Main lines of research
Cardiovascular risk factors (nutrition, diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, lipid levels, smoking, etc.) affect cardiovascular disease incidence through several physio-pathological pathways.
Our group investigates some of these pathways in these research lines:
• The role of diet on intermediate markers of cardiovascular risk
- Evaluation of the effect of a Mediterranean diet on the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (Predimed Study).
- Phytate intake, coronary calcification and risk of cardiovascular disease.
- Change in cardiovascular risk score and metabolic syndrome after an intervention based on the Mediterranean diet.
• Phatological implications of obesity
- Valuation of an intensive lifestyle intervention based on a low calorie Mediterranean diet, physical activity and conductual treatment on weight loss and cardiovascular disease prevention (PredimedPlus study).
- Molecular basis of sexual dimorphism on the energy metabolism and mitocondrial function; pathological implications.
