Serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein is associated with dietary intakes in diabetic patients with and without hypertension: a cross-sectional study.
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry 2018 July
Background Serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) concentrations independently predict the development of diabetes, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. However, the impact of dietary factors on serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein concentrations in diabetic patients has received limited attention. We aimed to investigate the association between dietary factors and high-sensitive C-reactive protein , among diabetic patients with and without hypertension and healthy subjects. Methods In this cross-sectional study, diabetics with ( n = 325) and without hypertension ( n = 599) and healthy individuals ( n = 1220) were recruited in Mashhad, Iran. Dietary intake was assessed by 24-h recall. Biochemical parameters including serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein were measured using standard protocols. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to predict whether serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein concentration was associated with dietary constituents. Results High-sensitive C-reactive protein was significantly higher among hypertensive and non-hypertensive diabetic patients compared with healthy subjects ( P < 0.001). The dietary intake of zinc + 6.4% and calcium -3.4% and body mass index +3.9% explained approximately 13.7% of the variation in serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein among diabetic hypertensive patients. Approximately 9.7% of the variation in serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein in diabetic non-hypertensive patients could be explained by body mass index, and intake of sodium, iron and cholesterol. In the healthy subjects, approximately 4.4% of the total variation in serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein concentration could be explained by cholesterol consumption and waist circumference. Conclusion Serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein concentrations were found to be a significant predictor for hypertensive and non-hypertensive diabetic subjects. There was a significant association between dietary factors include zinc, iron, sodium and cholesterol and serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein, while there was an inverse association between dietary calcium and serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein in diabetic hypertensive individuals.
