<p>The 22nd International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) Transplant Registry Report summarizes data from pediatric lung and combined heart-lung transplant recipients and their donors for transplants that occurred through June 30, 2018. This year’s report focuses on an overall theme of donor and recipient size match. In addition to reporting key data for pediatric lung and heart-lung transplant recipients, we report transplant types, historical trends, geographic associations, indications, donor and recipient characteristics, and transplant outcomes including rejection burden, bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), and survival for transplant recipients associated with donor and recipient size match. The full Registry slide set available online provides more detail, additional analyses, and other information not included in this printed report.</p>

<p>This continues to be an exciting time for pediatric heart transplantation. Since the first orthotopic heart transplantation a little over 50 years ago, the field has grown tremendously, including many advancements in the application of this therapy to children. Today, heart transplantation is performed routinely in many pediatric centers throughout the world with over 100 centers reporting to the International Thoracic Transplant Registry. The Registry is the largest source of worldwide data on pediatric heart transplantation with over 14,000 transplants reported in children. The focus theme for this year’s report is donor and recipient size match.</p>

<p><strong>OBJECTIVE: </strong>To measure the prevalence of cooking dinner at home in the USA and test whether home dinner preparation habits are associated with socio-economic status, race/ethnicity, country of birth and family structure.</p>

<p><strong>DESIGN: </strong>Cross-sectional analysis. The primary outcome, self-reported frequency of cooking dinner at home, was divided into three categories: 0-1 dinners cooked per week ('never'), 2-5 ('sometimes') and 6-7 ('always'). We used bivariable and multivariable regression analyses to test for associations between frequency of cooking dinner at home and factors of interest.</p>

<p><strong>SETTING: </strong>The 2007-2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).</p>

<p><strong>SUBJECTS: </strong>The sample consisted of 10 149 participants.</p>

<p><strong>RESULTS: </strong>Americans reported cooking an average of five dinners per week; 8 % never, 43 % sometimes and 49 % always cooked dinner at home. Lower household wealth and educational attainment were associated with a higher likelihood of either always or never cooking dinner at home, whereas wealthier, more educated households were more likely to sometimes cook dinner at home (P &lt; 0·05). Black households cooked the fewest dinners at home (mean = 4·4, 95 % CI 4·2, 4·6). Households with foreign-born reference persons cooked more dinners at home (mean = 5·8, 95 % CI 5·7, 6·0) than households with US-born reference persons (mean = 4·9, 95 % CI 4·7, 5·1). Households with dependants cooked more dinners at home (mean = 5·2, 95 % CI 5·1, 5·4) than households without dependants (mean = 4·6, 95 % CI 4·3, 5·0).</p>

<p><strong>CONCLUSIONS: </strong>Home dinner preparation habits varied substantially with socio-economic status and race/ethnicity, associations that likely will have implications for designing and appropriately tailoring interventions to improve home food preparation practices and promote healthy eating.</p>
