PCSK7 genotype modifies effect of a weight-loss diet on 2-year changes of insulin resistance: The pounds lost trial
Tao Huang,Jinyan Huang,Qibin Qi,Yanping Li,Yanping Li,George A. Bray,Jennifer C. Rood,Frank M. Sacks,Lu Qi,Lu Qi +9 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that PCSK7 genotypes may interact with dietary CHO intake on changes in insulin sensitivity in the white Americans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short report : the effect of fish oil on blood pressure and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels in phase I of the trials of hypertension prevention
Frank M. Sacks,Patricia R. Hebert,L. J. Appel,N O Borhani,William B. Applegate,Jerome D. Cohen,Jeffrey A. Cutler,K A Kirchner,L H Kuller,K J Roth +9 more
TL;DR: Moderate amounts of fish oil (6 g/day) are unlikely to lower blood pressure in normotensive persons, but may increase HDL2-cholesterol, particularly in women, especially in women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting successful long-term weight loss from short-term weight-loss outcomes: new insights from a dynamic energy balance model (the POUNDS Lost study)
Diana M. Thomas,Andrada E Ivanescu,Corby K. Martin,Steven B. Heymsfield,Kaitlyn Marshall,Victoria E Bodrato,Donald A. Williamson,Stephen D. Anton,Frank M. Sacks,Donna H. Ryan,George A. Bray +10 more
TL;DR: The newly derived models provide a personalized prediction of long-term success from early weight-loss variables that improve on existing fixed percent-weight-loss thresholds and are needed to explore model application for informing treatment approaches during early intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
New insights into the effects on blood pressure of diets low in salt and high in fruits and vegetables and low-fat dairy products.
TL;DR: Results indicated lower blood pressure with lower sodium intake for both diet groups, and these findings provide important new evidence for the value of the DASH diet and sodium reduction in controlling blood pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple apolipoprotein kinetics measured in human HDL by high resolution/accurate mass parallel reaction monitoring
Sasha A Singh,Allison B. Andraski,Brett Pieper,Wilson Wen Bin Goh,Carlos O. Mendivil,Frank M. Sacks,Frank M. Sacks,Masanori Aikawa +7 more
TL;DR: This work exploited the versatility of the high-resolution/accurate mass (HR/AM) quadrupole Orbitrap for proteomic analysis of five HDL sizes to demonstrate the analytical breadth and scope of the HR/AM-PRM technology to perform metabolic research.
