The Diet Quality of Athletes as Measured by Diet Quality Indices: A Scoping Review.

Background/objectives: The goals of sports nutrition are to support athletic performance. However, the diet quality of athletes remains poorly understood. This scoping review aims to synthesise the existing body of literature, evaluating the diet quality of adult athletes.

Engraft: A Collaborative Learning Health Network for Enhanced Transplant and Cellular Therapy Outcomes.

The Engraft Learning Health Network (LHN) aims to improve outcomes for patients undergoing transplant and cellular therapy (TCT) through a collaborative, data-driven approach. Engraft brings together diverse stakeholders, including clinicians, patients, caregivers, and institutions, to standardize best practices and accelerate the dissemination of innovations in TCT care. By establishing a multicenter, real-world clinical registry focused on rapid-cycle quality improvement (QI) and implementation research, Engraft seeks to reduce variability in clinical practice to improve TCT outcomes across centers.

Drivers of consumption of plant-based meat alternatives and their nutritional contributions: A mixed methods approach.

Background: Plant-based meat alternatives (PBMA) are considered an alternative to animal products. We aimed to understand the patterns and drivers of consumption of PBMA and their nutritional contributions using dietary modelling, whilst also considering the relevance of processing.

Methods: This study used a mixed methods exploratory sequential approach.

How do plant-based milks compare to cow's milk nutritionally? An audit of the plant-based milk products available in Australia.

Aim: This cross-sectional study aims to explore the nutritional composition, cost, country of origin and fortification status of plant-based milk products available for purchase in Illawarra supermarkets and make various comparisons between types of plant-based milks and cow's milk.

Methods: Plant-based milk information was collected from nutrition information panels on packaging and manufacturer websites. Product ingredient lists, including fortifiers, were analysed to estimate the nutrient composition of the identified plant-based milks, including nutrients beyond those listed by manufacturers.

Control of phosphodiesterase activity in the regulator of biofilm dispersal RbdA from .

The switch between planktonic and biofilm lifestyle correlates with intracellular concentration of the second messenger bis-(3'-5')-cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP). While bacteria possess cyclase and phosphodiesterase enzymes to catalyse formation or hydrolysis of c-di-GMP, both enzymatic domains often occur in a single protein. It is tacitly assumed that one of the two enzymatic activities is dominant, and that additional domains and protein interactions enable responses to environmental conditions and control activity.
