Clinically Relevant Topics and New Tendencies in Childhood Nutrition during the First 2 Years of Life: A Survey among Primary Care Spanish Paediatricians.

A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted among 245 experienced Spanish paediatricians, who completed an online survey based on clinically relevant topics in nutrition during the first two years of life and their recommendations to parents in daily clinical practice. Most participants advise about the choking risk associated with baby-led weaning (BLW) and more than 60% consider that infants can receive an insufficient variety and quantity of nutrients with this practice. The general opinion is that there is a lack of evidence for delaying the introduction of gluten and other allergenic foods in the complementary feeding of healthy infants.

Differences between parents' and paediatricians' perceptions of mild respiratory infections in childhood: contrast study.

Introduction: Mild respiratory infections are a common reason for consultation in paediatrics, both in the emergency department and in primary care clinics. These conditions, mostly viral and self-limiting, have a significant impact on the healthcare system, school and work absenteeism, and family routines. Despite being common and banal illnesses from a medical perspective, they involve a significant concern in families.

Late bedtime combined with more screen time before bed increases the risk of obesity and lowers diet quality in Spanish children.

This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate whether the combination of bedtime and screen time (ST) before bed were associated with obesity and diet quality in toddlers and school-aged children. Parents reported children's bedtimes and ST before bed (0 min, 1-30 min, >30 min). We then defined bed + screen time behavior using bedtime median cut-offs (early [EB] or late [LB]) and ST responses, resulting in four groups: EB-0'ST, EB ≤ 30'ST/LB-0'ST, EB > 30'ST/LB ≤ 30'ST, and LB > 30'ST.

Rolipram impacts on redox homeostasis and cellular signaling in an experimental model of abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Introduction: Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) of the PDE4 subfamily are responsible for the hydrolysis and subcellular compartmentalization of cAMP, a second messenger that modulates vascular functionality. We had shown that PDE4B is induced in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) and that PDE4 inhibition by rolipram limits experimental aneurysms. In this study we have delved into the mechanisms underlying the beneficial effect of rolipram on AAA.

[Early life nutrition and immunity].

The first 1,000 days of life, from conception to two years of age, are a critical time window for human growth and development, since the interaction of different factors can generate relevant changes in different structures and functions of the organism, both at short and long term. Most of the studies in this area have been carried out in the prenatal and neonatal period. Some of the most relevant factors that can affect immune development at this time are smoking, maternal obesity and inadequate intake of micronutrients during pregnancy.

Spanish Pediatricians' Positions Regarding Prevention, Diagnosis, Nutritional Management, and Challenges in Cow's Milk Protein Allergy.

Management of cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) can vary depending on the experience and area of expertise of the clinician responsible for the patient's follow-up, which may or may not align with the recently published literature. To analyze the perspectives of Spanish pediatricians on this topic, a survey was conducted. The survey aimed to determine the current opinions and attitudes of 222 primary care and hospital pediatricians toward CMPA prevention and nutritional management.

Post-Pandemic Feeding Patterns and Mediterranean Diet Adherence in Spanish Toddlers.

During the last decade, feeding patterns, more specifically those of children, have worsened-affecting dietary habits and Mediterranean diet adherence. Here, we examine the post-pandemic feeding habits of Spanish toddlers. A total of 2465 parents of children aged between 12 and 36 months completed an online 25-item multiple-choice survey asking about dietary habits and Mediterranean diet adherence.

Sleep dimensions are associated with obesity, poor diet quality and eating behaviors in school-aged children.

Objectives: The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the association between sleep dimensions (duration, patterns, and disturbances) with body mass index (BMI), diet quality, and eating behaviors in school-aged children. Additionally, we aimed to investigate whether obesogenic eating behaviors (higher food responsiveness, lower satiety responsiveness, and less slowness in eating) and poor diet quality could mediate the potential association between sleep and obesity in school-aged children.

Materials And Methods: For all participants ( = 588 children, age 5-12 years; 51% girls) we evaluated: sleep dimensions, BMI, diet quality, eating behaviors (food responsiveness, satiety responsiveness and slowness in eating).

Use of Dietary Supplements among Spanish Pediatricians in Daily Practice: A Cross-Sectional Survey Study.

A cross-sectional survey study was designed to gather information on the use of dietary supplements by Spanish pediatricians. The study questionnaire was completed by 433 pediatricians (62% men, mean age 52.5 years) throughout the country.

Impact of Omega-3 Fatty Acids Among Other Nonpharmacological Interventions on Behavior and Quality of Life in Children with Compromised Conduct in Spain.

The aim of this study was to assess the impact of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation among other nonpharmacological treatments on mental health and quality of life (QOL) of children with behavioral disorders. An observational multicenter study of 6- to 12-year-old children with behavior-related problems was performed in Spain with a three-month follow-up assessment. The Kidscreen-10 and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaires (SDQ) were used to assess effectiveness of each intervention.
