ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Preeclampsia is a significant complication that occurs during the second half of pregnancy. Recent studies have indicated that dietary factors play a crucial role in the development of preeclampsia. The Diet Quality Index-International (DQI-I) and Dietary Diversity Score (DDS) are appropriate indices for assessing the quality of foods, meals, and diets. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between DQI-I, DDS, and preeclampsia.

METHODS:

This study utilized a case-control design. A total of 90 newly diagnosed preeclampsia cases and 90 healthy controls were included from a referral hospital in Tabriz, Iran. DQI-I and DDS were calculated based on information obtained from a reliable Food Frequency Questionnaire consisting of 168 food items, which assessed participants' usual diet. Logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, body mass index, education, family history of preeclampsia, and total energy intake was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs).

RESULTS:

The mean age and pre-pregnancy body mass index of the participants were 27.14 ± 4.40 years and 26.09 ± 3.33 kg/m2, respectively. After adjusting for various confounders, we found significant inverse association between the risk of developing preeclampsia and both DQI-I and DDS. The highest quartile of DQI-I had a significantly lower risk of developing preeclampsia compared to the first quartile (OR = 0.02, 95% CI [0.005, 0.08]) (P < 0.001). Similarly, the highest quartile of DDS had a significantly lower risk of developing preeclampsia compared to the first quartile (OR = 0.09, 95% CI [0.03, 0.31]) (P = 0.001).

CONCLUSIONS:

Our findings suggest that maintaining a high-quality and diverse diet is associated with a lower risk of preeclampsia. Further studies are needed to confirm these associations and explore potential causal relationships.
