Dietary Total Antioxidant Capacity

Abstract Objective Dietary total antioxidant capacity (TAC) has been assumed as a useful tool to assess the relationship between the cumulative antioxidant food capacity and several chronic disorders. However, the relationship between the total antioxidant capacity of the diet (TAC) and the risk of RA has not been previously examined. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between DTAC and risk of RA in a case-control study. Methods This case-control study was carried out among 100 patients with RA and 200 healthy subjects aged 18–55 years. Dietary data were collected using a validated 147- items quantitative food frequency questionnaire. DTAC was calculated based on the ferric reducing-antioxidant power (FRAP) values that reported by US Department of Agriculture. Results The mean age and BMI of the study participants were 49.4 years and 25.6 Kg.m2.. The energy, protein, fiber, MUFA, n-3 fatty acid, vitamin B9, vegetable, and fruit were significantly increased across tertiles of DTAC. Also, Compared with participants in the lowest tertile of DTAC, those in the highest terrtile had a significantly lower OR for rheumatoid after adjustment for BMI; physical activity; waist circumference; smoking; and dietary intake energy and fat (model 3: OR, 0.19; 95% CI, 0.07–0.51; p for trend, 0.001). Conclusions Our findings showed that a high DTAC was associated with a reduced risk of RA in adult, suggesting that promoting a naturally elevated antioxidant capacity might help prevent the development of RA. Further prospective studies should be conducted in this regard.

<p><strong>BACKGROUND &amp; OBJECTIVE: </strong>Imbalance between oxidative stress and saliva antioxidants plays a major role in initiation and spread of dental caries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of saliva in dental caries.</p><p><strong>METHODS: </strong>In this case-control study which employed high school students (14-18 years), the un-stimulated saliva samples of 60 students without dental caries (control group) and 60 students with dental caries (with at least 5 teeth levels of dental caries) were gathered. Each group comprised of males (half of cases) and females (half of cases). TAC of saliva was measured by Zellbio® (Netherlands) in terms of micmol/L. The data were analyzed using the SPSS software (ver. 17.0) and t-test with considering significance level at 0.05.</p><p><strong>RESULTS</strong><strong>:</strong> TAC of saliva was significantly lower in cases with dental caries (0.256±0.106) compared to those without dental caries (0.396±0.077); P&lt; 0.001. There was no statistically significant difference of TAC of saliva between males (0.319±0.119) and females (0.333±0.113) irrespective of dental caries (P=0.507).</p><p><strong>CONCLUSION: </strong>The results of the study indicated that there was a reverse association between dental caries and TAC of saliva.</p>

The Relationship

(1) Background: Much effort has been expended to investigate the antioxidant capacity of human plasma, attempting to clarify the roles of both metabolic and food substances in determining defenses against oxidative stress. The relationship between the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and the concentrations of redox-active biomolecules in the human plasma of healthy and cardiopathic individuals was investigated in the present study to develop a chemical speciation model. (2) Methods: Plasma was collected from 85 blood donors and from 25 cardiovascular surgery patients. The TAC was measured using the CUPRAC-BCS (CUPric Reducing Antioxidant Capacity — Bathocuproinedisulfonic acid) method. Biomolecule concentrations were determined via visible spectrophotometry or HPLC/RP techniques. The relationship between the TAC and the concentrations was defined by applying a multiple regression analysis. The significance of the variables was first tested, and chemical models were proposed for the two datasets. The model equation is TAC=∑iβi∙[Ai] , where βi and [Ai] are the electronic exchange and the molar concentrations of the ith antioxidant component, respectively. (3) Results: The major contributions to the TAC, ~80%, come from endogenous compounds in both healthy and cardiopathic individuals, whereas the contributions from exogenous compounds were different between the two datasets. In particular, γ-tocopherol showed a different role in the chemical models developed for the two groups.

Dietary Total Antioxidant Capacity

Abstract. Background: In the present meta-analysis, we aimed to summarize the relationship between dietary total antioxidant capacity (TAC), general and central obesity indices and lipid profile in adult population. Methods: The electronic databases of Web of Sciences, PubMed, Scopus and Cochrane library were searched for relevant studies from inception to October 2019. The effect size was indicated as weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) by using random effects model. The I2 index and Cochran’s Q-test were used for evaluating heterogeneity. Results: From 2,469 studies identified, thirty-four studies (nineteen cross-sectional studies, thirteen cohort studies, two case-control studies) were included in the meta-analysis. According to our results, higher categories of TAC were associated with significantly lower serum triglyceride concentartions (TG; WMD: −7.58; CI: −11.42, −3.75; P < 0.001) and waist circumference (WC; WMD: −1.17; 95% CI: −1.47, −0.87; P < 0.001); while no significant change in body mass index (BMI; WMD: −0.17; 95% CI: −0.35, 0.01; P = 0.12), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C; WMD: 0.61; 95% CI: −0.16, 1.40; P = 0.12), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C; WMD: 1.34; 95% CI: −0.61, 3.30; P = 0.17) and total cholesterol (TC; WMD: 1.19; 95% CI: −1.46, 3.855; P = 0.37) was reported. Conclusion: Higher dietary TAC was related to reduced prevalence of central obesity, reduced WC and TG concentrations in the current meta-analysis. Moreover, subgroup analysis showed that TAC measurement index, geographical area, dietary assessment tool, health status and gender were potential sources of heterogeneity.
