RESUMEN
Introduction: Breast cancer is one of the main types ofcancer in women. Previous studies assessed the relationshipbetween diet and breast cancer risk, however, studies thatevaluate the relationship between diet and mammographicfindings are scarce. Aim: To evaluate the association between dietary patternsand mammographic findings of women monitored by a mas-tology service of the Brazilian Unified Health System. Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional study that eval-uated data from 504 women. Two 24-hour dietary recallswere applied and dietary patterns were identified by principalcomponent factor analysis. The mammography reports wereclassified into normal and altered mammographic findings. Logistic regression models were applied to evaluate the asso-ciation between dietary patterns and mammographic findings.The analyses were performed in the software Stata and R andconsidered significant values of p <0.05. Results: Three dietary patterns was identified: traditionalBrazilian (rice, beans, red meat, breads, oils and fats andcoffees and teas), Western (sugar sweetened beverages, eggs, cakes, pies and cookies, fast-food snacks and, sweetsand desserts) and prudent (whole grains, fruits, vegetables,tubers and their products, dairy and chicken). Women withless adherence (OR 0.54 CI 95% 0.30:0.95) to the traditionalBrazilian dietary pattern had 46% lower odds for having al-tered mammographic findings. No associations were foundbetween Western and prudent dietary patterns with mam-mographic findings.(AU)

OBJECTIVE: To investigate if there is an association between glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) of the diet and the presence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in the elderly. METHODS: Retrospective study, composed of 229 patients seen at the Outpatient Clinic of Arterial Hyperten- sion in a public hospital, 103 carriers and 126 noncarriers of NAFLD. Food intake was analyzed to GI and GL. RESULTS: We found a high prevalence of inadequate dietary GI, with an average of 62.0 +/- 6.3 among patients with NAFLD and 62.5 +/- 6.5 among patients without NAFLD. The same occurred with the GL, 101.7 +/- 33.3 and 101.4 +/- 40.2, respectively, between carriers and noncarriers of the disease. There was no statistical difference between the values of GI and GL found in the diet of patients with and without NAFLD. CONCLUSION: In the evaluated group there was no association between GI and GL dietetic with NAFLD, but the findings put all of the patients at higher risk for the development of chronic diseases.
