Low-carbohydrate diet macronutrient quality and weight change

JAMA Network Open

Peer-Reviewed Publication

JAMA NETWORK



About The Study: In this study using data from three large prospective cohort studies among 123,000 individuals, low-carbohydrate diets that emphasized high-quality proteins, fats and carbohydrates from whole grains and other healthy plant-based foods were significantly associated with slower weight gain in the long term. In contrast, low-carbohydrate diets emphasizing animal-sourced proteins and fats or refined carbohydrates were associated with faster weight gain.

Benzodiazepine use during pregnancy and risk of miscarriage


JAMA Psychiatry

Peer-Reviewed Publication

JAMA NETWORK




About The Study: This nationwide case-time-control study revealed an increased risk of miscarriage associated with benzodiazepine use during pregnancy after accounting for measurable confounders, and results were unlikely to be due to unmeasured confounding. These findings underscore the necessity for health care professionals to meticulously balance the risk-benefit ratio when considering the use of benzodiazepines to treat psychiatric and sleep disorders during pregnancy. 

Authors: Fei-Yuan Hsiao, Ph.D., of National Taiwan University in Taipei, Taiwan, is the corresponding author.
