Thus, this study aims to assess factors associated with delayed initiation of breastfeeding among mothers who gave birth by cesarean section in public health facilities of Gamo and Gofa zones, south Ethiopia. <b>Methods:</b> This multicenter, facility-based, cross-sectional study was conducted across five hospitals in the Gamo and Gofa zones that offer cesarean delivery services.

Unlike glucose, fructose bypasses critical regulatory steps in metabolism, particularly the phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1) feedback inhibition, leading to uncontrolled metabolism and increased fat storage. This review delves into the metabolic consequences of fructose consumption, including its limited role in directly stimulating insulin secretion, which affects satiety signaling and contributes to increased food intake. The small intestine initially helps metabolize ingested fructose, shielding the liver and brain from excessive exposure. However, when consumed in excess, particularly in diets high in processed foods, this protective mechanism becomes overwhelmed, contributing to metabolic disorders such as insulin resistance, obesity, and fatty liver disease. The review also explores fructose's impact on the brain, with a focus on the hippocampus, a key region for memory and learning. Chronic high fructose intake has been linked to mitochondrial dysfunction, increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and neuroinflammation, all of which contribute to cognitive decline and impairments in memory and learning. Additionally, fructose-induced alterations in insulin signaling in the brain are associated with increased risk for neurodegenerative diseases. These findings underscore the potential long-term neurological consequences of excessive fructose intake and highlight the need for further human studies to assess the full spectrum of its effects on brain health. Addressing the rising consumption of fructose, particularly in processed foods, is essential for developing targeted strategies to mitigate its adverse metabolic and cognitive outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":16587,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism","volume":"2025 ","pages":"5571686"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12037248/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144016116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A cross-sectional study determined the rates and risk factors of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and megaloblastic anemia (MA) and assessed the effect of IDA and MA on developmental outcome at Ruhengeri Referral Hospital from April 2021 to March 2022. The Cochran's formula: <i>n</i>=<i>Z</i> <sup>2</sup>PQ/<i>d</i> <sup>2</sup> was used to calculate the sample size of 318 and children aged between 6 and 59 months were purposively selected and included in the study. Venous blood specimens were collected in EDTA and clot activator tubes for complete blood count (CBC) and ferritin, respectively, used Sysmex 500i and Cobas e411 analyzers, respectively. Demographic and clinical information was collected on participants and the data were analyzed by Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) Version 20. A <i>p</i> value of less than 0.05 was considered significant at 95% confidence level. Logistic regression analysis and Chi-square test were used to examine the significance of the associations between explanatory and outcome variables. The ratio of male to female participants was 1.7:1 and the age group 12-23 was the most predominant (35.2%). IDA was more prevalent (93.4%) than MA (6.6%). The factors significantly associated with nutritional anemia at 95% confidence level were residence in rural area (OR = 3.896 and CI = 1.504-10.094), number of meal per day (OR = 23.640 and CI = 3.561-156.949), lacking knowledge of nutritional anemia (OR = 3.242 and CI = 1.205-8.723), parity (OR = 0.197 and CI = 0.108-0.360), history of breastfeeding (OR = 0.38 and CI = 0.004-0.904), source of diet (OR = 0.295 and CI = 0.088-0.988), and lack of food supplements (OR = 3.685 and CI = 1.583-8.580). Nutritional anemia was significantly associated with developmental delay (<i>p</i> < 0.0001). Iron deficiency and megaloblastic anemia present a sizeable challenge in the furtherance of primary healthcare outstandingly in young children and are associated with developmental delay. The mothers' education on nutrition and early diagnosis and management of nutritional anemia would reduce the risk of IDA and MA and related morbidity and mortality in the children at risk.</p>","PeriodicalId":16587,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism","volume":"2025 ","pages":"4724612"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11957870/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143753052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
