background: in recent decades, studies on type 2 diabetes (t2d), have adopted a new approach to the field of a more complete collection of variables related to the lifestyles and diet of people. diet is an important factor in increasing the rate of t2d among individuals. considering the consumption of a high-carbohydrate diet, little attention has been paid to the type of carbohydrates consumed...

background: for decades, it was suspected that diabetes contributed to poorer oral health and the increased frequency of periodontitis. more recently it was found that periodontitis could adversely affect glycemic control in diabetics. the aim of this study was to compare periodontal parameters with the metabolic sugar levels of diabetic and non-diabetic individuals. materials and methods: in t...

background: stroke is a leading cause of preventable morbidity and mortality in the united states. numerous studies have shown that dietary carbohydrates play an important role in stroke incident. therefore, this study aimed to assess the association between dietary intake of carbohydrate and its types and stroke incidence among iranian adults. methods: a case‑control study was performed among ...

chorea is brief, quasi-purposeful, irregular muscle contractions, not repetitive or rhythmic, but flows from one muscle to the next and athetosis is slow, writhing, continuous, worm-like movements of distal extremities (chiefly the fingers) which show bizarre positioning without posturing. metabolic causes have been documented earlier, note worthy of that being diabetes. choreoathetosis has bee...

equal amounts of carbohydrates from various foodstuffs do not increase blood glucose to the same extent. this study was carried out, therefore, in 1996 at the national nutrition and food technology research institute in tehran to determine the glycemic index of split pease, rice (binam), kidney beans, green peas, “lavash” bread and broad bean kernels. diabetic subjects were studied in a clinica...

BACKGROUND Previous epidemiological investigations of associations between dietary glycemic intake and insulin resistance have used average daily measures of glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL). We explored multiple and novel measures of dietary glycemic intake to determine which was most predictive of an association with insulin resistance. METHODS Usual dietary intakes were assessed ...

abstract background: atherosclerosis and subsequent coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in iranian population. high serum lipid levels, especially the elevated level of low-density lipoprotein (ldl), have been shown to be strongly related to the development of atherosclerosis. the relationship between dietary glycemic index (gi) and lipid profile, particularly in nonwestern po...
