Objective: To examine both unique and interactive effects of parent restrictive feeding and child disinhibited eating behavior on child body mass index (BMI) in low-income Latino and African American preschoolers.
Methods: The sample included 229 parent-child pairs, the majority of whom were low-income and Latino (57%) or African American (25%). Parents completed self-report measures, and researchers collected anthropometric data.
Results: Multiple regression analysis indicated a restriction-disinhibition interaction; high restriction/high disinhibition predicted higher BMI, and high restriction/low disinhibition predicted lower BMI.
Conclusions And Implications: Although limited by the observational, cross-sectional design, results indicate that parent and child behaviors interact to produce maladaptive weight outcomes, and practitioners should consider both when counseling families.

Human activities have far-reaching impact on natural ecosystems, causing increasing disturbances and disruptions to the delicate balance of the environment. Poor land use planning, urbanization, infrastructure development, and unplanned tourism exacerbate contamination and degradation in tourist destinations, yet the pollution of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in these environments remains inadequately explored. To address this issue, we investigated the concentrations of acid-digested PTEs in road dust in Abbottabad city (Pakistan) with heavy traffic.

Objective: To analyze the impact of the association between the consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF), excess weight, and dyslipidemia in schoolchildren.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional study in which 420 schoolchildren aged 6 to 10 years from public schools in the municipality of Rio das Ostras, Brazil, were evaluated. Food consumption was assessed using the Previous Day Food Questionnaire (PDFQ-3), and physical activity (PA) was assessed using the Previous Day Physical Activity and Food Questionnaire (PDPAFQ).
