One of the aims of this work was to evaluate the impact of introducing products that are in agreement with the Choices criteria in the usual diet of the Brazilian population. However, due to the insufficient information on key compounds related to non-transmissible chronic diseases (NTCD) in the national food composition database, the nutritional information of food labels was collected. A food composition database of industrialized products was created (1720 products) and their data were evaluated according to the Choices criteria. The replacement of typical products by products that are in accordance to the Choices criteria may cause a decrease in the intake of saturated (52%) and trans fatty acids (92%), energy (14%) and sodium (47%), as well as an increase in the intake of DF (87%); improving the diet nutritional profile. This procedure can be used as important part in a strategy for decreasing the risk for NTCD.

Department of Radiology, Montpellier Research Center Institute, PINKCC Laboratory, Montpellier, France.
Objective: To provide up-to-date European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) guidelines for staging and follow-up of patients with ovarian cancer (OC).
Methods: Twenty-one experts, members of the female pelvis imaging ESUR subcommittee from 19 institutions, replied to 2 rounds of questionnaires regarding imaging techniques and structured reporting used for pre-treatment evaluation of OC patients. The results of the survey were presented to the other authors during the group's annual meeting.

Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a severe condition that may lead to permanent vision loss if untreated. Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) has become a preferred surgical intervention, particularly in complex cases. Objective: Retinal displacement (RD) following PPV for RRD can lead to visual distortions and can negatively impact patient quality of life.

Article Synopsis
- The implementation of bone substitute materials has led to advancements in bone regeneration strategies, with a focus on histomorphometry for assessing bone structure.
- A systematic review analyzed 118 studies from the past decade, revealing that rats are the most commonly used animal model for research, with toluidine blue being the preferred staining method.
- Key histomorphometric parameters evaluated included new bone formation and mineral apposition rate, with calcein green favored for dynamic histomorphometry, while the review also highlighted weaknesses in current research protocols.
Comparison of diagnostic performance for pulmonary nodule detection between free-breathing spiral ultrashort echo time and free-breathing radial volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination.

School of Medical Technology, Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine, Xian Yang, 712046, China.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of two free-breathing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences-spiral ultrashort echo time (spiral UTE) and radial volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (radial VIBE).
Methods: Patients were prospectively enrolled between February 2021 and September 2022. All participants underwent both 3T MRI scanning, utilizing the radial VIBE sequence and spiral UTE sequence, as well as standard chest CT imaging.
