Omega-3 Fatty Acid Could Increase One of Myokines in Male
Patients with Coronary Artery Disease: A Randomized,
Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial
Background: Omega-3 fatty acids have a protective role against cardiovascular disease and these protective properties are attributed to its anti-inflammatory effects. Myokines have anti-inflammatory properties and thereby reduce low-grade inflammation. Irisin, as a myokine is considered to be therapeutic for human metabolic diseases. This study was conducted to determine the effects of Omega-3 fatty acids supplementation on serum irisin in ...

The Role of Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in
Heart Failure: A Meta-Analysis of Randomised
Controlled Trials
Many new clinical trials about the effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in heart failure (HF) patients have shown inconsistent results. Therefore, a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) was performed to determine the benefits of omega-3 PUFAs in HF patients. Articles were obtained from PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. RCTs comparing omega-3 PUFAs with placebo for HF were included. Two reviewers independently extracted the data from ...

Long-Term Immunomodulatory Effects of a
Mediterranean Diet in Adults at High Risk
of Cardiovascular Disease in the PREvencion´
con DIeta MEDiterranea (PREDIMED) ´
Randomized Controlled Trial1–3
Background: The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) has demonstrated short-term anti-inflammatory effects, but little is known about its long-term immunomodulatory properties. Objective: Our goal was to assess the long-term effects of the MedDiet on inflammatory markers related to atherogenesis in adults at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared with the effects of a low-fat diet (LFD). ...

Dietary Patterns and Blood Pressure in Adults: A
Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of
Randomized Controlled Trials
Hypertension is a major risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease, stroke, and kidney disease. To lower blood pressure (BP), several lifestyle changes are recommended such as weight loss, exercise, and following a healthy diet. Investigating the effect of single nutrients may have positive results, but food is consumed as part of a whole diet, resulting in nutrient interactions. The aim of this systematic review and metaanalysis was to assess the effect of dietary ...

Relationship between sleep duration and
Framingham cardiovascular risk score and
prevalence of cardiovascular disease in Koreans
Studies have shown sleep duration to be related to the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and hypertension. However, whether sleep duration is associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and the prevalence of CVD irrespective of conventional CV-risk factor, such as diabetes mellitus, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, has not been well established for the Korean population. A total of 23,878 individuals aged 18 years or older from the 2007–2010 Korean ...

Actions of Quercetin, a Polyphenol, on Blood Pressure
Disorder of blood pressure control causes serious diseases in the cardiovascular system. This review focuses on the anti-hypertensive action of quercetin, a flavonoid, which is one of the polyphenols characterized as the compounds containing large multiples of phenol structural units, by varying the values of various blood pressure regulatory factors, such as vascular compliance, peripheral vascular resistance, and total blood volume via anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant actions. In addition to the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant ...

Nut consumption and risk of cardiovascular
disease, total cancer, all-cause and causespecific
mortality: a systematic review and
dose-response meta-analysis of prospective
studies
Background: Although nut consumption has been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality, data on less common causes of death has not been systematically assessed. Previous reviews missed several studies and additional studies have since been published. We therefore conducted a systematic
review and meta-analysis of nut consumption and risk of cardiovascular disease, total ...

Etiologic effects and optimal intakes of foods
and nutrients for risk of cardiovascular
diseases and diabetes: Systematic reviews
and meta-analyses from the Nutrition and
Chronic Diseases Expert Group (NutriCoDE)
Background
Dietary habits are major contributors to coronary heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. However, comprehensive evaluation of etiologic effects of dietary factors on cardiometabolic outcomes, their quantitative effects, and corresponding optimal intakes are not wellestablished.
Objective
To systematically review the evidence for effects of dietary factors on cardio...
