“…Oxidative stress (2,3,6,8,9,(13)(14)(15) pertaining to PD may be mediated through advanced glycation end-products that are created through non-enzymatic pathways from monosaccharide substances, dicarbonyls originating from the Maillard reaction, sugar self-oxidation and other molecular pathways (16,17) . Several studies show a link between soft drinks and systemic disease (18,19) , but the specific association between the intake of soft drinks and PD has not been investigated yet. From the aspect of epidemiology, it is therefore of interest to assess the association between the intake of soft drinks and PD through a large-scale epidemiological study.…”

Objective: To elucidate the association between the intake of soft drinks and periodontal disease (PD) among Taiwanese middle-aged adults. Design: The cross-sectional design was employed to assess a dose-response relationship between the intake of soft drinks and PD after controlling for relevant confounding factors, with adjusted odds ratios obtained from a multivariate logistic regression model. Setting: Keelung Community-based Integrated Screening (KCIS) programme, Keelung, Taiwan. Subjects: Participants (n 10 213) aged 35-44 years who had undergone oral checks for PD between 2005 and 2009. Results: A dose-response relationship between the intake of soft drinks and elevated risk for PD defined by community periodontal index ≥3 (the current status of PD) was noted (P = 0·02 by trend test). Compared with infrequent intake of soft drinks (≤2 times/week), the adjusted OR increased from 1·05 (95 % CI 0·92, 1·20) for the frequency of 3-4 times/week to 1·17 (95 % CI 1·03, 1·34) for the frequency of ≥5 times/week. A similar trend (P < 0·01) was also observed for PD defined by loss of attachment ≥1 (representing the long-term cumulative gum damage due to PD). Conclusions: A dose-response relationship between the intake frequency of soft drinks and PD was observed in Taiwanese middle-aged adults. Such evidence could be used in health promotion to support reductions in soft drink intake.

“…It is also possible that the link between SSB consumption and asthma is moderated by excess adiposity, as SSB intake increases the risk of obesity (15) and obesity is highly correlated with asthma (29) . However, the study by Shi et al (7) found that the relationship between SSB consumption and asthma held even when controlling for body composition. Thus, there appear to be other important factors besides obesity that may explain the connection between SSB and asthma development.…”

“…Specifically, a study in nearly 17 000 Australian adults revealed a significant association between SSB intake and asthma (7) . Also, utilizing a multivariate analysis, the authors found the odds of having asthma were 26 % greater in adults who consumed more than half a litre of FV, fruit and vegetable intake; SSB, sugar-sweetened beverage consumption; VO 2max , maximal aerobic capacity.…”

“…SSB consumption is associated with poor health, including conditions such as obesity (15) , CVD (16) , type 2 diabetes (15) and metabolic syndrome (15) . Interestingly, recent data also link SSB with airway health, specifically asthma (7,(17)(18)(19) . One recent cross-sectional study found that SSB consumption was positively associated with asthma in a sample of 16 907 Australian adults aged 16 years and older (7) .…”

Objective: The prevalence of asthma is rising, presenting serious public health challenges. Recent data suggest that sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption plays a role in asthma aetiology. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether SSB consumption is linked to post-exercise airway narrowing (predictor of asthma development) across puberty. Design: Participants completed pulmonary function tests, physical activity and dietary habit questionnaires, and an exercise test to exhaustion. Setting: Community in Manhattan, Kansas, USA. Subjects: We recruited ten boys and ten girls from an original cohort of forty participants tested in our laboratory approximately 5 years prior. Participants were aged 9·7 (SD 0·9) years at baseline and 14·7 (SD 0·9) years at follow-up. Results: Pre-puberty, boys consumed 6·8 (SD 4·8) servings/week and girls consumed 6·9 (SD 3·7) servings/week, while post-puberty boys consumed 11·5 (SD 5·3) servings/week and girls consumed 7·7 (SD 4·3) servings/week. Using Pearson correlation, SSB consumption was not significantly related to postexercise airway narrowing at pre-puberty (r = − 0·35, P = 0·130). In linear regression analyses, SSB consumption was significantly related to post-exercise airway narrowing post-puberty before (standardized β = − 0·60, P = 0·005) but not after (standardized β = − 0·33, P = 0·211) adjustment for confounders. Change in SSB consumption from pre-to post-puberty was significantly associated with post-exercise airway narrowing post-puberty (r = − 0·61, P = 0·010) and change in post-exercise airway narrowing from pre-to post-puberty (r = − 0·45, P = 0·048) when assessed via Pearson correlations. Conclusions: These findings suggest a possible link between SSB consumption and asthma development during maturation. Reduced SSB intake may be a possible public health avenue for blunting rising asthma prevalence.

The endothelial border to health: Mechanistic evidence of the hyperglycemic culprit of inflammatory disease acceleration

The endothelial cell (EC) layer constitutes a barrier that controls movements of fluid, solutes and cells between blood and tissue. Further, the endothelial layer regulates vascular tone and directs local humoral and cellular inflammatory processes. The strategic position makes it an important player for maintenance of health and for development of a number of diseases. Endothelial dysfunction is known to be an important component of type 2 diabetes, but is also assumed to be involved in many other diseases, for example, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, asthma, and cardiovascular diseases. We here suggest that the EC plays a pivotal role in disease pathophysiology through initiation, potentiation, and maintenance of several inflammatory mechanisms. Our contention is based on the observation that hyperglycemia-intermittent or sustained, local or systemic-is a major culprit for several endothelial dysfunctions. There is also mounting epidemiological evidence that dietary intake of refined sugars is important for the development of a number of diseases beyond obesity and type 2 diabetes. Various diseases involving inflammatory and immunological components are accelerated by hyperglycemic events because the endothelium transduces "high glucose" signaling into significant pathophysiological phenomena leading to reduced endothelial barrier function, compromised vascular tone regulation and inflammation (e.g., cytokine secretion and RAGE activation). In addition, endothelial extracellular proteins form epitopes for potential specific antibody formation upon interactions with reducing sugars. This paper reviews the endothelial metabolism, biology, inflammatory processes, physical barrier functions, and summarizes evidence that although stochastic in nature, endothelial responses to hyperglycemia are major contributors to disease pathophysiology. We present molecular and mechanistic evidence that both biological and physical barriers, protein function, specific immunity, and inflammatory processes are compromised by hyperglycemic events and thus, hyperglycemic events alone should be considered risk factors for numerous human diseases. © 2017 IUBMB Life, 69(3):148-161, 2017.
