Article Synopsis
- A Western-type diet high in salt and sugar, along with sedentary behavior and lifestyle choices like tobacco use and alcohol consumption, significantly increases the risk of hypertension due to oxidative stress and inflammation.
- The review emphasizes the importance of changing dietary habits, particularly highlighting the DASH diet and exploring the blood pressure-lowering effects of certain Indo-Mediterranean and Japanese foods, such as pulses, whole grains, vegetables, and fish.
- There's evidence from studies that these healthier diets can help prevent hypertension and metabolic diseases, but more research is needed on specific foods from these diets, especially in Japan, where hypertension rates are lower.
Submucosal injection is often required step during endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR). In clinical practice we have observed that the EMR injection solution containing hetastarch (HES) lead to selective increase of the neoplasms volume, facilitating their resection. The aim of this study was to explore the possible mechanisms of such behaviour, which was not reported elsewhere.

Western diet, characterized by highly sweetened foods, as well as being rich in fat, fried foods, red meat and processed meat, eggs, and sweet beverages, may cause inflammation, leading to oxidative dysfunction in the cardiac ultra-structure. Oxidative function of the myocardium and how oxidative dysfunction causes physio-pathological remodeling, leading to HF, is not well known.
