diet as a part of lifestyle plays a pivotal role in the development of metabolic syndrome and its consequences. fatty acid composition as a part of dietary intake affects blood fatty acid concentrations, insulin sensitivity and different metabolic pathways associated with the occurrence and consequences of the metabolic syndrome. the aim of this review is to evaluate the effects of dietary fatt...

BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a cluster of metabolic abnormalities, which has been regarded as a pivotal risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Recent studies focusing on the relationship between MS and cancer have recognized the significant role of MS on carcinogenesis. Likewise, growing evidence suggests that MS has a strong association with increased renal cell carcinoma (RCC) risk...

Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a cluster of metabolic disorders that collectively increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Nitric oxide (NO) plays a crucial role in the pathogeneses of MS components and is involved in different mitochondrial signaling pathways that control respiration and apoptosis. The present review summarizes the recent information regarding the interrelations of mitochondri...

BACKGROUND Metabolic abnormalities contribute enormously to morbidity and mortality in schizophrenia. OBJECTIVES Our objectives were to determine the (i) prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS); and (ii) predictors for MS in schizophrenia patients from Assam. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-five schizophrenia patients were evaluated for MS. Risk factors were assessed by odds ratios (ORs) with 9...

OBJECTIVE Elevated transaminases have been found to be associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) in many populations but little is known in Asians. The present study aimed to investigate the association between elevated hepatic enzymes in Thai patients diagnosed with MS. MATERIAL AND METHOD A cross-sectional study on 2,585 Thais was conducted. Blood pressure, waist circumference, fasting plasma...

BACKGROUND Stress places a metabolic burden on homeostasis and is linked to heightened sympathetic activity, increased energy expenditure and pathology. The yogic state is a hypometabolic state that corresponds with mind-body coherence and reduced stress. This study aimed to investigate metabolic responses to stress and different yoga practices in regular yoga practitioners (YP), non-yoga pract...
