Mashup Score: 29Cardio-Metabolic Benefits of Plant-Based Diets - 9 month(s) ago
Cardio-metabolic disease, namely ischemic heart disease, stroke, obesity, and type 2 diabetes, represent substantial health and economic burdens. Almost one half of cardio-metabolic deaths in the U.S. might be prevented through proper nutrition. Plant-based (vegetarian and vegan) diets are an effective strategy for improving nutrient intake. At the same time, they are associated with decreased all-cause mortality and decreased risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and coronary heart disease. Evidence suggests that plant-based diets may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease events by an estimated 40% and the risk of cerebral vascular disease events by 29%. These diets also reduce the risk of developing metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes by about one half. Properly planned vegetarian diets are healthful, effective for weight and glycemic control, and provide metabolic and cardiovascular benefits, including reversing atherosclerosis and decreasing blood lipids and blood pressure.

Mashup Score: 2Impact of the Internet on Patient-Physician Communication - 12 month(s) ago
In this report, we discuss how health information on the internet can help or hurt communication between patients and doctors. We conclude that the internet can be helpful for patient-physician communication, but it depends on the quality of health information found and whether that information is discussed during medical visits.

Mashup Score: 36
Over 90% of US adults use the internet, and there is a substantial amount of online content about health topics. Unfortunately, substantial limitations have been identified with urological information on the internet. Major problems include insufficient content presented at the recommended 6th grade reading level for consumer health information and a high prevalence of circulating misinformation.
