Sex difference in the association between dietary iron intake and bone mineral density in adolescents aged 12–19: A cross-sectional study
Background
This cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between dietary iron intake and bone mineral density (BMD) in adolescents, exploring how dietary iron intake and other variables collectively influence BMD.
Methods
We analyzed data from participants aged 12–19 years in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted from 2005 to 2010. Multivariate linear regression, incorporating multiple covariates, assessed the association between dietary iron intake and BMD at the lumbar and femoral sites. The analysis was stratified by sex, with separate assessments for males and females, and examined the impact of sex on these outcomes, including interactions between dietary iron intake and BMD at both sites.
Results
The study included 2520 adolescents. Dietary iron intake was positively correlated with BMD at the lumbar spine (β = 0.006, 95 % confidence interval [CI] = 0.001–0.011) and femoral regions (β = 0.008, 95 % CI = 0.002–0.013). However, the strength of this association differed significantly by sex. In males, dietary iron intake was positively associated with lumbar (β = 0.006, 95 % CI = 0.001–0.011) and femoral BMD (β = 0.010, 95 % CI = 0.004–0.017). In contrast, no significant correlation was observed between dietary iron intake and BMD at either site in females (P for interaction = 0.005).
Conclusion
Our findings suggest that increased dietary iron intake is associated with higher BMD in adolescent males but not in females.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides the reader with a thorough description of theoretical and applied aspects of trace elements in medicine and biology and is devoted to the advancement of scientific knowledge about trace elements and trace element species. Trace elements play essential roles in the maintenance of physiological processes. During the last decades there has been a great deal of scientific investigation about the function and binding of trace elements. The Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology focuses on the description and dissemination of scientific results concerning the role of trace elements with respect to their mode of action in health and disease and nutritional importance. Progress in the knowledge of the biological role of trace elements depends, however, on advances in trace elements chemistry. Thus the Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology will include only those papers that base their results on proven analytical methods.
Also, we only publish those articles in which the quality assurance regarding the execution of experiments and achievement of results is guaranteed.
