Deirdre K Tobias,An Pan,Chandra L. Jackson,Éilis J. O'Reilly,Eric L. Ding,Walter C. Willett,JoAnn E. Manson,Frank B. Hu +7 more

Journal ArticleDOI
Glycemic index, glycemic load, and risk of type 2 diabetes: results from 3 large US cohorts and an updated meta-analysis
Shilpa N Bhupathiraju,Deirdre K Tobias,Vasanti S. Malik,An Pan,Adela Hruby,JoAnn E. Manson,Walter C. Willett,Frank B. Hu +7 more

Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of low-fat diet interventions versus other diet interventions on long-term weight change in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Deirdre K Tobias,Deirdre K Tobias,Mu Chen,JoAnn E. Manson,JoAnn E. Manson,David S. Ludwig,David S. Ludwig,Walter C. Willett,Walter C. Willett,Frank B. Hu,Frank B. Hu +10 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the long-term effect of low-fat diets on body weight depends on the intensity of intervention in the comparison group, and when compared to dietary interventions of similar intensity, evidence from RCTs does not support low- fat diets over other dietary interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Qi Sun,Marilyn C. Cornelis,Mary K. Townsend,Deirdre K Tobias,A. Heather Eliassen,Adrian A. Franke,Russ Hauser,Frank B. Hu +7 more
