Consumption of #Olive Oil and Diet Quality and Risk of #Dementia-Related Death
Question Is the long-term consumption of olive oil associated with dementia-related death risk? Findings In a prospective cohort study of 92 383 adults observed over 28 years, the consumption of more than 7 g/d of olive oil was associated with a 28% lower risk of dementia-related death compared with never or rarely consuming olive oil, irrespective of diet… Continue reading Consumption of #Olive Oil and Diet Quality and Risk of #Dementia-Related Death
Neuronal activity in the anterior paraventricular nucleus of thalamus positively correlated with #sweetener consumption in mice
Although the brain can discriminate between various sweet substances, the underlying neural mechanisms of this complex behavior remain elusive. This study examines the role of the anterior paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (aPVT) in governing sweet preference in mice. We fed the mice six different diets with equal sweetness for six weeks: control diet (CD),… Continue reading Neuronal activity in the anterior paraventricular nucleus of thalamus positively correlated with #sweetener consumption in mice

An #osteoarthritis pathophysiological continuum revealed by molecular #biomarkers
We aimed to identify serum biomarkers that predict knee osteoarthritis (OA) before the appearance of radiographic abnormalities in a cohort of 200 women. As few as six serum peptides, corresponding to six proteins, reached AUC 77% probability to distinguish those who developed OA from age-matched individuals who did not develop OA up to 8 years… Continue reading An #osteoarthritis pathophysiological continuum revealed by molecular #biomarkers
Food #additive emulsifiers and the risk of type 2 #diabetes: analysis of data from the NutriNet-Santé prospective cohort study
Experimental studies have suggested potential detrimental effects of emulsifiers on gut microbiota, inflammation, and metabolic perturbations. We aimed to investigate the associations between exposures to food additive emulsifiers and the risk of type 2 diabetes in a large prospective cohort of French adults.MethodsWe analysed data from 104 139 adults enrolled in the French NutriNet-Santé prospective cohort… Continue reading Food #additive emulsifiers and the risk of type 2 #diabetes: analysis of data from the NutriNet-Santé prospective cohort study
Long-term exposure to residential #greenness and decreased risk of #depression and #anxiety
Residential greenness is considered a unique and potentially modifiable exposure construct to reduce physiological stress and improve human health. Here this study aims to investigate the longitudinal relationships of residential greenness with incident depression and anxiety and to explore and compare the pathways in which greenery may influence mental health. After excluding participants with depression… Continue reading Long-term exposure to residential #greenness and decreased risk of #depression and #anxiety

Use of #Acid-Suppression Therapy and Odds of #Migraine and Severe Headache in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
Headache is an adverse event associated with the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Recently, migraine has emerged more specifically as a potential adverse event with PPI use. The objectives of this work were to capitalize on existing data to evaluate the association between migraine and severe headache prevalence and use of acid-suppression therapy, including… Continue reading Use of #Acid-Suppression Therapy and Odds of #Migraine and Severe Headache in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
