Abstract
Objectives: Prostate cancer is the most common carcinoma among men worldwide. To elaborate the effect of dietary quality on prostate-specific antigen (PSA), we investigated the association between Health Eating Index-2015 (HEI-2015) and PSA concentration from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Methods: This cross-sectional analysis of men aged 40 years and older was enrolled from the year 2001-2004. Weighted multivariable logistic and linear regression models were employed to evaluate the association between the HEI-2015 and PSA level.
Results: A total of 1,467 males were enrolled in the study. The results demonstrated that a higher HEI-2015 score was associated with a lower PSA level in the fully-adjusted model (β = -0.388, 95% Confidence interval (CI) = -0.746 to -0.030, P = 0.030). Specifically, the consumption of seafood and plant proteins group was found to have an inverse correlation with PSA levels (β = -0.049, 95% CI = -0.088 to -0.009, P = 0.020).
Conclusion: Our findings indicate that a higher HEI-2015 score is associated with a reduced risk of PSA among adult men aged 40-55 years in the United States. Furthermore, race, body mass index (BMI), and alcohol drinking may be modifiers of the relationship.
期刊介绍:
Food & Nutrition Research is a peer-reviewed journal that presents the latest scientific research in various fields focusing on human nutrition. The journal publishes both quantitative and qualitative research papers.
Through an Open Access publishing model, Food & Nutrition Research opens an important forum for researchers from academic and private arenas to exchange the latest results from research on human nutrition in a broad sense, both original papers and reviews, including:
* Associations and effects of foods and nutrients on health
* Dietary patterns and health
* Molecular nutrition
* Health claims on foods
* Nutrition and cognitive functions
* Nutritional effects of food composition and processing
* Nutrition in developing countries
* Animal and in vitro models with clear relevance for human nutrition
* Nutrition and the Environment
* Food and Nutrition Education
* Nutrition and Economics
Research papers on food chemistry (focus on chemical composition and analysis of foods) are generally not considered eligible, unless the results have a clear impact on human nutrition.
The journal focuses on the different aspects of nutrition for people involved in nutrition research such as Dentists, Dieticians, Medical doctors, Nutritionists, Teachers, Journalists and Manufacturers in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
