Protein supplementation delivered alone or in combination with presumptive azithromycin treatment for enteric pathogens did not improve linear growth in Bangladeshi infants: results of a cluster-randomized controlled trial.
Am J Clin Nutr

Background: Protein requirements established for healthy populations may be insufficient to support healthy growth in infants consuming largely cereal-based complementary foods and frequently exposed to enteric pathogens.
Objective: To assess independent and combined effects of protein supplementation and antibiotic treatment on linear growth of infants from 6-12 months of age.
Design: We conducted a 2 x 4 factorial cluster-randomized trial in northwestern Bangladesh, allocating 566 clusters to masked azithromycin (10 mg·kg * 3 d) or placebo at 6 and 9 months of age, and unmasked delivery of an egg white protein-rich blended food supplement (250 kcal; 10 g added protein), a rice-based isocaloric supplement, egg, or nutrition education from 6-12 months.
Effect of Rice Protein on the Gelatinization and Retrogradation of Rice Starch with Different Moisture Content.

Rice protein and moisture content are pivotal in the gelatinization and retrogradation processes of rice starch. This study aimed to explore the influence of rice protein on these processes by preparing rice starch gels with varying moisture levels and incorporating rice protein. At a high moisture content of 1:6, rice protein exhibited a minimal effect on the gelatinization properties of rice starch but significantly retarded the retrogradation of the starch gel.

Background: Given the composition of rice and its lack of gluten proteins, rice flour fails to form a cohesive and elastic dough when mixed directly with water. Consequently, many rice products rely on rice sheets (RS) made by rolling cooked rice dough. Limited research exists on how the rolling process impacts the properties and structure of cooked indica rice dough.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines why indica and japonica rice varieties have different floret opening times, affecting hybrid seed production.
- Through various methods like transcriptome sequencing and RT-PCR, researchers found that while some structural differences were minimal, indica rice showed earlier activation of key metabolic pathways related to floret opening.
- The results indicate that the size of the lodicule-lemma gap and the metabolic activity in indica rice contribute to its earlier flowering, potentially influencing breeding practices for hybrid rice cultivation.
The evolution of nutritional care in children with food allergies - With a focus on cow's milk allergy.

Cow's milk allergy (CMA) remains one of the most common and complex paediatric food allergies. In the last decade, our understanding has advanced in terms of immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated CMA and focus is now also paid to non-IgE-mediated CMA, particularly in some Western countries where incidence rates are high. We have had significant progress in the last 10 years in relation to our understanding of existing supportive tests for IgE-mediated CMA, with the advancement of newer tests, such as the basophil activation test (BAT), which have shown great promise.
