“…The results revealed that after a three-year follow-up period elderly men and women with DM and/or SA did not generally modify their food consumption as a means of supporting the secondary treatment of these diseases. In addition, the results of the study showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the prevalence of food consumption indicators among elderly persons with and without DM and/or SAH, except for the consumption of fried foods among women, thus corroborating previous results in literature 8,9,16 . In Brazil, a cross-sectional survey with representative data of elderly persons from 26 Brazilian state capitals (n=5007) showed that among participants with hypertension, eating habits that are harmful to health, such as the low consumption of fruits and vegetables and the high consumption of saturated fats and sodium, continued even after diagnosis of this disease 9 .…”

Objective: to evaluate if the prevalence of healthy food consumption indicators among elderly persons with the self-reported diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and/or systemic arterial hypertension (DM and/or SAH) improved after diagnosis of these diseases, and to compare if the prevalence of such indicators was more frequent among elderly persons with DM and/or SAH than in elderly persons without these diseases. Method: a longitudinal study of 1,197 elderly persons aged 60-104 years, living in Florianopolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil, was performed, considering as an outcome the self-reported diagnosis of diabetes and/or hypertension. Healthy consumption indicators (exposures) were considered the maintenance and/or acquisition of the intake of fruit and vegetables ≥3 and ≥2 times/day, respectively, the consumption of fatty meat <2 times/week, and fried foods <2 times/week. Data was analyzed in terms of absolute and relative frequencies, and Poisson Regression was used to obtain the crude and adjusted prevalence of food consumption indicators. Values of p≤0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: when comparing the prevalences of the indicators of healthy food consumption among elderly persons with DM and/or SAH with those without these diseases, it was observed that only the consumption of fried foods changed positively between the periods 2009-2010 and 2013-2014. This result was statistically significant only for women, with maintaining/acquiring the infrequent consumption of fried foods (<2 times/week) 8.2% higher among elderly women with DM and/or SAH, p=0.043. Conclusion: The prevalence of healthy food consumption indicators was low and there was almost no difference between older adults with and without DM and/or SAH.

“…The finding that blacks with SBP/DBP <110/70 mm Hg at baseline (ie, when participants were aged 18–30 years) have a higher risk for developing hypertension than their white counterparts suggests that racial disparities in hypertension are not solely attributed to higher BP levels beginning in childhood. Racial differences in factors, including the maintenance of health behaviors, may also play an important role in the higher incidence of hypertension in blacks compared with whites 21, 22, 23…”

BackgroundBlacks have higher blood pressure levels compared with whites beginning in childhood. Few data are available on racial differences in the incidence of hypertension from young adulthood through middle age.Methods and ResultsWe calculated the cumulative incidence of hypertension from age 18 to 55 years among participants in the CARDIA (Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults) study. Incident hypertension was defined by the first visit with mean systolic blood pressure ≥130 mm Hg, mean diastolic blood pressure ≥80 mm Hg, or self‐reported use of antihypertensive medication. Among 3890 participants without hypertension at baseline (aged 18–30 years), cumulative incidence of hypertension by age 55 years was 75.5%, 75.7%, 54.5%, and 40.0% in black men, black women, white men, and white women, respectively. Among participants with systolic blood pressure/diastolic blood pressure <110 and 70, 110 to 119/70 to 74, and 120 to 129/75 to 79 mm Hg at baseline, blacks were more likely than whites to develop hypertension: multivariable‐adjusted hazard ratios 1.97 (95% confidence interval, 1.65, 2.35), 1.80 (95% confidence interval, 1.52, 2.14), and 1.59 (95% confidence interval, 1.31, 1.93), respectively. Parental history of hypertension and higher body mass index, serum uric acid, and systolic blood pressure/diastolic blood pressure categories were associated with a higher risk for hypertension among blacks and whites. A higher Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension diet adherence score was associated with a lower risk for hypertension in blacks and whites.ConclusionsRegardless of blood pressure level in young adulthood, blacks have a substantially higher risk for hypertension compared with whites through 55 years of age.

“…Some have hypothesized that this finding may reflect differences in environmental and lifestyle factors between Latinos and other populations. For example, MSI-H CRC has been associated with tobacco use 36, 38 , which is less prevalent in Latinos compared to other populations 39 ; and high body-mass-index, which is more common in Latinos, is associated with microsatellite stable CRC tumors 40 . Further studies are needed to investigate these hypotheses.…”

Background The landscape of hereditary syndromes and clinicopathologic characteristics among U.S. Latinos/Hispanics with colorectal cancer (CRC) remains poorly understood. Methods A total of 265 CRC patients enrolled in the Hispanic Colorectal Cancer Study were included in this study. Information regarding CRC risk factors was elicited through interviews, and treatment and survival data was abstracted from clinical charts. Tumor studies and germline genetic testing results were collected from medical records or performed using standard molecular methods. Results The mean age at diagnosis was 53.7 years (SD=10.3), and 48.3% were female. Overall, 21.2% reported a first- or second-degree relative with CRC; 3.4% met Amsterdam I/II criteria. With respect to Bethesda guidelines, 38.5% met at least one criterion. Of the 161 individuals who had immunohistochemistry (IHC) and/or microsatellite instability (MSI) testing performed, 21 (13.0%) had mismatch repair (MMR) deficient tumors. dMMR tumors were associated with female sex (61.9%), earlier age of diagnosis (50.4 ± 12.4 years), proximal location (61.9%), and first (23.8%) or second (9.5%) degree family history of CRC. Among individuals with dMMR tumors, 13 (61.9%) had a germline MMR mutation (MLH1=6, MSH2=4, MHS6=2, and PMS2=1). We identified two additional MLH1 mutation carriers by genetic testing who had not received IHC/MSI testing. In total, 5.7% of the entire cohort were confirmed cases of Lynch syndrome. Additionally, six individuals (2.3%) had a polyposis phenotype. Conclusions The proportion of dMMR tumors in Latinos (13%) is similar to estimates in non-Hispanic Whites. The majority of individuals with dMMR tumors were confirmed to have Lynch syndrome.
