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
Effect of hormone replacement therapy on #atherogenic lipid profile in postmenopausal women
..Recent studies suggest that hormone replacement therapy (#HRT) is cardioprotective when initiated early after menopause, but the mechanisms involved are still unclear. One-hundred and forty postmenopausal women <70 years were included in EVTET and randomized either to active treatment (one tablet of 2 mg estradiol and 1 mg norethisterone acetate daily) (n = 71) or placebo (n = 69). Our study show… Continue reading Effect of hormone replacement therapy on #atherogenic lipid profile in postmenopausal women
