The aim of this study was to identify, through a systematic review, how perceptions of genital and body self-image can influence the sexual function of young adult women. A systematic review was performed in which 704 studies were selected. After analyzing the articles, only 10 articles were included, from which the data for this research were extracted.

Here we use lipidomics data from a randomized controlled dietary intervention trial to construct a multilipid score (MLS), summarizing the effects of replacing saturated fat with unsaturated fat on 45 lipid metabolite concentrations. In the EPIC-Potsdam cohort, a difference in the MLS, reflecting better dietary fat quality, was associated with a significant reduction in the incidence of cardiovascular disease (-32%; 95% confidence interval (95% CI): -21% to -42%) and type 2 diabetes (-26%; 95% CI: -15% to -35%).

We developed and validated a large-scale database of kitchen and food sounds (180 stimuli) capturing different stages of preparing, cooking, serving, and/or consuming foods and beverages and sounds of packaging, kitchen utensils, and appliances. Each sound was evaluated across nine subjective evaluative dimensions (random order), including stimuli-related properties (e.

- - The study investigates the relationship between specific lipid metabolites and colorectal cancer risk using data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC), comparing 1,591 colorectal cancer cases with matched controls.
- - Out of 97 lipid metabolites analyzed, 24 showed an inverse association with colon cancer risk, notably hydroxysphingomyelin (SM (OH)) C22:2 and acylakyl-phosphatidylcholine (PC ae) C34:3, which remained significant even after adjustments.
- - The findings suggest that higher pre-diagnostic levels of certain lipids may be linked to a lower risk of developing colorectal cancer, warranting further research to confirm these associations.
Objective: The availability in the literature of data related to perinatal variables in the Spanish population is very scarce. The aim of this study was to know the evolution of perinatal health indicators according to the risk groups of prematurity and birth weight, the proportion of multiple births, caesarean section and stillbirths.
Methods: We conducted a population-based cross-sectional study of births in eleven hospitals in Castilla y León (January 2015 to June 2020).
