Journal ArticleDOI

Coffee consumption and risk of colorectal cancer: a meta-analysis of observational studies

TL;DR: Results from case–control studies suggest coffee consumption can significantly decrease the risks of colorectal cancer and colon cancer, especially in Europe and for females.
Journal ArticleDOI

An amperometric biosensor based on hemoglobin immobilized in poly(epsilon-caprolactone) film and its application.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the hemoglobin entrapped in PCL film could retain its original conformation by FT-IR spectra and the Hb-PCL film modified electrode was shown to be an excellent amperometric sensor for the detection of hydrogen peroxide.
Journal ArticleDOI

(+/-)Equol inhibits invasion in prostate cancer DU145 cells possibly via down-regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-9, matrix metalloproteinase-2 and urokinase-type plasminogen activator by antioxidant activity

TL;DR: The data indicate that (±)equol, daidzein and genistein may have significant anti-invasion effect in DU145 cells (in vitro), which may relate to its anti-oxidant effect mediated by phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome ten.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between spicy food consumption and lipid profiles in adults: a nationwide population-based study.

TL;DR: Spicy food consumption was inverselyassociated with serum cholesterol and positively associated with serum TAG, and additional studies are needed to confirm the findings as well as to elucidate the potential roles of spicy food consumption in lipid metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compositional and functional differences in human gut microbiome with respect to equol production and its association with blood lipid level: a cross-sectional study

TL;DR: It was found that equol production was significantly associated with the prevalence of dyslipidemia, including a marginal increase in serum lipids, which suggests the important role that Equol might play in lipid metabolism by gut microbiota.
