<p>The Relationship Between the Dietary Inflammatory Index and Metabolic Syndrome in Ravansar Cohort Study</p>

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the association between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components using data of Ravansar non-communicable diseases (RaNCD) cohort study. Patients and Methods: The present cross-sectional study was performed using the information of 6538 participants in the RaNCD study in Iran. A validated 125-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was used to acquire DII scores. MetS was defined based on national cholesterol education program-adult treatment panel III (NCEP-ATP III) criteria. The association between DII and MetS and its components was investigated by the logistic regression model using STATA software. Results: A significant association was found between DII and MetS (OR trend : 1.08, 95% CI: 1.01-1.15, P =0.017), triglyceride (TG) (OR trend : 1.06, 95% CI: 1.00-1.12, P=0.030), fasting blood glucose (FBG) (OR trend : 1.10, 95% CI: 1.01-1.20, P=0.018) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (OR trend : 1.07, 95% CI: 1.02-1.12, P= 0.005) after adjustment for all covariates. Also, there was a significant relationship between DII score and waist circumference (WC) (OR trend : 1.07, 95% CI: 1.01-1.14, P=0.016). Conclusion: Higher DII score (a pro-inflammatory diet) had a significant association with the risk of MetS and its components, even after adjustment for different potential confounding factors including socio-demographic data and lifestyle habits. However, further longitudinal investigations with more dietary parameters are needed to elucidate the role of the pro-inflammatory diet in the etiology of MetS.

Anti-inflammatory diet consumption reduced fatty liver indices: Finding from a large cohort study in the Kurdish population

“…On the other hand, associations between DII and metabolic syndrome (MetS) components including high TG and low HDL-C concentrations, high blood pressure, glucose intolerance, central obesity, CVD and liver cancer have been reported [2,[26][27][28]. Overall, the studies mentioned and our nding consistent the hypothesis that diet an important factor in the in ammation process [13,26].…”

“…Previous studies have shown that healthy food is inversely related to in ammation [1,2] and also several trial and metaanalysis studies have reported the association between enough intake of vitamin C, vitamin E, antioxidants and ber with lower levels of in ammatory markers [3,4,6,7]. On the other hand, associations between DII and metabolic syndrome (MetS) components including high TG and low HDL-C concentrations, high blood pressure, glucose intolerance, central obesity, CVD and liver cancer have been reported [2,[26][27][28]. Overall, the studies mentioned and our nding consistent the hypothesis that diet an important factor in the in ammation process [13,26].…”

Association between Dietary Inflammatory Index, Dietary Patterns, Plant-Based Dietary Index and the Risk of Obesity

“…Many studies have examined the association between DII, dietary patterns or PDI with metabolic syndromes [ 9 , 10 ] or chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases [ 11 , 12 ], diabetes [ 12 , 13 ] and certain types of cancers [ 14 ]. However, evidence on the association between the DII, PDI or dietary patterns and obesity prevention are limited, particularly in Australia.…”
