Given the increasing social and economic burden of chronic disease need for efficient approaches to prevent treat disease, emphasis on use information communication technology (ICT)-based health care has emerged. We aimed test feasibility a mobile application, Diet-A, examine whether Diet-A could be used monitor dietary intake among adolescents. In three-month pre–post intervention study, 9 male 24 female high school students aged 16–18 years consented participated in this study....
Evidence on the association of serum folate and homocysteine concentrations with risk mortality in general population is unclear. This study aimed to examine associations all-cause, CVD, cancer Korean men women aged ≥40 y. In this population-based prospective cohort study, were measured a subset participants enrolled between 2005 2012. A total 21,260 linked data from survey date 31 December 2019. Cox proportional hazards models restricted cubic splines used identify mortality. During median...
We aimed to examine whether dietary patterns that explain the variation of triglyceride (TG) high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio were associated with incidence type 2 diabetes in Korean adults. included a total 5097 adults without at baseline mean follow-up 11.54 years. Usual diet was assessed by validated food frequency questionnaire, and serum levels TG HDL-C measured baseline. derived pattern scores using 41 groups as predictors TG/HDL-C response variable stepwise linear...
There is limited evidence for the association between dietary pattern and quality of life among breast cancer survivors. We examined patterns health-related (HRQoL) Korean Our study included a total 232 women, aged 21 to 79 years, who had been diagnosed with stage I III underwent surgery at least 6 months prior our baseline evaluation. assessed HRQoL using European Organization Research Treatment Cancer Quality Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) Breast Module 23 (QLQ-BR23). conducted...
Use of dietary supplements among cancer survivors is common and controversial, but information on the amount nutrients from limited. We examined their contribution to total nutrient intake compared these data between cancer-free individuals. also identified factors associated with supplement use survivors. 400 10,387 individuals, aged ≥ 19 years, fifth Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) V-1, 2 (2010, 2011). calculated consumed foods supplements, percent...
Isoflavones are estrogen-like compounds found in plants and their health effects remain equivocal. We investigated dietary isoflavone intake its associated factors Korean breast cancer survivors, with a comparison to cancer-free women. The usual of survivors (n = 981, mean age 52 yrs) 9 hospitals between 2012 2019 was assessed using 3-day food records or frequency questionnaires (FFQs). They were age-matched 2,943 women who completed FFQs as part nationwide study conducted 2016. used the...
This study aimed to use plasma metabolites identify clusters of breast cancer survivors and compare their dietary characteristics health-related factors across the using unsupervised machine learning. A total 419 were included in this cross-sectional study. We considered 30 metabolites, quantified by high-throughput nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomics. Clusters obtained based on 4 different clustering methods: k-means (KM), partitioning around medoids (PAM), self-organizing maps (SOM),...
The link between vitamin D and cancer remains inconclusive. In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship circulating levels overall site-specific cancers in Korean adults using data from two large prospective cohort studies. Baseline serum 25-hydroxyvitamin [25(OH)D] were measured a subset of participants Cardiovascular Disease Association Study (2005-2012) Health Examinees (2009-2013). We followed 46,514 aged ≥ 40 years who consented linkage with national registry data. Cox...
There is limited evidence on the association between adherence to guidelines for cancer survivors and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In a cross-sectional study Korean breast survivors, we examined whether American Cancer Society (ACS) World Research Fund/American Institute (WCRF/AICR) was related levels HRQoL, assessed by version Core 30 (C30) Breast module 23 (BR23) European Organization Treatment Cancer-Quality Life Questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ). We included total 160 women aged 21 79...
The development and validation of guidelines for breast cancer survivors are importance due to the increased survival rate cancer. In this cross-sectional study, we aimed examine association between adherence American Cancer Society (ACS) health-related quality life (HRQoL).
