Diet-Quality Scores and the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Men
(American Diabetes Association, 2011)Objective: To 1) compare associations of diet-quality scores, which were inversely associated with cardiovascular disease, with incident type 2 diabetes and 2) test for differences in absolute-risk reduction across various ... -
Diet-related greenhouse gas emissions assessed by a food frequency questionnaire and validated using 7-day weighed food records
(BioMed Central, 2016)Background: The current food system generates about 25 % of total greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE), including deforestation, and thereby substantially contributes to the warming of the earth’s surface. To understand the ... -
Diet: Vegetables, Fruits, Associated Micronutrients, and Risk of Prostate Cancer
(Oxford University Press, 2001) -
Dietary acrylamide and risk of prostate cancer
(Wiley, 2012)Acrylamide has been designated by IARC as a probable human carcinogen. High levels are formed during cooking of many commonly consumed foods including French fries, potato chips, breakfast cereal and coffee. Two prospective ... -
Dietary and lifestyle factors in relation to plasma leptin concentrations among normal weight and overweight men
(Springer Nature, 2001)OBJECTIVE: Leptin, the product of the obesity (ob) gene, is a multi-functional polypeptide that is important in energy metabolism, which is strongly correlated with body fat mass and body mass index (BMI). In a recent ... -
Dietary and Plasma Magnesium and Risk of Coronary Heart Disease Among Women
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2013)Background: Magnesium is associated with lower risk of sudden cardiac death, possibly through antiarrhythmic mechanisms. Magnesium influences endothelial function, inflammation, blood pressure, and diabetes, but a direct ... -
Dietary anthocyanin intake and age-related decline in lung function: longitudinal findings from the VA Normative Aging Study123
(American Society for Nutrition, 2016)Background: It is unknown whether habitual intake of dietary flavonoids, known for their antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties, affects longitudinal change in lung function. Objective: We investigated whether ... -
Dietary antioxidants and long-term risk of dementia

Dietary Calcium and Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Status in Relation to BMD Among U.S. Adults
(Wiley, 2009)A higher calcium intake is still the primary recommendation for the prevention of osteoporosis, whereas vitamin D deficiency is often not addressed. To study the relative importance of dietary calcium intake and serum ... -
Dietary Carbohydrate, Glycemic Index, and Glycemic Load in Relation to Risk of Colorectal Cancer in Women
(Oxford University Press, 2006)Diets with a high glycemic index and glycemic load have been hypothesized to be implicated in the etiology of colorectal cancer owing to their potential to increase postprandial glucose and insulin levels. Prospective data ... -
Dietary carbohydrates and glycaemic load and the incidence of symptomatic gall stone disease in men
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2005)Background: Diets with a high glycaemic response exacerbate the metabolic consequences of the insulin resistance syndrome. Their effects on the incidence of gall stone disease are not clear, particularly in men. Methods: ... -
Dietary Carotenoids and Risk of Colorectal Cancer in a Pooled Analysis of 11 Cohort Studies
(Oxford University Press, 2006)Dietary carotenoids have been hypothesized to protect against epithelial cancers. The authors analyzed the associations between intakes of specific carotenoids (alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein + ... -
Dietary carotenoids and risk of coronary artery disease in women
(Oxford University Press, 2003)Background: Numerous studies have shown that higher intakes or higher blood concentrations of carotenes are associated with a lower risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). Given the null results in trials of beta-carotene ... -
Dietary Choline and Betaine and the Risk of Distal Colorectal Adenoma in Women
(Oxford University Press, 2007)Background: Choline and betaine are involved in methyl-group metabolism as methyl-group donors; thus, like folate, another methyl-group donor, they may be associated with a reduced risk of colorectal adenomas. No epidemiologic ... -
Dietary Factors and Biomarkers Involved in the Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Genotype–Colorectal Adenoma Pathway
(Elsevier, 2006)Background: & Aims: Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is involved in intracellular folate homeostasis and metabolism. We assessed 2 polymorphisms in the MTHFR gene (C677T and A1298C) in relation to colorectal ... -
Dietary Fat and Coronary Heart Disease: A Comparison of Approaches for Adjusting for Total Energy Intake and Modeling Repeated Dietary Measurements
(Oxford University Press, 1999)Previous cohort studies of fat intake and risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) have been inconsistent, probably due in part to methodological differences and various limitations, including inadequate dietary assessment and ... -
Dietary fat and risk of coronary heart disease in men: cohort follow up study in the United States.
(1996)Objective-To examine the association between fat intake and the incidence of coronary heart disease in men of middle age and older.Design-Cohort questionnaire study of men followed up for six years from 1956.Setting-The ... -
Dietary fat intake and risk of ovarian cancer in the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study
(Nature Publishing Group, 2012)Background: Fat intake has been postulated to increase risk of ovarian cancer, but previous studies have reported inconsistent results. Methods: The NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study, a large prospective cohort, assessed diet ... -
