This research examines the relationship between the dietary index for gut microbiota and the risk of chronic kidney disease.
Conducted a cohort study with participants assessed for dietary intake and gut microbiota diversity.
Utilized genetic data to predict gut microbiome composition.
Analyzed the association between dietary index and chronic kidney disease incidence.
Higher dietary index scores linked to a lower risk of chronic kidney disease.
Genetically predicted gut microbiome showed significant associations with chronic kidney disease risk.
Implications suggest dietary modifications could be beneficial for kidney health.
Abstract
Background: The dietary index for gut microbiota (DI-GM) is a recently proposed index that reflects the diversity of the gut microbiota from the perspective of dietary intake. However, its association...
