目的：评价日本传统饮食对过敏性疾病的保护作用是有价值的。这项横断面研究调查了海藻、蔬菜、水果、抗氧化剂、纤维和矿物质的膳食摄入量与过敏性鼻炎患病率之间的关系。方法：研究对象为1002名日本孕妇。如果受试者在过去12个月内接受过药物治疗，则定义为存在过敏性鼻炎（包括雪松花粉症）。通过自我管理的饮食史问卷收集饮食因素信息。结果：海藻摄入量与变应性鼻炎患病率降低独立相关。钙磷摄入量与变应性鼻炎患病率呈显著的负剂量反应关系。镁的摄入和过敏性鼻炎之间也有负相关的趋势。钙或镁摄入量的额外调整显然不会影响与海藻摄入量的负相关关系。蔬菜、水果、维生素C和E、纤维和锌的摄入与过敏性鼻炎没有关联，而β -胡萝卜素的摄入与过敏性鼻炎之间存在显著的正相关。结论：高膳食摄入海藻、钙、镁和磷可能与变应性鼻炎患病率降低有关。
PURPOSE: It may be worthwhile to assess the possible protective effect of the traditional Japanese diet on allergic disorders. This cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between dietary intake of seaweed, vegetables, fruit, antioxidants, fiber, and minerals and the prevalence of allergic rhinitis. MMETHODS: Study subjects were 1002 Japanese pregnant women. Allergic rhinitis (including cedar pollinosis) was defined as present if subjects had received drug treatment at some point during the previous 12 months. Information on dietary factors was collected by using a self-administered diet history questionnaire.RESULTS: Seaweed intake was associated independently with a decreased prevalence of allergic rhinitis. Significant inverse dose-response relationships were found between calcium and phosphorus intake and allergic rhinitis prevalence. There also was a tendency for an inverse association between magnesium consumption and allergic rhinitis. Additional adjustment for calcium or magnesium intake apparently did not influence the inverse association with seaweed consumption. Consumption of vegetables, fruit, vitamins C and E, fiber, and zinc showed no association with allergic rhinitis, whereas a significant positive relationship was observed between beta-carotene intake and allergic rhinitis.CONCLUSIONS: High dietary intake of seaweed, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus may be associated with a decreased prevalence of allergic rhinitis.
