A study to evaluate the link between long-term fish intake and health status in a sample of elderly adults was undertaken.
MATERIAL/METHODS: Three hundred men and women from Cyprus, 142 from Mitilini, and 100 from Samothraki islands (aged 65 to 100 years) were enrolled in this study during 2005-2006. Dietary habits (including fish consumption) were assessed through a food frequency questionnaire. Among various factors, fasting blood glucose, arterial blood pressures, and blood lipids were measured.
Sixty-one percent of the participants reported that they had consumed fish approximately once a week (mean intake: 1.9+/-1.2 servings/week) for a mean period of 30 years. After adjusting for various confounders, fish intake was inversely associated with systolic blood pressure (p=0.026), fasting glucose (p<0.001), total serum cholesterol (p=0.012), and triglyceride levels (p=0.024). Multinomial logistic regression revealed that a decrease of 100 g per week in fish intake was associated with a 19% (95%CI: 1-41) higher likelihood of having one additional cardiovascular risk factor (i.e. hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, obesity).
The results indicate that long-term fish intake is associated with reduced levels of the most common cardiovascular disease risk markers in a cohort of elderly people.
开展了一项研究，以评估老年成年人样本中长期鱼类摄入量与健康状况之间的联系。
材料/方法：2005年至2006年期间，招募了300名来自塞浦路斯的男性和女性、142名来自米蒂利尼的男性和女性以及100名来自萨莫色雷斯岛的男性和女性（年龄在65至100岁之间）参与本研究。通过食物频率问卷评估饮食习惯（包括鱼类消费情况）。测量了包括空腹血糖、动脉血压和血脂在内的各种因素。
61%的参与者报告称，他们平均每周食用鱼类约一次（平均摄入量：1.9±1.2份/周），持续时间平均为30年。在对各种混杂因素进行调整后，鱼类摄入量与收缩压（p=0.026）、空腹血糖（p<0.001）、总血清胆固醇（p=0.012）和甘油三酯水平（p=0.024）呈负相关。多项逻辑回归显示，鱼类摄入量每周减少100克与出现另外一种心血管危险因素（即高血压、高胆固醇血症、糖尿病、肥胖）的可能性增加19%（95%置信区间：1%-41%）相关。
结果表明，在一组老年人中，长期鱼类摄入量与最常见的心血管疾病风险标志物水平降低有关。
