Adherence to plant-based dietary patterns in relation to glioma: a case–control study
Abstract Available evidence suggests a favorable association between adherence to a plant-based diet and disease prevention, but data on the link between such dietary intakes and cancer are scarce. We examined the association between the overall plant-based diet (PDI), healthy plant-based diet (hPDI...

| Sumario: | Abstract Available evidence suggests a favorable association between adherence to a plant-based diet and disease prevention, but data on the link between such dietary intakes and cancer are scarce. We examined the association between the overall plant-based diet (PDI), healthy plant-based diet (hPDI), and unhealthy plant-based diet (uPDI) and risk of glioma. This case–control study was conducted on 128 newly diagnosed glioma patients, and 256 hospital-based controls. Cases were diagnosed by pathological test and controls were selected from hospitalized people in orthopedic and surgical wards. Dietary intakes were assessed using a validated Block-format 123-items food frequency questionnaire. Scores of plant-based dietary patterns were calculated using the method suggested by Satija et al. After controlling for potential confounders, individuals with higher scores of PDI (OR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.32–0.91, P-trend < 0.001) and hPDI (OR: 0.32, 95% CI: 0.18–0.57, P-trend < 0.001) had significantly lower odds of glioma compared with those with the lowest scores. This association did not change in the fully adjusted model; such that subjects in the highest tertile of PDI and hPDI were 69% and 71% less likely to have glioma compared with those in the lowest tertile. In contrast, higher scores of uPDI was significantly associated with a greater odds of glioma (OR: 2.85, 95% CI: 1.26–6.47, P-trend = 0.02). Adherence to PDI and hPDI was associated with a lower odds of glioma, while greater adherence to uPDI was directly associated with the likelihood of glioma. Further prospective cohort studies are needed to examine our findings. |
