Dietary flavonoid intake and frailty in middle-aged and older U.S. adults with prediabetes or diabetes: A population-based study.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between flavonoids and frailty in individuals with prediabetes or diabetes remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between dietary flavonoid intake and frailty risk in U.S. adults with prediabetes or diabetes. This study used data from the 2007-2008, 2009-2010, and 2017-2018 cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Dietary flavonoid intake was assessed via 24-hour dietary recalls, and frailty was evaluated using a 53-item frailty index. Multivariate-adjusted logistic regression models were employed to assess the association between dietary flavonoid intake and frailty risk. Restricted cubic spline models were used to evaluate the potential non-linear relationships. The study enrolled a total of 2558 adults (aged ≥ 40 years)
