Association of Mediterranean diet with peripheral artery disease: the PREDIMED randomized trial.

2014

Association of Mediterranean Diet With Peripheral Artery Disease: The PREDIMED Randomized Trial The role of nutrition in preventing peripheral artery disease (PAD) remains elusive. 1 Mediterranean diets reduce the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. 2,3. They also may reduce the risk of PAD, but this hypothesis has never been tested in a randomized trial. We assessed the association of Mediterranean diets with the occurrence of symptomatic PAD in an exploratory, nonprespecified analysis of a randomized trial...

A framework to analyse gender bias in epidemiological research

2007

The design and analysis of research may cause systematic gender dependent errors to be produced in results because of gender insensitivity or androcentrism. Gender bias in research could be defined as a systematically erroneous gender dependent approach related to social construct, which incorrectly regards women and men as similar/different. Most gender bias can be found in the context of discovery (development of hypotheses), but it has also been found in the context of justification (methodological process), which must be improved. In fact, one of the main effects of gender bias in research is partial or incorrect knowledge in the results, which are systematically different from the real…

Drug use, family support and related factors in university students. A cross-sectional study based on the uniHcos Project data

2019

Objective: To assess the prevalence of illegal drug use in college students on any previous occasion, during the previous year and the previous month, and to analyze the relationship between illegal drug use and family support and other factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study using data from students participating in the uniHcos project (n = 3767) was conducted. The prevalence and age of onset of consumption of cannabis, non-prescription sedatives, stimulants and depressants was evaluated. Polyconsumption was also assessed. The independent variables were: family support, age, residence, and employment status. To determine the factors related to drug use multivariate logistic regression mo…

Associations of the MCM6-rs3754686 proxy for milk intake in Mediterranean and American populations with cardiovascular biomarkers, disease and mortal…

2016

Controversy persists on the association between dairy products, especially milk, and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Genetic proxies may improve dairy intake estimations, and clarify diet-disease relationships through Mendelian randomization. We meta-analytically (n T (nonpersistence>persistence), dairy intake, and CVD biomarkers in American (Hispanics, African-American and Whites) and Mediterranean populations. Moreover, we analyzed longitudinal associations with milk, CVD and mortality in PREDIMED), a randomized Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) intervention trial (n = 7185). The MCM6-rs3754686/MCM6-rs309180 (as proxy), LP-allele (T) was strongly associated with higher milk intake, but inconsis…

Isotemporal substitution of inactive time with physical activity and time in bed: cross-sectional associations with cardiometabolic health in the PRE…

2019

Background: This study explored the association between inactive time and measures of adiposity, clinical parameters, obesity, type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome components. It further examined the impact of reallocating inactive time to time in bed, light physical activity (LPA) or moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) on cardio-metabolic risk factors, including measures of adiposity and body composition, biochemical parameters and blood pressure in older adults. Methods: This is a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from 2189 Caucasian men and women (age 55-75 years, BMI 27-40 Kg/m(2)) from the PREDIMED-Plus study (http://www.predimedplus.com/). All participants had >= 3…

Evaluación de competencias en redacción científica tras dos modalidades diferentes de cursos de formación: protocolo del Estudio SCRIU-B

2021

La redacción de artículos científicos es una de las competencias necesarias y solicitadas por los profesionales de la salud. Existen distintos formatos de cursos para adquirirlas, pero no siempre se evalúa objetivamente su impacto. Con un diseño experimental abierto y no aleatorizado, el estudio SCRIU-B pretende evaluar la adquisición de competencias en redacción científica tras la realización de cursos de formación específicos (presenciales y en línea), así como la satisfacción de los participantes. Se incluye un grupo control con alumnado de otras actividades formativas no relacionadas con la escritura científica. Mediante distintos cuestionarios de evaluación de conocimientos, actitudes …

Interacción genético-ambiental en la modulación de adipocitoquinas y marcadores de inflamación en su asociación con obesidad y otros factores de ries…

2011

La obesidad es una enfermedad metabólica resultado del desequilibrio entre el consumo y el gasto energético, con el consecuente aumento de la cantidad de grasa corporal. Este aumento de grasa corporal produce un desequilibrio en la secreción de adipocitoquinas y marcadores de inflamación relacionado con diversas complicaciones clínicas asociadas con la obesidad y otros factores de riesgo cardiovascular. Las investigaciones de las últimas décadas han permitido un notable aumento en la compresión de los mecanismos moleculares que regulan la homeostasis de la energía, poniendo de manifiesto la importancia de los factores ambientales en la modulación de las reservas energéticas. Además, la vari…
