Comprehensive modulatory effects of whole grain consumption on immune-mediated inflammation in middle-aged and elderly community residents: A real-world randomized controlled trial.

Background And Aims: Whole grain consumption is widely recognized as a vital component of a balanced diet. Dietary fiber has been well-documented to play a crucial role in these health benefits attributed to whole grain intake. However, population-based evidence directly linking whole grain consumption to anti-inflammatory effects, especially in the context of immune-mediated inflammation, remains limited.

Lifestyle and ADL Are Prioritized Factors Influencing All-Cause Mortality Risk Among Oldest Old: A Population-Based Cohort Study.

To identify key factors affecting all-cause mortality in the elderly aged 80 years and above. Data from Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (2011-2018) were utilized ( = 3993). A healthy lifestyle score was obtained by assigning 8 factors: smoking, drinking, exercise, sleep duration, social activity, waist circumference, BMI, and healthful plant-based diet index.

The Increased Risk of Hypertension Caused by Irrational Dietary Pattern May Be Associated with Th17 Cell in the Middle-Aged and Elderly Rural Residents of Beijing City, Northern China: A 1:1 Matched Case-Control Study.

An irrational diet has been widely considered as one of the vital risk factors of hypertension. Previous studies have indicated that immune dysfunction may be involved in the pathogenic process of hypertension, while fewer studies have mentioned whether CD4+ T cells are involved in the association between dietary pattern and hypertension. This present 1:1 matched case-control study was conducted to analyze the association among dietary pattern, CD4+ T cells and hypertension.

The effect of diet and exercise on climacteric symptomatology.

Background And Objectives: This study aimed to explore the effects of health education, diet and exercise interventions on the climacteric symptoms of perimenopausal women.

Methods And Study Design: A total of 78 perimenopausal women in a gynaecological clinic from June 2018 to August 2018 were recruited and divided randomly into the following three groups: A (centralised education alone), B (health education + per-sonalised diet guidance) and C (health education + personalised diet guidance + intensive resistance exercise). The changes in diet score, exercise habits and climacteric symptoms were observed after 3 months.

Intestinal Permeability Associated with the Loss of Skeletal Muscle Strength in Middle-Aged and Older Adults in Rural Area of Beijing, China.

The association between intestinal permeability and sarcopenia remains unclear, and few studies have mentioned the relationship between intestinal permeability and skeletal muscle strength. The present cross-sectional community study was conducted in a rural area of Beijing to explore the association between intestinal permeability and handgrip strength (HGS) in middle-aged and older adults. Serum lipopolysaccharide (LPS), diamine oxidase (DAO) and D-lactate were detected to evaluate intestinal permeability.

Dietary and Exercise Interventions for Perimenopausal Women: A Health Status Impact Study.

Purpose: To explore the impact of different intervention methods on physical health indexes of perimenopausal women.

Methods: Seventy-eight perimenopausal women were divided into three groups. Group A received routine gynecological diagnosis and treatment and participated in centralized lifestyle health education.

Dietary and exercise interventions for metabolic health in perimenopausal women in Beijing.

Background And Objectives: This study aims to investigate the effects of individualised dietary guidance and anti-resistance exercise intervention on blood pressure and metabolic indexes of perimenopausal women.

Methods And Study Design: Between June 2018 to August 2018, 78 perimenopausal women were recruited at the Gynaecological Outpatient Department of Beijing Pinggu District Hospital. After coding, they were randomly divided into three groups, A, B and C, by lottery.

Effect of Improving Dietary Structure on Serum 25(OH)VitD₃ Level in Hypertensive Patients in a Chinese Rural Area.

BACKGROUND In this study, we explored the effect of an improved dietary pattern on 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)VitD₃] level in hypertensive patients in a rural setting and investigated the possible mechanism for lowering blood pressure. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty-three participants with overweight or obesity were randomly divided into 2 groups. A 24-h dietary review method was used for dietary assessment.

Exposure to the Chinese famine in early life and self-reported arthritis risk in adulthood.

Evidence shows that undernutrition during early life is associated with an increased risk of chronic diseases in adulthood. We aimed to investigate whether exposure to the Chinese famine in the fetal or infant stage was associated with self-reported arthritis risk in adulthood. A total of 3,622 participants were included in the final analysis.

WeChat-assisted dietary and exercise intervention for prevention of gestational diabetes mellitus in overweight/obese pregnant women: a two-arm randomized clinical trial.

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the influence of a WeChat-based dietary and exercise intervention on gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) prevention in overweight/obese pregnant women in Beijing.

Methods: Overweight/obese pregnant women were recruited in the early stages of pregnancy. After screening by include and exclude standards, eligible women were randomly divided into two groups, intervention and control groups.

Effects of a dietary supplement on inflammatory marker expression in middle-aged and elderly hypertensive patients.

Objectives: We aimed to explore the effects of diet on the inflammatory response in middle-aged and elderly people with hypertension.

Methods: Thirty overweight or obese patients with stage one hypertension (age range, 45-75 years) were allocated to either the intervention or control group (n=15 per group; age- and sex-matched). Patients in the intervention group consumed a food powder supplement (100 g) instead of a regular meal.

Dietary intake and cardiometabolic biomarkers in relation to insulin resistance and hypertension in a middle-aged and elderly population in Beijing, China.

This study investigated the relationships of dietary intake and cardiometabolic biomarkers with insulin resistance and hypertension in rural middle-aged and elderly people in China. One hundred and eight middle-aged and elderly adults were recruited in Zhangfang village in May 2014. We measured blood pressure, anthropometric parameters, and biochemical indexes, including high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), glucose, insulin, and blood lipids.

Associations of prepregnancy body mass index and gestational weight gain with pregnancy outcomes in nulliparous women delivering single live babies.
