Association between habitual tea consumption and 10-year cardiovascular risk among Chinese mid-aged and elderly
OBJECTIVE To explore the association between habitual tea consumption and 10-year cardiovascular disease risk among middle-aged and elderly Chinese.METHODS China Nutrition and Health Surveillance 2015 applied a stratified,multistage,and random sampling method.The current study selected middle-aged and elderly participants aged 45 and older,and they were investigated by basic information survey,dietary survey based on the food frequency questionnaire,physical measurements including height,weight,and blood pressure,and a laboratory examination with fasting blood samples.Habitual tea consumption was defined by asking about the number of cups of tea usually consumed per day in the past 12 months,and the risk of cardiovascular disease incidence was calculated using the Framingham risk score over a 10-year period.The association between tea consumption and 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease in this population was analyzed using multiple logistic regression,and further analyzed using gender as a stratification factor.RESULTS A total of 42 704 Chinese middle-aged and elderly were included in this study,with an average age of(59.4±9.4)years,20 104 males and 22 600 females,17 194 in urban areas and 25 510 in rural areas.For tea drinking,there were 12 519(29.32％)tea drinkers in the included sample,of which 4153(9.73％)consumed 1-2 cups/d,3336(7.81％)3-4 cups/d,and 5030(11.78％)≥5 cups/d.For 10-year cardiovascular risk,28 267 participants(66.19％)were estimated to be low risk,while 14 437(33.81％)were in the high risk.After adjusting for age,sex,body mass index,place of residence,education,income,marital status,smoking,excessive alcohol consumption,physical activity,sedentary behavior,sleep,participation in medical examination within one year,DASH dietary score,energy intake and chronic disease status,the result showed a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease over a 10-year period among those who consumed 3-4 cups/d compared with those who did not consume tea(OR=0.820,95％CI 0.719-0.934,Ptrend=0.03).When stratified by gender,both gender showed participants who consumed 3-4 cups/d had a lower risk for cardiovascular disease than those who did not consume tea(males:OR=0.849,95％CI 0.722-0.997;females:OR=0.697,95％CI 0.527-0.922).And the result was more pronounced among females.CONCLUSION Moderate habitual tea consumption could reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease among middle-aged and elderly Chinese people,and its protective effect is more pronounced among females.
