OBJECTIVE
Acute ischemic stroke is a clinical condition accompanied by inflammation and oxidative stress. In this study, we compared levels of plasma lipophilic antioxidants and inflammation markers between patients with stroke and healthy controls and assessed the associations of antioxidants,
Acute ischemic stroke is a leading cause of death and severe disability in industrialised countries and also in many developing countries. An excessive amount of free radicals is generated during cerebral ischemia, which significantly contributes to brain damage. Therefore, an increasing interest
OBJECTIVE
Intake of fruits and vegetables has been related to lower risk of ischemic stroke, but nutrients responsible for this apparent benefit remain ill-defined. Tocopherols (vitamin E) have also been proposed to be protective.
METHODS
We conducted a prospective, nested case-control analysis
BACKGROUND
There is limited evidence regarding the relationship between serum tocopherol levels and cardiovascular disease.
METHODS
We conducted a nested case-control study as part of the Japan Collaborative Cohort Study for evaluation of cancer risk (JACC Study). Baseline serum samples were
OBJECTIVE
To study the association between cognitive status and plasma concentrations of various antioxidants in middle-aged and older individuals without neuropsychiatric disease.
METHODS
Evaluation of cross-sectional data from a cohort study.
METHODS

OBJECTIVE
To examine the association between plasma concentrations of antioxidative micronutrients and leukocyte telomere length (LTL) in elderly adults.
METHODS
Cross-sectional cohort study.
METHODS
Austrian Stroke Prevention Study, a population-based cohort study on brain
BACKGROUND
Scientific studies on cardiovascular disease (CVD) burden and risk factors are predominantly based on short-term risk in Westerner populations, and such information may not be applicable to Asian populations, especially over the longer term. This review aims to estimate the long-term (>10
Vitamin E (alpha-and gamma-tocopherol) may slow the progression of a number of major degenerative diseases of the nervous system that appear to be significantly worsened by oxidative stress. The effects of vitamin E on excitoxicity in cultured neurones is considered, together with ataxia due to
Compared to tocopherols, tocotrienols are poorly understood. The postabsorptive fate of tocotrienol isomers and their association with lipoprotein subfractions was examined. Normocholesterolemic women were subjected to an oral fat challenge supplemented with vitamin E (capsule containing 77 mg
