Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS R0xp7wzI. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The authors examined prospectively the association between dietary fat intake and cataract extraction in adult women from the Nurses'Health Study. A total of 71,083 women were followed prospectively for up to 16 years between 1984 and 2000. Dietary fat was assessed by repeated food frequency questionnaires. Incident cases of cataract extraction were determined by a biennial questionnaire. The multivariate-adjusted relative risk for the highest compared with the lowest quintile of total fat intake was 1.10 (95% confidence interval (Cl) : 0.99,1.22 ; ptrend=0.01). Women in the highest quintile of long-chain omega-3 fatty acid had a 12% lower risk of cataract extraction compared with those in the lowest quintile (relative risk=0.88,95% Cl : 0.79,0.98 ; ptrend=0.02). Total fish intake was inversely associated with cataract (for intake of>3/week vs. |
