Mitochondrial Haplogroups and Lifespan in a Population Isolate – ScienceDirect

“The lifespan-lengthening association was apparent in both sexes but only after the age of 60. Our results provide further support for the role of mitochondrial genetics in lengthening human lifespan.”

Dietary inflammatory index and mortality

Dietary inflammatory index and mortality

“Higher Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII®) scores are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. However, little is known about the effects of DII on mortality in Mediterranean countries. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to investigate the potential association between DII scores and overall, cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in people living in a Mediterranean area.”

“Higher DII scores were associated with a significantly higher mortality risk, whereas the association with cause‐specific mortality was less clear. These findings highlight the potential importance of diet in modulating inflammation and preventing death. ”
