We retrospectively assessed a single-institution, prospective study that was registered at Clinical Research Information Service (CRiS) of Republic of Korea (KCT0003586). Sixty-six female participants (median age: 44 years) with focal uterine adenomyosis were prospectively enrolled...

The objective of the present study was to describe the dietary inflammatory profile and its correlations with sleep parameters of obese individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Forty individuals underwent nocturnal polysomnography, anthropometric measurements, body composition by plethysmography, assessment of food consumption by three-day food records, and blood collection for the lipid, glycemic and hormonal profile. Food consumption data were evaluated semiquantitatively, quantitalively assessment, and calculation of the dietary inflammatory index (DII) was perfomed...

The inflammatory potential of the diet, as measured by the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII® ), has been repeatedly shown to be associated with various inflammatory markers and mental and physical health outcomes. Of specific importance, several cross-sectional studies revealed mixed results regarding the correlations between the DII and sleep outcomes. Hence, in the current paper, a systematic review that examines the associations between the DII, sleep duration, and sleep quality was performed. The PubMed database was systematically searched for studies published up to November 2023 following PRISMA guidelines...

PURPOSE: To determine whether the number of functional teeth, including the remaining natural teeth and prosthetically restored missing teeth, is associated with the dietary inflammatory index (DII), a quantitative measure of the inflammatory potential of the overall diet, in middle-aged and older Japanese adults. METHODS: National survey data from a non-institutionalized Japanese population aged ≥45 years was analyzed. Multivariable linear regression analyses were performed to assess the association between the DII score, which was calculated based on dietary records, and the number of functional teeth, which was determined during dental examination...

BACKGROUND: The relationship between inflammatory dietary patterns and the risk of depression/anxiety has not been clearly established due to differences in study populations, geographic regions, sex, and methods of calculating the inflammatory index. METHODS: We drew upon a prospective cohort in the UK Biobank and calculated the energy-adjusted dietary inflammatory index (E-DII). The follow-up time was defined from the date of completing the last dietary survey questionnaire to the date of diagnosis of depression, anxiety, phobic anxiety, other types of anxiety, death, loss to follow-up, or the respective censoring dates for England (September 30, 2021), Scotland (July 31, 2021), and Wales (February 28, 2018)...

Adults aged 18-59 years were randomly selected using multi-stage stratified random sampling in coastal urban area (CUA), non-coastal urban area (Non-CUA), coastal rural area (CRA), and non-coastal rural area (Non-CRA) of Fujian Province, China...

BACKGROUND: Geographic distribution of dietary inflammatory index (DII) in China has not been thoroughly evaluated and evidence on the association between DII and hypertension among Chinese middle-aged and older population was inadequate. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the geographic disparities of DII and its association with hypertension among Chinese middle-aged and elders. METHODS: Data was from the China Adults Chronic Diseases and Nutrition Surveillance (CACDNS 2015) for middle-aged and older participants...

The dietary inflammatory index (DII) is a measure of the inflammatory potential of the diet and is closely associated with insulin resistance (IR) and stroke. And IR may play an important role in the development of stroke. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the relationship between DII and stroke risk while delving into the potential role of IR in this association. We analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005 to 2018, performing weighted univariate analyses, logistic regression, and mediation analyses...

A hydrodynamic-based microfluidic chip consisted of two function units that could not only separate tumor cells (TCs) from whole blood but also remove residual blood cells was designed. The separation of TCs was achieved by a straight contraction-expansion array (CEA) microchannel on the front end of the chip. The addition of contractive structure brought a micro-vortex like Dean vortex that promoted cell focusing in the channel, while when cells entered the dilated region, the wall-induced lift force generated by the channel wall gave cells a push away from the wall...

Diet-related inflammation, which can be evaluated using the dietary inflammatory index (DII), is increasingly related to female infertility. However, studies on the association between DII and infertility are limited. In this study, we aim to explore the association between DII and infertility and its dose-effect relationship among women aged 20 to 45 years through a cross-sectional analysis of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2018. A total of 2613 women aged 20 to 45 years were included and analyzed...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Previous studies have demonstrated associations between the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII®), an analytical tool which evaluates the inflammatory potential of the diet according to the pro- and anti-inflammatory properties of its components, and renal stone formation. However, these have not comprehensively addressed important parameters such as stone type, gender, DII scores in stone formers (SFs) and healthy controls (Cs) and associations of DII with urine and blood chemistries...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Although there is extensive literature showing the ability of the dietary inflammation index (DII®) to predict concentrations of plasma inflammatory markers, few studies are testing the association between DII scores and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Considering the high prevalence of NAFLD and its complications, we conducted a validation study of DII scores and examined its association with NAFLD in the general adult population of Iran. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 3110 adult participants in the Amol Cohort Study (AmolCS) who underwent abdominal ultrasonography to diagnose NAFLD...

BACKGROUND: Elevated plasma growth and differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) and poor diet quality may be associated with increased frailty incidence, though their interactive associations have not been assessed in urban middle-aged adults. OBJECTIVE: We aimed at examining GDF15 and its interactive association with diet quality in relation to frailty incidence among a sample of middle-aged urban adults. METHODS: A longitudinal study of participants in the Healthy Aging in Neighborhoods of Diversity across the Life Span (HANDLS) examined the relationship between GDF15 and diet quality trajectories in relation to incident frailty (2004-2017)...

Participants completed an extensive food frequency questionnaire and provided anthropometric and sociodemographic data...

In pregnant women, the Energy-adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index (E-DII) is adopted to measure the inflammatory potential of the diet, but it does not predict the quality of the diet. Our hypothesis is that a more pro-inflammatory diet during pregnancy is also a poorer quality diet. Thus, the objective of this study is to verify the association of the E-DII with the Diet Quality Index Adapted for Pregnancy (DQI-P) and the nutrient intake from the diet in terms of the second and third gestational trimesters...
