Paper is open access and freely available [1][2]
Quoted conclusion:
> In conclusion, our results provide further evidence that nut
> consumption may reduce the risk of coronary heart
> disease, stroke, cardiovascular disease, total cancer, and all-cause
> mortality, and possibly mortality from diabetes, respiratory
> disease, and infectious disease. In 2013, an estimated
> 4.4 million deaths may be attributable to a nut
> intake below 20 grams per day in North and South
> America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Western Pacific.
> These findings support dietary recommendations
> to increase nut consumption to reduce chronic disease
> risk and mortality.
