Toxic compounds in fried food products attract increasing attention, but studies regarding the levels of common toxins, such as malondialdehyde (MDA), 4-hydroxy-2-hexenal (4-HHE), and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE), in fried starch-based food (FSBF) are scarce. Herein, we investigated the formation and distributions of these aldehydes in FSBF, and the frying oil and FSBF retained higher levels of low-molecular-weight aldehydes. The highest aldehyde concentrations were observed in French fries.

As the global population continues to grow and the pressure on livestock and poultry supply increases, the oceans have become an increasingly important source of quality food for future generations. However, nutrient-rich aquatic product is susceptible to lipid oxidation during storage and transport, reducing its nutritional value and increasing safety risks. Therefore, identifying the specific effects of lipid oxidation on aquatic products has become particularly critical.

Objective: To identify risk factors for clinically-important drowning-associated lung injury (ciDALI) in children.

Study Design: This was a cross-sectional study of children (0 through 18 years) who presented to 32 pediatric emergency departments (EDs) from 2010 through 2017. We reviewed demographics, comorbidities, prehospital data, chest radiographs reports, and ED course from emergency medical services, medical, and fatality records.
