How prices and income influence global patterns in saturated fat intake by age,...
Ahles, A; Muhammad, A; Yenerall, JN; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Zhang, J; Cudhea, F; Erndt-Marino, J; Miller, V; Mozaffarian, D; Abbott, P; Abdollahi, MObjective When considering proposals to improve diets, it is important to understand how factors like price and income can affect saturated fat (SF) intake and demand. In this study, we examine and estimate the influence of price and income on intake across 160 countries, by age and sex, and derive sensitivity measures (price elasticities) that vary by age, sex and world region. Design We econometrically estima...
Children's and adolescents' rising animal-source food intakes in 1990-2018 were...
Miller, V; Webb, P; Cudhea, F; Zhang, J; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Erndt Marino, J; Coates, J; Micha, R; Mozaffarian, D; Bas, M; Ali, JH; Abumweis, SAnimal-source foods (ASF) provide nutrition for children and adolescents physical and cognitive development. Here, we use data from the Global Dietary Database and Bayesian hierarchical models to quantify global, regional and national ASF intakes between 1990 and 2018 by age group across 185 countries, representing 93% of the worlds child population. Mean ASF intake was 1.9 servings per day, representing 16% of...
Incident type 2 diabetes attributable to suboptimal diet in 184 countries
OHearn, M; Lara Castor, L; Cudhea, F; Miller, V; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Zhang, J; Wong, JB; Economos, CD; Micha, R; Mozaffarian, D; Bas, M; Ali, JHThe global burden of diet-attributable type 2 diabetes (T2D) is not well established. This risk assessment model estimated T2D incidence among adults attributable to direct and body weight-mediated effects of 11 dietary factors in 184 countries in 1990 and 2018. In 2018, suboptimal intake of these dietary factors was estimated to be attributable to 14.1 million (95% uncertainty interval (UI), 13.814.4 million) ...

Efficacy of a broad host range lytic bacteriophage against E. coli adhered to u...
Sillankorva, S; Oliveira, D; Moura, A; Henriques, M; Faustino, A; Nicolau, A; Azeredo, JPersistent urinary tract infections (UTI) are often caused by E. coli adhered to urothelium. This type of cells is generally recognized as very tolerant to antibiotics which renders difficult the treatment of chronic UTI. This study investigates the use of lytic bacteriophages as alternative antimicrobial agents, particularly the interaction of phages with E. coli adhered to urothelium and specifically determin...
