BACKGROUND AND AIM
The Mediterranean Adequacy Index (MAI) is an overall indicator characterising a diet in comparison with a Reference Mediterranean Diet. We computed the MAI of random samples of men surveyed for their eating habits in the 16 cohorts of the Seven Countries Study, and found that it inversely correlated with the 25-year death rates from coronary heart disease in the 16 cohorts (R = -0.72; p = 0.001). The correlation coefficient was -0.84 (p < 0.001) when the MAI was converted into natural logarithms.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings once again support the association between typical Mediterranean eating habits and protection against coronary heart disease.
背景与目的
地中海充足指数（MAI）是一种与参考地中海饮食相比，用于描述饮食的综合指标。我们计算了七国研究16个队列中接受饮食习惯调查的男性随机样本的MAI，发现其与这16个队列中冠心病25年死亡率呈负相关（R = -0.72；p = 0.001）。当MAI转换为自然对数时，相关系数为-0.84（p < 0.001）。
结论
这些发现再次支持典型地中海饮食习惯与预防冠心病之间的关联。
