Integrating Dietary Inflammatory Index and Triglyceride-Glucose Body Mass Index for Mortality Association in Hypertension.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Diet-related inflammation and metabolic dysfunction may influence long-term outcomes in hypertension.

Objectives

The objective of the study was to evaluate whether the DII (Dietary Inflammatory Index) and TyG-BMI (triglyceride-glucose body mass index), individually and jointly, are associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in adults with hypertension.

Methods

The authors analyzed 8,024 hypertensive adults (≥18 years) from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2001 to 2018 with a median follow-up of 9.91 years. DII was calculated from 27 nutrient intakes (24-hour recalls) and categorized into tertiles; TyG-BMI was derived from fasting triglycerides, fasting glucose, and BMI.

Results

Proinflammatory diets were associated with hi
