Food additive mixtures are an everyday feature of our diets, especially through ultra-processed foods. In a new study, researchers from Inserm, INRAE, Sorbonne Paris Nord University, Paris Cité University and Cnam, as part of the Nutritional Epidemiology Research Team (CRESS-EREN), examined the possible links between exposure to mixtures of commonly consumed food additives and the onset of type 2 diabetes. They analysed the health data of over 100 000 adults...
Human cognitive biases can particularly affect decision-making when speed is of the essence, such as when lives are at stake in a medical emergency. A research team from Inserm and the University of Bordeaux has tested an advanced method of generative artificial intelligence (AI) , trained with data from patient records corresponding to 480 000 entries to the Bordeaux University Hospital Emergency Department.
Researchers from the Nutritional Epidemiology Research Team (CRESS-EREN), with members from Inserm, Inrae, Cnam, Université Sorbonne Paris Nord and Université Paris Cité, in collaboration with researchers from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (WHO-IARC), report an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases associated with the consumption of foods that rank less favourably on the Nutri-Score scale (new 2024 version) within the European cohort EPIC.
Inserm has published a new Collective Expert Review on the theme of multiple disabilities, commissioned by the French National Solidarity Fund for Autonomy (CNSA). The conclusions and recommendations of this Collective Expert Review provide useful new elements to improve care and help answer questions regarding the consideration, interactions and integration of people with multiple disabilities.
Inserm scientists from the Epidemiology of Childhood and Adolescent Cancers team (EPICEA – Inserm JRU 1153)[1] and the EPI-PHARE scientific interest group (ANSM/Cnam), together with experts in medically assisted reproduction (MAR), have published in JAMA Network Open the findings of a large-scale study aimed at comparing the risk of cancer in children conceived by MAR with that of children conceived naturally.
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...

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...
