Major Dietary Patterns and Kidney Stone Formation among Iranian Men

Abstract

Objective:  To evaluate the association of major dietary patterns with risk factors of kidney stone formation among Iranian men.
Methods: This cross-sectional study conducted on 264 adult men (19-89 years). The usual dietary intake of individuals over 1 year was collected using a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Anthropometric measurements were made and 24-h urine sample was collected. Adjusted binary logistic regressions were conducted to evaluate the associations.
Results: The three major dietary patterns identified by factor analysis were healthy, unhealthy and spice-caffeine dietary patterns. After adjustment for potential confounders (age, BMI and energy intake), the odds ratio of hypocitraturia in the second (OR=0.57, CI=0.24-1.39) and third (OR=0.24, CI=0.10-0.56) tertiles and the hypercalciuria in the second (OR= 0.38, CI=0.17-0.87) and third (OR=0.20, CI=0.10-0.46) tertiles of healthy pattern was decreased compared to first tertile. The hypocitraturia in the second (OR=1.14, CI=0.56-2.32) and third (OR=5.14 CI=2.04-12.96) tertiles, the hypercalciuria in the second (OR=0.67, CI=0.35-1.36) and third (OR=4.11, CI=1.77-9.56) tertiles of unhealthy pattern were increased compared to the first tertile. There was no significant relationship between healthy and unhealthy dietary patterns with creatinine, oxalate and uric acid (P>0.05).
Conclusion: A higher adherence of the Unhealthy and spice-caffeine dietary patterns, and lower adherence of the Healthy dietary pattern, increases the risk of kidney stone formation in men.
