#Mortality Risk Among Women With #Premenstrual Disorders in Sweden
Key PointsQuestion Do women with premenstrual disorders (PMDs) have higher risks of all-cause and cause-specific mortality compared with women without PMDs?Findings This nationwide matched cohort study of 406 488 women in Sweden during a mean (SD) follow-up of 6.2 (4.6) years (range, 1-18 years) revealed that overall, women with diagnosed PMDs did not have an increased risk of… Continue reading #Mortality Risk Among Women With #Premenstrual Disorders in Sweden
Adherence to the #low-fat diet pattern reduces the risk of #lung cancer in American adults aged 55 years and above: a prospective cohort study
ObjectivesThere is little evidence on the association between low-fat dietary patterns and lung cancer risk among middle-aged and older adults. To fill this gap, we comprehensively investigated the association of adherence to a low-fat diet (LFD) and intake of different fat components including saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids with incidence of lung cancer and… Continue reading Adherence to the #low-fat diet pattern reduces the risk of #lung cancer in American adults aged 55 years and above: a prospective cohort study
Consumption of #fruits and #vegetables and its association with #sleep duration among Finnish adult population: a nationwide cross-sectional study
Introduction: Sleep and diet are crucial determinants of overall health and wellbeing, with the potential to mutually influence each other. This study examined the association between sleep duration and fruits and vegetables (FV) consumption among Finnish adults.Methods: The study analyzed data from the National FinHealth 2017 Study involving 5,043 adults aged 18 years and above. Participants reported… Continue reading Consumption of #fruits and #vegetables and its association with #sleep duration among Finnish adult population: a nationwide cross-sectional study
#Ketogenic diet induces p53-dependent cellular #senescence in multiple organs
A ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet that leads to the generation of ketones. While KDs improve certain health conditions and are popular for weight loss, detrimental effects have also been reported. Here, we show mice on two different KDs and, at different ages, induce cellular senescence in multiple organs, including the heart… Continue reading #Ketogenic diet induces p53-dependent cellular #senescence in multiple organs
Real-world data of radiofrequency catheter #ablation in paroxysmal atrial #fibrillation: Short- and long-term clinical outcomes from the prospective multicenter REAL-AF Registry
BackgroundThe safety and long-term efficacy of radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation (CA) of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) has been well established. Contemporary techniques to optimize ablation delivery, reduce fluoroscopy use, and improve clinical outcomes have been developedObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to assess the contemporary real-world practice approach and long-term outcomes of RF CA for… Continue reading Real-world data of radiofrequency catheter #ablation in paroxysmal atrial #fibrillation: Short- and long-term clinical outcomes from the prospective multicenter REAL-AF Registry

Older adults at greater risk for #Alzheimer’s disease show stronger associations between sleep #apnea severity in #REM sleep and verbal memory
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) increases risk for cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). While the underlying mechanisms remain unclear, hypoxemia during OSA has been implicated in cognitive impairment. OSA during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is usually more severe than in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, but the relative effect of oxyhemoglobin desaturation during REM… Continue reading Older adults at greater risk for #Alzheimer’s disease show stronger associations between sleep #apnea severity in #REM sleep and verbal memory
The microbiome-driven impact of western #diet in the development of noncommunicable chronic disorders
Noncommunicable chronic disorders (NCDs) are multifactorial disorders that share a state of chronic, low-grade inflammation together with an imbalance of gut microbiota. NCDs are becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide, and mainly in Western countries, with a significant impact on global health.Societal changes, together with the widespread diffusion of modern agricultural methods and food processing, have led… Continue reading The microbiome-driven impact of western #diet in the development of noncommunicable chronic disorders
