This review explores the understudied topic of nutritional inequality among individuals with schizophrenia, highlighting the complex interplay between diet, genetics, and mental health. Unhealthy dietary patterns, socioeconomic factors, and disordered eating behaviors contribute to malnutrition, increasing the risk of physical health issues and premature mortality. Socioeconomic factors exacerbate nutritional disparities, necessitating targeted interventions. Genetic influences on nutrient metabolism remain under-researched, although nutritional genomics shows potential for personalized interventions. Current research reveals methodological gaps, urging larger sample sizes and standardized approaches. The integration of nutrigenomics, encompassing various omics disciplines, emerges as a transformative tool. The holistic life-cycle approach to schizophrenia management underscores the vital role of nutrition, calling for personalized interventions to enhance mental health outcomes.

Simulated retail food environments: A literature review of systems science approaches to advance equity in access to healthy diets.
Obes Rev

Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, University at Albany School of Public Health, Rensselaer, NY, USA.
As researchers increasingly utilize systems science simulation modeling (SSSM), little is known about how and by whom SSSMs are being leveraged to address inequities in access to healthy diets. We evaluated the extent to which studies (n = 66) employing SSSM to examine retail food environments (RFEs): included three pillars of equity (social position, human capital, socioeconomic and political context) that shape RFEs and access to healthy diets; grounded model design and development in theory; engaged with diverse stakeholders and lived experiences related to RFEs; and translated model findings towards addressing inequities in RFEs. Most studies (n = 58) included some model characteristics related to social position (e.

Adequate nutrition during pregnancy and postpartum is critical to maternal and child health, but there is often a missing focus around health outcomes specifically for women. Women's health includes sex-specific biological attributes and socially constructed gender roles framing behaviours and practices. This narrative review aims to highlight key areas where women's health has been underrepresented in pregnancy and postpartum nutrition research.

Background: Nutrition Skills for Life (NSFL) provides training and support for communities and organisations to implement Community Nutrition Interventions (CNIs) that meet identified needs. To inform future NSFL evaluation, this scoping review, using a realist approach sought to determine the underpinning initial programme theory (IPT) for how CNIs support socioeconomically disadvantaged (SED) communities to access a healthy diet, as detailed in the protocol doi.org/10.

Curr Cardiol Rep

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, University Medical Center HCMC, University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi Minh City, 72714, Vietnam.
Purpose Of Review: This narrative review evaluates the limitations of current heart transplantation allocation models, which prioritize medical urgency and waitlist time but fail to adequately predict long-term post-transplant outcomes. It aims to identify advanced metrics that can strengthen the prioritization framework while addressing persistent racial, geographic, and socioeconomic inequities in access to transplantation.
Recent Findings: Recent research indicates that incorporating frailty, nutritional status, immunological compatibility, and pulmonary hemodynamics into allocation frameworks can enhance the prediction of transplant outcomes.
