ARTICLES Fruit and Vegetable Intake and Risk of Major Chronic Disease

TL;DR: Increased fruit and vegetable consumption was associated with a modest although not statistically significant reduction in the development of major chronic disease and the benefits appeared to be primarily for cardiovascular disease and not for cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nut and Peanut Butter Consumption and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Women

TL;DR: Findings suggest potential benefits of higher nut and peanut butter consumption in lowering risk of type 2 diabetes in women and regular nut consumption can be recommended as a replacement for consumption of refined grain products or red or processed meats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cigarette smoking is associated with subclinical parenchymal lung disease: the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA)-lung study.

TL;DR: Smoking may cause subclinical parenchymal lung disease detectable by spirometric restriction and regions of high attenuation on computed tomography imaging, even among a generally healthy cohort.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations of dietary long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and fish with biomarkers of inflammation and endothelial activation (from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis [MESA]).

TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that the dietary intake of long-chain n-3 PUFAs and fish is inversely associated with concentrations of some biomarkers, reflecting lower levels of inflammation and endothelial activation, which may partially explain the cardioprotective effects of fish consumption.
