Background: The promotion of healthy dietary behaviors in adolescence is critical, which have long-term implications for lifelong health. Integration is an important method for improving limited theories of dietary behavior change. The present study proposes an integrated model aimed at identifying the diverse determinants of healthy dietary behaviors in adolescents and assesses its stage-specific nature as the potential for effective interventions.

Background: Disrupted balance between amyloidogenic and non-amyloidogenic pathways leads to cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Evidence suggests vitamin A (VA) supplementation favors the non-amyloidogenic pathway through upregulation of α-secretase. Originally used to map embryonic retinoic acid (RA) signaling, RARE-LacZ mice possess multiple LacZ genes controlled by retinoic acid response elements (RAREs).

Introduction: Previous randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have indicated a protective role of pregnancy supplementation with fish oil and high-dose vitamin D, respectively, on offspring asthma, infections and several other disorders in early childhood. However, current evidence is not considered sufficient for recommending these supplements in pregnancy. In two RCTs, we aim to investigate whether these protective effects can be confirmed in larger trials with the goal of changing clinical practice and improving child health.
