RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Changes in economy and dietary guidelines brought a great shock to diet quality and meal behaviors, but if these transformations have extended to minerals intake and their sources was still poorly understood. It is essential to evaluate time trends in minerals intake and their sources to inform policy makers. OBJECTIVE: To investigate trends in minerals intake and their sources among U.S. adults. METHODS: This analysis used dietary data collected by 24-h recalls from U.S. adults (≥ 20 years) in NHANES (1999-March 2020). Minerals intake, age-adjusted percentage of participants meeting recommendations, and minerals sources were calculated among all participants and by population subgroups in each NHANES survey cycle. Weighted linear or logistic regression models were used to examine the statistical significance of time trends. RESULTS: A total of 48223 U.S. adults were included in this analysis. From 1999 to March 2020, intake of calcium (from 0.94 to 1.02 g/day), magnesium (from 308.07 to 321.85 mg/day), phosphorus (from 1.24 to 1.30 g/day), and sodium (from 3.24 to 3.26 mg/day) from food and beverages (FB) and dietary supplements (DSs) significantly increased, and intake of iron (from 19.17 to 16.38 mg/day), zinc (from 16.45 to 14.19 mg/day), copper (from 1.79 to 1.38 mg/day), and potassium (from 2.65 to 2.50 g/day) from FB + DSs decreased (all FDR < 0.05). Additionally, age-adjusted percentage of participants meeting recommendations for calcium, phosphorus, sodium, and selenium significantly increased, that for iron, potassium, zinc, and copper decreased (all FDR < 0.05). Minerals intake and time trends in minerals intake were highly variable depending on age, gender, race/ethnicity, education, and income. For example, white, higher socioeconomic status participants had a higher minerals intake (e.g. iron, zinc, and copper), but had a greater decrease in minerals intake. Furthermore, the percentage of minerals from milks and DSs decreased, and that from beverages increased. CONCLUSION: From 1999 to March 2020, both minerals intake and their sources experienced a significant alteration among U.S. adults. Many differences in minerals intake and their food sources across sociodemographic characteristics appeared to narrow over time. Although some improvements were observed, important challenges, such as overconsumption of sodium and underconsumption of potassium, calcium, and magnesium, still remained among U.S. adults.

Previous research on sleep and aging largely has failed to illustrate the optimal dose-response curve of this relationship. We aimed to analyze the associations between sleep duration and measures of predicted age. In total, 241,713 participants from the UK Biobank were included. Habitual sleep duration was collected from the baseline questionnaire. Four indicators, homeostatic dysregulation (HD), phenoAge (PA), Klemera-Doubal method (KDM), and allostatic load (AL), were chosen to assess predicted age. Multivariate linear regression models were utilized. The association of sleep duration and predicted age followed a U-shape (All p for nonlinear <0.05). Compared with individuals who sleep for 7 h/day, the multivariable-adjusted beta of ≤5 and ≥9 h/day were 0.05 (95% CI 0.03, 0.07) and 0.03 (95% CI 0.02, 0.05) for HD, 0.08 (95% CI 0.01, 0.14) and 0.36 (95% CI 0.31, 0.41) for PA, and 0.21 (95% CI 0.12, 0.30) and 0.30 (95% CI 0.23, 0.37) for KDM. Significant independent and joint effects of sleep and cystatin C (CysC) and gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT) on predicted age metrics were future found. Similar results were observed when conducting stratification analyses. Short and long sleep duration were associated with accelerated predicted age metrics mediated by CysC and GGT.

BACKGROUND: To explore the relationship between sleep patterns and cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence and mortality risk in a population with type 2 diabetes through a UK Biobank sample. METHODS: A total of 6860 patients with type 2 diabetes were included in this study. Five sleep factors (including Chronotype, sleep duration, insomnia, daytime sleepiness, and snoring) were collected as a questionnaire. The calculation generates a sleep score of 0-5, and then three sleep patterns were defined based on the sleep scores: poor sleep pattern (0-2), Intermediate sleep pattern (3-4), and healthy sleep pattern (5). HRs and 95% confidence intervals were calculated by multivariate COX proportional risk model adjustment. Restricted cubic splines were used to validate linear associations between sleep scores CVD events. RESULTS: Our results found a reduced risk of CVD events in individuals with healthy sleep patterns compared to participants with poor sleep patterns. CVD Mortality (HR, 0.690; 95% CI 0.519-0.916), ASCVD (Atherosclerosis CVD) (HR, 0.784; 95% CI 0.671-0.915), CAD (Coronary Artery Disease) (HR, 0.737; 95% CI 0.618-0.879), PAD (Peripheral Arterial Disease) (HR, 0.612; 95% CI 0.418-0.896), Heart Failure (HR, 0.653; 95% CI 0.488-0.875). Restricted cubic spline responded to a negative linear correlation between sleep scores and CVD Mortality, ASCVD, CAD, PAD, and Heart Failure. CONCLUSIONS: Healthy sleep patterns are significantly associated with a reduced risk of CVD Mortality, ASCVD, CAD, PAD, and Heart Failure in the diabetes population.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: In the American population, the relationship between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and TYG combined with indicators of obesity and cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its mortality has been less well studied. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 11,937 adults from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003-2018. Cox proportional hazards model, binary logistic regression analyses, restricted cubic spline (RCS), and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) were used to analyze the relationship between TyG and its combined obesity-related indicators and CVD and its mortality. Mediation analysis explored the mediating role of glycated hemoglobin and insulin in the above relationships. RESULTS: In this study, except for no significant association between TyG and CVD mortality, TyG, TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR, and TyG-BMI were significantly and positively associated with CVD and CVD mortality. TyG-WHtR is the strongest predictor of CVD mortality (HR 1.66, 95% CI 1.21-2.29). The TyG index correlated better with the risk of coronary heart disease (OR 2.52, 95% CI 1.66-3.83). TyG-WC correlated best with total CVD (OR 2.37, 95% CI 1.77-3.17), congestive heart failure (OR 2.14, 95% CI 1.31-3.51), and angina pectoris (OR 2.38, 95% CI 1.43-3.97). TyG-WHtR correlated best with myocardial infarction (OR 2.24, 95% CI 1.45-3.44). RCS analyses showed that most of the above relationships were linear (P-overall < 0.0001, P-nonlinear > 0.05). Otherwise, ROC curves showed that TyG-WHtR and TyG-WC had more robust diagnostic efficacy than TyG. In mediation analyses, glycated hemoglobin mediated in all the above relationships and insulin-mediated in partial relationships. CONCLUSIONS: TyG-WC and TyG-WtHR enhance CVD mortality prediction, diagnostic efficacy of CVD and its mortality, and correlation with some CVD over and above the current hottest TyG. TyG-WC and TyG-WtHR are expected to become more effective metrics for identifying populations at early risk of cardiovascular disease and improve risk stratification.

BACKGROUND & AIMS: The interaction between diet, inflammation, and oxidative stress significantly influences aging, but the available evidence has been limited. We evaluated potential associations of dietary inflammatory index (DII), dietary oxidative balance score (DOBS), and measures of biological aging. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was performed among 8839 individuals from NHANES 2003-2014. DII and DOBS were determined by aggregating data from 26 to 17 a priori selected dietary components. Biological aging metrics included homeostatic dysregulation (HD), Klemera-Doubal method (KDM), phenotypic age (PA), and allostatic load (AL). Binomial logistic regression models and multivariate linear regression models were conducted. RESULTS: The associations of dietary inflammation and oxidative stress potential and biological aging metrics were significant among American adults nationwide. Consuming foods with higher DII was significantly associated with accelerated HD 1.26 (1.10, 1.44), KDM 1.24 (1.06, 1.45), and PA 1.54 (1.33, 1.78). Compared with the lowest DOBS, the hazard ratios of accelerated HD, KDM, PA, and AL were 0.74 (0.64, 0.86), 0.80 (0.70, 0.92), 0.61 (0.52, 0.72) and 0.78 (0.63, 0.97), respectively. The adverse effects of pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative diets on accelerated HD, KDM, and PA were 1.39 (1.18, 1.62), 1.28 (1.08, 1.51), and 1.76 (1.47, 2.10). Serum AST/ALT ratio and globulin were implicated in and mediate the aging effects. CONCLUSIONS: Higher DII and/or lower DOBS are associated with higher markers of biological aging. Our research elucidates that diets may mitigate biological aging resulting from inflammation and/or oxidative stress.

To clarify the effects of dietary inflammatory and pro-oxidative potential, we investigated the impact of the Dietary Inflammation Index (DII) and the Dietary Oxidative Balance Score (DOBS) on all-cause and disease-specific mortality. For DII and DOBS, 17,550 and 24,527 participants were included. Twenty-six and seventeen dietary factors were selected for scoring. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used. DII and DOBS were significantly associated with all-cause, CVD, and cancer mortality in this nationally representative sample of American adults. Compared with the lowest DII, the multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (95% CI) of all-cause, CVD, and cancer mortality for the highest were 1.49 (1.23-1.80), 1.58 (1.08-2.33), and 1.56 (1.07-2.25). The highest quartile of DOBS was associated with the risk of all-cause death (HR 0.71, 95% CI 0.59-0.86). Pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative diets were associated with increased risk for all-cause (HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.28-1.97), and CVD (HR 2.29, 95% CI 1.33-3.94) death compared to anti-inflammatory and antioxidant diets. Similar results were observed among the stratification analyses. Inflammation-reducing and oxidative-balancing diets are linked to lower all-cause and CVD mortality. Diets impact health by regulating inflammation and oxidative stress.

Histone acetylation is important for gene transcription, which is controlled by the balance between two kinds of opposing enzymes: histone acetyltransferases and histone deacetylases (HDACs). HDACs repress gene transcription by decreasing histone acetylation levels. Our hypothesis was that shuttling of Class II HDACs, such as HDAC4, between the nucleus and cytoplasm is critical for its function. We constructed mutants of mammalian HDAC4 that had different cellular locations and checked their function during memory formation using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model. The deletion of hda4, a homolog of HDAC4, was able to enhance learning and long-term memory (LTM) in a thermotaxis model. Transgenic experiments showed that mammalian wild-type HDAC4 rescued the phenotype of hda4-deleted worms but impaired LTM formation in wild-type worms. The cytosol-localized HDAC4 mutant was not able to alter the phenotype of knock-out worms but led to enhanced LTM formation in wild-type worms similar to hda4-deletion mutants. Constitutive nuclear localization of HDAC4 rescued the phenotype of deletion worms similar to wild-type HDAC4 but had no effect on wild-type worms. These results support our hypothesis that HDAC4's biological function is regulated by its intracellular distribution.

beta-catenin functions as both a structural protein and a transcriptional activator. In this study, we examined the expression of beta-catenin in human cirrhotic livers, and administered adenoviruses carrying the beta-catenin or DeltaTCF4 genes to cirrhotic rats to investigate the role of beta-catenin in the development of liver cirrhosis development. beta-catenin expression was associated with liver cirrhosis development in cirrhotic human and rat liver. beta-catenin adenovirus was capable of accelerating cirrhosis progress but this progression was unaffected by administration of DeltaTCF4 adenovirus. beta-catenin was mainly located in the intercellular regions between liver cells and was highly concentrated in the hepatic sinusoid wall, where alpha-smooth muscle actin (SMA) was also mainly distributed. The binding of beta-catenin to alpha-SMA was also increased in cirrhotic liver. Portal vein blood pressure was significantly increased in the group administered beta-catenin adenovirus, but not in that receiving DeltaTCF4 adenovirus. These results suggest that high concentrations of beta-catenin at the hepatic intercellular membrane and the hepatic sinusoid wall contribute to hepatic hyperpiesia in liver cirrhosis patients. beta-catenin functions as a structural molecule, but not as a signaling molecule, during liver cirrhosis development.
