Emulsifiers are among the additives most widely used by the food industry, helping to improve the texture of food products and extend their shelf life. Researchers from Inserm, INRAE, Université Sorbonne Paris Nord, Université Paris Cité and Cnam, as part of the Nutritional Epidemiology Research Team (CRESS-EREN), studied the possible links between the dietary intake of food additive emulsifiers and the onset of type 2 diabetes between 2009 and...
In order to implement suitable public health policies, it is crucial to know the health status of the population and its evolution over time. This knowledge is all the more important given the severe disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic to healthcare systems worldwide. For the first time, a study by teams from Inserm, Université de Bordeaux and Bordeaux University Hospital in collaboration with Santé publique France, French National...
Emulsifiers are among the additives most widely used by the food industry, helping to improve the texture of food and extend its shelf life. Researchers from Inserm, INRAE, Université Sorbonne Paris Nord, Université Paris Cité and Cnam, as part of the Nutritional Epidemiology Research Team (CRESS-EREN), have undertaken to study the possible links between the dietary intake of food additive emulsifiers and the development of cancer. They analysed the...
A study led by scientists from INRAE, the Barcelona Institute for Global Health, Inserm, and the Université Sorbonne Paris Nord, has revealed that the time at which we eat could influence our risk of developing cardiovascular disease. This study, carried out on a sample of over 100,000 people from the NutriNet-Santé cohort, followed between 2009 and 2022, suggests that eating a late first or last meal is associated with...
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects many children and is often accompanied by other conditions, such as metabolic disorders, asthma and dental caries. However, uncertainties remain as to the chronology of onset of such conditions, particularly when it comes to knowing which are linked with ADHD over time or, on the other hand, which increase the risk of developing ADHD symptoms. Scientists from Inserm and Université de Bordeaux at the...
In several European countries where the incidence rates of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) are high, a high frequency of unsafe parental sleep practices has also been observed. In addition, it is known that pictures conveying implicit or explicit health messages can lead to the modification of health practices. Researchers from Inserm, Université Paris Cité and HEC Paris, in collaboration with the Greater Paris University Hospitals (AP-HP), Nantes University...
The association between sleep disorders and cardiovascular risk is already well documented. Apnea, sleep deficit, and insomnia are linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases and stroke. A new study has now explored this association in much greater depth.
To what extent does early or excessive screen exposure affect children’s cognitive development? This is a question that is currently dividing scientists. A team led by Inserm researcher Jonathan Bernard at the Center for Research in Epidemiology and Statistics (Inserm/INRAE/Université Paris Cité/Université Sorbonne Paris Nord) studied the data of nearly 14,000 children from the French Elfe cohort for each child from the age of 2 to 5.5 years....
Emulsifiers are among the additives most widely used by the food industry, helping to improve the texture of food and extend its shelf life. Researchers from Inserm, INRAE, Université Sorbonne Paris Nord, Université Paris Cité and Cnam, as part of the Nutritional epidemiology research team (EREN-CRESS), studied the impacts on cardiovascular health of the consumption of emulsifiers.
In a study of a cohort of 683 elderly Bordeaux residents followed up over 10 years, researchers from Inserm and Université de Bordeaux at the Bordeaux Population Health research center showed accelerated thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer in the participants more exposed to air pollution, especially those who had a greater exposure to PM2.5 (fine particulate matter of a diameter of 2.5 microns or less). This study...
