Low energy density diet, weight loss maintenance, and risk of cardiovascular disease following a recent weight reduction program: A randomized control trial
No full textBackground: Little is known about the effects of a low energy dense diet on weight maintenance and cardiovascular risks following a recent weight reduction. Therefore, we assessed if weight maintenance, lipid profiles, and glycemic control differ between low energy density (LED) diet and usual diet consumers following a recent weight reduction. Materials and Methods: In this randomized controlled clinical trial study in a parallel design, we recruited 70 patients with the history of weight reduction in the recent 1 year. LED diet contained 30% fat, 15% protein, and 55% carbohydrate was administered to the test group, and a usual diet including 35% fat, 15% protein, and 50% carbohydrate was prescribed to the control group for 7 months. Dietary intake was assessed by using 3 days food records. Biochemical markers and anthropometric measures were done according to the standard protocol. Results: Weight reduced in LED diet consumers compared to usual diet consumers (−0.3 ± 0.2 vs. 1.3 ± 0.4%, P = 0.002). The results was the same regarding waist circumference (−0.4 ± 0.2 vs. 0.3 ± 0.1%, P = 0.004). Fasting blood sugar also decreased in LED diet group (−9.5 ± 0.8 vs. 0.4 ± 1.0%, P = 0.0001). LED diet group had a drop in percent change of their total cholesterol (−0.4 ± 0.5 vs. 2.05 ± 0.4%, P = 0.04) and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (4.8 ± 0.9 vs. −0.3 ± 0.9%, P = 0.002). Conclusion: Our findings confirmed beneficial effects of LED diet on attenuating weight regain in subjects with history of recent weight reduction. It might be derived from higher consumption of fruits, vegetables, and fiber among LED diet than usual diet consumers

Conventional casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate Versus casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate with nanosilver Particles On Primary Canine's Enamel Microhardness: CPP-ACP Vs. CPP-ACPAg On Primary Canine's Enamel Microhardness
No full textObjectives: Due to the importance of using more effective varnishes to prevent dental caries, this study aimed to compare the effect of conventional casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) and CPP-ACP with 1 and 2 w% nanosilver particles on microhardness of enamel of primary canines.
Methods: The initial surface micro-hardness of 36 intact human deciduous canines were measured by a Vickers hardness tester, then samples were immersed in demineralization solution for 24 hours, and then the microhardness of samples was re-measured. All samples were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=9): (A) control group(without therapy), (B) conventional CPP-ACP, (C) CPP-ACP with 1% nano silver, and (D) CPP-ACP with 2% nanosilver. Then samples were entered into pH cycles for 7 days. At the end of pH cycling, the surface microhardness of samples was measured, and the mean for each group was calculated. Data analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey analysis.
Results: The mean enamel micro-hardness in all groups after demineralization decreased significantly (P<0.05), but this reduction was significantly less in all three experimental groups compared to the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of surface microhardness changes between the three experimental groups (P>0.05).
Conclusion: Conventional CPP-ACP and CPP-ACP with 1 and 2 w% Nanosilver particles were equally effective on the enamel surface microhardness of human deciduous teeth. Silver Nanoparticles have no negative effect on enamel microhardness
