Calorie (energy) labelling for changing selection and consumption of food or alcohol.
Cochrane Database Syst Rev
January 2025
Behaviour and Health Research Unit, Department of Public Health and Primary Care, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK.
Background: Overconsumption of food and consumption of any amount of alcohol increases the risk of non-communicable diseases. Calorie (energy) labelling is advocated as a means to reduce energy intake from food and alcoholic drinks. However, there is continued uncertainty about these potential impacts, with a 2018 Cochrane review identifying only a small body of low-certainty evidence.

Previous evidence showed that adiposity may contribute to worsened cancer control. Current measures of obesity, such as body-mass index (BMI), are poor surrogates of adiposity, while visceral-to-subcutaneous adiposity ratio (VSR), which can be measured from routine computed tomography (CT) imaging, is a direct adiposity measure.

Article Synopsis
- Invasive candidiasis (IC) is a major concern in hospitals, often difficult to diagnose due to limitations in blood culture methods.
- A study evaluated the effectiveness of the FungiXpert® BDG Detection Kit for diagnosing IC, showing it had a sensitivity of 60.52% and specificity of 81.81% among 80 patients tested.
- Results indicated that higher BDG levels correlated with more severe outcomes, suggesting the kit could be useful for diagnosis, especially in resource-limited settings.
