Association Between the Dietary Inflammatory Index and the Risk of Fracture in Chinese Adults: Longitudinal Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chronic inflammation plays a crucial role in tissue injury, osteoporosis, and fracture. The dietary inflammatory index (DII) is a tool for assessing the potential for inflammation in the diet. However, the association between the DII and fractures remains controversial from previous studies.

Objective

We aimed to explore the correlation between the DII and fracture risk in Chinese adults.

Methods

We included 11,999 adults (5519 men and 6480 women) who were a part of the China Health and Nutrition Survey (1997-2015) prospective cohort. A 3-day, 24-hour meal review method was used to calculate the DII score. The fractures were identified using a questionnaire. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs for fractu
