---|---|---|---|---|
Humaira [73] | Nonrandomized controlled experiments in humans |
n = 11 Overweight adults |
Glu↓; ketones, cholesterol, BDNF, SIRT1, LC3A↑ | TRF improves cardiac metabolic health, alters circadian rhythms, and has antiaging effects. |
Rong [74] | Nonrandomized controlled experiments on animals |
n = 23 Male elderly Wistar rat tumorigenesis |
BW, HDL-C, LDL-C↓↓; GT↓; FPG↑↑ | IF can improve the intestinal flora and reduce the body mass and blood lipid levels of obese rats in the presenile period. |
Hu [75] | Nonrandomized controlled experiments on animals | ApoE mice with atherosclerosis (n = 6) AS mouse IF group (n = 32) AL group (n = 32) |
MMP-9, CC, FC, LC↓ | IF reduced the area of atherosclerotic plaque and delayed the progression of atherosclerosis in AS mice. |
Note: BW: body weight; HDL-C; LDL-C; Glu: blood glucose; FPG: fasting glucose; GT: glucose tolerance; CC: cholesterol crystals; FC foam cells; CF fibrous cap; LC lipid core; LC3A: microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3A.
