TL;DR: The results suggest that gut microbiota may differ between men and women, and that these differences may be influenced by the grade of obesity, as a function of gender and changes in body mass index.

TL;DR: In vitro, it is demonstrated that the MUFA oleic acid can impede ATP-induced IL-1β secretion from lipopolysaccharide- and SFA-primed cells in an AMPK-dependent manner and suggest that dietary MUFA can attenuate IL- 1β–mediated insulin resistance and adipose dysfunction despite obesity via the preservation of AMPK activity.

TL;DR: It is suggested that long-term consumption of the Med and LFHCC diets exerts a protective effect on the development of type 2 diabetes by different specific changes in the gut microbiota, increasing the abundance of the Roseburia genus and F. prausnitzii, respectively.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the Mediterranean diet could be a useful tool to restore potentially beneficial members of the gut microbiota, although the stability of these changes over time still remains to be assessed.

TL;DR: The Coronary Diet Intervention with Olive oil and cardiovascular PREVention study (CORDIOPREV study, clinical trials number NCT00924937) is to compare the ability of a Mediterranean diet rich in virgin olive oil versus a low-fat diet to influence the composite incidence of cardiovascular events after 7 years in subjects with documented coronary heart disease at baseline.
