OBJECTIVE: There are various studies showing the cardiovascular benefits of the @entity827 ( @entity827 ), but, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first study which aimed to investigate the relation between adherence to the @entity827 and severity of @entity453 ( @entity453 ). METHODS: The study was a single centre, cross-sectional prospective study which included 200 consecutive @entity1 (131 @entity1 [65.5%] and 69 @entity1 [34.5%], mean age 57  9) who were diagnosed with @entity453 by coronary angiography between January 2012 and April 2013. A food frequency questionnaire was administered to the @entity1 . Compliance to the @entity827 was evaluated by the @entity827 score (MDS), which collects prominent diet characteristics under 10 main titles. Each @entity1 's angiographic data was examined by a cardiologist, and Gensini scores (GS) were then calculated to evaluate the extensiveness of @entity453 . RESULTS: Forty-four percent of @entity1 were in the third category of body mass index (BMI) (>= 30 kg/m2) and 17.5% were in the first category (BMI <25 kg/m2). Education levels were markedly low, with 78% of the @entity1 having fewer than six years in education. Most @entity1 had low physical activity levels (55.5%). Frequency of @entity209 was prominent (79%). The median (25-75 percentiles) of GS was found to be 21.25 (7-44.75) and the @entity827 score was 4 (3-5). A negative correlation was found between compliance to the @entity827 and GS (r=-0.380, p<0.001). CONCLUSION: This study found that in @entity1 with @entity453 , compliance with the traditional @entity827 is related to decreased severity of @entity453 .
