Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) may play a role in fracture, but studies have been largely confined to estimates of dietary intake.
We aimed to examine associations between fatty acids measured in late life and fish-oil consumption in early life, midlife, and late life with osteoporotic fracture risk.
Osteoporotic fractures were determined from medical records over 5-9 y of follow-up in men and women aged 66-96 y. Data were analyzed from 1438 participants including 898 participants who were randomly selected from the Age, Gene/Environment Susceptibility Study, which is an observational study, and 540 participants with incident fracture. Plasma phospholipid fatty acids were assessed by using gas chromatography. Fish-oil consumption was assessed by using validated questionnaires as never (referent), less than daily, or daily. HRs and 95% CIs adjusted for age, education, height, weight, diabetes, physical activity, and medications were estimated by using Cox regression.
In men, the highest tertile of PUFAs, n-3 (ω-3), and eicosapentaenoic acid were associated with decreased fracture risk [HRs (95% CIs): 0.60 (95% CI: 0.41, 0.89), 0.66 (0.45, 0.95), and 0.59 (0.41, 0.86), respectively]. In women, PUFAs tended to be inversely associated with fracture risk (P-trend = 0.06), but tertiles 2 and 3 were not independently associated with risk. Tertile 2 of n-6 and arachidonic acid was associated with fracture risk in women [HRs (95% CIs): 1.43 (1.10, 1.85) and 1.42 (1.09, 1.85), respectively]. Daily fish-oil consumption in late life was associated with lower fracture risk in men (HR: 0.64; 95% CI: 0.45, 0.91). Daily fish-oil consumption in midlife was associated with lower fracture risk in women (HR: 0.75; 95% CI: 0.58, 0.98).
Greater PUFA concentrations may be associated with lower osteoporotic fracture risk in older adults, particularly in men. Critical time periods for n-3 fatty acid consumption may differ by sex.
多不饱和脂肪酸(PUFAs)可能在骨折中发挥作用,但研究大多局限于膳食摄入量的估计。
我们旨在研究晚年测量的脂肪酸与早年、中年和晚年鱼油摄入量与骨质疏松性骨折风险之间的关联。
通过对66 - 96岁男性和女性5 - 9年随访期的医疗记录确定骨质疏松性骨折情况。对1438名参与者的数据进行分析,其中包括从年龄、基因/环境易感性研究(一项观察性研究)中随机选取的898名参与者以及540名新发骨折参与者。采用气相色谱法评估血浆磷脂脂肪酸。通过使用经过验证的问卷评估鱼油摄入量,分为从不(参照组)、少于每日或每日摄入。采用Cox回归估计校正年龄、教育程度、身高、体重、糖尿病、身体活动和药物治疗后的风险比(HRs)及95%可信区间(CIs)。
在男性中,PUFAs、n - 3(ω - 3)和二十碳五烯酸最高三分位数与骨折风险降低相关[HRs(95% CIs)分别为:0.60(95% CI:0.41,0.89)、0.66(0.45,0.95)和0.59(0.41,0.86)]。在女性中,PUFAs倾向于与骨折风险呈负相关(P趋势 = 0.06),但第二和第三三分位数与风险无独立关联。n - 6和花生四烯酸的第二三分位数与女性骨折风险相关[HRs(95% CIs)分别为:1.43(1.10,1.85)和1.42(1.09,1.85)]。晚年每日摄入鱼油与男性较低的骨折风险相关(HR:0.64;95% CI:0.45,0.91)。中年每日摄入鱼油与女性较低的骨折风险相关(HR:0.75;95% CI:0.58,0.98)。
较高的PUFA浓度可能与老年人尤其是男性较低的骨质疏松性骨折风险相关。n - 3脂肪酸摄入的关键时期可能因性别而异。
