Associations of dietary inflammatory index scores and serum inflammatory factors with the risk of osteoporosis: a cross-sectional study from Xinjiang, China.

Background: Previous studies have shown that the inflammatory potential of the diet is associated with a variety of chronic noncommunicable diseases characterized by a chronic low-grade inflammatory response. However, the relationships between dietary inflammatory potential and organismal inflammatory status and osteoporosis have been less studied. This study aimed to investigate the relationships among inflammatory diet, inflammatory state and osteoporosis in the Xinjiang multiethnic population.

Association between Different Types of Plant-Based Diets and Dyslipidemia in Middle-Aged and Elderly Chinese Participants.

Plant-based dietary patterns may reduce the risk of dyslipidemia. However, not all plant-based foods are beneficial, and limited data exist for the Chinese population. We investigated the association between different plant-based dietary indices and the risk of dyslipidemia in a Chinese middle-aged and elderly population.

Urinary Antibiotics and Dietary Determinants in Adults in Xinjiang, West China.

The Xinjiang autonomous region, located in west China, has a unique ethnic structure and a well-developed livestock industry. People in this region have a high risk of exposure to antibiotics, but the exposure level to antibiotics in relation to dietary determinants is unknown. In this study, 18 antibiotics, including four human antibiotics (HAs), four veterinary antibiotics (VAs), and 10 preferred veterinary antibiotics (PVAs) were detected in the urine of approximately half of the 873 adults in Xinjiang, including Han Chinese (24.

Association between abdominal obesity indices and risk of cardiovascular events in Chinese populations with type 2 diabetes: a prospective cohort study.

Background: Waist circumference (WC), visceral adiposity index (VAI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), and Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) are considered surrogate indicators of abdominal fat deposition, but the longitudinal association of these indices with cardiovascular (CV) events in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) remains unclear. Our study aimed to examine the associations between abdominal obesity indices and incident CV events among people with T2D and to compare their predictive performance in risk assessment.

Methods: The present study included 2328 individuals with T2D from the Xinjiang Multi-Ethnic Cohort.
