Impulsivity is an important determinant of human behaviour, affecting self-control, reasonable thinking and food choices. Recent evidence suggests a role for gut microbiota in human behaviour, but the relationship between gut microbiota and impulsive behaviours remains largely unexplored. To address this knowledge gap, the present study aims to explore the associations between faecal microbiota composition with trait and behavioural impulsivity, in a subcohort of the PREDIMED-Plus trial, including older adults presenting overweight/obesity.

Methods: Cross-sectional study conducted in 6821 men and women between 55 and 75 years of age. Forty-two food groups were analyzed from dietary information collected with food frequency questionnaires, using principal component analysis and cluster analysis and then information from both statistical methods was compared.
Article Synopsis
- Infancy is a crucial growth period where lack of essential nutrients and exposure to harmful elements can lead to long-term health problems; this study focuses on measuring urine concentrations of these elements during the weaning period (3 to 18 months).
- Data from the Nutrition in Early Life and Asthma (NELA) cohort included sociodemographic and dietary information, revealing that breastfed infants had lower concentrations of certain harmful elements compared to formula-fed infants.
- Results showed significant increases in the urine concentrations of some non-essential elements (like arsenic and lead) as infants transitioned to solid foods, highlighting the impact of diet on exposure levels during this developmental stage.

The aim of our cross-sectional and longitudinal study is to assess the relationship between daytime and night-time sleep duration and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in adults with metabolic syndrome after a 1-year healthy lifestyle intervention. Analysis of the data from 2119 Spanish adults aged 55-75 years from the PREDIMED-Plus study was performed. Sleep duration was assessed using a wrist-worn accelerometer.

This study therefore aimed to investigate the association between the use of aspirin and statins and GC.
Methods: A pooled analysis of seven case-control studies within the Stomach Cancer Pooling Project, including 3220 cases and 9752 controls, was conducted.
