Consumption of flaxseed has been increased due to its possible functional properties in health. However, chronic consumption may offer risks considering the effects lignans men and pregnant women, as well existence other phytochemicals toxic factors with adverse health seed. The present review focuses on growing body evidence potential benefits humans, supporting from human animal studies. It also raises questions that provide input for future research ingestion terms nutrient...
We aimed to evaluate the intake of dietary total polyphenols and their classes according NOVA classification among adults a Brazilian cohort study. This is cross-sectional study, in which food consumption was assessed using an Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) polyphenol content (total classes) estimated at Phenol-Explorer for each category presented as mean 95% confidence interval. Adjusted linear regression used describe trend association between quintiles (dependent variable) group...
Abstract Mental disorders are intricate and multifaceted encompass social, economic, environmental, biological factors. This study aimed to explore the potential association between vitamin D deficiency anxiety depression symptoms in adults, considering role of receptor gene polymorphism FokI (rs2228570). was a population-based cross-sectional with stratified cluster sampling, evaluating (AS) (DS) 1637 adults. Vitamin levels were measured using electrochemiluminescence considered deficient...
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the primary cause of global morbidity and mortality. Movement behaviors; physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB) sleep essential for cardiovascular health, yet they often studied separately. To investigate association between movement behaviors with risk (CVR) mediated by quality. Population-based survey in two Brazilian municipalities, collected through face-to-face interview.PA practice was assessed using a question adapted from study: Surveillance...
To evaluate association of vitamin D with sleep quality in adults and the influence VDR-gene polymorphism FokI (rs2228570;A > G). Cross-sectional population-based study adults, conducted Brazil. The outcome was sleep-quality, evaluated by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Vitamin determined indirect electrochemiluminescence classified as deficiency (VDD), 25(OH)D < 20 ng/mL a healthy population or 30 for groups at risk VDD. genotyped qPCR homozygous wild (FF AA), heterozygous (Ff AG), mutant...
Framingham risk score (FRS) is an important cardiovascular assessment tool, based on objective measurements of blood pressure and lipid profile, among other factors. However, in large population surveys, these measures are not always available, which limits their use. Evaluate the performance FRS predictive results using subjective measures. Cross-sectional study 1,414 male rotating shift workers iron ore extraction company. The original was calculated systolic diastolic measurements, total...
Objective To identify possible relations between serum uric acid levels and metabolic syndrome its components in a population with cardiometabolic risk. Methods This cross-sectional study included 80 subjects (46 women), mean age of 48±16 years, seen at the Cardiovascular Health Program. Results The prevalence hyperuricemia was 6.3% 47.1%, respectively. Uric level significantly higher individuals (5.1±1.6mg/dL), as compared to those no or pre-syndrome (3.9±1.2 4.1±1.3mg/dL, respectively;...
We analyzed whether global and inflammatory genes methylation can be early predictors of metabolic changes their associations with the diet, in a cross-sectional study (n = 40). Higher was associated to adiposity, insulin resistance, lower quality diet. Methylation IL-6, SERPINE1 CRP related adiposity traits macronutrients intake. hypermethylation also some alterations. better predictor resistance than plasma concentrations. Global gene promoter good biomarkers are
Abstract Background Diabetes mellitus is a chronic and multifactorial condition, including environmental risk factors such as lifestyle habits genetic conditions. Objective We aimed to evaluate the association of VDR gene polymorphism (rs2228570) FokI vitamin D levels with diabetes in adults. Methods Cross-sectional population-based study adults, conducted from October December 2020 two Brazilian cities. The outcome variable was diabetes, defined glycated hemoglobin ≥ 6.5% or self-report...
Background: A population study is an important tool that can be used to understand the actual epidemiological scenario of Covid-19 in different territories, identify its magnitude, transmission dynamics, and demographic, geographical, social distribution. Objective: The aim this was determine prevalence dynamics SARS-CoV-2 infection two Brazilian cities during pandemic first wave subsequent socioeconomic health effects. Materials & methods: This paper described methodological procedures...
Introdução: Os distúrbios alimentares são síndromes comportamentais que têm uma etiologia multifatorial envolvendo fatores genéticos, psicológicos e socioculturais. A preocupação com a imagem corporal e, como consequência, maior incidência de alimentares, tornou-se um grande fardo entre os profissionais saúde. Objetivo: Avaliar distorção insatisfação da o risco alimentares. Métodos: Estudo transversal, 225 estudantes dos últimos dois anos cursos área saúde, município Região Sudeste do...
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought drastic changes to the lives of global population. restrictions imposed by government agencies impacted daily citizens, influencing several health behaviors, such as physical activity (PA). Thus, present study aimed assess prevalence inactivity (PI) and its associated factors before during pandemic.A population-based household seroepidemiological survey was conducted in two Brazilian municipalities located state Minas Gerais, which 1750 volunteers were...
Objective: To describe study protocol and initial results of research project COVID-Inconfidentes. Method: This paper described the methodological procedures adopted prevalence SARS-CoV-2 infection in population. A household survey was conducted between October December 2020, two historic cities Brazil's mining region. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody detected using Wondfo® rapid test. The face-to-face interview consisted administration a questionnaire containing registration data, sociodemographic...
This study hypothesized an association between healthy dietary patterns, hypermethylation of the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) promoter and decreased risk metabolic changes.Forty normal-weight young women were involved in this cross-sectional study. DNA was isolated from white blood cells, CpG site methylation TNF-α analyzed by Sequenom EpiTyper. The quality diet assessed Healthy Eating Index (HEI-2005).Contradicting our hypothesis, HEI-2005 score negatively associated with CpG5 (r =...
This study aimed to investigate the association between adult food insecurity (FI) and symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) major depressive (MDD) in two Brazilian cities during coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. used data derived from a cross-sectional survey 1693 adults. Interviews were conducted using an electronic questionnaire. The FI was measured Food Insecurity Scale. Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 measure GAD. Patient Health Questionnaire-9 for MDD symptoms. FI, GAD,...

Participants were classified physically active or inactive during leisure time according recommendations World Health...
This study was conducted to verify if the processing and storage of brown flaxseed whole flour result in loss func-tional properties, such as reduced linolenic acid content, increased lipid peroxidation sensory changes. The flours were obtained from seeds dried by heat treatment oven at 150?C, for 15 minutes subsequent grinding obtain with a particle size 20 mesh. Meal samples, without synthetic antioxidants (BHA BHT combined, 100 ppm each), stored thirty-day period, under similar conditions...
