Methodological considerations and cost to measure coverage of multisectoral nutrition interventions: protocol for the One Nutrition Coverage Survey in Bangladesh

BMJ Open
Introduction Despite global commitments to eliminate malnutrition, over half the world’s population remains affected. Multisectoral nutrition interventions targeting both proximate and distal causes of malnutrition are essential across the lifespan. Yet,

Starfish as feedstuff (OK-Net Ecofeed Practice Abstract) [PDF]

, 2020
• Starfish should be harvested, at the earliest, three months before spawning to have highest protein and lowest ash content. • High calcium levels limit the inclusion level of starfish meal in piglets’ diets to around 5%.

Macronutrients as sources of food energy. [PDF]

, 2005
This background paper considers the extent to which the development of new recommendations for dietary energy requirements needs to account for the macronutrient (fat, carbohydrate, protein and alcohol) profiles of different diets.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
