Reproducibility and validity of a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire.
TLDR
Data indicate that a simple self-administered dietary questionnaire can provide useful information about individual nutrient intakes over a one-year period.

Inflammation, aspirin, and the risk of cardiovascular disease in apparently healthy men.
TLDR
The reduction associated with the use of aspirin in the risk of a first myocardial infarction appears to be directly related to the level of C-reactive protein, raising the possibility that antiinflammatory agents may have clinical benefits in preventing cardiovascular disease.

Reproducibility and validity of an expanded self-administered semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire among male health professionals.
TLDR
The authors assessed the reproducibility and validity of an expanded 131-item semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire used in a prospective study among 51,529 men and found that it provides a useful measure of intake for many nutrients over a one-year period.

Alternative dietary indices both strongly predict risk of chronic disease.
TLDR
The findings suggest that closer adherence to the 2005 Dietary Guidelines may lower risk of major chronic disease, however, the AHEI-2010, which included additional dietary information, was more strongly associated with chronic disease risk, particularly CHD and diabetes.

Dietary fiber, glycemic load, and risk of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in women.
TLDR
The hypothesis that diets with a high glycemic load and a low cereal fiber content increase risk of diabetes in women is supported and grains should be consumed in a minimally refined form to reduce the incidence of diabetes.

Trans fatty acids and cardiovascular disease.
TLDR
The authors consider the feasibility and potential implications of reducing or eliminating the consumption of trans fatty acids from partially hydrogenated vegetable oils in the United States.

Dietary Fiber, Glycemic Load, and Risk of NIDDM in Men
TLDR
Findings support the hypothesis that diets with a high glycemic load and a low cereal fiber content increase risk of NIDDM in men and suggest that grains should be consumed in a minimally refined form to reduce the incidence of N IDDM.

Plasma concentration of interleukin-6 and the risk of future myocardial infarction among apparently healthy men.
TLDR
A role for cytokine-mediated inflammation in the early stages of atherogenesis is supported in apparently healthy men, and elevated levels of IL-6 are associated with increased risk of future MI.

Diet quality and major chronic disease risk in men and women: moving toward improved dietary guidance.
TLDR
The AHEI predicted chronic disease risk better than did the RFS (or the HEI, in previous research) primarily because of a strong inverse association with CVD.

Obesity, Fat Distribution, and Weight Gain as Risk Factors for Clinical Diabetes in Men
TLDR
Although early obesity, absolute weight gain throughout adulthood, and waist circumference were good predictors of diabetes, attained BMI was the dominant risk factor for NIDDM; even men of average relative weight had significantly elevated RRs.
