To analyse the relationship between Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) adherence and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) association EAT or MedDiet at baseline AF recurrence after ablation. We included 199 from PREDIMAR trial (PREvención con DIeta Mediterránea de Arritmias Recurrentes), a single centre this substudy. All of them had computed tomography measurement. Lifestyle clinical characteristics were obtained baseline. The traditional pattern was defined...
Introduction: Dietary habits and healthy lifestyles are crucial factors impacting cardiometabolic health quality of life. Precision nutrition has emerged as a valuable tool to monitor the multiple participating in metabolic wellbeing examine possible interactions between diet health. One such approach involves use dimensional reduction methods, which aim classify subjects into distinct nutritional subgroups or dietotypes based on differential dietary intakes outcomes. Methods Results: A...
The Paleolithic diet (PaleoDiet) is an allegedly healthy dietary pattern inspired by the consumption of wild foods and animals assumed to be consumed in era. Despite gaining popularity media, different operational definitions this nutritional intake have been used research. Our hypothesis that specific components define PaleoDiet may modulate association with several health outcomes. We comprehensively reviewed currently applied scores suggested a new score based on food composition current...
To assess the association between a multi-dimensional Macronutrient Quality Index (MQI) and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Mediterranean cohort.Prospective analyses among 18,418 participants (mean age 36 years, 60.8% women) Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra (SUN) cohort. Dietary intake information was obtained through validated semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ). The MQI (expressing high-quality macronutrient intake) calculated based on three previously reported...
Introduction: currently, it is important to determine whether food frequency questionnaires (FFQ) are valid tools collect information on usual diet in children. Objective: we evaluated the reproducibility and validity of semi-quantitative FFQ used a Spanish cohort children aged 4-7 years. Methods: explore its reproducibility, parents filled 138-item at baseline (FFQ-0) then one year later (FFQ-1). To validity, FFQ-1 was compared with four weighed 3-day dietary records (DRs) that were as...
Abstract Background: Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption is increasing exponentially, becoming a matter of concern for Public Health, given its adverse health effects. Objective: To identify individual and faGmily factors predicting UPF in childhood. Design: The SENDO project an ongoing prospective dynamic cohort Spanish children. In this study, we used baseline information participants recruited between January 2015 June 2021. Dietary was collected with validated semi-quantitative FFQ,...
Translational research has documented the conjoint beneficial relationships between dietary and physical activity habits concerning weight maintenance. However, precise interplay diet exercise impacting body composition remains unclear, challenging personalized interventions. This study aimed to explore potential interactions effect modifications of these factors affecting mass index (BMI) within an online adult cohort. Data from 11,883 NUTRiMDEA cohort participants were analyzed in this...
No previous study has assessed the relationship between overall macronutrient quality and all-cause mortality. We aimed to prospectively examine association a multidimensional index (MQI) mortality in SUN (Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra) (University of Navarra Follow-Up) study, Mediterranean cohort middle-aged adults. Dietary intake information was obtained from validated 136-item semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaire. calculated MQI (categorized quartiles) based on three...

CVD was defined as acute...
The double burden of malnutrition compels us to reconsider macronutrients from a diet quality perspective. Macronutrient Quality Index (MQI) has been designed reflect overall macronutrient and is based on three sub-indexes: the carbohydrate index (CQI), healthy plate protein (HPPQI) fat (FQI). Nutritional adequacy an essential aspect that should be captured by reliable dietary indexes.
Chronic viral inflammation is associated with oxidative stress and changes in gut microbiota. The Mediterranean diet (MD), recognized anti-inflammatory antioxidant properties, modulates microorganisms, specifically on the interaction between extra virgin olive oil, a key component of MD well-documented effects.
