The association of dietary approaches to stop hypertension measured by the food frequency questionnaire with metabolic syndrome and some inflammatory biomarkers in adolescents with obesity: a case-control study
Abstract Background Globally, obesity trends are a serious public health concern. Adolescent obesity is associated with cardiometabolic risk and metabolic disorders in adolescence and may persist into adulthood. The current study was designed to explore the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (D...

description | Abstract Background Globally, obesity trends are a serious public health concern. Adolescent obesity is associated with cardiometabolic risk and metabolic disorders in adolescence and may persist into adulthood. The current study was designed to explore the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) in adolescents and its relationship with obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome (MetS), and some inflammatory biomarkers. Methods A total of 90 adolescents with obesity and 90 adolescents with normal weight, participated in the study. Data from a validated 168-item semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire were used to calculate the DASH score. The association of DASH score with cardiometabolic risk factors was estimated using multivariable logistic regression models. To assess the correlation between the DASH score and dietary factor, the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) was used. Results Adolescents with a high DASH score had significantly higher intakes of potassium, magnesium, vitamin C, and vitamin K and lower intakes of sodium compared with those with a low DASH score (P < 0.05 ). There were no significant differences in the DASH score and its components between adolescents with and without metabolic syndrome. Adolescents with metabolic syndrome had significantly higher concentrations of triglycerides, low HDL-C, and high blood pressure compared with those without metabolic syndrome (P < 0.05). There were no significant associations between DASH score and MetS and other cardiometabolic risk factors in crude and multivariate-adjusted models. In addition, the DASH score was positively associated with potassium, magnesium, sodium, vitamins D and C, docosahexaenoic acid, and soluble fiber (P < 0.05). Conclusion In the current study, there was no significant association between adherence to the DASH diet and odds of metabolic syndrome, and other cardiometabolic risk factors in adolescent. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings. Trial registration Ethics approval was obtained from the research ethics committee of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences (IR.TBZMED.REC.1397.179.). |
