APOA2, Dietary Fat, and Body Mass Index: Replication of a Gene-Diet Interaction in 3 Independent Populations
(American Medical Association, 2009-11)
For the first time to our knowledge, a gene-diet interaction influencing BMI and obesity has been strongly and consistently replicated in 3 independent populations.
Inverse association between habitual polyphenol intake and incidence of cardiovascular events in the PREDIMED study
(Elsevier, 2016-06)
Background and aims
Epidemiologic and biological evidence supports an inverse association between polyphenol consumption and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, no previous studies have prospectively ...
Nutritional adequacy according to carbohydrates and fat quality
(Springer Verlag, 2016)
Purpose
To investigate the association between carbohydrate quality, fat quality or adherence to the Mediterranean diet and intake adequacy of 19 micronutrients in the PREDIMED (PREvención con DIeta MEDiterránea) trial, ...
Effect of Physical Activity, Smoking, and Sleep on Telomere Length: A Systematic Review of Observational and Intervention Studies
(MDPI, 2021-12-24)
Aging is a risk factor for several pathologies, restricting one’s health span, and promoting
chronic diseases (e.g., cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases), as well as cancer. Telomeres
are regions of repetitive ...
Sweet Taste Preference: Relationships with Other Tastes, Liking for Sugary Foods and Exploratory Genome-Wide Association Analysis in Subjects with Metabolic Syndrome
(MDPI, 2022-01)
Taste perception and its association with nutrition and related diseases (type 2 diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular, etc.) are emerging fields of biomedicine. There is currently great interest in ...
Influence of DNA-Polymorphisms in Selected Circadian Clock Genes on Clock Gene Expression in Subjects from the General Population and Their Association with Sleep Duration
(MDPI, 2022)
Background and Objectives: Circadian rhythms have an important implication in numerous physiological and metabolic processes, including the sleep/wake cycle. Inter-individual differences in factors associated with circadian ...
Heterogeneity of the Stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD1) Gene and Metabolic Risk Factors in the EPIC-Potsdam Study
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
Background: Stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD1) is an enzyme involved in lipid metabolism. In mice and humans its activity
has been associated with traits of the metabolic syndrome, but also with the prevention of saturated ...
Associations between taste perception profiles and empirically derived dietary patterns: an exploratory analysis among older adults with metabolic syndrome
(MDPI, 2021-12-29)
Taste perception is a primary driver of food choices; however, little is known about how perception of all five tastes (sweet, salt, sour, bitter, umami) collectively inform dietary patterns. Our aim was to examine the ...
Education modulates the association of the FTO rs9939609 polymorphism with body mass index and obesity risk in the Mediterranean population
(Elsevier, 2012)
Objective
To define whether the rs9939609 FTO (fat mass and obesity associated) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is associated with anthropometric measurements and its modulation by educational level in a Mediterranean ...
Ultra-processed foods consumption as a promoting factor of greenhouse gas emissions, water, energy, and land use: A longitudinal assessment
(Elsevier, 2023)
Background: Dietary patterns can produce an environmental impact. Changes in people's diet, such as the increased consumption of ultra-processed food (UPF) can not only influence human health but also environment ...
