Short-term Cocoa Supplementation and Elite Soccer Players
DyslipidemiasFatty Acid; Metabolic DisorderThe goal of this interventional study was to investigate the impact of daily ingestion of 30g of dark chocolate on omega-3 fatty acid status and gut microbial community in professional soccer players. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can 30g of dark chocolate positively influence the metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFAs) and, particularly, arachidonic acid (AA): eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) ratio? Can 30g of dark chocolate change the microbial composition in professional soccer players? Elite male soccer players were randomly divided into 2 groups. One group was provided with 30g of dark chocolate 88% (2,5 mg/g of polyphenol) and one group, as control, was provided with with 30g of white chocolate (0 mg/g of polyphenol). Each group ingested the chocolate intervention as a "solid bar" in the morning (before 9:00 am) every day for 4 weeks. The dark chocolate and white chocolate were provided every morning to each subject by the nutritionist of each team, while, during off days, the chocolate was portioned into individual serving sizes and provided to each player. Adherence was checked by the nutritionist. For each assessment, the participants arrived at the training center in the morning, after an overnight fast. Before the beginning and the end of the study, a 3-days food record (3dr) was recorded (2 weekdays and 1 week-end day) by the nutritionist. Blood was collected between 08:00 and 09:00 hours, fecal sample was delivered within the end of the morning, and anthropometry measures were determined.

Benefits Of Using Various Starting Doses Of Atorvastatin On Achievement Of Cholesterol Targets
Coronary ArteriosclerosisDiabetes Mellitus4 moreEuropean physicians tend to always use the lowest dose of statins to initiate therapy even in subjects who require large reductions in cholesterol. The study evaluates if selecting the starting dose based on baseline and target LDL-C cholesterol would provide better results (ie proportion of subjects resching target)
