This study aimed to evaluate the association between obesity and cognitive impairment. is a sub-analysis of an observational, cross-sectional in nine Latin American counties. Sociodemographic, clinical anthropometric data were collected, cognition was assessed using Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) tool 722 postmenopausal women. The mean age, body mass index (BMI) years education cohort 56.9 years, 26.8 kg/m2 13.6 respectively. Women with impairment, compared those without, had higher BMI (27.8 ± 5.9 vs. 26.6 4.9 kg/m2, p = 0.037), more children (3.1 2.4 2.5 1.7, 0.023), experienced severe menopausal symptoms (56.3% 31.9%, < 0.001) presented comorbidities (60.0% 43.8%, 0.006).

Background and aims: The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is a healthy dietary pattern associated with reduced risk of chronic diseases. However, adherence declining, particularly among younger populations. Therefore, it crucial to identify the main aspects that affect its adherence, food preferences sensory function, which have received insufficient attention. Our aims were investigate impact socio-demographic lifestyle factors on MedDiet young individuals; assess association taste liking adherence; evaluate associations between perception modalities, preferences, adherence. Methods: A cross-sectional study adults (aged 20.5 ± 4.7 years) in country (n = 879) was carried out. Demographic characteristics, clinical anthropometric assessed. Taste for bitter, salty, sweet, sour, umami determined by rating different concentrations prototypical tastants. We computed total score three scores combine preferences. Results: identified several MedDiet, as well determinants. Food significantly MedDiet. Higher preference olive oil, oranges, broccoli, fish, legumes higher (p < 0.05 all). Conversely, sweet foods, red meat, butter lower combined positive strongly 1.4 × 10−23) multivariate adjusted model. negative inversely 1.9 10−8). Likewise, (strong inverse direct bitter preference; both p 0.001). Moreover, foods 0.05). In conclusion, future precision nutrition studies should measure are determinants especially people.

Objective: Obesity represents a health risk and several studies have linked this clinical entity to cognitive deficits. Among the neuropsychological rehabilitation tools, Peak, digital application, has shown positive results as therapeutic method. The aim of work was measure, for first time, deficits effects Peak neurohabilitation therapy in patients diagnosed with obesity. Methods: treatment offered parents who agreed lasted 6 months, including neurocognitive evaluation. used five times day 20 min. Neuropsychological Attention Memory Battery (NEUROPSI) applied before after intervention. Results: revealed posttest changes attention executive function, memory, total memory. Significant were observed, diagnostic range increased from severe moderate. Conclusions: We concluded that, through an intervention app, it is possible enable which represent main obese pediatric patients.
