However, these treatments often inflict damage on non-target tissues, necessitating the development of effective radioprotective agents. Zinc, known for its diversified role under various pathological conditions, has emerged as a potential protective agent against radiation-induced injuries due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immune-regulating properties.AimThis review aims to evaluate the potential of zinc in mitigating the adverse effects associated with radiation-based therapies, focusing on its protective role in normal tissue injury.MethodsA comprehensive literature review was conducted using multiple databases, including PubMed, NCBI, SciFinder, Google Scholar and Science Direct. Relevant studies assessing the radioprotective effects of zinc were identified and analysed to summarise its efficacy and potential benefits in radiation therapy.ResultsThe review highlights the beneficial effects of zinc in managing radiation-induced adverse effects, such as oral mucositis, skin injury, dermatitis, xerostomia, dysgeusia, dysosmia, bone marrow regeneration and oxidative stress reduction. Zinc's role as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, along with its ability to regulate immune system homeostasis, underpins these protective effects.ConclusionsZinc shows promising potential as a radioprotective agent in mitigating the adverse effects of radiation-based therapies. Despite the positive preclinical and clinical findings, further randomised trials with larger sample sizes and rigorous methodologies are needed to confirm zinc's efficacy. Additionally, further research is warranted to explore zinc's potential in addressing other radiation-induced events, ultimately contributing to improved patient care during radiation therapy.</p>","PeriodicalId":19352,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and health","volume":" ","pages":"2601060251329404"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144102301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nine mediation models for each FPP were created, and mediation analysis with percentile-corrected bootstrap confidence intervals adjusted for demographic and anthropometric data was performed to examine the direct and mediation effects. <b>Results:</b> Significant direct effects were observed for all nine models (<i>B</i> = 0.33-0.74, <i>p</i> < 0.001). In addition, partial mediation was established in all the models without AFW for one FPP. Adulthood IH (indirect effect-adjusted model: <i>B</i> = 0.06-0.13) and AFW (B = -0.03-0.06, except for one FPP model) mediated the association between FPPs and adult PSO. The indirect effects accounted for 11.4-22.3% (IH) and 3.6-5.6% (AFW) of the total effects, respectively. <b>Conclusion:</b> The results provide new insights for the establishment of appropriate FPPs to promote PSO. This study suggests the potential impact of FPPs on PSO in adulthood.</p>","PeriodicalId":19352,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and health","volume":" ","pages":"2601060251341002"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144079168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
