Introduction: To identify a dietary
pattern predictive of visceral adiposity index (VAI), using reduced rank
regression, and to examine its associations with cardiometabolic risks in the
PCOS women. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was conducted
on 53 PCOS women and 167 age-matched healthy women from the population of
Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study. Dietary intakes were collected using a
semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. The associations of dietary
pattern with cardiometabolic risks were investigated by Pearson's correlation
and linear regression. Results: In this study, a positively correlated
VAI dietary pattern, characterized by high consumption of fried vegetables,
vegetable oils (except for olive oil), fast foods and low consumption of
dairy, and cruciferous vegetables was identified. The dietary pattern was
correlated with triglycerides (rcontrols=0.32, rPCOS=0.41), triglycerides/HDL-C
ratio (rcontrols=0.35, rPCOS=0.44) and HDL-C (rcontrols=-0.22, rPCOS=-0.26) in
both groups. The pattern was also positively correlated with waist
circumference, total cholesterol (TC), LDL-C and systolic blood pressure in the
controls. After adjustment for age and BMI, dietary pattern was associated with
triglycerides (βcontrol=0.22, p=0.003 βPCOS=0.48, P=0.001) and
triglycerides/HDL-C ratio (βcontrol= 0.23, P=0.002 βPCOS= 0.52, P=0.001) in
both groups. The dietary pattern was inversely associated with HDL-C in both
groups, but the association was attenuated by adjusting for age and BMI in the PCOS
group. Conclusion: High adherence to the dietary pattern was associated
with cardiometabolic risks in controls and to a lesser degree in the PCOS
group. |
