Dietary patterns and risk of systemic lupus erythematosus in women.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:Dietary intake is a complex exposure and a potential risk factor for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) due to its impact on lipid and glucose metabolism, oxidative stress, and the intestinal microbiome. We aimed to test whether a prudent dietary pattern is associated with a lower risk of SLE, and whether a Western dietary pattern is associated with a higher risk of SLE. METHODS:We prospectively investigated two dietary patterns and SLE risk among women in the Nurses' Health Study (NHS, 1984-2014) and Nurses' Health Study II (NHSII, 1991-2015). Food frequency questionnaires were completed every four years. Congruent with prior work in NHS and NHSII, we derived two separate dietary patterns (prudent and Western) using principal component analysis within each cohort. Incident SLE was confirmed by the American College of Rheumatology's 1997 criteria. We estimated hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for SLE by dietary pattern quartiles using Cox models adjusted for time-varying covariates. Models were performed separately in each cohort and results were meta-analyzed. Stratified analyses tested the association of dietary patterns with anti-dsDNA positive SLE and anti-dsDNA negative SLE. RESULTS:We confirmed 82 NHS incident SLE cases and 98 NHSII SLE cases during 3,833,054 person-years of follow-up. A higher (healthier) prudent dietary pattern score was not associated with SLE risk (meta-analyzed HRQ4 versus Q1 0.84 [95% CI 0.51, 1.38]). Women with higher (less healthy) Western dietary pattern scores did not have a significantly increased risk for SLE (meta-analyzed HRQ4 versus Q1 1.35 [95% CI 0.77, 2.35]). Results were similar after further adjustment for body mass index. Incident anti-dsDNA positive SLE and anti-dsDNA negative SLE were not associated with either dietary pattern. CONCLUSION:We did not observe a relationship between prudent or Western dietary pattern score and risk of SLE.

Project description:ObjectiveThrombosis is a serious complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We investigated whether genetic variants implicated in thrombosis pathways are associated with thrombosis among 2 ethnically diverse SLE cohorts.MethodsOur discovery cohort consisted of 1698 patients with SLE enrolled in the University of California, San Francisco, Lupus Genetics Project and our replication cohort included 1361 patients with SLE enrolled in the PROFILE cohort. Patients fulfilled American College of Rheumatology SLE criteria, and data relevant to thrombosis were available. Thirty-three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) previously shown to be associated with risk of deep venous thrombosis in the general population or implicated in thrombosis pathways were genotyped and tested for association with thrombosis in bivariate allelic analyses. SNP with p < 0.1 in the bivariate analyses were further tested in multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for age, sex, disease duration, antiphospholipid antibody status, smoking, nephritis, and medications.ResultsIn the discovery cohort, 23% of patients with SLE experienced a thrombotic event. SNP in the following genes demonstrated association with thrombosis risk overall in the discovery or replication cohorts and were assessed using metaanalytic methods: factor V Leiden (FVL) rs6025 (OR 1.85, p = 0.02) and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) rs1801133 (OR 0.75, p = 0.04) in whites, and fibrinogen gamma (FGG) rs2066865 (OR 1.91, p = 0.01) in Hispanic Americans. SNP in these genes showed association with venous thrombosis risk in whites: MTHFR rs1801131 (OR 1.51, p = 0.01), MTHFR rs1801133 (OR 0.70, p = 0.04), FVL rs6025 (OR 2.69, p = 0.002), and FGG rs2066865 (OR 1.49, p = 0.02) in whites. A SNP in FGG rs2066865 (OR 2.19, p = 0.003) demonstrated association with arterial thrombosis risk in Hispanics.ConclusionOur results implicate specific genetic risk factors for thrombosis in patients with SLE and suggest that genetic risk for thrombosis differs across ethnic groups.
