Background: Peanuts and tree nuts (almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, pecans, pine nuts, pistachios and walnuts) are an important source of unsaturated fatty acids, vegetable protein, and fibre, as well as minerals, vitamins, and phytonutrients. The FDA has permitted health
The stepped-care arm of this study included an obesity medication intervention. At the start of the study, the active medication was sibutramine and was compared to a placebo control. On 10/8/2010, Abbott Laboratories withdrew their obesity drug sibutramine (Meridia) from the market in light of
This study will employ a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design to test a newly developed obesity reduction program, Koa Family, among overweight or obese mothers. An exploratory, uncontrolled study will assess its acceptance among normal-weight mothers.
Koa Family consists of a 6-month
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a collection of at least three out of five cardiometabolic risk factors including abdominal obesity, hypertension, elevated blood glucose, hypertriglyceridemia, and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. MetS is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is
Tree different head and neck positions will compare for glottic visualization and intubation success rates in obese patients (BMI> 30 kg / m2) who required endotracheal intubation for general anesthesia between 18-65 years of age.
The etiology of breast cancer is still poorly understood with known risk factors explaining only a small proportion of cases. Risk factors that modulate the development of breast cancer include: age, geographic location, socioeconomic status, reproductive events, exogenous hormones, lifestyle,
Specific Aim 1: Evaluate the effect of single-use NPWT on SSI rates after C-section, abdominal hysterectomy, and colon procedures in at risk patients.
To address this aim, we will conduct multicenter, stepped-wedge, quasi-experimental trial evaluating use of the PrevenaTM with 125 mm Hg negative
Tree nuts are recommended in the prevention and management of cardiovascular disease (CVD) largely based on their LDL (low density lipoprotein) lowering effects, but the CVD risk reduction observed with tree nut consumption is greater than that predicted by their hypocholesterolemic effects alone.

Diabetes mellitus, considered as a metabolic disorder, mutates into a predominantly vascular disease, once its duration extends over several years and/or when additional cardiovascular risk factors coexists, in particular arterial hypertension. In accordance, patients with type 2 diabetes die
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a combination of risk factors for chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). These risk factors include obesity (particularly abdominal obesity), high blood pressure, elevated triglycerides, low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)
Diabetes mellitus, considered at the beginning as a metabolic disorder, mutates into a predominantly vascular disease, once its duration extends over several years or/and when additional cardiovascular risk factors coexist, in particular arterial hypertension. In accordance, patients with type 2
