Association of novel dietary and lifestyle inflammation scores with incidence and progression of coronary artery calcification in middle-late adulthood: a longitudinal cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Dietary patterns and lifestyle factors can influence the intensity of systemic inflammation and, consequently, the development and progression of coronary artery calcification (CAC). This study aimed to explore the relationship between the inflammatory potentials of diet and lifestyle, as captured by novel dietary and lifestyle inflammation scores (DIS and LIS), with CAC incidence and progression.

Methods

We analyzed data on 5949 Black and White men and women ≥ 45 years old participating in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) cohort. Baseline data on diet and lifestyle factors were collected from 2000 to 2002 and used to construct the DIS and LIS, which reflect the overall inflammatory potential of diet and lifestyle.
