Article Synopsis
- The study investigates dietary interventions for reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, emphasizing the Mediterranean diet (MD) as a key focus due to previous observational studies linking it to cardiovascular health.
- A thorough systematic search of RCTs involving adult populations was conducted, assessing various diets' effects on heart-related outcomes, ultimately analyzing data from 17 trials with over 83,000 participants.
- Findings indicate that the MD significantly reduces the risk of cardiovascular deaths and major heart events compared to control diets, suggesting its protective role in both primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease.
