Metabolic B12 deficiency: a missed opportunity to prevent dementia and stroke
The purpose of this narrative review is to highlight insights into the importance and frequency of metabolic vitamin B12 (B12) deficiency, reasons why it commonly missed, and reasons for the widespread but mistaken belief that treatment of B12 deficiency does not prevent stroke or improve cognitive function. Metabolic B12 deficiency is common, being present in 10-40% of the population, frequently missed, easily treated and contributes importantly to cognitive decline and stroke in older people. Measuring serum B12 alone is not sufficient for diagnosis; it is necessary to measure holotranscobalamin or functional markers of ...

Low Levels of Plasma Omega 3-Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids are Associated with Cerebral Small Vessel Diseases in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients
Cerebral small vessel diseases (SVDs) are related to stroke or cognitive dysfunction. n-3-polyunsaturated fatty acids (FAs) such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) represent possible disease modifying factors for cardiovascular disease or dementia. Our hypothesis was that a low proportion of plasma FAs would be associated with cerebral SVDs. We prospectively enrolled 220 patients with a first-episode cerebral infarction within 7 days after symptom onset. The composition of plasma FAs was analyzed by gas chromatography methods.

Vitamin D and brain health: an observational and Mendelian randomization study
CONCLUSIONS: Low vitamin D status was associated with neuroimaging outcomes and the risks of dementia and stroke even after extensive covariate adjustment. MR analyses support a causal effect of vitamin D deficiency on dementia but not on stroke risk.PMID:35451454 | DOI:10.1093/ajcn/nqac107

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy feeding is beneficial in patients with advanced dementia.
CONCLUSIONS: Mortality and CRP levels were statistically significantly higher in the advanced dementia group not fed via PEG. The mortality and rate of complications in the dementia group were similar to those in the stroke group. Feeding with PEG-tubes is a proper and preferable method for advanced dementia patients.

Dietary cholesterol and egg intake in relation to incident cardiovascular disease and all-cause and cause-specific mortality in postmenopausal women.
CONCLUSIONS: Both higher dietary cholesterol intake and higher egg consumption appeared to be associated with modestly elevated risk of incident CVD and all-cause mortality in US postmenopausal women. PMID: 33330926 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Fish in the diet: A review
Summary Fish plays a useful role in a healthy and balanced diet, and its consumption has long been associated with several health benefits. Fish provides a variety of nutrients, including protein and long‐chain omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFAs), as well as micronutrients including selenium, iodine, potassium, vitamin D and B‐vitamins. Intakes of some of these micronutrients, including iodine and vitamin D, are low in some population groups in the UK, which makes fish a valuable contributor to intakes of these. The long‐chain n‐3 PUFA eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), pres...

Association between inflammatory potential of diet and mortality in the Iowa Women’s Health study
Conclusion These results indicate that a pro-inflammatory diet, as evidenced by higher DII scores, may be associated with total mortality as well as mortality from digestive cancer, CVD, CHD and COPD.
