Low-Carbohydrate-Diet Score and the Risk of Coronary Heart Disease in Women
Thomas L Halton,Walter C. Willett,Simin Liu,JoAnn E. Manson,Christine M. Albert,Kathryn M. Rexrode,Frank B. Hu +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that diets lower in carbohydrate and higher in protein and fat are not associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease in women and when vegetable sources of fat and protein are chosen, these diets may moderately reduce the risk of heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
A prospective study of egg consumption and risk of cardiovascular disease in men and women.
Frank B. Hu,Meir J. Stampfer,Eric B. Rimm,JoAnn E. Manson,Alberto Ascherio,Graham A. Colditz,Bernard Rosner,Donna Spiegelman,Frank E. Speizer,Frank M. Sacks,Charles H. Hennekens,Walter C. Willett +11 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that consumption of up to 1 egg per day is unlikely to have substantial overall impact on the risk of CHD or stroke among healthy men and women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fruit consumption and risk of type 2 diabetes: results from three prospective longitudinal cohort studies
Isao Muraki,Fumiaki Imamura,JoAnn E. Manson,JoAnn E. Manson,Frank B. Hu,Frank B. Hu,Walter C. Willett,Walter C. Willett,Rob M. van Dam,Rob M. van Dam,Qi Sun,Qi Sun +11 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest the presence of heterogeneity in the associations between individual fruit consumption and risk of type 2 diabetes, whereas greater consumption of fruit juice is associated with a higher risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nut and Peanut Butter Consumption and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Women
TL;DR: Findings suggest potential benefits of higher nut and peanut butter consumption in lowering risk of type 2 diabetes in women and regular nut consumption can be recommended as a replacement for consumption of refined grain products or red or processed meats.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A system of QC/QA for genotypic data in genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) is described, which includes some new approaches that combine analysis of allelic probe intensities and called genotypes to distinguish gender misidentification from sex chromosome aberrations.
