COVID-19 is an unprecedented global pandemic. On 12 March 2020, a lockdown order was issued in Italy attempt to contain the health crisis. The study aimed assess impact of on diet, physical activity, sleep quality, and distress Italian cohort. An online anonymous interview, which included validated questionnaires created compare lifestyle habits pre- during lockdown. Data analysis from 604 subjects with mean age 29.8 years carried out using multivariate analysis. Compared pre-COVID-19 times,...
<h3>Abstract</h3> The balance between hematopoietic progenitors and differentiated hemocytes is finely tuned during development. In the larval organ of <i>Drosophila</i>, called lymph gland, receptor tyrosine kinase Pvr signals from cells to maintain a pool undifferentiated progenitors. However, little known about processes that support function. small GTPase Ral involved in regulation several membrane trafficking events. <i>Drosophila</i> has single protein, Rala, which been implicated...
Abstract Dietary folate intake has been identified as a potentially modifiable factor of gastric cancer (GC) risk, although the evidence is still inconsistent. We evaluate association between dietary and risk GC well potential modification effect alcohol consumption. pooled data for 2829 histologically confirmed cases 8141 controls from 11 case–control studies international Stomach Cancer Pooling Consortium. was estimated using food frequency questionnaires. used linear mixed models with...
Abstract The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet is an effective measure in the prevention and treatment of CVD. We evaluated recent trends socio-economic differences DASH score UK population, using education, occupation income as proxies position (SEP). analysed data on 6416 subjects aged 18 years older collected National Diet Nutrition Survey (2008–2016). was calculated sex-specific quintiles items. Multiple linear regression quantile models were used evaluate trend...
Intestinal permeability has been related to colorectal cancer (CRC) development. Zonulin, a protein able regulate tight junction function and intestinal permeability, emerges as promising marker elucidate the contribution of bacterial translocation in CRC. An Italian case-control study included 77 CRC cases, 72 adenoma 76 healthy controls (for total 148 tumor-free subjects), aged 20–85. Serum zonulin levels were quantified by ELISA kit blood 16S rRNA gene copies DNA extraction polymerase...
Low-calorie beverages (LCBs) are promoted as healthy alternatives to sugar-sweetened (SSBs); however, their effects on diet quality and cardiometabolic profile debatable. This study aimed verify the association between LCB consumption, risk factors in British adults. Data analysis from 5521 subjects aged 16 older who participated two waves of National Diet Nutrition Survey Rolling Programme (2008–2012 2013–2014) was carried out. Compared with SSB consumption associated lower energy (mean...
Abstract Apparent differences in the adoption of Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet have been reported between less and more educated individuals. However, mediating role income has not clarified. In this study, we aimed at quantifying effect on relationship education DASH score UK population. We analysed data 4864 subjects aged 18 years older collected three waves National Diet Nutrition Survey (2008–2016). The was calculated using sex-specific quintiles items. carried out a...
Diversity is a key element of diet quality. The Food Variety Score (FVS) used to assess diversity, especially in low- and middle-income countries. It sums up the number foods consumed ignoring their nutrient content. A more suitable index should combine nutritional composition. We adapted Nutritional Functional indicator (NFD), proposed by ecologists, measure diversity human diet. compared NFD FVS evaluating subjects' distributions across quartiles two indices. To evaluate which one...
We analysed data on 2842 subjects aged ≥40 years enrolled in the National Diet and Nutrition Survey (NDNS 2008-2019). Based serum 25(OH)D concentrations, study were grouped three categories: vitamin D deficiency (<25 nmol/L), insufficiency (25-49 nmol/L) sufficiency status (≥50 nmol/L). Differences CVD risk factors between or expressed standard deviation scores (SDS) estimated through weighted multiple linear regression models.
Abstract Evidence on the relationship between legume consumption and risk of specific cancer sites is inconclusive. We used data from a network case-controls studies, conducted in Italy Swiss Canton Vaud 1991 2009 to quantify association several including oral cavity, esophagus, larynx, stomach, colorectum, breast, endometrium, ovary, prostate kidney. Multiple logistic regression models controlled for sex, age, education, smoking, alcohol, body mass index fruit, vegetables, processed meat...
