Association of Red Meat Consumption, Metabolic Markers, and Risk of Cardiovascular Diseases.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The metabolic mechanism of harmful effects of red meat on the cardiovascular system is still unclear. The objective of the present study is to investigate the associations of self-reported red meat consumption with plasma metabolic markers, and of these markers with the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

Methods

Plasma samples of 4,778 participants (3,401 CVD cases and 1,377 controls) aged 30-79 selected from a nested case-control study based on the China Kadoorie Biobank were analyzed by using targeted nuclear magnetic resonance to quantify 225 metabolites or derived traits. Linear regression was conducted to evaluate the effects of self-reported red meat consumption on metabolic markers, which were further compared with the effects of these markers on CVD ris
