Background & aims: The role of dietary intake on precocious puberty remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between the amount and frequency of dietary intake and the risk of precocious puberty in Chinese girls. Methods: In this case-control study, we enrolled 185 precocious puberty girls and 185 age-matched controls.Their dietary intake was assessed through a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Their sociodemographic and lifestyle data were collected. The associations between dietary intake and risk of precocious puberty were assessed by conditional logistic regression models. Results: Despite a higher weight and height of girls in the case group than in the control group, there was no statistical difference in BMI between the two groups (P=0.077). After multivariate adjustment, consuming higher amount of red meat was associated with higher precocious puberty risk [≥50g/day vs. P = 0.0121]. Compared with fruit intake frequency P for trend = 0.024]. Furthermore, compared with vegetables intake P for trend = 0.002]. Conclusion: Consuming more fruits and vegetables and less red meat could potentially reduce the risk of precocious puberty in Chinese girls. |
