1. 6. Diet and postmenopausal breast cancer - With a focus on low-grade inflammation

   Författare :Joana Alves Dias; Nutritionsepidemiologi; []
   Nyckelord :Oxidative stress; low-grade inflammation; Biomarkers of inflammation; cytokines; ICC; variation; diet; dietary recommendations; diet quality index; food patterns; reduced rank regression; obesity; CVD; postmenopausal breast cancer; epidemiology; cross sectional; nested case-control;

   Sammanfattning : Diet-breast cancer studies have shown that “healthy eating patterns” are associated with decreased risk whereas unhealthy patterns (especially those including alcohol) are associated with increased risk, particularly in postmenopausal women. The potential mechanisms behind the observed associations are still under investigation. LÄS MER

3. 7. Weaned Upon A Time : Studies of the Infant Diet in Prehistory

   Författare :Rachel Howcroft; Kerstin Lidén; Gunilla Eriksson; Tamsin O'Connell; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Infant Feeding; Breastfeeding; Weaning; Milk; Diet; Fertility; Neolithic; Agriculture; Hunter-Gatherer; Bronze Age; Iron Age; Prehistory; Carbon and Nitrogen Stable Isotope Ratios; Bone; Dentine; Archaeological Science; laborativ arkeologi;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with how prehistoric infants were fed in different physical and cultural environments, and in particular what impact the economic, social, and epidemiological changes associated with the development of agriculture had on infant feeding practices. In order to examine these effects, stable isotope ratio analysis has been used to assess the duration of breastfeeding and weaning in a variety of prehistoric contexts. LÄS MER

4. 8. Interaction between dietary factors and genetic risk for lipoprotein traits and cardiovascular disease

   Författare :Sophie Hellstrand; Diabetes - kardiovaskulär sjukdom; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diet; polyunsaturated fatty acids; diet quality index; fatty acid desaturase; blood lipids; lipoproteins; polymorphisms; genetic risk score; gene-diet interaction; cohort; epidemiology; cardiovascular disease;

   Sammanfattning : In previous studies, a high quality diet has been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared to a low diet quality, and specific “healthy” diet components, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), have been hypothesized to reduce the risk of CVD. However, results from epidemiological studies have been conflicting. LÄS MER

5. 9. Prehistoric diet transitions : an archaeological perspective

   Författare :Kerstin Lidén; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES;

   Sammanfattning : This is a study of prehistoric diet transitions within the Baltic area during the Stone Age. More specific the changes in diet expected to be found when hunter-gatherer subsistence is changed into a farming subsistence. This transition should be able to detect in the bone material as changes in trace element amounts and changes in stable isotopes. LÄS MER

7. 10. Diet and Sarcopenia : Swedish Cohort Studies in Aging Populations

   Författare :Mikael Karlsson; Liisa Byberg; Wulf Becker; Tommy Cederholm; Ulrika Ericson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Older people; energy expenditure; muscle function; muscle mass; dietary pattern; sarcopenia; Nutrition; Nutrition;

   Sammanfattning : Sarcopenia is a growing public health concern, involving a loss of muscle mass and function, thus resulting in functional impairment. The role of diet in sarcopenia is unknown. LÄS MER
