Association between dietary inflammatory index and adolescent myopia based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.

ABSTRACT: The prevalence of adolescent myopia is remarkably increasing. Previous studies have indicated that an unhealthy diet is a risk factor for myopia. However, the link between diet-related inflammation and myopia is unclear. To explore their correlation, we used dietary inflammation index (DII) that is a parameter to quantify the inflammatory potential of diet, to reveal the relationship between DII and myopia in adolescents. We extracted sociodemographic data, information of diets and eye refractive status of adolescents from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for period 1999-2008. Dietary intake data was used to calculate DII scores, which were then categorized into quartiles. Multivariable regression models and subgroup analyses were conducted to investigate the assoc
