Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic (CKM) diseases, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, pose a significant threat to public health. Emerging research increasingly emphasizes the critical role of dietary interventions not only in managing these diseases, but also in their prevention. Although much research has focused on the relationship between single dietary components and health, the current scientific consensus is shifting towards strategies that optimize cardiometabolic health via holistic dietary patterns.
For this Special Issue, we welcome the submission of articles that investigate the impact of diet on cardiometabolic health. We encourage high-quality original research, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses that explore the association of various dietary patterns, nutrients, and functional foods with key CKM-related risk factors, including lipid profiles, glycemic profile, blood pressure, obesity, kidney function, inflammation, and endothelial function. We also welcome the submission of basic research that aims to elucidate the underlying mechanisms behind dietary factors and CKM disease. Our objective is to propel advances in nutritional science that significantly reduce cardiometabolic risks and enhance public health interventions.
