Journal ArticleDOI
Emerging Health Benefits from Cocoa and Chocolate
Sandra M. Hannum,John W. Erdman +1 more
TL;DR: Osakabe et al. as mentioned in this paper showed that the way in which the cacao beans are processed greatly influences the composition of the final products and that fermentation and treatment with alkali both reduce the flavonoid content of the resulting final product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inter-sonographer reproducibility of quantitative ultrasound outcomes and shear wave speed measured in the right lobe of the liver in adults with known or suspected non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Aiguo Han,Yassin Labyed,Ethan Z. Sy,Andrew S. Boehringer,Michael P. Andre,John W. Erdman,Rohit Loomba,Claude B. Sirlin,William D. O'Brien +8 more
TL;DR: Hepatic AC, BSC and SWS measurements are reproducible in adults with known or suspected NAFLD and inter-sonographer reproducibility of SWS measurement improves with more acquisitions being averaged.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma Antioxidants, Genetic Variation in SOD2, CAT, GPX1, GPX4, and Prostate Cancer Survival
Erin L. Van Blarigan,Jing Ma,Stacey A. Kenfield,Meir J. Stampfer,Howard D. Sesso,Edward Giovannucci,John S. Witte,John W. Erdman,June M. Chan,Kathryn L. Penney +9 more
TL;DR: Among men with nonmetastatic prostate cancer, higher circulating prediagnostic α-tocopherol levels and variants in GPX4 may be associated with lower risk of developing lethal disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Dietary Retinyl Acetate, β-Carotene and Retinoic Acid on Wound Healing in Rats
Leonard E. Gerber,John W. Erdman +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that supplemental retinyl acetate, beta-carotene, or in some cases all-trans-retinoic acid can be effective in enhancing wound strength, 5 days, but not 14 days after surgery, of young male rats with marginal vitamin A status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ferrets (Mustela putoius furo) Inefficiently Convert β-Carotene to Vitamin A
Janine D. Lederman,Katrina M. Overton,Nicolle E. Hofmann,Billy J. Moore,Jesse Thornton,John W. Erdman +5 more
TL;DR: The ferret model can be most appropriately used when studying the biological effect of tissue betaC stores on VA status and is less appropriate for the evaluation of dietary betaC conversion to VA.
