Similar effects also appeared in SBP and DBP categories regardless of follow-up duration .
PA+D interventions had larger improvement effects on CVD risk factors than PA alone interventions .
In adults without IGT or diabetes , lifestyle interventions result ed in significant improvements in SBP , DBP , TC , LDL-C , HDL-C , and TG , and might further reduce CVD risk
Structured lifestyle interventions can reduce diabetes incidence and cardiovascular disease ( CVD ) risk among persons with impaired glucose tolerance ( IGT ) , but it is unclear whether they should be implemented among persons without IGT .
We conducted a systematic review and meta-analyses to assess the effectiveness of lifestyle interventions on CVD risk among adults without IGT or diabetes .
Association of 1-y changes in diet pattern with cardiovascular disease risk factors and adipokines: results from the 1-y randomized Oslo Diet and Exercise Study.
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that favorable changes in dietary patterns would lead to a reduction in body size and an improvement in metabolic status . OBJECTIVE The objective was to study changes in diet patterns relative to changes in body size , blood pressure , and circulating concentrations of lipids , glucose , insulin , adiponectin , and other cytokines in the context of a 1-y r and omized intervention study . DESIGN For 1 y , 187 men aged 45 + /- 2 y , approximately 50 % of whom met the criteria of the metabolic syndrome , were r and omly assigned to a diet protocol ( n = 45 ) , an exercise protocol ( n = 48 ) , a protocol of diet plus exercise ( n = 58 ) , or a control protocol ( n = 36 ) . A previously defined a priori diet score was created by summing tertile rankings of 35 food group variables ; a higher score generally reflected recommended dietary changes in the trial ( mean + /- SD at baseline : 31 + /- 6.5 ; range : 15 - 47 ) . RESULTS Over the study year , the diet score increased by approximately 2 + /- 5.5 in both diet groups , with a decrease of an equivalent amount in the exercise and control groups . The weight change was -3.5 + /- 0.6 kg/10-point change in diet score ( P < 0.0001 ) , similarly within each intervention group , independently of the change in energy intake or baseline age and smoking status . Weight change was attenuated but remained significant after adjustment for intervention group and percentage body fat . Subjects with an increased diet score had more favorable changes in other body size variables , systolic blood pressure , and blood lipid , glucose , insulin , and adiponectin concentrations . Change in diet score was unrelated to resistin and several cytokines . CONCLUSION The change toward a more favorable diet pattern was associated with improved body size and metabolic profile
