摘要
BACKGROUND: Various dietary quality indices demonstrate that a higher dietary quality score is associated with a reduced risk of several chronic diseases. However, creating an index tailored to the national population is crucial. The study investigated the association between the Alternative Healthy Eating Index-Taiwan (AHEI-Taiwan) and graft dysfunction in Taiwanese renal transplant recipients (RTRs).
METHODS: A prospective cohort study recruited 102 RTRs with a functioning allograft without acute rejection in the last 3 months from September 2016 to June 2018. Laboratory data were obtained from the medical records of patients. Graft dysfunction was indicated by an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)
RESULTS: Mean age, renal transplant time, and eGFR were 48.9 ± 12.8 years, 8.5 ± 5.8 years, and 54.9 ± 17.8 mL/min per 1.73 m2, respectively, in 102 RTRs. The RTRs with the highest quartile of AHEI-Taiwan scores were older and had a higher eGFR. Logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, calories, Charlson comorbidity index, transplant time, and dialysis time showed that the highest quartile of the AHEI-Taiwan was associated with an 88% (odds ratio, 0.12; 95% CI, 0.03-0.59, P < .01) lower risk of graft dysfunction.
CONCLUSION: A high AHEI-Taiwan score was associated with a reduced risk of graft dysfunction in Taiwanese RTRs.
