Lupus
-
Dietary intake is a complex exposure and a potential risk factor for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) due to its impact on lipid and glucose metabolism, oxidative stress, and the intestinal microbiome. We aimed to test whether a prudent dietary pattern is associated with a lower risk of SLE, and whether a Western dietary pattern is associated with a higher risk of SLE. ⋯ We did not observe a relationship between prudent or Western dietary pattern score and risk of SLE.
