The Dietary Inflammatory Index and Current Wheeze Among Children and Adults in the United States.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:A proinflammatory diet may increase allergic airway inflammation by affecting innate and adaptive immune responses. OBJECTIVE:In this study, we examine the relation between the diet's inflammatory potential, measured by the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII), and current asthma, current wheeze, and lung function in U.S. children and adults. METHODS:We analyzed data from 8,175 children (aged 6-17 years) and 22,294 adults (aged 18-79 years) who participated in the 2007-2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The DII was calculated by nutrient intake based on 24-hour dietary recalls, and normalized as per 1,000 calories of food consumed to account for total energy intake. Multivariable regression models were used for the analysis of the DII and current asthma, current wheeze, and lung function measures. RESULTS:Higher DII (a proinflammatory diet) was associated with current wheeze among adults (eg, odds ratio [OR] for quartile 4 vs 1, OR = 1.41, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.17-1.70; Ptrend < .01) and among children with high fractional exhaled nitric oxide (a marker of eosinophilic airway inflammation; OR = 2.38, 95% CI = 1.13-5.02; Ptrend = .05). The DII also was associated with decreased forced expiratory volume in 1 second and forced vital capacity in adults without asthma or wheezing. The DII was not associated with lung function in children or current asthma in either age group. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings suggest that a proinflammatory diet, assessed by the DII, increases the odds of current wheeze in adults and children with allergic (atopic) wheeze. These results further support testing dietary interventions as part of the management of asthma.

Project description:BackgroundKlotho is a hormone that emerges as an antiaging biomarker. However, the influence of the dietary pattern's inflammatory potential on serum Klotho levels in human populations, especially in a general adult population, remains unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the dietary inflammatory index (DII) and serum Klotho concentrations in individuals living in the United States. METHODS : From the 2007-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database, data of participants who completed the full 24-h dietary history and underwent serum Klotho testing were analyzed. The association between DII and serum Klotho concentrations was estimated using multivariable linear regression models. We also conducted segmented regression model to examine the threshold effect of DII on serum Klotho concentrations.ResultsA total of 10,928 participants were included, with a median serum Klotho concentration of 805.20 pg/mL (IQR: 657.58 - 1001.12) and a median DII of 1.43 (IQR: - 0.16 - 2.82). Multivariable regression showed that participants with high DII scores were associated with low serum Klotho concentrations; when classifying DII into quartiles, after full adjustment, participants in DII quartiles 3 and 4 showed a decrease in Klotho levels (25.27 and 12.44 pg/ml, respectively) compared with those in the lowest quartile (quartile 1) (95% CI: - 41.80, - 8.73 and - 29.83, 4.95, respectively; P for trend = 0.036). The segmented regression showed that the turning point value of DII was - 1.82 (95% CI: - 2.32, - 0.80). A 1-unit increase in DII was significantly associated with lower Klotho levels by - 33.05 (95% CI: - 52.84, - 13.27; P = 0.001) when DII ranges from - 5.18 to - 1.82; however, the relationship was not significant when DII ranges from - 1.82 to 5.42 (P > 0.05). Furthermore, stratified analyses indicated that the observed associations between DII and serum Klotho concentration were stronger among those aged ≥ 56 years, those with normal weight, and those without chronic kidney disease (P for interaction = 0.003, 0.015, and 0.041, respectively).ConclusionsIn summary, we indicated that there was a dose-response relationship between DII and serum Klotho concentrations, suggesting that adhering to an anti-inflammatory diet has beneficial effects on aging and health by increasing the serum Klotho concentration.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:Dental caries experience, which affects 91% of US adults, is a consequence of a carious process influenced by diet. Although individual foods have been implicated, we hypothesized that dietary patterns might be important predictors of caries presence. METHODS:We analysed data from 4467 people ≥18 years old participating in the 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a nationally representative sample of the US population. Data from 24-hour dietary recalls were classified into standard food categories and reduced to three dietary patterns using principal components (PCs) analysis. We used regression to model the log-transformed decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMFT) score and the prevalence of any caries experience by quartiles of PC scores, controlling for potential confounders. Dietary patterns differed by age with respect to dental caries so 18-30-year-olds (n = 1074) and >30-year-olds (n = 3393) were analysed separately. RESULTS:Similar dietary patterns existed among individuals aged 18-30 and >30 years, but the prevalence of DMFT score >0 and the median of DMFT was greater in those >30:78.7% (95% CI: 76.1, 81.3) vs 92.6% (95% CI: 91.4, 93.7) and 4 (95% CI: 4, 5) vs 12 DMFT (95% CI: 11, 13), respectively. In those 18-30, no dietary pattern was associated with greater prevalence or severity of dental caries experience. Among those >30, the prevalence of DMFT>0 was higher by 2% for those in each subsequent quartile of a diet high in sugar-sweetened beverages and sandwiches (adjusted PR: 1.02, 95% CI: 1.001, 1.03)-thus, the prevalence of dental caries experience was 6% higher among those in the uppermost quartile than in the lowest quartile. For every subsequent quartile in the same pattern, there was a 1.98% higher (95% CI: 0.15, 3.85) DMFT score. However, analysis using the two strongest loading food groups from any of the PCs did not identify any predictors of caries experience. CONCLUSIONS:Dietary patterns were associated with the prevalence of dental caries experience, with differing findings by age. Although effect sizes were small, the population impact may be substantial. While food groups high in sugar were associated with caries prevalence and severity, associations were more apparent in the context of overall diet. Prospective studies are needed to confirm whether particular dietary patterns are causally related to the development of dental caries.
