Dietary Restriction of Amino Acids for Cancer Therapy [PDF]
Biosyntheses of proteins, nucleotides and fatty acids, are essential for the malignant proliferation and survival of cancer cells. Cumulating research findings show that amino acid restrictions are potential strategies for cancer interventions. Meanwhile, dietary strategies are popular among cancer patients.

Dietary Calcium Intake and Obesity [PDF]
Obesity is increasing in the United States in epidemic proportions. Epidemiologic data suggest that people with high calcium intake have a lower prevalence of overweight, obesity, and insulin resistance syndrome. Studies in transgenic mice have demonstrated that calcium influences adipocyte metabolism.

Tree-Regularized Bayesian Latent Class Analysis for Improving Weakly Separated Dietary Pattern Subtyping in Small-Sized Subpopulations [PDF]
Dietary patterns synthesize multiple related diet components, which can be used by nutrition researchers to examine diet-disease relationships. Latent class models (LCMs) have been used to derive dietary patterns from dietary intake assessment, where each class profile represents the probabilities of exposure to a set of diet components.

A Comprehensive Survey of Image-Based Food Recognition and Volume Estimation Methods for Dietary Assessment [PDF]
Dietary studies showed that dietary-related problem such as obesity is associated with other chronic diseases like hypertension, irregular blood sugar levels, and increased risk of heart attacks. The primary cause of these problems is poor lifestyle choices and unhealthy dietary habits, which are manageable using interactive mHealth apps.

Nutritional Economics of Dietary Calcium [PDF]
CALCIUM has been the subject of hundreds of papers and discussions. Frequently attention has been focused on either the chemical, physiological, nutritional, or dietetic aspect of the element. Cost of calcium in the various fornms of foods and pharmaceuticals has also been mentioned from time to time, but apparently with insufficient effect ...

Multi-study factor regression model: an application in nutritional epidemiology [PDF]
Diet is a risk factor for many diseases. In nutritional epidemiology, studying reproducible dietary patterns is critical to reveal important associations with health. However, it is challenging: diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds may critically impact eating patterns, showing heterogeneity, leading to incorrect dietary patterns and obscuring the ...

Diet and bone mineral density study in postmenopausal women from the TwinsUK registry shows a negative association with a traditional English dietary pattern and a positive association with wine [PDF]
Background: The effect of diet on bone mineral density (BMD) remains controversial, mainly because of difficulties in isolating dietary factors from the confounding influences of age, lifestyle, and genetic factors.

NutritionVerse-Real: An Open Access Manually Collected 2D Food Scene Dataset for Dietary Intake Estimation [PDF]
Dietary intake estimation plays a crucial role in understanding the nutritional habits of individuals and populations, aiding in the prevention and management of diet-related health issues. Accurate estimation requires comprehensive datasets of food scenes, including images, segmentation masks, and accompanying dietary intake metadata.

A novel model to explain dietary factors affecting hypocalcaemia in dairy cattle [PDF]
Most dairy cows exhibit different degrees of hypocalcaemia around calving because the gestational Ca requirements shift to the disproportionately high Ca requirements of lactation.
