Phase angle (PhA), measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis, indicates cellular health, integrity, and function. As inflammation can damage cells, phase angle may be useful in detecting inflammatory status early. The relationship between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and PhA has not been studied yet. Therefore, we aimed to examine this assoc...

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) is a newly emerging viral infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2). Oxidative stress appears to be a prominent contributor to the pathogenicity of SARS‐CoV‐2. Therefore, we carried out a systematic review of human observational and interventional studies to investigate the...

Background Zinc is known to have a critical role in the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis, immune cells, and anti-diarrheal and anti-inflammatory actions. Aims The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between zinc status with serum zonulin and gastrointestinal symptoms in diarrhea-predominant patients with irritable bowel syndrome...

Zinc is an important trace element for structure, and regulation in the central nervous system, as well as the gut homeostasis. There are several mental disorders associated with zinc deficiency. The relationship between zinc nutritional status with mood states and quality of life (QoL) in diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) has n...

The relationship between dietary acid load (DAL) and metabolic health status in adolescents has not been studied yet. We aimed to examine the association between DAL and metabolic health status in Iranian overweight/obese adolescents. This cross-sectional study included 203 overweight/obese adolescents selected by a multistage cluster random sampli...

A dietary diversity score (DDS) may be a useful strategy for monitoring risks associated with chronic diseases. Few studies have investigated the relationship between DDS and the progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). A better understanding of the relationship between DDS and diabetic nephropathy (DN) may provide insight for monitoring the ov...

There are few studies that evaluated the relationship between dietary diversity score (DDS) and risk of cancer. The purpose of this study was to examine the association of DDS with the risk of prostate cancer (PC) among Iranian men. This case-control study was performed among 60 cases with prostate cancer and 60 hospital-based controls. Anthropomet...

Magnesium (Mg) is the second most frequent intracellular cation in humans with a critical role in insulin metabolism and glucoregulation. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) often present with insulin resistance and impaired glucoregulatory status; however, their Mg status remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to conduct a systematic review...

Inflammation is a major cause of chronic diseases. Several studies have investigated the effects of soy intake on inflammatory biomarkers; however, the results are equivocal. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical trials that evaluated the effect of soy consumption on inflammatory biomarkers. Medline,...

Background: Inflammation is a process that occurs in early phase of recovery in which immune system recognizes and removes immunological stimuli. Many chronic diseases have inflammation based pathogenesis. Several studies used soy and soy products for reducing inflammatory biomarkers. Objectives: The purpose of the present systematic review and met...
