Dietary inflammatory index and cardiovascular risk and mortality: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally, and chronic inflammation is pivotal in CVDs development. Pro-inflammatory diets may exacerbate inflammation and thus increase CVDs risk. The Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) is a validated measure of the inflammatory potential of diet. This updated systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to clarify the association between DII and CVDs incidence and mortality.

Methods

A comprehensive search was conducted in Pub Med, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) until February 2025. Study quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Risk ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were pooled using Review Manager 5
