全球人口正在老龄化。死亡延迟与慢性健康状况负担增加有关，其中许多慢性健康状况与饮食有关。我们进行了文献检索，检索并回顾了考虑饮食质量与 60 岁及以上老年人死亡率相关的相关文章。在我们审查的研究中，饮食质量定义使用先验方法（根据现有饮食指南描述饮食模式）或后验方法（通过符合审查标准的统计方法定义饮食模式）。十六篇文章符合审查标准。一般来说，更坚持强调完整水果和蔬菜、全谷物、低脂乳制品、瘦肉、豆类和坚果的饮食模式与死亡率呈负相关。然而，先验方法尚未证明美国老年人饮食与死亡率之间的关联。根据饮食摄入的地区差异开发新方法可能会提供评估与死亡率关联的最佳方法。
The population is aging worldwide. Delayed mortality is associated with an increased burden of chronic health conditions, many of which have a dietary component. A literature search was conducted to retrieve and review relevant articles considering quality of diets in association with mortality in older adults aged 60 years and older. In the studies we reviewed, diet quality defined using either a priori methods, which characterize dietary patterns based on existing dietary guidelines, or a posteriori methods, which define dietary patterns through statistical methods met review criteria. Sixteen articles met criteria for review. Generally, dietary patterns that demonstrated greater adherence to diets that emphasized whole fruits and vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy, lean meats, and legumes and nuts were inversely associated with mortality. However, a priori methods have not yet demonstrated associations between diet and mortality in older adults in the United States. Development of new methods based on regional variations in dietary intake may offer the best approach to assess associations with mortality.
