ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common inflammatory condition affecting the vaginal microbiome. In the present study we aimed to explore the relationship between dietary inflammatory index, plant-based dietary index, and BV.

METHODS:

In this case-control study, 143 individuals with BV and 151 healthy participants aged 15-45 years were included. Bacterial vaginosis diagnosis was based on the Amsel criteria by a gynecologist. Participants' dietary intakes over the past year were assessed using a 168-item food frequency questionnaire. Logistic regression models were employed to analyze the association between dietary inflammatory index, plant-based dietary index, and BV odds.

RESULTS:

Our study revealed that elevated dietary inflammatory index scores were strongly associated with higher BV odds in the crude model (odds ratio [OR] 2.88, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.57-5.30, P value <0.001), and even after accounting for potential confounding factors (adjusted OR 3.52, 95% CI 1.66-7.46, P value = 0.001). While no significant relationship was observed between total plant-based dietary index and healthy plant-based dietary index scores with BV odds, a clear positive association existed between unhealthy plant-based dietary index and the odds of BV (aOR 2.13, 95% CI 1.09-4.15, P value = 0.018).

CONCLUSION:

A positive correlation may exist between unhealthy plant-based dietary index and the likelihood of BV. Furthermore, the dietary inflammatory index may remain linked to increased BV odds.
