Diet quality, psychological factors and their associations with risk factors of cardiovascular disease: a cross-sectional pilot study.
BMJ Nutr Prev Health
December 2024
Region Kalmar County Hospital, Kalmar, Sweden.
Background: Several modifiable risk factors, including dietary habits, are linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) progression. However, lifestyle changes remain notoriously challenging, perhaps due to psychosocial factors. This pilot study aims to investigate the relationship between adherence to a healthy diet, CVD risk factors, psychological factors and sociodemographic variables among middle-aged adults in Sweden.

Eur J Prev Cardiol
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences, University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia.
Aim: To evaluate whether integrating Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) into the SCORE2 cardiovascular risk prediction framework improves its predictive accuracy and clinical applicability within the UK Biobank population.
Method: A 10-year prospective cohort study was conducted with 448,303 UK Biobank participants eligible for SCORE2 calculation. Three approaches were employed: (1) threshold analysis to determine the optimal ApoB cutoff for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk prediction using Youden's Index, (2) assessment of the synergistic effect of SCORE2 and ApoB through concordant and discordant classifications, and (3) recalibration of the SCORE2 model by incorporating ApoB as an additional predictor.
Flaxseed powder supplementation in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a randomized controlled clinical trial.
Food Funct
January 2025
Lianshui People's Hospital Affiliated to Kangda College of Nanjing Medical University, Huai'an, Jiangsu, 223400, China.
: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become a growing public health problem worldwide, and dietary interventions have important potential in the prevention and treatment of NAFLD. Moreover, previous animal studies have shown that flaxseed has a good improvement effect in animal NAFLD models. : Assess whether flaxseed powder could improve the liver lipid content in patients with NAFLD.

Alzheimers Dement
January 2025
Department of Neurology, Neurological Institute, Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan.
Introduction: Plasma phosphorylated tau (p-tau) biomarkers have improved Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, but data from diverse Asian populations are limited. This study evaluated plasma p-tau217 and p-tau181 levels in Korean and Taiwanese populations.
Methods: All participants (n = 270) underwent amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) and blood tests.
Impact of Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 Inhibitors on Lipoprotein(a): A Meta-Analysis and Meta-Regression of Randomized Controlled Trials.
JACC Adv
February 2025
Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, USA.
Background: Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] has been independently associated with increased cardiovascular risk.
Objectives: The authors examined the effect of monoclonal antibody proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors (PCSK9is) on plasma Lp(a) levels across multiple trials.
Methods: Studies were retrieved comparing the effect of PCSK9i vs placebo on Lp(a) levels.
