Ketogenic low-carbohydrate high-fat (LCHF) diets are popular among young, healthy, normal-weight individuals for various reasons. We aimed to investigate the effect of a ketogenic LCHF diet on low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (primary outcome), LDL subfractions and conventional cardiovascular risk factors in blood women. The study was randomized, controlled, feeding trial with crossover design. Twenty-four women were assigned 4 week (4% carbohydrates; 77% fat; 19% protein) followed...

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to compare bioelectrical impedance analysis and skinfold measurements for the estimation body fat in adults. METHODS: We analyzed data from 292 adult participants enrolled a cross-sectional population-based study. Four were performed, percentage estimated using Petroski formula. Bioelectrical performed tetrapolar electrical bioimpedance device. compared Student's t-test, Robinson's coefficient agreement, Cronbach's alpha, linear regression...

The goal of this study was evaluate the conicity index (C index) in women and its association with hypertension (SAH) diabetes mellitus (DM).This a cross-sectional study, 573 between 20 59 years age. After analysis clinical demographic characteristics, anthropometric variables were measured used to calculate C index. Plasma glucose lipid profile evaluated by standard methods. results based on logistic regression odds ratio (OR) calculated, which assess variable outcome exposure using two...

Omega-3 (ω-3) fatty acids have been extensively studied for primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular health, but their ability to modulate HDL functionality remains unclear. The purpose this study was investigate the role ω-3, rich in eicosapentaenoic (EPA) docosahexaenoic (DHA), on functionality. For that, 147 individuals with high risk were randomized ω-3 (1 g fish oil each - 370 mg EPA 230 DHA, 3 times per day total EPA+DHA = 1,800 mg) or ω-6 groups sunflower 760 linoleic acid,...

Abstract Background Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A 2 activity (Lp-PLA ) is a good marker of cardiovascular risk in adults. It strongly associated with stroke and many others events. Despite this, the impact obesity on this enzyme its relation to biomarkers disease adolescents not very well investigated. The purpose article evaluate influence cardiometabolic markers Lp-PLA adolescents. Results This cross-sectional study included 242 (10–19 years) both gender. These subjects were...

Abstract Aim To evaluate whether dietary pattern changes, antioxidant supplementation or 5–10% weight loss could improve disease activity (skin and joint) in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Methods A total of 97 PsA were enrolled this 12-week randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. Patients randomized into three groups: Diet-placebo (hypocaloric diet + placebo supplementation); Diet-fish 3 g/day omega-3 supplementation; Placebo. Food intake (3-day registry, Healthy...

Background: Lipid accumulation product (LAP), a simple and low-cost tool, is novel biomarker of central lipid represents potential surrogate marker for atherogenic lipoprotein profile. However, its association with subfractions has not been described in the literature. Objective: To determine whether LAP index could be used as low- high-density (LDL HDL) size Brazilian individuals. Methods: This cross-sectional study included patients (n = 351) both sexes age between 30-74 years. Clinical...
