Serum Phospholipid Docosahexaenoic Acid Is Inversely Associated with Arterial Stiffness in Metabolically
Healthy Men
We hypothesized that lower proportion of serum phospholipid docosahexaenoic acid
(DHA) is inversely associated with increased cardiovascular risk and vascular function in
metabolically healthy men. To elucidate it, we first compared serum phospholipid free
fatty acid (FA) compositions and cardiovascular risk parameters between healthy men (n
= 499) and male patients with ...

Reduced circulating adiponectin levels are associated with the metabolic syndrome independently of obesity, lipid indices and serum insulin levels: a cross-sectional study
Background: Given the increasing rate of overweight and the burden of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on
cardiovascular disease development, better understanding of the syndrome is of great importance. Therefore, the
objectives were to examine whether interleukin-6 (IL-6)

Red pitaya juice supplementation ameliorates energy balance homeostasis by modulating obesity-related genes in highcarbohydrate, high-fat diet-induced metabolic syndrome rats
Background: Red pitaya (Hylocereus polyrhizus) or known as buah naga merah in Malay belongs to the cactus
family, Cactaceae. Red pitaya has been shown to give protection against liver damage and may reduce the stiffness
of the heart. Besides, the beneficial effects of red pitaya against obesity have been reported; ...

Postmenopausal Women Have Higher HDL and Decreased Incidence of Low HDL than Premenopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome
Abstract: It is well known that plasma lipids, waist circumference (WC) and blood pressure (BP)
increase following menopause. In addition, there is a perceived notion that plasma high-density
lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations also decrease in postmenopausal women. In this
cross-sectional study, we evaluated plasma lipids, fasting glucose, anthropometrics ...

Major components of metabolic syndrome and nutritional intakes in different genotype of UCP2 −866G/A gene
polymorphisms in patients with NAFLD
Background: It has been suggested that dietary modifications in combination with genetic predisposition play an
important role in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. In the current study we aimed to investigate the major components of
metabolic syndrome in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nutritional intakes according to
diffe...

Incidence of Nitrituria and Its Association With Metabolic
Syndrome: Results From the Korean National Health and
Nutrition Examination Survey V (2010–2012)
Purpose: To investigate the incidence of nitrituria and the relationship between nitrituria and metabolic syndrome (MetS). Methods: Data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey V were used. A total of 19,083 participants were included. The chi-square test, the Mantel-Haenszel extension, logistic regression ...

Evaluating Barriers to Adherence to Dietary Recommendations in Iranian Adults with Metabolic Syndrome: A Qualitative Study Using the Theory of Reasoned Action
Abstract
Background: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is defined as a pattern of metabolic disorders including central obesity, insu-lin resistance or hyperglycemia, high blood pressure, and dyslipidemia. Many studies show a clear relationship between diet and components of MS. The aim of the current study was to identify barriers to adherence ...
