Popis: Background: Energy-adjusted dietary inflammatory index (E-DII) can represent daily inflammatory dietary components and chronic inflammatory response is an important pathogenesis of aging, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and frailty. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the association of E-DII and frailty in older adults with NAFLD. Methods: This cross-sectional study utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2005–2016) to investigate the association between E-DII and frailty. The NAFLD status was determined using the US Fatty Liver Index (FLI) value ≥30. The relationship between E-DII and frailty was examined through multivariate weighted logistic regression analysis and smooth curve fitting. Subgroup analyses were conducted, considering various demographic and clinical variables. Results: Our final analysis included 1586 individuals, with an average age of 69.42 years, and 53.15 % of them were males. The overall prevalence of frailty in the study population was 39.42 %. Smooth curve fitting analysis demonstrated a nearly linear relationship between E-DII and H. pylori. Utilizing multivariate weighted logistic regression analysis, we found that the odds ratio (OR) of E-DII for frailty was 1.08 (95%CI, 1.03–1.15). Subgroup analysis further confirmed that E-DII independently increased the risk of frailty. Conclusion: Higher E-DII levels were found to be associated with an increased risk of frailty in older adults with NAFLD. However, further studies are required to fully elucidate the precise mechanisms underlying the relationship between E-DII and frailty.
