We used dietary data from 348 participants in the Norkost 4 pilot study, collected through two non-consecutive 24-h dietary recalls.

Plant-based diets were measured by an overall plant-based diet index (PDI), healthful plant-based diet index (hPDI), and unhealthful plant-based diet index (uPDI) based on three 24-hour recalls. Trajectories of PDI, hPDI, and uPDI (2004 to 2011) were identified using group-based trajectory modeling. The associations between trajectories of PDIs and the risk of new-onset hypertension were estimated using Cox proportional hazard models.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>We identified three trajectories for PDI, two for hPDI, and four for uPDI among the 2853 participants with a mean follow-up of 9.6 years. Compared with the PDI \"low and stable\" class, the PDI \"high and decreasing\" class had a 23% decreased risk (HR: 0.77; 95% CI: 0.62-0.95) of hypertension. There was no significant association with PDI \"low and increasing\" class. Compared with the hPDI \"low and stable\" class, the hPDI \"high and stable\" class had a 24% decreased risk (HR: 0.76; 95%CI: 0.64-0.91). For uPDI trajectories, compared with the \"low and decreasing\" class, the \"high and increasing,\" \"high and stable,\" and \"low and increasing\" classes had increased risks of 43% (HR: 1.43; 95% CI: 1.06-1.94), 77% (HR: 1.77; 95% CI: 1.26-2.49), and 72% (HR: 1.72; 95% CI: 1.26-2.33), respectively.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>This study underscores the importance of maintaining high intakes of healthful plant-based diets and low intakes of unhealthful plant-based diets overtime for hypertension prevention.</p>","PeriodicalId":19203,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition Journal","volume":"23 1","pages":"155"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11613601/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142770708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
