Opinion: ‘Backyard compostable’? Time to ban misleading claims
Now that the Federal Court of Appeal has upheld the Canadian government’s authority to ban single-use plastic items, it is time for Ottawa to take the next step and close the door on misleading claims that so-called “compostable” products and packaging belong in home or backyard composters. Composting is a vital way to improve soil health, support food security and fight climate change, but its success depends on public trust in composting systems.

Do pregnant women eat healthier than non-pregnant women of childbearing age?
We aimed to compare the dietary quality and intake of pregnant women, women planning to conceive and women of childbearing age. Fifty-five pregnant women were matched for age and pre-pregnancy body mass index with 55 women planning to conceive and 55 women of childbearing age. Three Web-based 24-h recalls were completed, from which the Canadian Healthy Eating Index was calculated. Pregnant women had greater overall diet quality scores (66.8 ± 10.7, 60.3 ± 14.1 and 61.4 ± 12.8, in pregnant vs.

Familial resemblances in human whole blood transcriptome
The first aim of this study was to quantify the contribution of genetic and common environmental effects in familial resemblances of gene expression levels in a family-based sample of 48 French Canadians from 16 families. Mean absolute correlations between relative pairs suggest an underlying genetic similarity. Similar absolute correlations for DNA methylation levels were observed in the same cohort [16].
Preoperative nutritional factors and outcomes after radical cystectomy: A narrative review
Only a few nutritional factors have been identified to predict the risk of developing complications after radical cystectomy (RC). This narrative review delineates the current known effects of preoperative nutritional status factors in this context. The report highlights the heterogeneity between study methods and results. We determined that low albuminemia values increase mortality risk and overall complications.

Total Cholesterol/HDL Cholesterol Ratio vs LDL Cholesterol/HDL Cholesterol Ratio as Indices of Ischemic Heart Disease Risk in Men: The Quebec Cardiovascular Study
Background Total cholesterol (TC)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)/HDL-C ratios are used to predict ischemic heart disease risk. There is, however, no consensus on which of these 2 indices is superior. The objective of the present study was to present evidence that the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio may underestimate ischemic heart disease risk in overweight hyperinsulinemic patients with high triglyceride (TG)–low HDL-C dyslipidemia.

Ezetimibe increases intestinal expression of the LDL receptor gene in dyslipidaemic men with insulin resistance
To gain further insight into intestinal cholesterol homeostasis in dyslipidaemic men with insulin resistance (IR) by examining the impact of treatment with ezetimibe on the expression of key genes involved in cholesterol synthesis and LDL receptor (R)-mediated uptake of lipoproteins. A total of 25 men with dyslipidaemia and IR were recruited to participate in this double-blind, randomized, crossover, placebo-controlled trial.
