Relationship between Food-Intake Trends and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate in Elderly Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

摘要

p class="global-para-14" pThe aim of this study is to investigate how vegetable and fruit intake trends affect the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by analyzing therapeutic diet status in elderly type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. The study included 59 elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (mean age: 70.1±7.8 y) who had previously received therapeutic education for type 2 diabetes mellitus from a clinical team and were subsequently receiving outpatient treatment. Blood examination data were retrospectively collected from medical records and diet status was investigated using a simplified self-administered diet history questionnaire. Dietary patterns were extracted using principal component analysis, and the relationships with each blood examination data were investigated. Linear regression analysis was then used to examine the intake food groups related to eGFR. Energy intake was 27±9 kcal/kg. Overall, these results were in line with the Guidelines for the Treatment of Diabetes in Japan 2016. As a result of principal component analysis, seven dietary patterns were extracted, and the cumulative contribution ratio of the seven components was 74.0%. Among the dietary patterns, the 6th factor (positive weighting with fruit) for eGFR was a negative prognostic factor ( p =0.010). Analysis of food group intake and eGFR indicated that green and yellow vegetables were positive prognostic factors, whereas fruits were negative prognostic factors (both p 0.05). The dietary patterns dependent on green and yellow vegetables and fruit intake appeared to influence eGFR positively and negatively, respectively./p /p
