Anomalous part of baryon current in chiral effective field theory

Question

Let's assume QCD at high energies. It has $SU_{L}(3)\times SU_{R}(3)$ global symmetry. At $\Lambda_{\text{QCD}}$ scale this group is spontaneously broken to $SU_{f}(3)$. We can then extract Goldstone degrees of freedom from quark fields, $q \to Uq$, and replace $\bar{q}q$ term by vacuum expectation value. We will get chiral effective field theory in terms of $U$.

It can be shown that baryon current anomaly piece can be given in terms of $U$ as

$$J^{\mu} = \frac{\epsilon^{\mu\nu\alpha\beta}}{24 \pi^{2}}\text{Tr}\left[U^{-1}\partial_{\nu}UU^{-1}\partial_{\alpha}UU^{-1}\partial_{\beta}U\right]$$
How to derive this result?

How do you know that the formula is valid?

It is represented in Witten's article (Eq. (2)), the reference of which you've given in your answer on my question about baryons as skyrmion solution.
