Association between total fat and fatty acid intake and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus among Japanese adults: Analysis based on the JACC study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We prospectively examined the association between total fat and fatty acid intake and type 2 diabetes (T2D) among Japanese adults.

Methods

This study was conducted using data from the Japan Collaborative Cohort Study for Evaluation of Cancer Risk (JACC). A validated food frequency questionnaire evaluated the intake of total fat and fatty acids. Diabetes was assessed using self-reported data. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of incident T2D across quintiles of total fat and fatty acid intake after adjusting for potential confounders.

Results

A total of 19,088 non-diabetic participants (age range, 40-79 years) enrolled in the JACC between 1988 and 1990 were included
