saturated fat restriction has been recommended for coronary arterial disease, but the role of coconut oil (Cocos nucifera L.) extra virgin, lauric acid source in management lipid profile remains unclear.to evaluate effect nutritional treatment associated with consumption virgin anthropometric parameters and profile.we conducted a longitudinal study 116 adults both sexes presenting CAD. Patients were followed two stages: first stage (basal-3 months), intensive treatment. In second (3-6...
To investigate the effect of partially defatted Granulated Brazil nut (GBN) on biomarkers oxidative stress and antioxidant status hypertensive dyslipidemic patients nutrition drug approaches. Ninety one subjects both genders (51.6 % men), mean age 62.1 ± 9.3 years, performed a randomized crossover trial, double-blind, placebo controlled. Subjects received diet GBN 13 g per day (≈227.5 μg/day selenium) or for twelve weeks with four-week washout interval. Anthropometric, laboratory clinic...

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of Brazilian Cardioprotective Nutrition Program (BALANCE Program) on plasma levels various apolipoproteins (A-I, A-II, B, C-II, C-III, and E) lipid biomarkers over a three-year follow-up period in individuals undergoing secondary cardiovascular prevention. exploratory analysis included 276 patients aged 45 years or older with history disease within preceding decade. Participants were randomly assigned one two groups monitored three years: BALANCE group...
Appropriate dietary recommendations represent a key part of secondary prevention in cardiovascular disease (CVD). We evaluated the effectiveness implementation nutritional program on quality diet, events, and death patients with established CVD.In this open-label, multicenter trial conducted 35 sites Brazil, we randomly assigned (1:1) aged 45 years or older to receive either BALANCE Program (experimental group) conventional nutrition advice (control group). The included unique education...
Thyroid hormones can lower levels of atherogenic lipoproteins, and selenium is important in thyroid hormone homeostasis. We aimed to investigate the effects a healthy diet associated with Brazil nut (Bertholletia excelsa) dyslipidemic hypertensive patients.
Abstract Objectives This study examined the effect of Vitis vinifera grape skin extract (ACH09) on hyperglycaemia and insulin-signalling cascade in alloxan-treated mice. Methods Glycaemia, serum insulin Western blot analysis proteins were evaluated gastrocnemius muscles four groups adult mice: control, ACH09 (200 mg/kg per day, p.o.), alloxan (300 mg/kg, i.p.) + ACH09. Insulin secretion isolated pancreatic islets was also studied. Key findings Glycaemia values significantly lower than...
Abstract Objective To investigate the effects of dietary supplementation with GBNs on microvascular endothelial function in hypertensive and dyslipidemic patients. Methods Ninety‐one patients both sexes aged 62.1 ± 9.3 years received 13 g/day or a placebo for three months washout period one month between treatments. Microvascular was assessed using LSCI coupled iontophoresis ACh PORH. We also used skin video capillaroscopy to measure capillary density recruitment at rest during Plasma...
To evaluate the nutritional status of patients on hospital admission, identify length stay and parameters assessment that are most closely related with (LOS).A cross-sectional study 278 hospitalized evaluated patients' in 48 hours after admission their LOS discharge. Anthropometric biochemical parameters, to nutrition were analyzed, such as: weight, height, arm circumference (AC), waist (WC), triceps skinfold thickness (TST), mild muscle (MAMC), albumin (Alb) hemoglobin (HB). Body mass index...
Heart failure (HF) is associated with a reduction of skeletal muscle mass. Whey protein isolate (WPI) has been beneficial in increasing mass and strength, addition to improving body composition. The goal this research was evaluate the effect WPI on composition, mass, strength chronic HF patients. For purpose, twenty-five patients both genders predominantly NYHA I functional class median age 65.5 (60.5–71.0) years were used conduct randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial...
Evaluate the nutrient intake and nutritional status of food in cancer patients admitted to a university hospital, with comparison adult older age category.Cross-sectional study. This study involved hospital 2010. Dietary habits were collected using Brazilian frequency questionnaire. Participants divided two groups: adults or 4-cancer category: hematologic, lung, gastrointestinal others. Body Mass Index evaluated status.A total 86 mean 56.5 years, 55% males 42% evaluated. The category had...
to evaluate the benefit of parathyroidectomy in patients on hemodialysis, regarding nutritional and biochemical statuses, body composition health-related quality life.this is a longitudinal study involving 28 hemodialysis adult with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism evaluated before one year after surgery. Inclusion criteria: parathyroid hormone levels exceeding ten times upper normal range end-stage renal disease program. We used mass index classify status biodynamics analyzer...
Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient that performs physiological functions in the metabolism of thyroid hormone and may have association with anthropometric variables relevant to cardiovascular disease.To study associations between Se status, hormones dyslipidemic patients.Eighty-three patients were assessed a cross-sectional study. Blood samples analyzed for hormones. Anthropometric measurements taken, dietary intake was investigated.Mean plasma concentrations low patients, at 88.7 ±...
