Abstract:
Objective To identify and characterize dietary patterns in a middle-aged Guangzhou population and study associations between these patterns and plasma lipids.Method 555 subjects(98 men and 367 women) were recruited in Guangzhou.Subjects completed a detailed health and lifestyle questionnaire and provided a fasting blood sample for plasma lipids test.Dietary intake was assessed using a food-frequency questionnaire.Dietary patterns were assessed by K-means cluster Analysis.Results Three dietary patterns were identified.In Cluster 1,the subjects took higher intakes of cereals(301.9?97.2) g/d,and the lower intakes of leafy vegetables(275.9?92.7)g/d,non-leafy vegetables(139.4?84.7) g/d,fruits(122.1?73.3) g/d,eggs(18.3?17.3) g/d and milk(50.0?93.2) ml/d.In Cluster 2,they was characterized by significantly higher intakes of dried legumes and legume products(28.5?31.1) g/d,eggs(30.2?18.3) g/d,milk(217.1?152.0) ml/d,nuts(7.0?13.9) g/d,fruits(345.0?151.8) g/d and non-leafy vegetables(280.3?153)g/d,and lower intakes of cereals(269.1?98.0) g/d.In Cluster 3,the people took higher intakes of leafy vegetables(540.6?158.3) g/d and fish(42.9?42.2) g/d,and the lower intakes of dried legumes and legume products(12.7?20.9) g/d,nuts(4.9?14.7) g/d.There were significant differences in LDL between clusters.Conclusion Dietary pattern of Cluster 2 could help to maintain plasma lipids in normal range.
