Editor’s summary
Patients with high cardiovascular disease risk and type 2 diabetes on a Mediterranean diet supplemented with nuts have lower risk of depression than those on a low-fat diet, suggesting nuts have a beneficial effect on mental health in this population.

Editor’s summary
In individuals with high cardiovascular disease risk, eating a Mediterranean diet supplemented with olive oil or nuts reduces diastolic blood pressure (BP) more than a low-fat diet, suggesting the Mediterranean diet could be beneficial for BP control.

Editor’s summary
Moderate consumption of alcohol, specifically wine, is associated with lower incidence of depression in a Mediterranean population, suggesting that those who drink two to seven drinks per week may be less likely to be depressed in comparison to abstainers.

Editor’s summary
A large trial in a Mediterranean population finds an inverse trend between regular nut consumption and mortality in individuals with high cardiovascular risk, and suggests that nuts but not olive oil, may also have a protective effect on premature mortality in individuals.

Editor’s summary
The predictive ability of a screening tool for diabetes is reduced when the proposed new hemoglobin-based criteria are used for diagnosis instead of glucose, suggesting that glucose should be measured to assess diabetes risk using this score.
