The relationship between dietary phytochemical index and novel anthropometric indices and the severity of diabetic foot ulcers in adults with type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Research on the relationship between dietary phytochemical intake and the anthropometric indices as well as the diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) remains inconsistent. We aimed to investigate the associations of dietary phytochemical index (DPI) with the novel anthropometric indices and the severity of DFUs.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 339 adults with type 2 diabetes.

Nutrient patterns and risk of cataract: a case-control study.

Aim: To assess the relation between nutrient patterns and cataract risk.

Methods: This is a hospital-based case-control study with 97 cataract patients and 198 matched controls. Dietary consumption was collected through a valid food frequency questionnaire (FFQ).
