Interactions between DASH-style diet and ADIPOQ and ARL15 genes polymorphisms on blood pressure and central obesity in Iranian adults by Mehdi Mollahosseini, Zeinab Yazdanpanah, Azadeh Nadjarzadeh, Masoud Mirzaei, Seyed Mehdi Kalantar, Hamid Reza Ashrafzadeh, Khadijeh Mirzaei, Hassan Mozaffari-Khosravi

“…Unlike for the G allele carriers of rs1501299, high adherence to the DASH dietary pattern was related to the lower diastolic blood pressure (DBP; P-interaction = 0.014) and systolic blood pressure (SBP; P-interaction = 0.051) in the participants with TT genotype. Moreover, in individuals with the AA genotype of rs6450176 SNP, adherence to this diet was associated with lower SBP (P-interaction = 0.012), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR; P-interaction = 0.026) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR; P-interaction = 0.040), while in G allele carriers, the mean of these items was greater in individuals with high adherence to the DASH diet. …”
