Vitamin Status and Intake as Primary Determinants of Homocysteinemia in an Elderly Population
TL;DR: A strong association between homocysteine concentration and folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6 status, as well as age is indicated, suggesting that a substantial majority of the cases of high homocy steine in this older population can be attributed to vitamin status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relations of vitamin B-12, vitamin B-6, folate, and homocysteine to cognitive performance in the Normative Aging Study.
TL;DR: The results suggest that vitamins (and homocysteine) may have differential effects on cognitive abilities and individual vitamins and homocy steine should be explored further as determinants of patterns of cognitive impairment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Timothy E. McAlindon,David T. Felson,Yuqing Zhang,Marian T. Hannan,Piran Aliabadi,Barbara N. Weissman,David Rush,Peter W.F. Wilson,Paul F. Jacques +8 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that the relative deficiency of vitamin D, as determined by dietary intake and serum levels, predisposes patients to progression of osteoarthritis of the knee is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrition and maternal mortality in the developing world
TL;DR: This review relates nutritional status to pregnancy-related death in the developing world, where maternal mortality rates are typically >/=100-fold higher than rates in the industrialized countries, and urgent need to reassess how to approach anemia control in pregnant women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do antioxidant micronutrients protect against the development and progression of knee osteoarthritis
Timothy E. McAlindon,Paul F. Jacques,Yuqing Zhang,Marian T. Hannan,Piran Aliabadi,Barbara N. Weissman,David Rush,Daniel Levy,David T. Felson +8 more
TL;DR: High intake of antioxidant micronutrients, especially vitamin C, may reduce the risk of cartilage loss and disease progression in people with OA, and no effect of antioxidant nutrients on incident OA is found.
