Introduction. Sugary beverages consumption (SBC) has amplified globally. SBC is associated with and leads to obesity and chronic diseases, nonetheless the role of SBC in development of autoimmune disorders such as latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) has not been addressed adequately among the different ethnic groups. We conducted this meta-analysis to compare the random effect of SBC intake on the risk of development of LADA. Methods. We scrutinized the MEDLINE database up until January 2019 for articles addressing the association between sugary beverages, coffee consumption and LADA. We found 6 studies all of them addressed the LADA. We have included them in the meta-analysis and compared the random effect of SBC from the uppermost to the lowermost quantiles parallel to the risk of LADA. Results. According to the research conducted, and data extracted, which involved 15027 contributors and 1862 patients with LADA, the participants in the uppermost quantile of SBC intake (used 1-2 servings per day in most cases) were at risk of developing LADA more than those in the lowermost quantile (≤ 1 serving per month) (odds ratio [OR] 1.37 [95% CI 1.23-1.52]). Conclusion. According to the meta-analysis resultsexcessive SBC intake may increase the risk of development of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults. However, no definite conclusions could be drawn due to heterogeneous data from low quality researches and the analysis was based on observational and casecontrol studies only.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
