Objective: This scoping review aims to describe the existing evidence of children's involvement in healthy meal preparation in terms of nutrition-related outcomes, and to highlight potential research directions.
Introduction: With the worldwide trend of unhealthy dietary habits among children, many researchers have explored the practice of healthy meal preparation as a health promotion habit. Hands-on healthy meal preparation seems to be promising among children, as it focuses on concrete experiences in creating positive attitude towards nutrition. However, a far-reaching understanding of the impact of healthy meal preparation on the wide-ranging nutrition-related outcomes among children is lacking.
Inclusion Criteria: This scoping review will consider studies worldwide that focused on hands-on healthy meal preparation among children aged 5-12 years and the associated nutrition-related outcomes: psychosocial variables, actual nutrition-related behavior, and body composition.
Methods: Experimental studies, observational studies, reviews, and text and opinion papers related to the practice of healthy meal preparation among children in English language published from 2010-2019 will be retrieved from five electronic databases. Gray literature sources will also be searched. After screening of titles and abstracts, the full text of potentially relevant articles will be retrieved. Data extracted will be presented in tables alongside the necessary information. Any discrepancies that arise during data synthesis will be discussed among the research team until consensus is reached.

: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder in women of fertile age. Some studies suggest that a ketogenic diet (KD) may have a role in treating PCOS. We aimed to demonstrate the long-term effectiveness of a KD in PCOS.

Iruplinalkib (WX-0593), a selective oral ALK/ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor, was approved in China as first-line therapy for ALK-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic ALK-positive NSCLC that has progressed following crizotinib therapy. Pharmacokinetics (PK) data of iruplinalkib have been collected in healthy subjects and patient populations in several studies. We developed a population PK (PopPK) model for describing iruplinalkib plasma concentrations and for evaluating whether dose adjustments are necessary based on demographic factors or disease characteristics.

Hydrolysed proteins are of interest owing to their potential effects on metabolic and physiological responses, low allergenicity and high digestibility. This study aimed to evaluate the use of hydrolysed poultry byproduct meal (HPM) as a replacement for conventional poultry byproduct meal (PBM) as a protein source and to study its effects on serum cytokines, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activity, serum antioxidant parameters, blood pressure, and urinary parameters in cats. The replacement of PBM with HPM was evaluated using five formulations with similar chemical compositions: control (PBM as the sole protein source) and the inclusion of 5%, 10%, 20%, and 30% HPM (on an as-fed basis).

Background: A healthy diet has been proposed to support good mental health, but the addition of either red meat or meat alternatives is nuanced.
Objectives: We aimed to determine if psychological and physiological well-being is differentially affected by consuming recommended weekly amounts of either lean red meat or plant-based meat alternatives (PBMAs) supplemented with a plant-rich diet.
Methods: The trial was a parallel 2-arm randomized intervention of 10 wk duration.

Childhood nutrition is critical for development however maternal feeding attitudes may influence feeding practices and subsequent outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate mothers' attitudes toward their children's feeding process and its relationship with characteristics and children's nutritional problems. One hundred thirty-five mother-child couples who attended the Social Pediatrics Outpatient Clinic of a hospital participated in the study.
