Abstract
The Comprehensive Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI) plays a crucial role as an indicator of diets rich in antioxidants. Despite its importance, the clinical significance of CDAI concerning olfactory dysfunction (OD) remains unknown. Our study aims to investigate whether there is an association between CDAI and OD within the general adult population aged 20 years and older. We hypothesized a negative correlation between CDAI and OD in the general adult population. A cross-sectional study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (n = 1624; >20 y of age). A multivariate logistic regression model examined the connection between CDAI and OD. Smooth-fitted curves were used to investigate the nonlinear relationship between CDAI and OD. A threshold effect analysis was then used to pinpoint the inflection point. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on gender and age. Multivariate regression analysis revealed a negative correlation between CDAI and OD. After controlling for variables, the risk of OD in the highest quartile of CDAI was significantly lower than in the lowest quartile (Q1) (odds ratio = 0.64; 95% confidence interval, 0.44–0.92; P = .0148). Stratified analysis indicated a significant association between CDAI and OD in individuals younger than age 60 years and male. This research suggests that increasing the co-ingestion of antioxidants within a moderate range can reduce the incidence of OD.
期刊介绍:
Nutrition Research publishes original research articles, communications, and reviews on basic and applied nutrition. The mission of Nutrition Research is to serve as the journal for global communication of nutrition and life sciences research on diet and health. The field of nutrition sciences includes, but is not limited to, the study of nutrients during growth, reproduction, aging, health, and disease.
Articles covering basic and applied research on all aspects of nutrition sciences are encouraged, including: nutritional biochemistry and metabolism; metabolomics, nutrient gene interactions; nutrient requirements for health; nutrition and disease; digestion and absorption; nutritional anthropology; epidemiology; the influence of socioeconomic and cultural factors on nutrition of the individual and the community; the impact of nutrient intake on disease response and behavior; the consequences of nutritional deficiency on growth and development, endocrine and nervous systems, and immunity; nutrition and gut microbiota; food intolerance and allergy; nutrient drug interactions; nutrition and aging; nutrition and cancer; obesity; diabetes; and intervention programs.
