“…In the PREvención con DIeta MEDiterránea (PREDIMED) cross-sectional study in Spain [ 20 ], the DII was associated with abdominal obesity in women, even after controlling for adherence to the Mediterranean diet, showing a clear relationship between dietary inflammation and abdominal obesity. In a longitudinal study of Australian adults [ 21 ], more inflammatory diets were associated with an increased risk of hypertension, suggesting that inflammation adversely affects blood vessels and kidneys, leading to hypertension [ 37 ]. In the Luxembourg and Lebanese studies, however, no association was observed between the DII and metabolic risk factors [ 18 , 19 ].…”

“…However, several other prospective and cross-sectional studies from different countries revealed no association between the DII and MetS prevalence [ 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ]. Other studies have reported that the DII is related to only some components of MetS [ 20 , 21 ]. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between the DII and MetS in Korean adults using the most recent nationally representative survey data.…”

Inflammation is thought to be partly responsible for metabolic syndrome (MetS). Recently, dietary inflammatory index (DII) was developed to calculate the overall inflammatory potential of a diet. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between DII and MetS, as well as MetS components, using nationally representative survey data. The study sample consisted of 9291 Korean adults (aged 19–65 years, 3682 men and 5609 women) who participated in the sixth (2013–2015) Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. DII values were calculated using 24-h dietary recall data. Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the association between DII and MetS by sex. In the multivariate logistic regression model, the top DII quartile (Q4), was positively associated with MetS prevalence in men (Q4 vs. Q1, OR = 1.40; 95% CI = 1.06–1.85; p for linear trend = 0.008) and in postmenopausal women (Q4 vs. Q1, OR = 1.67; 95% CI = 1.15–2.44; p for linear trend = 0.008). The top DII quartile was also positively associated with the prevalence of hyperglycemia in men and the prevalence of central obesity in postmenopausal women. Further studies using prospective cohorts are needed to identify the causal relationship between DII and MetS.

Hypertension is a major global health challenge, affecting more than 1 billion people worldwide, and this is projected to increase in 1.56 billion by 2025. 1,2 Uncontrolled hypertension is currently an important contributor for heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, and premature mortality. 3,4 Globally, hypertension is responsible for 13% of premature deaths in developed and developing countries. 3,5 According to an Iranian national survey in 2011, 25.6% of adults, aged 25-70 years, had hypertension. 6 Also, the crude incidence rate of hypertension was 33.6 per 1000 person-years in Iranian population, over a decade long follow-up. 7 A wide variety of genetic and environmental factors predispose individuals to hypertension; although, contribution of genetic factors has been shown to be small. 8 According to available evidence, a number of lifestyle behaviors including, smoking, diabetes, being obese or overweight, high cholesterol, excess salt intake, and physical inactivity play a greater role in developing hypertension. 9,10 Therefore, early detection of individuals at high risk for hypertension and proper management of these modifiable risk factors is important for primary prevention of hypertension. 9 One approach to investigate the contribution of environmental factors in disease development is study of cohabiting couples because such spouses usually are not genetically related but share a common living environment, pool resources, eat together, and share a social network. 11,12 A large number of epidemiological studies demonstrated significant positive spousal concordance for diabetes mellitus (DM), 13-16 and the majority of main coronary risk factors including diastolic blood pressure (DBP), triglycerides (TG), total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TC and LDL-C), AbstractWe investigated the association between metabolic risk factors in one spouse with incident hypertension in the other. Study sample included 1528 men and 1649 women aged ≥20 years from the Tehran lipid and glucose study with information on body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), and dyslipidemia. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were estimated for the association of spousal metabolic factors and incident hypertension among men and women separately. A total of 604 and 566 cases of incident hypertension were observed in men and women, respectively. Among men, spousal DM was associated with a 40% (CI: 1.07-1.83) excess risk of hypertension after adjusting for the men's own and their spouse's risk factors including BMI, DM, smoking, and physical activity level. Among women, spousal DM was associated with more than two times (2.11, 1.69-2.63) higher risk of hypertension. After further adjustment for the women's own and their spouse's risk factors, the association was attenuated and remained marginally significant (1.25, 0.99-1.58; P value = .053).Having a spouse with DM increases an individual's risk of hypertension, which raises the possibility of using pre...

“…The DII has been shown to be associated with diseases such as diabetes (21), obesity (22), asthma (23), cancer (24,25), myocardial infarction, stroke and CVD mortality (26)(27)(28). Some prior studies have prospectively assessed the in ammatory potential of the diet in relation to hypertension or blood pressure (29,30), both nding a positive association between the DII and hypertension diagnosis, or blood pressure increases, but did not report the shape of the association. Excess body weight is a major risk factor for hypertension, and it is associated with low rate chronic in ammation (31), however, it is still unknown whether BMI is an effect modi er for the reported association between DII and hypertension.…”

Introduction: Previous studies have identified a positive association between the inflammatory potential of the diet and hypertension. It is not known if BMI is an effect modifier for this association, nor if the association is dose-respondent. This study aimed to assess the association between the dietary inflammatory index (DII) and the risk of hypertension, and assess any effect modification from BMI.Methods: Data from the E3N cohort study, a French prospective population-based study initiated in 1990 was used. From the women in the study, we included those who completed a detailed diet history questionnaire, and who did not have prevalent hypertension or cardiovascular disease at baseline, resulting in 46,652 women. The adapted DII was assessed with data from the dietary questionnaire. Hypertension cases were self-reported and verified through a drug-reimbursement database. Cox proportional hazard models were used to calculate hazard ratios. Spline regression was used to determine any dose-respondent relationship.Results: During 884,267 person-years, 13,183 cases of incident hypertension were identified. The median DII in the population was slightly pro-inflammatory (DII = + 0.44). A highly pro-inflammatory diet (DII > 3.0) was associated with a slight increase in hypertension risk (HRQ1-Q5 = 1.07 [1.02: 1.13]). Evidence was observed for effect modification from BMI, with associations strongest amongst women in the 18.5 - 21.0 BMI range (HRQ1-Q5 = 1.17 [1.06: 1.29]). A weak dose-respondent relationship was observed.Conclusion: Evidence for a weak association between DII and hypertension was observed. Associations were stronger amongst healthy-lean women.
