Article Synopsis
  • Research suggests that consuming fermented dairy products is linked to a lower risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) over a 20-year period compared to non-fermented products.
  • A study in Greece involving over 3,000 participants showed that those who ate more than two servings of fermented dairy daily had a 1.5 times lower CVD risk.
  • The findings imply that dietary guidelines should encourage the consumption of fermented dairy products while cautioning against increased whole-fat dairy intake.

Background: To explore whether the age at onset (AAO) of Chinese patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) increased over time due to a reduced exposure to leptospiral infection.

Methods: We performed an independent, multicenter, retrospective study based on data from patients with MMD who initially attended four tertiary hospitals in Hubei, China, from 1996 to 2020. After stratifying the year of MMD onset into five periods (1996-2000, 2001-2005, 2006-2010, 2011-2015, and 2016-2020), we analyzed the temporal trends in AAO and compared different classes of AAO (early-onset, < 20 years; intermediate-onset, 20-49 years; late-onset, ≥ 50 years) in each period.
