A large French study has found that commonly used food preservatives, including some labeled as 'natural,' may be linked to higher risks of high blood pressure, heart attacks, and strokes. The research analyzed over 112,000 participants in the NutriNet-Santé study, tracking their consumption of preservatives in store-bought foods over several years. Eight preservatives, including ascorbic acid (vitamin C), citric acid, potassium sorbate, sodium nitrite, and others, were associated with elevated blood pressure. Non-antioxidant preservatives like sodium nitrite and potassium metabisulphite, often found in processed meats, wine, and baked goods, have long been linked to heart disease. Even antioxidant preservatives, typically considered safer, showed significant cardiovascular risks when consumed as additives. The study highlights that preservatives are widespread across many foods, not just ultraprocessed items, and emphasizes choosing minimally processed or frozen foods preserved without chemical additives. While observational and not proving causation, the study controlled for factors like age, BMI, smoking, and physical activity, offering strong evidence that some preservatives may contribute to long-term cardiovascular health risks. Researchers recommend further investigation and dietary awareness to reduce exposure to these additives.

<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" dir="auto" id="d7357805e237"> <b> <i>Introduction:</i> </b> Psoriasis is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Previous studies have found that treatment with tumour necrosis factor or interleukin (IL)-17 inhibitors leads to reductions in the systemic inflammation biomarkers neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR). The primary aim of this study was to evaluate changes in NLR, PLR and MLR with guselkumab compared with placebo (VOYAGE I/II), adalimumab (VOYAGE I/II), and secukinumab (ECLIPSE). The secondary aims were to assess correlation with disease severity, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, and treatment response. <b> <i>Methods:</i> </b> This was a post hoc analysis of VOYAGE I, VOYAGE II, and ECLIPSE Phase III randomised trial data on guselkumab for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. NLR, PLR, and MLR were evaluated at baseline and Week 16 in VOYAGE I and II and at baseline and Week 12 in ECLIPSE. Mean changes were compared between groups using a Student’s <i>t</i> test; Pearson’s test was used for correlation analyses. <b> <i>Results:</i> </b> VOYAGE I included 837 randomised patients, VOYAGE II included 992 randomised patients, and ECLIPSE included 1,048 randomised patients. In VOYAGE I, NLR ( <i>p</i> = 0.011), PLR ( <i>p</i> = 0.015), and MLR ( <i>p</i> = 0.004) decreased significantly following 16 weeks of guselkumab treatment vs. placebo. In VOYAGE II, reductions in NLR ( <i>p</i> = 0.003), PLR ( <i>p</i> = 0.006), and MLR ( <i>p</i> = 0.001) were greater at Week 16 in patients treated with guselkumab vs. placebo. Treatment with adalimumab was associated with a greater reduction ( <i>p</i> < 0.001) in the three biomarkers vs. guselkumab, while secukinumab resulted in a similar reduction in NLR, PLR, and MLR compared with guselkumab ( <i>p</i> = 0.413, 0.650, and 0.498, respectively). All biomarkers weakly correlated with Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) at baseline and showed modest correlations with CRP levels. Biomarkers in patients who were PASI90 responders were consistent between all active treatment groups at baseline. <b> <i>Conclusions:</i> </b> Guselkumab is a highly efficacious treatment for plaque psoriasis; the study has demonstrated the potential benefit of treatment with guselkumab in reducing systemic inflammation as measured by NLR, PLR, and MLR, which appeared to be independent of psoriasis response, suggesting that reducing systemic inflammation with guselkumab may decrease CVD risk. </p>
You walk into the clinic, maybe feeling a little rushed, a little anxious. It’s appointment time. The nurse wraps the cuff around your arm, it tightens, and then… the numbers. #ambulatorybloodpressuremonitoring #anxiety #cardiovascularrisk #highbloodpressure #homebloodpressuremonitoring #hypertension #whitecoatsyndrome
