“…In a cross-sectional study, the rice-oriented pattern was significantly increased prevalence of dyslipidemia in Korean adults men (OR = 1.58, p for trend = 0.0042, for hypertriglyceridemia, OR = 1.43, p for trend = 0.0015, for low HDL-cholesterol) and women (OR = 1.29, p for trend = 0.0020, for low HDL-cholesterol) using Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey [ 35 ]. Another cross-sectional study showed that “oil, sweet, fish and other vegetables” dietary pattern and “grain, bean, nuts, vegetables and fruits” dietary pattern were lower risk of hypertriglyceridemia prevalence (OR = 0.73, p < 0.001 and OR = 0.88, p = 0.009, respectively) [ 7 ]. The Taiwan cross-sectional study showed similar results to our study, the vegetable-fruits-seafood dietary pattern (high intake of vegetables, vegetables with oil or dressing, fruits, seafood, legumes, soy products, and rice or flour products) decreased hypercholesterolemia risk (OR = 0.89) and dairy-complex carbohydrate dietary pattern (high intake of dairy products, milk, root crops, jam or honey, and whole-grain) decreased hypertriglyceridemia (OR = 0.82) in young and middle-aged Taiwanese [ 8 ].…”
