Adiposity indices mediate the association between dietary inflammatory index and type 2 diabetes risk in women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at a significantly increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes after childbirth. However, studies on the impact of dietary factors on the postpartum endocrine metabolism of women with prior GDM, as well as the underlying mechanisms, remain relatively limited. This study aims to investigate the association and underlying pathways between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and the subsequent development of type 2 diabetes in women with prior GDM, and to help identify high-risk populations.

Methods

The sample included 788 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2007 to 2018. Multivariate logistic regression was utilized to examine the correlation of DII with diabetes
