Inappropriate dietary habits in tobacco smokers as a potential risk factor for lung cancer: Pomeranian cohort study.

Objective: Little is known whether diet quality modulates lung cancer risk in smokers. The aim of the study was to assess the dietary habits of a large group of volunteers participating in the lung cancer screening program.

Methods: The 62-item food frequency questionaire was completed by 5997 participants, 127 of whom (2.

Adherence to the 2021 dietary guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology on cardiovascular disease prevention in residents of the Pomeranian Voivodeship with increased cardiovascular risk.

Introduction: Good eating habits can reduce cardiovascular risk.

Objectives: The aim of this work was to verify the compliance with the new European Society of Cardiology (ESC) dietary guidelines in people with increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

Patients And Methods: The study included 1244 current or former smokers (636 men and 608 women) at a mean (SD) age of 61.

Plant-based diets contribute to lower circulating leptin in healthy subjects independently of BMI.

Much research has shown how important role leptin - a hormone secreted by adipose tissue - plays in the regulation of human body weight, mainly due to its appetite-decreasing effects. Under the conditions of energy balance, leptin is an indicator of the amount of triglycerides stored in adipose tissue. In contrast, in a state of hunger or overeating, it acts as an energy balance sensor, and when its level is too high, it fails to reduce food intake, disturbing maintenance of the proper body mass.

Dietary Lipids and Dyslipidemia in Chronic Kidney Disease.

The progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) leads to altered lipid metabolism. CKD patients exhibit high blood triglyceride (TG) levels, reduced concentrations and functionality of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), and elevated levels of atherogenic small, dense, low-density lipoproteins (sdLDL). Disorders of lipid metabolism and other metabolic disturbances place CKD patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Multi-omic signatures of atherogenic dyslipidaemia: pre-clinical target identification and validation in humans.

Background: Dyslipidaemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. The molecular mechanisms that translate dyslipidaemia into atherogenesis and reliable markers of its progression are yet to be fully elucidated. To address this issue, we conducted a comprehensive metabolomic and proteomic analysis in an experimental model of dyslipidaemia and in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH).
