Background: Spontaneous abortion (SA) is reported to be associated with Fat Mass And Obesity-Associated FTO genotype and dietary intake of selenium. This research assessed the potential interactions between the risk of SA, dietary selenium intake, and the FTO rs9939609 polymorphism.
Methods: This case-control study encompassed 192 women who experienced SA and 347 control participants.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between transient global amnesia (TGA) and dietary intake of vitamin B12, aiming to understand how diet might influence this form of short-term memory loss.
- Conducted with 258 individuals with TGA and 520 without in Sabzevar, Iran, researchers used a Food Frequency Questionnaire to assess vitamin B12 intake and employed logistic regression models for analysis.
- Findings indicate that higher dietary intake of vitamin B12 is associated with a lower risk of TGA, suggesting that vitamin B12 deficiency could be a concern for those at risk; further research is recommended to explore this relationship.
Background: The risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) may be influenced by dietary carbohydrates. The aim of this study was to investigate the link between CVDs and the intake of carbohydrates.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, data was extracted from the Prospective Epidemiologic Research Studies in Iran (PERSIAN) cohort in Sabzevar, Iran.
Article Synopsis
- Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious health problem that can lead to other issues, like anemia, and this study looked at how two types of oils could help patients who are on dialysis.
- The study involved 120 CKD patients in Iran who took either omega-3 or medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil capsules for 8 weeks to see how their iron and other levels changed.
- The results showed that MCT oil helped to increase iron levels more than omega-3, but other factors like hemoglobin and ferritin levels didn't change much, and more research is needed on MCT oils.
Background: Based on the results of many studies on the relationship between nutritional status and clinical implications in dialysis patients, malnutrition is one of the most important factors associated with mortality in these patients. The current study examined the effect of nutritional education based on Health Belief Model (HBM) on nutritional knowledge, HBM constructs, and dietary intake in Hemodialysis (HD) patients.
Materials And Methods: One-hundred chronic HD patients entered to this randomized clinical trial in 2017 in Iran; 41 in control group and 45 in intervention group completed the study.
