Dietary glycemic index, glycemic load, cereal fiber, and plasma adiponectin concentration in diabetic men.
TL;DR: Diets low in glycemic load and high in fiber may increase plasma adiponectin concentrations in diabetic patients, and high intake of cereal fiber was associated with increased plasma adip onectin levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole-Grain, Cereal Fiber, Bran, and Germ Intake and the Risks of All-Cause and Cardiovascular Disease–Specific Mortality Among Women With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
TL;DR: Whole-grain and bran intakes were associated with reduced all-cause and CVD-specific mortality in women with diabetes mellitus, suggesting a potential benefit of whole-grain intake in reducing mortality and cardiovascular risk in diabetic patients.

TL;DR: Conclusive evidence from cohort studies and trials on risk factors support an etiologic role of SSB in relation to weight gain and risk of T2D and CHD, independent of adiposity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary protein and risk of ischemic heart disease in women
Frank B. Hu,Meir J. Stampfer,JoAnn E. Manson,Eric B. Rimm,Graham A. Colditz,Frank E. Speizer,Charles H. Hennekens,Walter C. Willett +7 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that replacing carbohydrates with protein may be associated with a lower risk of ischemic heart disease, because a high dietary protein intake is often accompanied by increases in saturated fat and cholesterol intakes.

TL;DR: In a meta-analysis adjusted for age, sex, smoking, and eigenvectors of population variation, two loci achieved genome-wide significance: 7p21 (P = 2.4×10−19), near AHR, and 15q24 (P¬5.2× 10−14), between CYP 1A1 and CYP1A2.
