Abstract
Background: There are growing concern globally regarding fast food consumption and its related cardiometabolic outcomes. In this study we investigated whether fast food consumption could affect the occurrence of metabolic syndrome after 3-years of follow-up in adults or not. Methods: This longitudinal study was conducted in the framework of Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study on 1476 adults, aged 19-70 years old. The usual intakes of participants were measured using a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire at baseline. Biochemical and anthropometric measurements were assessed at baseline (2006-2008) and 3 years later (2009-2011). Multiple logistic regression models were used to estimate the incidence of the MetS in each quartile of fast food consumption. Results: The mean age of participants was 37.8±12.3 years old, and the mean BMI was 26.0±4.5 kg/m2 at baseline. Participants in the highest quartile of fast food consumption were significantly younger (33.7 vs. 43.4 years, P <0.01). Higher consumption of fast food was accompanied with more increment in serum triglyceride levels after the 3-year follow-up (10.6±2.3 vs. 4.4±2.3 percent in the fourth and first quartile, respectively, P<0.01). After adjustment for all of the potential confounding variables, the risk of metabolic syndrome, in the highest quartile of fast foods compared with the lowest, was 1.85 (95% CI= 1.17-2.95). Conclusion: We demonstrated that higher consumption of fast foods had undesirable effects on metabolic syndrome after 3-years of follow-up in Iranian adults.

Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to identify major dietary patterns in Iranian adults and their associations with the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2DM).

Methods: This nested case-control study was conducted among 698 women and men with a mean age of 43.6 ± 12.0 years in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS). Among participants who were free of T2DM at baseline and developed T2DM during follow-up examinations, individuals with dietary intakes data were considered as cases. Each case was matched to three T2DM free controls on sex, age, and the date of blood drawing. Major dietary patterns were identified using principal component analysis and odds ratios of T2DM were estimated using conditional logistic regression.

Results: In this study, three major dietary patterns were identified. After adjusting for diabetes risk factors, 1-SD increase in score of the dietary pattern characterized by high intake of whole grain, legumes, egg, and red meat (traditional dietary pattern) was associated with reduced risk of T2DM (OR : 0.82; 95% CI: 0.67-0.99).

Conclusion: A whole grain and legumes based dietary pattern may be associated with reduced risk of T2DM in Iranian population.
