Previous cross-cultural comparisons of the mortality from ischemic heart disease in European communities with associated plasma levels of essential antioxidants have revealed strong inverse correlations for vitamin E and relatively weak correlations for other antioxidants. Similarly, in a
30 patients with CT proven infarct presenting within 24 hours of the acute event were included in the study with 20 age and sex matched controls. On day 1 and day 15 of stroke, levels of plasma lipid peroxide (oxidant) and plasma alpha-tocopherol and beta carotene (antioxidant) were estimated. The
OBJECTIVE
In the Alpha Tocopherol, Beta Carotene Cancer Prevention Study, alpha tocopherol supplementation decreased risk of cerebral infarction by 14% (95% CI, -25% to -1%), and beta carotene increased risk of intracerebral hemorrhage by 62% (95% CI, 10% to 132%). We report here the 6-year
Stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) have an abnormality in cholesterol synthesis, but the pathological relevance of this to stroke and related neuronal disorders is not yet clear. The induction of astrocyte-derived cholesterol transportation to neurons by apolipoprotein E (apoE)
The relations of dietary antioxidants vitamin C and beta-carotene to 30-year risk of stroke incidence and mortality were investigated prospectively in the Chicago Western Electric Study among 1,843 middle-aged men who remained free of cardiovascular disease through their second examination. Stroke
In a recent prospective observational study, vitamins C and E and beta-carotene did not elicit protective effects on stroke risk. Lutein, however, may elicit such protection. Nevertheless, these nutrients may be important modulators of the outcome after the occurrence of a stroke. At present,
BACKGROUND
High serum or dietary levels of vitamin E and beta carotene appear to be associated with lower risk of stroke, but studies regarding their supplementation have not supported their use in stroke prevention.
OBJECTIVE
To determine if vitamin E (dl-alpha tocopherol) and beta carotene
Observational data suggest that diets rich in fruits and vegetables and with high serum levels of antioxidants are associated with decreased incidence and mortality of stroke. We studied the effects of alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene supplementation. The incidence and mortality of stroke were
BACKGROUND
Consumption of milk and other dairy foods has been associated with reduced risk of stroke, although not all studies have shown this consistently.
METHODS
We examined the association between dairy food intake and risk of stroke subtypes within the Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer
Epidemiologic evidence on the relationship between antioxidant vitamin intake and stroke is limited. We aimed to investigate the association between dietary intake of antioxidant vitamins and the incidence of total stroke and ischemic stroke.
The subjects were 82 044 Japanese men and women aged
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of administration of supraphysiological β carotene on biological, laboratory and histological parameters of spontaneously hypertensive rats prone to stroke (SHR-sp).
METHODS
we used 36 male rats divided into three groups, each containing 12 rats of the types
For the prolongation of life expectancy and reduction of ischemic heart disease (IHD) dietary guidelines generally recommend lowering saturated mammalian fat with partial replacement by vegetable oils and increasing generously vegetables, legumes, and fruits, which provide more essential
BACKGROUND
The importance of dietary modification for disease prevention is widely accepted. The difficulty of implementing and sustaining long-term changes is also well documented. Nevertheless, a few studies have attempted to achieve significant dietary change for extended periods.
METHODS
The
There is accumulating evidence that free radicals may contribute to various diseases such as cancer or cardiovascular disease. Possible health hazards can to some extent be prevented by the body's multilevel defense system against free radicals, which comprises, besides others, antioxidant vitamins.
Nutrition is much more important in prevention of stroke than is appreciated by most physicians. The powerful effects of statin drugs in lowering the levels of fasting cholesterol, combined with an unbalanced focus on fasting lipids (as opposed to postprandial fat and oxidative stress), have led
