Background
Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption has been linked with higher risk of mortality. This multi-centre study investigated associations between food intake by degree of processing, using the Nova classification, and all-cause and cause-specific mortality.
Methods
This study analyzed data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition. All-cause mortality and cause-specific mortality due to cancer, circulatory diseases, digestive diseases, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease served as endpoints. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were estimated using multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models. Substitution analyses were also performed.
Findings
Overall, 428,728 (71.7% female) participants were included in the analysis and 40,016 deaths were documented after 15.9 years of follow-up. UPFs (in percentage grams per day [g/d]) were positively associated with all-cause mortality (HRs per 1-SD: 1.04; 95% CI: 1.02,1.05), as well as mortality from circulatory diseases (1.09; 95% CI: 1.07,1.12), cerebrovascular disease (1.11; 95% CI: 1.05,1.17), ischemic heart disease (1.10; 95% CI: 1.06,1.15), digestive diseases (1.12; 95% CI: 1.05,1.20), and Parkinson’s disease (1.23; 95% CI: 1.06,1.42). No associations were found between UPFs and mortality from cancer or Alzheimer’s disease. Replacing processed and UPFs with unprocessed/minimally processed foods was associated with lower mortality risk.
Interpretation
In this pan-European analysis, higher UPF consumption was associated with greater mortality from circulatory diseases, digestive diseases, and Parkinson’s disease. The results support growing evidence that higher consumption of UPFs and lower consumption of unprocessed foods may have a negative impact on health.

Background
It is unclear whether changes in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in primary care influence AMR in hospital settings. Therefore, we investigated the dynamic association of AMR between primary care and hospitals.
Methods
We studied resistance percentages of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates to co-amoxiclav, ciprofloxacin, fosfomycin, nitrofurantoin and trimethoprim submitted by primary care, hospital outpatient and hospital inpatient settings to the Dutch National AMR surveillance network (ISIS-AR) from 2008 to 2020. For each bacterium–antibiotic combination, we first conducted multivariable logistic regressions to calculate AMR odds ratios (ORs) by month and healthcare setting, adjusted for patient-related factors and a time term. Second, multiple time series analysis was done using vector autoregressive models including the (log) ORs for each bacterium–antibiotic combination. Models were interpreted by impulse response functions and Granger-causality tests.
Findings
The main AMR association was unidirectional from primary care to hospital settings with Granger-causality p-values between <0.0001 and 0.029. Depending on the bacterium–antibiotic combination, a 1% increase of AMR in E. coli and K. pneumoniae in primary care leads to an increase of AMR in hospital settings ranging from 0.10% to 0.40%. For ciprofloxacin resistance in K. pneumoniae, we found significant bidirectional associations between all healthcare settings with Granger-causality p-values between <0.0001 and 0.0075.
Interpretation
For the majority of bacterium–antibiotic combinations, the main AMR association was from primary care to hospital settings. These results underscore the importance of antibiotic stewardship at the community level.

In recent decades, relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) became more treatable through new disease-modifying therapies (DMTs). Identifying safe treatments with minimal fetal risks for family planning is needed.
Methods
In this prospective cohort from the German MS and Pregnancy Registry (DMSKW), we analyzed pregnancy and neonatal outcomes in MS-patients using descriptive statistics and logistic/linear regression models to compare DMT-exposed pregnancies to DMT-unexposed pregnancies.
Findings
In 2885 DMT-exposed and 837 DMT-unexposed pregnancies, exposure was not associated with spontaneous abortions, preterm births or major congenital anomalies (MCAs). Severe infections were rare, but more frequent in the Fumarates-group (11/395: 2.8% vs. 8/837 unexposed-group: 1.0%, p-value: 0.03). Antibiotic-use was associated with 2nd-trimester (OR: 2.47, CI: 1.47, 4.05, p-value: <0.001), 3rd-trimester Natalizumab-exposure (OR: 1.75, CI: 1.15, 2.63, p-value: 0.01), and anti-CD20-exposure (OR: 2.16, CI: 1.41, 3.29, p-value: <0.001). Birthweight was significantly reduced in the Sphingosine-1-phosphate-group (β: −132 g, CI: −205, −60, p-value: <0.001), and 3rd-trimester Natalizumab-subgroup (β: −74 g, CI: −138, −9.4, p-value: 0.02). Small for gestational age (SGA) neonates were common in the Sphingosine-1-phospate- (OR: 1.65, CI: 1.07, 2.50, p-value: 0.02) and anti-CD20-group (OR: 1.54, CI: 1.01, 2.32, p-value: 0.04), and also the entire cohort (651/3459: 18.8%), exceeding the general German population rate (10%) (p-value: <0.001).
Interpretation
We observed an increased SGA risk, especially following highly-effective DMTs, although the pathomechanisms remain unclear. More research is needed on infection risks and MCAs, perhaps by linking different registries.

背景:近几十年来,通过新的疾病修饰疗法(dmt),复发缓解型多发性硬化症(MS)变得更容易治疗。为计划生育确定胎儿风险最小的安全治疗方法是必要的。方法:在这个来自德国MS和妊娠登记处(DMSKW)的前瞻性队列中,我们使用描述性统计和logistic/线性回归模型分析MS患者的妊娠和新生儿结局,比较dmt暴露妊娠和未暴露妊娠。结果:在2885例接触dmt和837例未接触dmt的妊娠中,接触dmt与自然流产、早产或重大先天性异常(MCAs)无关。严重感染罕见,但富马酸酯组更常见(11/395:2.8% vs. 8/837未暴露组:1.0%,p值:0.03)。使用抗生素与妊娠中期相关(OR: 2.47, CI: 1.47, 4.05, p值):解释:我们观察到SGA风险增加,特别是在高效dmt后,尽管病理机制尚不清楚。需要对感染风险和MCAs进行更多的研究,或许可以通过将不同的登记处联系起来。资金:DMSKW部分由Almirall、Biogen、Hexal、Merck、Novartis、Roche、Sanofi Genzyme、Teva Pharma和Viatris提供支持。

背景:生理性脐带夹紧(PBCC)对早产儿出生时的心血管过渡有益,并可能优化胎盘输血。PBCC是否能改善临床结果尚不清楚。充气、呼吸、夹持(ABC3)试验的目的是测试PBCC是否能改善极早产儿的完整生存。方法:ABC3试验是一项平行组、多中心、随机、对照的优势临床试验,在荷兰所有三级转诊中心进行围产期护理,涉及妊娠30周前出生的婴儿。根据胎龄和治疗中心,将婴儿随机分为PBCC组或基于时间的延迟脐带夹紧(TBCC)组。接受PBCC的婴儿在脐带完整的情况下稳定,在达到心肺稳定(心率>00 bpm, SpO2 >85%,同时补充氧气)后夹住脐带。研究结果:从2019年1月25日到2022年10月2日,669名婴儿被随机分配(中位胎龄27+5周(IQR 26+2-28+6)),并纳入意向治疗人群。339例PBCC患儿中有241例(71.1%)存活,而330例TBCC患儿中有223例(67.6%)存活(优势比1.18,95% CI 0.84-1.66;绝对风险差3.1个百分点,95% CI -11.0 ~ 15.8, p = 0.33)。预先指定的亚组分析显示,PBCC后男婴的完整生存率为69.9%,TBCC后为61.8%(优势比2.32,95% CI 1.42-3.78, p为相互作用0.026)。次要结果显示,PBCC后红细胞输注减少(比率比0.83,95% CI 0.75-0.92, p = 0.0003),迟发性脓毒症发生率降低(27.4%对33.3%,比值比0.77,95% CI 0.62-0.95, p = 0.013),入院温度降低(36.3°C对36.7°C,平均差值-0.5,95% CI -0.8 - -0.3, p)解释:在整个队列中,与TBCC相比,极早产儿的PBCC并没有增加无严重脑损伤或坏死性小肠结肠炎的生存率。对男性婴儿可能有益的效果需要其他试验的证实。PBCC是安全的,父母报告更多的满足感和更少的焦虑。资助:荷兰卫生研究与发展组织。

Parents were less anxious (Likert scale 1.52 (SD 0.97) versus 2.23 (SD 1.35); p < 0.001) and more content (Likert scale 4.74 (SD 0.75) versus 4.49 (SD 0.97); p < 0.001) after PBCC.</div></div><div><h3>Interpretation</h3><div>PBCC in very preterm infants did not increase survival without major cerebral injury or necrotizing enterocolitis compared to TBCC in the entire cohort. A possible beneficial effect in male infants requires confirmation from other trials. PBCC was safe to perform and parents reported more contentment and less anxiety.</div></div><div><h3>Funding</h3><div><span>The Netherlands Organi","PeriodicalId":53223,"journal":{"name":"Lancet Regional Health-Europe","volume":"48 ","pages":"Article 101146"},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11664066/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142883553","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}

Background
Lyme disease (LD) is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi and is the most common tickborne disease in the northern hemisphere. Although classical characteristics of LD are well-known, the diagnosis and treatment are often delayed. Laboratory diagnosis by serological testing is recommended for most LD manifestations. The objective of this study was to describe clinical characteristics and associated serological profiles in children with LD.
Methods
This retrospective cohort study included children aged 0–18 years, diagnosed with LD according to current guidelines at University Children's Hospital Zurich between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2020. Two-tier serological testing with the recomWell enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and recomLine Western blot (MIKROGEN Diagnostik, MIKROGEN GmbH, Neuried, Germany) was performed at the Institute of Medical Microbiology, University of Zurich.
Findings
In total, 469 children diagnosed with LD were included (median age, 7.9 years); 190 patients (40.5%) with Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB), 171 (36.5%) patients with skin manifestations (erythema migrans, n = 121; multiple erythema migrans, n = 11; borrelial lymphocytoma, n = 37; and acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans, n = 2), and 108 (23.0%) patients with Lyme arthritis. We observed seasonal variations for patients with skin manifestations and LNB, with high prevalence in May–October, but not for patients with Lyme arthritis. Significant differences between LD manifestation groups were found for age, inflammatory parameters, and specificity and concentration of B. burgdorferi-specific serum antibody responses. We observed distinct patterns of pronounced serum antibody responses against B. burgdorferi antigens in LNB (IgM against VlsE, p41, and OspC) and Lyme arthritis (IgG against p100, VlsE, p58, p41, p39, and p18).
Interpretation
Our study is one of the largest and most detailed for children with LD. We present unique findings regarding the differences in clinical characteristics and immune responses between various manifestations of LD in children.
Funding
No specific funding to disclose for this study.
背景:莱姆病(LD)由伯氏疏螺旋体引起,是北半球最常见的蜱传疾病。虽然LD的典型特征是众所周知的,但诊断和治疗往往被推迟。对于大多数LD表现,建议通过血清学检测进行实验室诊断。本研究的目的是描述LD儿童的临床特征和相关血清学特征。方法:这项回顾性队列研究纳入了2006年1月1日至2020年12月31日在苏黎世大学儿童医院根据现行指南诊断为LD的0-18岁儿童。在苏黎世大学医学微生物学研究所,采用recomWell酶联免疫吸附试验和recomLine Western blot (MIKROGEN diagnostics, MIKROGEN GmbH, Neuried, Germany)进行两级血清学检测。结果:共纳入469名诊断为LD的儿童(中位年龄7.9岁);莱姆病(LNB) 190例(40.5%),皮肤表现171例(36.5%)(移行性红斑,n = 121;多发性迁移性红斑,n = 11;疏螺旋体淋巴细胞瘤,37例;慢性萎缩性肢端皮炎(n = 2),莱姆病关节炎108例(23.0%)。我们观察了皮肤表现和LNB患者的季节性变化,5 - 10月患病率较高,但莱姆病患者患病率不高。LD表现组之间在年龄、炎症参数、伯氏疏螺旋体特异性血清抗体反应的特异性和浓度方面存在显著差异。我们观察到LNB(针对VlsE、p41和OspC的IgM)和莱姆病关节炎(针对p100、VlsE、p58、p41、p39和p18的IgG)中针对伯氏疏螺旋体抗原的明显血清抗体反应模式。我们的研究是针对儿童LD的最大和最详细的研究之一。我们提出了关于儿童LD不同表现之间临床特征和免疫反应差异的独特发现。资金来源:本研究没有具体的资金来源。
