Journal ArticleDOI
Total antioxidant and ascorbic acid content of fresh fruits and vegetables: implications for dietary planning and food preservation.
TL;DR: Results indicate that the antioxidant capacity of vegetables decreases rapidly and significantly after fragmentation, and using FRASC as a biomonitoring tool will be useful in food production, preparation, preservation, and aid dietary choices to increase antioxidant and AA intake.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypertension and stroke in Asia: prevalence, control and strategies in developing countries for prevention.
Ram Singh,I. L. Suh,V. P. Singh,S. Chaithiraphan,P. Laothavorn,R. G. Sy,N. A. Babilonia,A. R. A. Rahman,Soheyl Sheikh,Brian Tomlinson,N. Sarraf-Zadigan +10 more
TL;DR: Population-based long-term follow-up studies are urgently needed to demonstrate the association of risk factors with hypertension in Asia, and prevention programmes should be started based on cross-sectional surveys and case studies without waiting for the cohort studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
OCT2 polymorphisms and in-vivo renal functional consequence: studies with metformin and cimetidine.
TL;DR: The study results demonstrated for the first time the existence of genetic polymorphisms of OCT2 in the Chinese population, and showed that the 808G>T polymorphism is associated with a reduced metformin renal or tubular clearance.

Factor analysis of the metabolic syndrome: obesity vs insulin resistance as the central abnormality.
P. J. Anderson,J A Critchley,Juliana C.N. Chan,C. S. Cockram,Zoe S.K. Lee,G. N. Thomas,Brian Tomlinson +6 more
TL;DR: These models suggest that the clustering of variables in MES is a result of multiple factors linked by adiposity and not a single aetiology, and increases in blood pressure are related to obesity in these Chinese subjects rather than decreased IS per se.
