Gut microbiota composition is directly associated with response to immunotherapies in cancer. How the diet impacts the gut microbiota and downstream immune responses to cancer remains unclear. Here, we show that consumption of a common non-nutritive sweetener, sucralose, modifies microbiome composition, restricts T cell metabolism and function, and limits immunotherapy response in preclinical models of… Continue reading #Sucralose consumption ablates #cancer immunotherapy response through #microbiome disruption

Association between ultra-processed #food consumption and #lung #cancer risk: a population-based cohort study
Background The evidence on associations between ultra-processed foods (UPF) and lung cancer risk is limited and inconsistent.Research question Are UPF associated with an increased risk of lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC)？Methods Data of participants in this study were collected from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO)… Continue reading Association between ultra-processed #food consumption and #lung #cancer risk: a population-based cohort study
Association of #Egg Intake With #Alzheimer’s #Dementia Risk in #Older Adults: The Rush #Memory and Aging Project
BackgroundAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with increasing prevalence due to population aging. Eggs provide many nutrients important for brain health, including choline, omega-3 fatty acids, and lutein. Emerging evidence suggests that frequent egg consumption may improve cognitive performance on verbal tests, but whether consumption influences the risk of Alzheimer’s dementia and AD is… Continue reading Association of #Egg Intake With #Alzheimer’s #Dementia Risk in #Older Adults: The Rush #Memory and Aging Project
Association between dietary #copper intake and #cognitive function in American older adults: NHANES 2011–2014
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
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
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 relationship between #polyunsaturated #fatty acids and #inflammation: evidence from cohort and Mendelian randomization analyses
Omega-3 (n-3) and omega-6 (n-6) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are thought to have anti- and pro-inflammatory roles, respectively, and influence the risk of various chronic diseases. However, it is unclear whether these associations are causal.MethodsWe examined the associations of dietary polyunsaturated FAs with biomarkers of systemic inflammation: C-reactive protein (CRP), glycoprotein acetyls (GlycA), and interleukin… Continue reading The relationship between #polyunsaturated #fatty acids and #inflammation: evidence from cohort and Mendelian randomization analyses
Genetic Correlation and Mendelian Randomization Analyses Support Causal Relationships Between Instant #Coffee and Age-Related #Macular Degeneration
Coffee is a popular beverage, and previous cohort studies suggest it may reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). However, confounding factors in these studies necessitate further exploration of causal relationships using advanced methods. We obtained data on coffee consumption from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and the latest AMD-related GWAS summary data from the… Continue reading Genetic Correlation and Mendelian Randomization Analyses Support Causal Relationships Between Instant #Coffee and Age-Related #Macular Degeneration
