Objective: To investigate the status quo and influencing factors of the first-time complementary food addition behavior of caregivers in the multi-ethnic background in the western rural areas.
Methods: In 2019, a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling was used to selecting research subjects in western rural areas. A structured questionnaire was designed by ourselves with literature review and expert consultation method, and information such as sociodemographic characteristics, feeding knowledge, and complementary food addition of 1290 caregivers and infants were collected, ordered multi-classification Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of the first complementary food addition behavior of the Han nationality and the minority nationality.
Results: In the western rural areas, only 8.22% of the caregivers had better behavior of first complementary food addition, and 16.31% of the caregivers in the Han group had a good behavior of first complementary food addition. In the minority population, only 3.64% of infant caregivers had a good behavior of first complementary food addition. In Han, parents, as caregivers, had better first complementary food addition behavior than grandparents(OR=1.7829, 95% CI 1.1651-2.7283). Among ethnic minorities, education(OR=1.753, 95%CI 1.190-2.581), family fixed assets(OR=3.870, 95%CI 1.959-7.645)and feeding knowledge(OR=3.396, 95%CI 2.749-4.195) were the promoting factors for the first complementary food addition behavior.
Conclusion: In western rural areas, caregivers' behavior of adding complementary food for the first time is generally poor.

Irritable bowel syndrome is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder characterized by recurrent abdominal discomfort, bloating, cramping, flatulence, and changes in bowel movements. The pathophysiology of IBS involves a complex interaction between motor, sensory, microbiological, immunological, and psychological factors. Diversity, stability, and metabolic activity of the gut microbiota are frequently altered in IBS, thus leading to a situation of gut dysbiosis.

Background: The Mycotoxin Mitigation Trial (MMT) was a community-based cluster-randomized trial designed to assess the effect of dietary aflatoxin (AF) on linear growth. Similar dietary intake between arms was an important component of the trial's program theory and essential for the trial's internal validity and interpretation.
Objective: This analysis assessed and compared dietary intake by arm within a sub-sample of infants enrolled in the MMT.

Introduction Emerging evidence suggests an association between obesity and Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (FGIDs). Childhood obesity and FGIDs share many common features, such as high prevalence in the pediatric population, risk factors related to diet and lifestyle, gut microbiota impairments, and psychological distress. This narrative review aims to summarize the main evidence regarding FGIDs in childhood obesity, with a specific focus on the role of diet and its impact on the microbiota.

The importance of functional food's role in human nutrition as well as in the prevention of diseases, especially the treatment of chronic diseases like cancer, is an innovative field of research. Based on the studies regarding the antioxidant potential of oyster mushroom extract, it is evident that it has anticancer properties. The current article reviews the health benefits of edible oyster-mushroom-derived bioactive compounds, and how they specifically activate or regulate the immune system by affecting the maturation, differentiation, and proliferation of immune cells, thereby inhibiting cancer cell metastasis and growth.

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are vital dietary elements that play a significant role in human nutrition. They are highly regarded for their positive contributions to overall health and well-being. Beyond the fact that they provide a substantial supply of energy to the body (a role that saturated fats can also perform), these unsaturated fatty acids and, especially, the essential ones are involved in cell membrane structure, blood pressure regulation, and coagulation; participate in the proper functioning of the immune system and assimilation of fat-soluble vitamins; influence the synthesis of pro- and anti-inflammatory substances; and protect the cardiovascular system.
