Adherence to the dietary approaches to stop hypertension diet and risk of stroke: A meta-analysis of prospective studies.

ABSTRACT: The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet has been shown to lower the risk of hypertension, but its role in the prevention of stroke remains in debate. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to examine the association between DASH diet and incident stroke.A systematic database search in PubMed and Embase was performed to identify eligible prospective studies. The study-specific relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled using random-effect meta-analysis. Dose-response relationship between DASH diet score and risk of stroke was also assessed.We included 12 prospective cohort studies comprising a total of 548,632 participants, with follow-up duration ranging from 5.7 to 24 years. Compared with lower adherence, higher adherence to the DASH diet was related to a reduced risk of developing stroke (RR 0.88, 95% CI 0.83-0.93). Such a benefit of DASH diet seemed to be greater in the Asian than in the Western populations (P for interaction ?=?.037). Dose-response meta-analysis indicated a linear association of the DASH diet score with stroke (P for nonlinearity?=?.411), and each 4-points increment in the score conferred a risk reduction of 4% (RR 0.96, 95% CI 0.94-0.97) in total stroke events.Our findings suggest that higher adherence to the DASH diet is associated with a decreased risk of stroke.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough previous investigations have proposed an association between Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH)-style diet and lower mortality from chronic diseases, the exposure-response relationship is not clear. The present systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to explore the linear and non-linear dose-response association between adherence to the DASH diet and all-cause and cause-specific mortality.MethodsDatabase search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE for prospective cohort studies investigating the association between adherence to the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet and risk of mortality. Summary hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated with the use of a random-effects model for the linear and nonlinear relationships. The two-stage hierarchical regression model was applied to test the potential non-linear dose-response associations.ResultsThe inclusion criteria were met by 17 studies (13 publications). The scores reported for adherence to the DASH diet in different studies were converted to a conventional scoring method in which the adherence score might range between 8 to 40. The linear analysis revealed that summary HRs were 0.95 (95% CI: 0.94-0.96, I2 = 91.6%, n = 14) for all-cause, 0.96 (95% CI: 0.95-0.98, I2 = 82.4%, n = 12) for CVD, 0.97 (95% CI: 0.96-0.98, I2 = 0.00%, n = 2) for stroke, and 0.97 (95% CI: 0.95-0.98, I2 = 63.7%, n = 12) for cancer mortality per each 5-point increment of adherence to the DASH diet. There was also evidence of non-linear associations between the DASH diet and all-cause and cause-specific mortality as the associations became even more evident when the adherence scores were more than 20 points (P < 0.005).ConclusionEven the modest adherence to the DASH diet is associated with a lower risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality. The higher adherence to the diet also strengthens the risk-reducing association.RegistrationThis review was registered in the international prospective register of systematic reviews (PROSPERO) database (registration ID: CRD42018086500).

Project description:There are established guidelines for recommended dietary intake for hypertension treatment and cardiovascular disease prevention. Evidence is lacking for effective dietary patterns for kidney disease prevention.Prospective cohort study.Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study participants with baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ? 60mL/min/1.73m2 (N=14,882).The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet score was calculated based on self-reported dietary intake of red and processed meat, sweetened beverages, sodium, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and legumes, and low-fat dairy products, averaged over 2 visits.Cases were ascertained based on the development of eGFRs<60mL/min/1.73m2 accompanied by ?25% eGFR decline from baseline, an International Classification of Diseases, Ninth/Tenth Revision code for a kidney disease-related hospitalization or death, or end-stage renal disease from baseline through 2012.3,720 participants developed kidney disease during a median follow-up of 23 years. Participants with a DASH diet score in the lowest tertile were 16% more likely to develop kidney disease than those with the highest score tertile (HR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.07-1.26; P for trend < 0.001), after adjusting for sociodemographics, smoking status, physical activity, total caloric intake, baseline eGFR, overweight/obese status, diabetes status, hypertension status, systolic blood pressure, and antihypertensive medication use. Of the individual components of the DASH diet score, high red and processed meat intake was adversely associated with kidney disease and high nuts, legumes, and low-fat dairy products intake was associated with reduced risk for kidney disease.Potential measurement error due to self-reported dietary intake and lack of data for albuminuria.Consuming a DASH-style diet was associated with lower risk for kidney disease independent of demographic characteristics, established kidney risk factors, and baseline kidney function. Healthful dietary patterns such as the DASH diet may be beneficial for kidney disease prevention.

Project description:BackgroundHypertension is a major cause of cardiovascular disease. The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet lowers blood pressure (BP). However, adherence is typically low. Mindfulness training adapted to improving health behaviors that lower BP could improve DASH adherence, in part through improved interoceptive awareness relevant to dietary consumption. The primary objective of the MB-BP trial was to evaluate effects of the Mindfulness-Based Blood Pressure Reduction (MB-BP) program on interoceptive awareness. Secondary objectives assessed whether MB-BP impacts DASH adherence, and explored whether interoceptive awareness mediates DASH dietary changes.MethodsParallel-group phase 2 randomized clinical trial conducted from June 2017-November 2020 with 6 months follow-up. Data analyst was blinded to group allocation. Participants had elevated unattended office BP (≥120/80 mmHg). We randomized 201 participants to MB-BP (n=101) or enhanced usual care control (n=100). Loss-to-follow-up was 11.9%. Outcomes were the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA; range 0-5) score, and the DASH adherence score (range 0-11) assessed via a 163-item Food Frequency Questionnaire.ResultsParticipants were 58.7% female, 81.1% non-Hispanic white, with mean age 59.5 years. Regression analyses demonstrated that MB-BP increased the MAIA score by 0.54 (95% CI: 0.35,0.74; p<.0001) at 6 months follow-up vs. control. MB-BP increased the DASH score by 0.62 (95% CI: 0.13,1.11; p=0.01) at 6 months vs. control, in participants with poor DASH adherence at baseline.ConclusionsA mindfulness training program adapted to improving health behaviors that lower BP improved interoceptive awareness and DASH adherence. MB-BP could support DASH dietary adherence in adults with elevated BP.Clinical trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT03859076 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03859076; MAIA) and NCT03256890 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03256890; DASH diet adherence).
