A lifestyle intervention with an energy-restricted Mediterranean diet and physical activity enhances HDL function: a substudy of the PREDIMED-Plus randomized controlled trial
(Elsevier, 2021-11)
Background
Consumption of a Mediterranean diet, adequate levels of physical activity, and energy-restricted lifestyle interventions have been individually associated with improvements in HDL functions. ...
Mediterranean diet, energy restriction, physical activity, and atherogenicity of very-low density lipoproteins: findings from two randomized controlled trials
(Wiley-VCH GmbH, 2023-01)
Scope: Some very-low density lipoprotein (VLDL) properties may render themmore pro-atherogenic. We aimed to assess whether a Mediterranean diet(MedDiet) or an energy-reduced MedDiet with increased ...
Increased consumption of virgin olive oil, nuts, legumes, whole grains, and fish promotes HDL functions in humans
(Wiley Online Library, 2019-01)
Scope
To evaluate whether increases in the consumption of cardioprotective food groups (virgin olive oil, nuts, fruits/vegetables, legumes, whole grains, fish, and wine) are associated with improvements ...
Role of HDL function and LDL atherogenicity on cardiovascular risk: a comprehensive examination
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2019-06)
Background
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) functionality and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) atherogenic traits can describe the role of both particles on cardiovascular diseases more accurately than HDL- ...
Cancer signaling transcriptome is upregulated in type 2 diabetes mellitus
(MDPI, 2020-12-29)
We aimed to explore the differences in the whole transcriptome of peripheral blood mononuclear cells between elderly individuals with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D). We conducted a microarray-based ...
High-density lipoprotein characteristics and coronary artery disease: a Mendelian randomization study
(Elsevier, 2020-09)
Background
To assess whether genetically determined quantitative and qualitative HDL characteristics were independently associated with coronary artery disease (CAD).
Methods
We designed a two-sample ...
Modification of high-density lipoprotein functions by diet and other lifestyle changes: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials
(MDPI, 2021-12)
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) functional traits have emerged as relevant elements that may explain HDL antiatherogenic capacity better than HDL cholesterol levels. These properties have been improved ...
Dietary diversity and nutritional adequacy among an older spanish population with metabolic syndrome in the PREDIMED-Plus Study: A cross-sectional analysis
(MDPI, 2019-04)
Dietary guidelines emphasize the importance of a varied diet to provide an adequate nutrient intake. However, an older age is often associated with consumption of monotonous diets that can be nutritionally ...
Sourdough bread with different fermentation times: A randomized clinical trial in subjects with metabolic syndrome
(MDPI, 2024-07)
The Mediterranean diet, featuring sourdough bread, shows promise in managing metabolic syndrome. This study explored the effects of two sourdough breads, with differing fermentation times but similar ...
Association between beverage consumption and environmental sustainability in an adult population with metabolic syndrome
(MDPI, 2024-03)
Beverages are an important part of the diet, but their environmental impact has been scarcely assessed. The aim of this study was to assess how changes in beverage consumption over a one-year period can ...
