Mercury is a known neurotoxicant; however, the relationship between childhood exposures and neurodevelopmental outcomes is uncertain, and may be modified by nutrition-related susceptibilities.
The NUTRIC score is a tool designed to quantify the risk of critically ill patients developing adverse events that may be modified by aggressive nutrition therapy, in the general population of an ICU.
As shown by our results, mineral remobilization from vegetative tissues in rice is modified by plant Fe nutrition, because different Fe supplies alter the remobilization of several minerals.
The output of these genetic programs is further modified by environmental cues, including nutrition.
For example, sizable subpopulations for whom the relationship between perchlorate exposure and serum T4 concentrations are modified by coexposure to thiocyanate, nutrition (iodide consumption), and behavior (smoking) have been identified using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database (Blount et al. 2006; Steinmaus et al. 2007).
A commercial diet (Signature Salmon 3.5 mm, Northeast Nutrition, Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada) was used and modified by the manufacturer to contain 10% or 20% canola protein concentrate (insoluble canola protein concentrate, CanPro, Arborfield Saskatchewan, Canada).

Finally, the immune response and the associated resistance can be modified by the type of antigen that is recognized and by such factors as age, nutrition, and the number of infections.
