Plant-based diets (PBDs) have emerged as a dietary strategy to mitigate CVD risk, characterized by foods derived from plants and minimal to no animal-derived foods. This integrative review assesses the effectiveness of PBDs for improving CVD risk factors in older adults. A search was conducted in CINAHL, PubMed, and Medline databases for studies of PBDs and CVD risk factors in individuals aged 65 years and older. Quality assessment was performed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). Seventeen publications were analyzed, 7 experimental and 10 non-experimental. All studies showed at least one positive association between PBDs and cardiovascular health in older adults. Findings highlighted significant associations between PBD adherence and reductions in key CVD risk factors, such as low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), blood pressure, and body mass index (BMI), alongside potential benefits in reducing coronary artery calcium and enhancing endothelial function and serum isoflavone concentrations. There is evidence for the potential of PBDs as an effective dietary strategy to prevent the onset and progression of CVD in older adults and reduce the risk of CVD mortality. This review indicates the need for further research. Larger randomized control trials focused on older adults may strengthen the evidence base and guide healthcare recommendations. PBDs should be considered as a part of holistic CVD prevention and management strategies for older adults, encouraging dietary patterns that are rich in fruits, vegetables, legumes, beans, nuts, seeds, and whole grains.","PeriodicalId":93901,"journal":{"name":"Biological research for nursing","volume":" ","pages":"109-126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141857347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, a two-step MR was used to quantify the mediating impact of inflammatory factors on the effect of circulating metabolites on PMOP. Results: The results revealed a significant association between certain metabolites and the risk of PMOP, notably the ratio of free cholesterol to total lipids in very large VLDL particles (OR: 1.399, 95% CI: 1.002-1.954, p = 0.048) and IL-16 (OR: 0.773, 95% CI: 0.608-0.983, p = 0.036).

We studied three areas of adversity (parent relational instability, child household instability, and financial instability) occurring during three epochs across childhood and adolescence and their associations with telomere length during adolescence. Methods: Data were obtained from the first wave of a longitudinal cohort study of youth aged 11-17 and their primary caregiver. Caregivers completed demographic and adversity questionnaires; youth provided a saliva sample for DNA extraction for telomere analysis. Results: Of 879 youth, over half experienced some adversity. More than one third experienced parent relational instability in each age epoch, with nearly a quarter experiencing parent relational instability in all age epochs. Youth experienced a similar pattern of financial instability but lower rates of child household instability. Youth experiencing parent relational instability at two or three epochs had shorter telomeres compared to those without any parent relational instability (p < .004). Youth who experienced child household instability in two age epochs had shorter telomeres (p = .003) and youth who experienced financial instability across all three epochs had shorter telomeres (p = .013) compared to youth without these adversities. Conclusion: Continuing exposure to adversity in early childhood may be more likely to affect telomere length. Research is needed to further determine adversities exerting the most effect and to understand if early telomere shortening has long term health effects.","PeriodicalId":93901,"journal":{"name":"Biological research for nursing","volume":" ","pages":"10998004241309368"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142848489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the exact mechanisms remain unclear, obesity is suspected to influence the development of chronic injuries via inflammatory biomarkers. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may further influence gene expression, protein function, and levels of inflammatory biomarkers through various mechanisms, thereby modulating inflammatory responses that contribute to wound pathogenesis. Methods: A two-sample two-step Mendelian Randomization (MR) was employed to explore the causal relationship between obesity and chronic wounds, focusing on the mediating role of inflammatory biomarkers. SNPs were used as instrumental variables (IVs) to infer causality. Obesity-related genetic data were sourced from the UK Biobank and GIANT consortium. Genome-wide association studies provided data on 92 inflammatory biomarkers, involving 14,824 and 575,531 individuals. Pressure injuries, lower limb venous ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcer data were obtained from FinnGen R10 and the Pan-UK Biobank. Results: Obesity significantly increased the risk of pressure injuries, lower limb venous ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcers.

This study aimed to evaluate the determinants of delayed lactogenesis II (DOL II) in high-risk pregnant women to guide clinical interventions and postnatal care protocols. Methods: We conducted a study involving high-risk pregnant women who gave birth and were admitted to our hospital''s obstetric intensive care unit for postpartum surveillance and treatment from February 1, 2023, to April 30, 2024. We utilized Pearson correlation analysis and logistic regression to determine factors linked to DOL II. Results: Our study included 206 high-risk pregnant women, with 85 (41.26%) experiencing DOL II. Pearson correlation analysis indicated strong associations between DOL II and maternal age (r = 0.452), gestational hypertension (r = 0.514), gestational diabetes (r = 0.487), and delayed colostrum secretion (r = 0.506), all statistically significant (p < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis identified age 35 years or older (OR = 2.115, 95%CI: 1.785-2.466), gestational hypertension (OR = 2.404, 95%CI: 2.125-3.107), gestational diabetes (OR = 2.556, 95%CI: 2.008-2.879), and colostrum secretion later than one hour postpartum (OR = 3.126, 95%CI: 2.682-3.605) as independent risk factors for DOL II, all with p < 0.05. Conclusions: The incidence of DOL II is significantly elevated in high-risk pregnant women, especially those aged 35 or older, those with gestational diabetes and hypertension, and those who delay the initiation of breastfeeding. It is imperative that clinical practices prioritize enhanced prenatal care and health education, robust lactation support, and improved lactation awareness among postpartum women to reduce the prevalence of DOL II.","PeriodicalId":93901,"journal":{"name":"Biological research for nursing","volume":" ","pages":"10998004241300477"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142634424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Utilizing the Korean Genome Epidemiology Study (KoGES) prospective cohort data, our primary exposure variables were serum calcium level and sex. The incidence of ACS served as the main outcome of interest. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using Cox regression analysis. An interaction analysis was conducted to assess the interaction effect of calcium level and sex on ACS incidence. Results: After adjusting for confounding variables, high calcium intake did not significantly increase ACS incidence, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.07 (95% CI: 0.90-1.26). There was also no significant difference in ACS risk between females and males (HR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.61-1.04).

This study evaluated the effects of a breathing exercise based on motor development patterns on functional fitness and quality of life in overweight older adult women. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 40 community-dwelling women aged 65-75. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group, which completed a 6-week breathing exercise program (three supervised and three home-based sessions per week), or a control group, which maintained usual routines. Outcome measures included cardiovascular fitness, upper and lower body flexibility, muscle strength, dynamic balance, and quality of life, assessed at baseline and post-intervention. Results: The intervention group showed significant improvements in cardiovascular fitness (p < .001, ES = 0.652), upper body flexibility (p < .001, ES = 0.652), lower body flexibility (p < .001, ES = 0.538), upper body strength (p < .001, ES = 0.538), lower body strength (p < .001, ES = 0.538), and dynamic balance (p < .001, ES = 0.475) compared to the control group.
