Background: Modest inverse associations have been found between dairy intake, particularly yogurt, and type 2 diabetes risk. Investigating associations of dairy intake with early onset of type 2 diabetes offers opportunities for effective prevention of this condition.

Objectives: This study aims to investigate the relationships between the intake of different dairy types, prediabetes risk, and continuous glycemic outcomes.

Article Synopsis
  • Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is linked to excessive sugar intake, particularly from sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB), which raises the risk of developing cardiometabolic diseases.
  • A study analyzed data from over 59,000 participants and found that each additional serving of SSB increased the risk of MetS by 6%, while moderate intake of fruit juices showed a potential protective effect.
  • Results for low/no caloric beverages (LNCB) were inconsistent, indicating that replacing SSB with LNCB or fruit juice did not significantly impact MetS incidence, suggesting further research is needed in this area.

Background & Aims: Limited observational evidence suggests that a higher intake of high-fat dairy may be associated with lower prediabetes risk, while opposite associations have been observed for low-fat milk intake. This study aimed to examine associations between baseline and changes in dairy consumption, risk of prediabetes, and glycaemic status.

Methods: 7521 participants from the prospective UK Fenland study were included (mean age 48.

Objective: Nutritional status plays a complex role in the pathophysiology and outcomes of chronic limb threatening ischaemia (CLTI). Undernutrition may be a modifiable risk factor. Given the variability in nutritional status concepts in CLTI outcomes studies, a systematic review examining the association between undernutrition and outcomes in patients with CLTI was conducted.

Background: Meat consumption could increase the risk of type 2 diabetes. However, evidence is largely based on studies of European and North American populations, with heterogeneous analysis strategies and a greater focus on red meat than on poultry. We aimed to investigate the associations of unprocessed red meat, processed meat, and poultry consumption with type 2 diabetes using data from worldwide cohorts and harmonised analytical approaches.
