Patterns of protein intake and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes: results from NHANES.

ABSTRACT: We aimed to look at the potential relationship between patterns of protein intake and risk of death in adults with type 2 diabetes. We included 4646 adults with type 2 diabetes participating in NHANES (1999-2018). We estimated intake of proteins from 11 animal- and plant-based food groups and then, used principal component analysis to explore data-driven patterns of protein intake. All-cause mortality was ascertained through linkage to National Death Index until December 31, 2019 (n = 969 deaths). Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Four dietary protein patterns were identified: "healthy" (high in proteins from legumes, fruits, nuts, seeds, and fish and low in red meat protein), "red meat and egg" (high in
