[Study on the relationship between dietary patterns and metabolic syndrome and its components in Xinjiang Uygur population].

OBJECTIVE

To analysis the dietary patterns and their relevance with MS and its components in the Uygur adults in Kashi of Xinjiang.

METHODS

Used multi-stage random cluster sampling method, investigated the adult residents of Uighur aged over 18 years old in one county and one townships / street of three city in Kashi, may and six month in 2013 year. 24 hour dietary recall method for three consecutive days and food weighing method was used to collect the dietary intake of individual and family. The application of factor analysis to establish the dietary patterns and analysis, used the factor analysis method to establish the dietary pattern and analyzed the relevance between the dietary patterns and MS and its components.

RESULTS

The named of the four main dietary patterns of adult residents in Kashi area, the traditional dietary patterns, the western dietary patterns. The meat eating patterns and the Uygur specific dietary pattern. The main dietary pattern is the traditional model of the diet. The western dietary pattern were negative correlationwith WHR and TC(r_(WHR)=- 0. 361, r_(TC)=- 0. 145) before and after the adjustment of covariates. The meat eating pattern were positive correlation between BMI and WHR and FPG( rBMI= 0. 128, r_(WHR)= 0. 149; r_(FPG)= 0. 083). The positive correlation between the Uygur specific pattern of diet and the fasting blood glucose(r_(FPG)=- 0. 112). There was no correlation between the traditional dietary pattern and MS and its components( P > 0. 05). The western dietary pattern was negative correlation with the prevalence of MS and hypertension. The meat eating patterns were positively correlated with high fasting blood glucose and obesity. The Uygur specific pattern of diet was negatively correlated with high fasting blood glucose.

CONCLUSION

There were certain relevance in the Uygur population dietary patterns with MS and its components, which the western dietary pattern may was a protective factor for MS and hypertension, and the meat eating patterns may was fasting hyperglycemia and obesity risk factors, and the Uygur specific pattern of diet may was a protective factor for fasting hyperglycemia.
