Mothers on a VD whose youngest child was <4 years old were recruited via social media or newsletters about a VD. Participants (N=28) were between 27 and 45 years old and had been adhering to a VD between 0.5 and 23 years. Online semi-structured interviews based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. A hybrid thematic analysis approach was used to identify themes that emerged from the data. Mainly driven by ethical considerations of eating animal products, 21 (75%) women chose a VD for their child(ren). When the participant's partner followed a vegetarian diet (VEGD) or omnivorous diet (OMD), most women chose a VEGD (N=4) or OMD (N=3) for their child as well. Overall, women indicated to make well-considered choices regarding children's diet and related feeding practices. Determinants for the dietary choice for their children involved various motivations, attitudes, norms, facilitating/hindering factors and knowledge. In conclusion, driven mainly by ethical motivations, most women on a VD chose this diet for their children as well. Despite experiencing several hindering factors and acknowledging the potential negative effects of a VD, mothers seemed to make well-considered choices concerning their child's diet.","PeriodicalId":47536,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutritional Science","volume":"14 ","pages":"e26"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11950696/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143754938","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}

We explored the perspectives of those involved in a sustained (six year) real-world healthy vending initiative in a university setting in Melbourne, Australia. Qualitative interviews were undertaken with seven of the eight individuals involved in the initiative and informed by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research and the regulatory concept of social licence. Reflexive thematic analysis was used to generate themes on individual and organisational factors associated with sustainment. Two individual-level themes included participants enjoyment and skills for 'getting the job done' and working on innovative projects. Individual self-efficacy and enjoyment from working on innovative projects, combined with interviewees' perception that their organisation had a role in leading social change, contributed to the initiative's sustainment. Two organisation-level themes included the University leading innovation and having a responsibility to serve the needs of its community within the constraints of the need for 'financial viability' and the provision of 'consumer choice'. This study brings to the fore evidence on the individual and organisational characteristics that contribute to the sustainment of a healthy food vending initiative from the perspective of those involved in implementation.

Using data from the Mediators of Atherosclerosis in South Asians Living in America cohort, we conducted a cross-sectional analysis to evaluate the association between behavioural risk factors for cardiovascular disease and diet.

We used both scores to examine the association between engaging with risk factors for hypertension and the DASH diet among a cohort of South Asian adults.

The Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey (BDHS) 2022 reported that approximately two-thirds of children aged 6-23 months consumed eggs/flesh foods. However, overall consumption patterns, trends, and factors influencing ASF intake among children in Bangladesh were not well-documented. Therefore, the study aimed to assess the trends and associated factors of ASF consumption among children aged 6-23 months in Bangladesh. A total of 9401 children were extracted from four consecutive BDHS (2011, 2014, 2017/18, and 2022). The Cochran-Armitage test was conducted to assess the trends in ASF consumption, while a two-stage multilevel mixed-effects logistic regression was performed to identify the associated factors. The consumption of ASF significantly increased to 79.1% in 2017/18 from 67% in 2011 but decreased to 73.3% in 2022. ASF consumption was found to be higher among children whose mothers were educated (AOR = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.30-1.98), employed in either agricultural (AOR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.04-1.54) or non-agricultural (AOR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.07-1.72) activities, pregnant (AOR = 2.54, 95% CI = 1.66-3.87), had received ANC 1-3 times (AOR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.20-1.72) or ≥4 times (AOR = 1.59, 95% CI = 1.29-1.95), and was exposed to media (AOR = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.04-1.39). Furthermore, consumption increased with increasing the age of children, and the wealth of their families. However, children who experienced illness were less likely to consume ASF (AOR = 0.76, 95% CI = 0.68-0.86).

Decentralised study procedures address some of the recruitment and retention limitations in traditional trial methodology. Understanding participant perceptions and experiences of decentralised methods in nutrition studies is key to improving trial design and conduct. The aim of this study was to explore participant opinions about remote delivery of a dietary supplement intervention trial. Adults enrolled in a clinical trial of a milk fat globule membrane nutritional supplement for improvement of psychological wellbeing were invited to take part in a post-intervention interview. Interviews were conducted over video conferencing and transcribed. Using a semi-structured interview format six aspects of trial design were discussed: general processes, written instructions, contact throughout the study, self-collection of saliva samples, wearable device use, and cognitive assessment. Thematic analysis derived themes from the data for each of the aspects of trial conduct discussed. Seventy-three participants completed the interview. Interviewees reported a positive overall experience of the remote delivery procedures used. Accessible communication between researchers and participants and clear written instructions were identified as key to participant experience. Recall of instructions and adherence to the nutritional intervention was difficult for some respondents with suggestions made for facilitating this in future remote delivery nutrition studies. Use of wearables, in-home saliva sampling, and self-administered cognitive assessments were feasible and acceptable to most participants. The remote delivery of a nutritional intervention trial, including self-collected biological samples, is feasible and positively viewed by participants.","PeriodicalId":47536,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutritional Science","volume":"14 ","pages":"e13"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11894400/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143606019","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}

To address this evidence gap, this study used cohort data (baseline: 2018-19, follow-up: 2022-23) from the Birbhum Population Project (West Bengal, India) to analyse lifestyle risk factors and their association with incidence and remission of overweight/obesity among adults aged ≥18 years (sample: 8,974). Modified Poisson regression model was employed to attain the study objective. From 2017-2018 to 2022-2023, the prevalence of overweight/obesity increased from 15.2% (95% CI: 14.1%-16.4%) to 21.0% (95% CI: 19.7%-22.3%) among men and from 24.1% (95% CI: 22.9%-25.2%) to 33.8% (95% CI: 32.5%-35.1%) among women. Overall, 23.0% (95% CI: 21.8%-24.3%) of adults experienced incidence of overweight/obesity, while 13.9% (95% CI: 12.4%-15.6%) experienced remission. Use of motor vehicles among unemployed participants was associated with incident overweight/obesity (relative risk or RR: 1.058; 95% CI: 1.023-1.095; P: 0.001). Vigorous activity at home (including gardening, yard work, and household chores) was linked to higher odds of recovering from overweight/obesity (RR: 1.065; 95% CI: 1.008-1.125; P: 0.025). Frequent tobacco use (often/daily vs. none) was inversely associated with remission of overweight-obesity (RR: 0.689; 95% CI: 0.484-0.980; P: 0.038), as was each 1 ml in alcohol consumption (RR: 0.995; 95% CI: 0.991-0.999; P: 0.022). Discouraging habitual motor vehicle use may help prevent overweight/obesity, while promoting home-based activities may aid remission, particularly for women who are at higher risk for overweight/obesity.","PeriodicalId":47536,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutritional Science","volume":"14 ","pages":"e18"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11867824/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143544018","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}
