Journal ArticleDOI

A randomized trial comparing the effect of casein with that of soy protein containing varying amounts of isoflavones on plasma concentrations of lipids and lipoproteins

TL;DR: Naturally occurring isoflavones isolated with soy protein reduce the plasma concentrations of total and LDL cholesterol without affecting concentrations of triglycerides or high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in mildly hypercholesterolemic volunteers consuming a National Cholesterol Education Program Step I diet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of Coronary Artery Calcium in Adults Aged 32 to 46 Years With Incident Coronary Heart Disease and Death.

TL;DR: The presence of CAC among individuals aged between 32 and 46 years was associated with increased risk of fatal and nonfatal CHD during 12.5 years of follow-up and Selective use of screening for CAC might be considered in individuals with risk factors in early adulthood to inform discussions about primary prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carotid intimal-media thickness as a surrogate for cardiovascular disease events in trials of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors

TL;DR: Results from a meta-analysis and post-trial follow-up from a single published study suggest that IMT meets established statistical criteria by accounting for intervention effects in regression models, but do not establish that it may serve universally as a surrogate marker in trials of other agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contribution of visceral fat mass to the insulin resistance of aging.

TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to explore the association of IAF with age and insulin sensitivity (SI) after controlling for obesity and quantified total and subcutaneous abdominal fat and IAF at the umbilicus using a validated MRI scanning technique.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between duration of overall and abdominal obesity beginning in young adulthood and coronary artery calcification in middle age.

TL;DR: The duration of overall and abdominal obesity was associated with subclinical coronary heart disease and its progression through midlife independent of the degree of adiposity, and preventing or at least delaying the onset of obesity in young adulthood may lower the risk of developing atherosclerosis through middle age.
