Plasma choline and betaine and risks of cardiovascular events and recurrent stroke after ischemic stroke
ConclusionsPlasma choline pathway metabolites, including choline and betaine, were associated with decreased risks of cardiovascular events and recurrent stroke and provided incremental value in risk discrimination and stratification in patients with ischemic stroke. This nested case-control study was based on the China Antihypertensive Trial in Acute Ischemic Stroke, which is registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01840072.

Different associations between HDL cholesterol and cardiovascular diseases in people with diabetes mellitus and people without diabetes mellitus: a prospective community-based study
ConclusionsHigh HDL-cholesterol concentrations were paradoxically associated with high risk of composite CVD outcomes in individuals with or without DM. However, low HDL-cholesterol concentrations failed to predict future CVD risk in individuals with DM.

Dairy consumption and mortality after myocardial infarction: a prospective analysis in the Alpha Omega Cohort
ConclusionsIn Dutch post-MI patients, yogurt consumption was inversely associated with CVD mortality and all-cause mortality. Associations for milk and other dairy products were neutral or inconsistent.This trial was registered atclinicaltrials.gov as NCT03192410.

A prospective study of waist circumference trajectories and incident cardiovascular disease in China: the Kailuan Cohort Study
ConclusionsWC trajectory patterns were associated with altered risk of CVD among Chinese adults, even among people without BMI-defined obesity. When stratifying by age, the association was observed to be higher in younger adults.

Mushrooms and health
In the paper by Lee et al. in this issue of the Journal, no effect on cardiovascular disease (CVD), stroke, or diabetes risk was observed when comparing mushroom intake ≥5 times/wk with intake of<1 time/mo (1). Their investigation is the largest prospective study to date on mushrooms and health with a total follow-up of>100,000 health professionals from 1986 until 2012. In addition, no effects of mushroom intake were observed in a subset of ∼15,000 men and women on any intermediate biomarkers, including blood lipids, C-peptide, and several markers related to inflammation. The null findings were highly consistent ...
