Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of oral iron supplementation on cognition in older children and adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Martin Falkingham,Asmaa Abdelhamid,Peter J. Curtis,Susan J. Fairweather-Tait,Louise Dye,Lee Hooper +5 more
TL;DR: There was some evidence that iron supplementation improved attention, concentration and IQ, but this requires confirmation with well-powered, blinded, independently funded RCTs of at least one year's duration in different age groups including children, adolescents, adults and older people, and across all levels of baseline iron status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic Ingestion of Flavan-3-ols and Isoflavones Improves Insulin Sensitivity and Lipoprotein Status and Attenuates Estimated 10-Year CVD Risk in Medicated Postmenopausal Women With Type 2 Diabetes A 1-year, double-blind, randomized, controlled trial
TL;DR: One-year intervention with flavan-3-ols and isoflavones improved biomarkers of CVD risk, highlighting the additional benefit of flavonoids to standard drug therapy in managing CVDrisk in postmenopausal type 2 diabetic patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of sex and genotype on cardiovascular biomarker response to fish oils: the FINGEN Study
Muriel J. Caslake,Elizabeth A. Miles,Bettina M. Kofler,Georg Lietz,Peter J. Curtis,Christopher K. Armah,Alan Kimber,Jilly P Grew,Lesley Farrell,Julie Stannard,Frances L. Napper,Aleix Sala-Vila,Annette L. West,John C. Mathers,Chris J. Packard,Christine M. Williams,Philip C. Calder,Anne Marie Minihane +17 more
TL;DR: The results of the current trial, which used a prospective recruitment approach to examine the responses in population subgroups, are indicative of a greater triacylglycerol-lowering action of long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in males than in females.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular Disease Risk Biomarkers and Liver and Kidney Function Are Not Altered in Postmenopausal Women after Ingesting an Elderberry Extract Rich in Anthocyanins for 12 Weeks
Peter J. Curtis,Paul A. Kroon,Wendy J Hollands,Rebecca Walls,Gail Jenkins,Colin D. Kay,Aedin Cassidy +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that chronic consumption of 500 mg/d of elderberry extract for 12 wk is apparently safe, but ineffective in altering biomarkers of CVD risk in healthy postmenopausal women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Blueberries improve biomarkers of cardiometabolic function in participants with metabolic syndrome—results from a 6-month, double-blind, randomized controlled trial
Peter J. Curtis,Vera van der Velpen,Lindsey Berends,Amy Jennings,Martin Feelisch,A. Margot Umpleby,Mark L. Evans,Bernadette O. Fernandez,Mia S. Meiss,Magdalena Minnion,John F. Potter,Anne Marie Minihane,Colin D. Kay,Eric B. Rimm,Aedin Cassidy +14 more
TL;DR: Despite insulin resistance remaining unchanged, blueberries should be included in dietary strategies to reduce individual and population CVD risk, and first sustained improvements in vascular function, lipid status, and underlying NO bioactivity following 1 cup blueberries/d are shown.
