Vitamin D and omega 3 fatty acid (ω-3) co-supplementation potentially improves type 1 diabetes (T1D) by attenuating autoimmunity and counteracting inflammation. This cohort study, preliminary to a randomized control trial (RCT), is aimed at evaluating, in a series of T1D children assuming Mediterranean diet and an intake of cholecalciferol of 1000U/day from T1D onset, if ω-3 co-supplementation preserves the residual endogen insulin secretion (REIS). Therefore, the cohort of 22 "new onsets" of 2017 received ω-3 (eicosapentenoic acid (EPA) plus docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), 60 mg/kg/day), and were compared retrospectively vs.

Goals: To assess the effectiveness of Bifidobacterium breve B632 and BR03 association in the reduction of infants crying over time. The second endpoint was to observe the effect of the same strains on daily evacuations and on the number of regurgitations and vomits.

Background: Infant colics represent a clinical condition in childhood, characterized by an uncontrollable crying that occurs without any apparent organic cause.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Sheila Beux"

  • * In her 2019 study, she investigated whether co-supplementation of vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids could preserve residual endogenous insulin secretion in children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes following a Mediterranean diet, suggesting a potential pathway for managing autoimmunity and inflammation in this population.
  • * Her 2017 pilot study explored the effectiveness of two strains of Bifidobacterium breve in reducing crying and improving digestive outcomes in bottle-fed infants suffering from colic, highlighting the importance of probiotic interventions in pediatric gastrointestinal health.
