Abstract Background Investigating effects of whole diets on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease can contribute to development of diet-based recommendations for prevention and treatment of this disease. the aim of the present study is the identification of major dietary patterns and their association with the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods A total of 244 individuals (122 NAFLD patients and 122 controls) participated in this case-control study. NAFLD patients were diagnosed by a gastroenterologist. Dietary intake data of participants were collected using a 147 item semi-quantitive food frequency questionnaire and major dietary patterns were identified by principal component analysis. The consumption of dietary patterns was divided into tertiles. The association of dietary patterns with the odds of NAFLD was investigated by multivariate logistic regression. Results four major dietary patterns were recognized. The "ordinary pattern" adherence was positively associated with NAFLD risk. Although, results were statistically significant only for the third tertile versus the first tertile after adjusting for confounding factors (OR: 3.74, P-trend <0.001). Likewise, Adherence to the "traditional pattern" was associated with a higher risk for NAFLD. On the contrary, individuals in the third tertile of the "vegetable and dairy pattern" had a significantly decreased risk for NAFLD in comparison to the first tertile. Nevertheless, no significant association between "fast food type pattern" and the risk of NAFLD was found. Conclusion there is a significant association between different dietary patterns and the risk of NAFLD. These results can potentially serve as a dietary strategy for the prevention of NAFLD in individuals who are at high risk for the progression of NAFLD.

Abstract Background: Diet-based recommendations can be developed for preventing and treating non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) after investigating the effects of whole diets on NAFLD. The aim of this study was to identify major dietary patterns and their association with the risk of NAFLD.Methods: A total of 244 individuals (122 NAFLD patients and 122 controls) participated in this case-control study. The NAFLD patients were diagnosed by a gastroenterologist. The participants' dietary intake data were collected using a 147-item semi-quantitive food frequency questionnaire and major dietary patterns were identified by principal component analysis. Adherence to dietary patterns was divided into tertiles and its association with odds of NAFLD was investigated by multivariate logistic regression. Results: The results showed four major dietary patterns, among which adherence to the "ordinary pattern" was positively associated with NAFLD risk. After adjusting for all confounding factors, individuals in the highest tertile of "ordinary pattern" exhibited a significantly elevated risk of NAFLD compared to the lowest tertile (OR= 3.74, 95%CI= 1.23-11.42, P trend<0.001). As well as, Individuals in the second and third tertiles of the "traditional pattern" were associated with the risk of NAFLD compared to the lowest tertile (medium vs. lowest tertile OR= 2.37, 95%CI= 1.02-5.53; highest vs. lowest tertile OR=3.58, 95% CI= 1.48-8.68, P trend<0.001). The highest tertile of "vegetable and dairy pattern" compared to the lowest tertile was inversely associated with NAFLD risk (OR= 0.23, 95%CI= 0.09-0.58, P trend=0.02). No significant association was found between "fast food type pattern" and the risk of NAFLD.Conclusion: A significant association was observed between different dietary patterns and the risk of NAFLD. These results can potentially serve as a dietary strategy for preventing NAFLD in individuals who are at a high risk for progression of NAFLD.

After adjusting for all confounding factors, individuals in the medium and highest tertiles of "ordinary pattern" exhibited a significantly elevated risk of NAFLD compared to the lowest tertile (medium vs. lowest tertile: OR= 1.71, 95%CI= 0.71-4.11; highest vs. lowest tertile: OR= 3.74, 95%CI= 1.23-11.42, P trend <0.001). As well as, Individuals in the second and third tertiles of the "traditional pattern" were associated with the risk of NAFLD compared to the lowest tertile (medium vs. lowest tertile OR= 2.37, 95%CI= 1.02-5.27; highest vs. lowest tertile OR=3.58, 95% CI= 1.48-8.68, P trend <0.001).
