This cross-sectional observational study examined the association between dietary copper intake and cognitive function in American older adults, using data from the 2011 to 2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Analyzing a total of 2420 participants, dietary copper intake was determined by averaging two 24-h dietary recalls, whereas cognitive function was assessed by… Continue reading Association between dietary #copper intake and #cognitive function in American older adults: NHANES 2011–2014

Body #mass index and #breast cancer risk among #postmenopausal women with and without cardiometabolic diseases: Findings from two prospective cohort studies in Europe
BackgroundAdiposity, measured by body mass index (BMI), is a known risk factor for postmenopausal breast cancer. However, whether the association of BMI with breast cancer risk differs among women with and without cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) or type 2 diabetes (T2D) is uncertain.MethodsThis study used individual participant data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and… Continue reading Body #mass index and #breast cancer risk among #postmenopausal women with and without cardiometabolic diseases: Findings from two prospective cohort studies in Europe
Later #eating #timing in relation to an individual internal clock is associated with lower #insulin sensitivity and affected by genetic factors
BackgroundAlthough the contribution of the circadian clock to metabolic regulation is widely recognized, the role of eating timing in glucose metabolism and diabetes risk remains insufficiently studied. This study aimed (i) to investigate the link between the eating timing pattern relative to individual clock and glucose homoeostasis and (ii) to explore the contribution of genetic… Continue reading Later #eating #timing in relation to an individual internal clock is associated with lower #insulin sensitivity and affected by genetic factors
Risk of #dementia following #gabapentin prescription in chronic low back #pain patients
Introduction Gabapentin is widely used to treat chronic pain, but its association with cognitive decline and dementia remains unclear. This study examined whether gabapentin prescription is associated with dementia in adults with chronic low back pain.Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the TriNetX national database of de-identified patient records from 2004 to 2024.… Continue reading Risk of #dementia following #gabapentin prescription in chronic low back #pain patients
Health effects associated with consumption of processed #meat, #sugar -sweetened beverages and trans fatty acids: a Burden of Proof study
Previous research suggests detrimental health effects associated with consuming processed foods, including processed meats, sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and trans fatty acids (TFAs). However, systematic characterization of the dose–response relationships between these foods and health outcomes is limited. Here, using Burden of Proof meta-regression methods, we evaluated the associations between processed meat, SSBs and TFAs and… Continue reading Health effects associated with consumption of processed #meat, #sugar -sweetened beverages and trans fatty acids: a Burden of Proof study

The effect of #camel #milk on house dust mite allergen induced #asthma model in BALB/C mice
Camel milk has demonstrated robust immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties in various clinical and experimental studies. However, no previous studies have characterized the cellular immunological effects of camel milk in the context of allergic asthma. Therefore, the present work aimed to evaluate the protective effects of camel milk in house dust mite induced asthma in mice,… Continue reading The effect of #camel #milk on house dust mite allergen induced #asthma model in BALB/C mice
Personal night #light exposure predicts incidence of #cardiovascular diseases in >88,000 individuals
Importance Light at night causes circadian disruption, which is a known risk factor for adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, it is not well understood whether personal light exposure patterns predicts and individual’s risk of cardiovascular diseases.Objective To assess whether day and night light exposure predicts incidence of cardiovascular diseases, and whether relationships of light with cardiovascular… Continue reading Personal night #light exposure predicts incidence of #cardiovascular diseases in >88,000 individuals
