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 ...
Association of physical activity with high-density lipoprotein functionality in a population-based cohort: the REGICOR study
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
Introduction and objectives
To determine the dose-response association between current and past leisure-time physical activity (LTPA), total and at different intensities, and high-density lipoprotein ...
Association of pre-pandemic high-density lipoprotein cholesterol with risk of COVID-19 hospitalisation and death: The UK Biobank cohort study
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
There is growing evidence of, and biological plausibility for, elevated levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) being related to lower rates of respiratory disease. We tested whether ...
Blood DNA methylation signature of diet quality and association with cardiometabolic traits
(Oxford University Press, 2023-10)
Aims
Diet quality might influence cardiometabolic health through epigenetic changes, but this has been little investigated in adults. Our aims were to identify cytosine–phosphate–guanine (CpG) dinucleotides ...
Mediterranean diet maintained platelet count within a healthy range and decreased thrombocytopenia-related mortality risk: a randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2021-02)
There is little information on the dietary modulation of thrombosis-related risk factors such as platelet count. We aimed to assess the effects of Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) on platelet count and ...
Mediterranean diet and white blood cell count — A randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2021-06)
We aimed to assess the effects of the antioxidant-rich Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) on white blood cell count. Our study population included participants in the PREvención con DIeta MEDiterránea study ...
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 decreases the initiation of use of vitamin K epoxide reductase inhibitors and their associated cardiovascular risk: a randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2020-12-19)
Our aim is to assess whether following a Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) decreases the risk of initiating antithrombotic therapies and the cardiovascular risk associated with its use in older individuals ...
Breakfast energy intake and dietary quality and trajectories of cardiometabolic risk factors in older adults
(Elsevier, 2024-12)
Objectives
Not skipping breakfast is associated with a better overall diet quality and lower cardiometabolic risk. However, the impact of calorie intake and dietary quality of breakfast on cardiovascular ...
Mediterranean diet and antihypertensive drug use: a randomized controlled trial
(Wolters Kluwer Health, 2021-06)
Objective:
To examine in older individuals at high cardiovascular risk whether following a Mediterranean diet decreased the necessity of antihypertensive drugs and modulated their associated cardiovascular ...
