Organismal aging has been associated with diverse metabolic and functional changes across tissues. Within the immune system, key features of physiological hematopoietic cell aging include increased fat deposition in the bone marrow, impaired hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) function, and a propensity towards myeloid differentiation. This shift in lineage bias can lead to pre-malignant… Continue reading Systemic deficits in lipid homeostasis promote aging-associated impairments in #B cell progenitor development

#Lipidome changes due to improved dietary #fat quality inform cardiometabolic risk reduction and precision #nutrition
Current cardiometabolic disease prevention guidelines recommend increasing dietary unsaturated fat intake while reducing saturated fats. Here we use lipidomics data from a randomized controlled dietary intervention trial to construct a multilipid score (MLS), summarizing the effects of replacing saturated fat with unsaturated fat on 45 lipid metabolite concentrations. In the EPIC-Potsdam cohort, a difference in… Continue reading #Lipidome changes due to improved dietary #fat quality inform cardiometabolic risk reduction and precision #nutrition
The role of different lipid measures for incident hypertension during more than 12 years follow-up: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
To examine the associations of different lipid measures and related indices with incident hypertension during a median follow-up of 12.89 years. Fasting levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C and LDL-C, respectively), and related indices (TC/HDL-C and TG/HDL-C) were determined in 7335 Iranian adults (men=3270) free of hypertension,… Continue reading The role of different lipid measures for incident hypertension during more than 12 years follow-up: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
Elevated #LDL cholesterol and increased risk of myocardial #infarction and #atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in individuals aged 70–100 years: a contemporary primary prevention cohort
Findings of historical studies suggest that elevated LDL cholesterol is not associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in patients older than 70 years. We aimed to test this hypothesis in a contemporary population of individuals aged 70–100 years.. ..Between Nov 25, 2003, and Feb 17, 2015, 91 131 individuals were enrolled… Continue reading Elevated #LDL cholesterol and increased risk of myocardial #infarction and #atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in individuals aged 70–100 years: a contemporary primary prevention cohort
Interventions to Improve #Statin Tolerance and Adherence in Patients at Risk for #Cardiovascular Disease
Strategies to improve patients' tolerance of and adherence to statins may enhance the effectiveness of dyslipidemia treatment in those at risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD).. ..One SR, 1 RCT, and 4 cohort studies were included. The SR found that intensified patient care improved adherence and decreased levels of total serum cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol… Continue reading Interventions to Improve #Statin Tolerance and Adherence in Patients at Risk for #Cardiovascular Disease
Effect of Cerebrovascular and/or Peripheral #Artery Disease With or Without Attainment of #Lipid Goals on Long-term Outcomes in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease
Involvement of atherosclerosis in extracardiac vascular territories may identify coronary artery disease (CAD) patients at higher risk for adverse events. We investigated the long-term prognostic implications of polyvascular disease in patients with CAD, and further analyzed lipid goal attainment and its relation to patient outcomes. The study was a retrospective analysis of 10,297 patients undergoing… Continue reading Effect of Cerebrovascular and/or Peripheral #Artery Disease With or Without Attainment of #Lipid Goals on Long-term Outcomes in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease
#Beverage Consumption and Longitudinal Changes in Lipoprotein Concentrations and Incident #Dyslipidemia in US Adults: The Framingham Heart Study
Limited data are available on the prospective relationship between beverage consumption and plasma lipid and lipoprotein concentrations. Two major sources of sugar in the US diet are sugar‐sweetened beverages (SSBs) and 100% fruit juices. Low‐calorie sweetened beverages are common replacements.. ..We found that regular (>1 serving per day) versus low (<1 serving per month) SSB… Continue reading #Beverage Consumption and Longitudinal Changes in Lipoprotein Concentrations and Incident #Dyslipidemia in US Adults: The Framingham Heart Study
#Lifestyle Changes in Relation to Initiation of #Antihypertensive and #Lipid‐Lowering Medication: A Cohort Study
Lifestyle modification is a key component of cardiovascular disease prevention before and concurrently with pharmacologic interventions.. ..In participants who initiated medication use, body mass index increased more (difference in change 0.19; 95% CI, 0.16–0.22) and physical activity declined (−0.09 metabolic equivalent of task hour/day; 95% CI, −0.16 to −0.02) compared with noninitiators. The likelihood of… Continue reading #Lifestyle Changes in Relation to Initiation of #Antihypertensive and #Lipid‐Lowering Medication: A Cohort Study
Does chronic high-intensity #endurance training have an effect on cardiovascular markers of active populations and athletes? Systematic review and meta-analysis
There was significant improvement in high-density #lipoprotein with weighted standardised mean difference and effect size=−1.06 (−1.83 to −0.30), p=0.006. We have also observed a significant reduction in low-density lipoprotein and total cholesterol with weighted standardised mean difference and effect size=−0.97 (−1.58 to −0.36), p=0.002, and = −0.78 (−1.34 to −0.22), p=0.007, respectively. There was a… Continue reading Does chronic high-intensity #endurance training have an effect on cardiovascular markers of active populations and athletes? Systematic review and meta-analysis
