Article Synopsis
- Coronary artery disease (CAD) significantly impacts mortality in developed countries, and factors like diet and lifestyle can influence its risk.
- A study with 362 adults assessed the relationship between CAD risk scores and dietary, anthropometric, and biochemical factors, revealing key associations with metabolic syndrome (MS) and uric acid levels.
- Findings indicate that lower CAD risks are linked to younger age, higher muscle mass, and appropriate intake of saturated fat and fiber, while MS and elevated uric acid levels increase CAD risk.
