks. Most studies detected toxic heavy metals, but overall health risks were found to be negligible. The polluted environment surrounding farms, feed, and packaging materials were identified as likely sources of heavy metals in milk and dairy products. More research is needed to evaluate the contribution of each environmental source.

Summary: Food fraud, including adulteration, counterfeiting, substitution, and inaccurate labeling, is a significant concern due to economic interests and consumers' health protection. Animal origin food products, such as milk, dairy products, meat and meat products, eggs, and fishery products, are commonly adulterated. Detecting adulteration is vital to prevent unfair competition and protect consumers' rights. Accurate and automated analytical techniques, combined with chemometric tools, provide reliable information on adulteration and fraud. This review presents recent advances in analytical techniques and chemometric approaches for addressing authenticity issues in animal origin food products.

Summary: Studies have shown that using cyclodextrins as a tool to remove cholesterol from dairy products can effectively achieve cholesterol removal up to 98%, without significantly affecting the nutritional, textural, and flavor characteristics of the products. The application is easy, cost-effective, and can be realized on current technological production lines.

Summary: This study examined the association between dietary exposures and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk using data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) and the Netherlands Cohort Study (NLCS). The results showed a positive association between the intake of alcohol, liquor/spirits, soft drinks, and pork and CRC risk, while the intake of milk, cheese, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, riboflavin, vitamin B6, beta carotene, fruit, fiber, nonwhite bread, banana, and total protein were inversely associated with CRC risk.

Summary: This study investigated the association between energy balance-related factors and Warburg subtypes in colorectal cancer. The results indicate that BMI, clothing size, and physical activity are associated with different risks of colon cancer subtypes. The Warburg effect may play a role in the relationship between adiposity and colon cancer risk, with potential additional mechanisms in women.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of seven frequently mutated genes on cancer-specific survival in clear cell renal cell cancer. Mutations in VHL and PBRM1 were associated with better survival, but the results were not statistically significant after multiple testing correction. No association was observed for the other five genes, possibly due to limited power.

Summary: This study investigated the prognostic value of mutational subgroups based on somatic mutations in RAS, BRAF, PIK3CA, MET, and mismatch repair (MMR) status in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. The results showed that mutational subgroups were associated with survival differences in CRC patients, while Warburg-subtypes did not provide additional prognostic information within these mutational subgroups.

Summary: The autopsy rate is declining while major discrepancies exist between autopsies and clinical diagnoses. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the cause of death, a history of cancer, and the autopsy rate. The findings of this study are important in understanding the impact of cancer on autopsies and can help counteract the decline in the medical autopsy.

Summary: The aim of this study was to re-evaluate renal cell carcinoma cases from a large population-based cohort in the Netherlands, using new classifications, in order to identify newly recognized subtypes. The cases were initially evaluated using previous classifications and data on clinicopathological characteristics were obtained. Two urogenital pathologists reviewed digital slides according to new grading and classification systems. No new RCC subtypes were identified in the cases. Restaging and regrading showed the possibility of reporting newer features in an old sample collection.
