RESUMO
PURPOSE: Oxidative balance stress (OBS) was an important indicator for assessing exposure to oxidative stress related to diet and lifestyle. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between OBS and kidney stone disease (KSD). METHODS: Secondary dataset analysis was performed by the study from six survey cycles (2007-2018) in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). OBS was the exposure factor and ever had kidney stone (yes or no) was the outcome. Weighted univariate or multivariate logistic regression models were used to estimate the associations. RESULTS: The prevalence of KSD among participants was 8.6%. OBS showed a significant negative correlation with KSD (OR: 0.98, 95% CI 0.96-0.999), 35% reduction in KSD in the highest OBS quartile compared to the lowest OBS quartile. Dietary OBS was significantly negatively correlated with KSD (OR: 0.98, 95% CI 0.96-0.9998), but not with lifestyle OBS. In addition, OBS had a negative correlation with KSD in females (OR: 0.97, 95% CI 0.94-0.996), non-diabetic participants (OR: 0.98, 95% CI 0.96-0.99), and hypertensive participants (OR: 0.96, 95% CI 0.93-0.99), but OBS was not observed to be associated with KSD in gout participants. Interestingly, this relationship existed in participants aged 30-60 years and a ratio of family income to poverty (PIR) of 1.3-3.5 (all P value < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Our study revealed that OBS was negative associated with KSD, and high OBS might be a protective factor in KSD. Targeting one of the components of OBS might be beneficial.

BACKGROUND: Antioxidant and pro-oxidant dietary patterns and lifestyle changes have been considered to play a crucial role in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. We conducted this study to investigate the underlying association between oxidative balance score (OBS) and H. pylori infection in the US population. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study according to data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999-2000), and included individuals with complete information about dietary intake and H. pylori serologic testing results. In the present study, we used multivariate logistic regression analysis, smoothed curve fitting, subgroup analyses, and Cox proportional hazards modeling based on demographic and clinical variables to examine the relationship between OBS and H. pylori infection. RESULTS: A total of 3413 individuals participated in our analysis with an average age of 32.31 years. The prevalence of H. pylori infection in the study population was 29.77%. By performing smooth curve fitting analysis, we observed an approximately linear relationship between OBS and H. pylori infection, indicating that lower OBS was associated with higher risk of H. pylori infection, especially in over 60 years of age and non-Hispanic white populations. All-cause mortality was also found lower in individuals with higher OBS levels. CONCLUSION: In the US population, increased levels of OBS were associated with a reduced risk of H. pylori infection and decreased all-cause mortality. More and further work is still needed to elucidate the precise mechanism of the association between OBS and H. pylori infection.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Extant research has demonstrated a correlation between exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and impaired lung function. The maintenance of an antioxidant-rich diet/lifestyle positively benefits pulmonary health. However, the potential ameliorative impact of an antioxidant-based diet/lifestyle on PAH-induced detrimental effects remains unclear. METHODS: The study drew upon cross-sectional data encompassing 1615 participants derived from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007 to 2012. To gauge the maintenance of an antioxidant-rich diet/lifestyle, we employed Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) that incorporates sixteen nutrients and four lifestyle factors. Lung function was evaluated using percent-predicted Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume 1st Second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC, and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FENO). Our analytical approach entailed the utilization of weighted linear models. RESULTS: Our analysis unveiled interaction effects between urinary monohydroxy polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OH-PAHs) and OBS concerning lung function. A one-unit increase in ∑OH-PAH (sum of eight OH-PAHs) was linked to a -0.75% reduction (95% CI: -1.28, -0.22) in FEV1/FVC. Individuals exhibiting low OBS displayed a marked decrease in FEV1/FVC (mean difference = -1.10%; 95% CI: -1.82, -0.39) for each unit increase in ∑OH-PAH, whereas no significant associations were discerned for those with medium or high OBS. Further stratification by gender yielded consistent results. The correlation between ∑OH-PAH and FENO proved statistically significant among participants with low OBS (P = 0.002) and medium OBS (P = 0.001), but non-significant for those with high OBS. Parallel findings emerged when examining percent-predicted FEV1 and FVC. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, our study underscores the existence of statistically significant interactions between OH-PAHs and the maintenance of an antioxidant-rich diet and lifestyle concerning lung function. These findings underscore the pivotal role of maintaining an antioxidant-based diet and lifestyle in mitigating the adverse impacts of PAH exposure on lung function.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Prior studies have established the correlation between oxidative balance score (OBS) and hypertension (HTN). While the association between OBS and resistant hypertension (RHT) as well as arterial stiffness among individuals with hypertension remains undisclosed. METHODS AND RESULTS: In this study, total of 15,910 adults diagnosed with hypertension were enrolled from NHANES 2001-2018. OBS was calculated and categorized into quartiles. Weighted regression model, stratified analyses and restricted cubic spline (RCS) were employed to evaluate the association between OBS and RHT, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and arterial stiffness in individuals with hypertension. Among enrolled participants, high OBS quartiles consistently demonstrated a negative association with resistant hypertension across all models (all p < 0.05), indicating robust stability. Compared with the lowest OBS quartile, the risk of resistant hypertension in the highest OBS quartile was decreased by 30.8% (95%CI 0.471-0.995, p = 0.049). After dividing OBS into dietary OBS and lifestyle OBS, a significant inverse association with lifestyle OBS and RHT was observed. With regard to MACEs, the inverse association was also found in participants with high OBS. Besides, the potential relation between OBS and arterial stiffness was explored and we found OBS was significantly associated with decreased arterial stiffness (ß for ePWV, -0.014; 95%CI -0.026 to -0.001; p = 0.032). RCS analysis confirmed a nonlinear association between OBS and RHT, MACEs, cardiovascular death and nonfatal MI among participants with hypertension. CONCLUSION: Elevated OBS was negatively associated with the risk of RHT and arterial stiffness among US adults with hypertension.

BACKGROUND: Limited data regarding the correlation between oxidative balance score (OBS) and hyperuricemia highlights the necessity for thorough investigations. This study aims to examine the link between OBS, which incorporates dietary and lifestyle factors, and the occurrence of hyperuricemia. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study involving 13,636 participants from the 2007-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). The oxidative balance score (OBS) was determined based on four lifestyle factors and sixteen dietary nutrients. We assessed the levels of serum uric acid (SUA) and the occurrence of hyperuricemia as outcomes. Weighted logistic regression and linear models were used for statistical analysis, using Restricted Cubic Splines (RCS) to examine potential nonlinear associations. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity assessments were performed to identify any variations and ensure the robustness of the findings. RESULTS: Higher OBS was consistently correlated with decreased SUA levels and a reduced prevalence of hyperuricemia. RCS highlighted a significant negative nonlinear association, particularly in females. Subgroup analysis revealed gender-based differences and interactive correlation, providing additional insights regarding OBS and hyperuricemia relationship. CONCLUSION: This study underscores a robust negative correlation between OBS and SUA levels as well as the incidence of hyperuricemia, emphasizing the importance of dietary and lifestyle factors. Incorporating RCS, subgroup analysis, and sensitivity assessments enhances the depth of our findings, providing valuable insights for further research.

BACKGROUND: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a prevalent condition that is thought to be significantly impacted by oxidative stress. The oxidative balance score (OBS) has been built to characterize the state of antioxidant/pro-oxidant balance. There is less known regarding the relationship of OBS with ED. METHODS: This study conducted cross-sectional analyses on 1860 males who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2001 to 2004. OBS was constructed by the 16 dietary components and 4 lifestyle factors. Self-reported ED was defined as men who indicated that they "never" or "sometimes" could achieve or keeping an erection adequate for satisfactory intercourse. Multivariate logistic regression models were applied to examine the association between OBS and the risk of ED. RESULTS: Among 1860 participants, the median OBS was 20 (IQR 15-26), and OBS was lower in males with ED vs. those without ED (P = 0.001). The results of our analyses indicated a negative correlation between OBS and ED among male subjects. Specifically, each one-unit increase in the continuous OBS was relate to 3% reduction in the odds of ED after full adjustment. Moreover, when extreme OBS quartiles were compared, the adjusted odds ratio (95% confidence interval) for the 4th OBS category was 0.53 (0.32 to 0.88) after full adjustment (P for trend < 0.05). There was also statistical significance in the relationships between dietary/lifestyle OBS with ED, and the association between lifestyle OBS and ED may be even tighter. For each unit increase in lifestyle OBS, the odds of ED decreased by 11% after full adjustment. CONCLUSION: Higher OBS was associated with reduced risk of ED in U.S. males. These findings suggested that adopting an antioxidant-rich diet and engaging in antioxidant-promoting lifestyle behaviors may contribute to a lower incidence of ED. These results provided recommendations for a comprehensive dietary and lifestyle antioxidants for ED patients.

OBJECTIVE: Although oxidative stress is a recognized factor of inflammation, the correlation between oxidative balance score (OBS), a biomarker indicating the balance of oxidation and antioxidant, and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an immune system disease that tends to occur in women, remains unexplored. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate the potential association between OBS and RA in women. METHODS: Observational surveys were performed by employing information extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for the period 2007-2018. Various statistical techniques were employed to investigate the association between OBS and RA, encompassing multivariable logistic regression analysis, subgroup analyses, smooth curve fitting, and threshold effect analysis. RESULTS: The study included 8219 female participants, including 597 patients with RA. The results showed that higher Total OBS (TOBS) significantly correlated with lower RA prevalence in the entirely modified model [odd ratio (OR) = 0.968; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.952 to 0.984; P = 0.0001]. Dietary OBS (DOBS) and lifestyle OBS (LOBS) also negatively correlated with RA. This association was remarkably consistent across TOBS subgroups by age, race, education level, family poverty-to-income ratio (PIR), hypertension and diabetes. Smooth curve fitting and threshold effect analysis also revealed the linear relationship between OBS and RA. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, OBS was negatively associated with RA in female. This study suggested that an antioxidant diet and lifestyle may be promising measures to prevent RA in female.

PURPOSE: Some studies have found that the pathological formation of kidney stones is closely related to injury and inflammatory response. Behaviors such as dietary composition, physical activity, obesity and smoking can all affect the body's oxidative stress levels. In order to evaluate the effects of various diets and lifestyles on the body's oxidative and antioxidant systems, an oxidative balance score was developed. To investigate whether the OBS is associated with the development of kidney stones. METHODS: Data were taken from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2007-2018, followed by retrospective observational studies. The association between kidney stones and OBS was analyzed using survey-weighted logistic regression by adjusting for demographics, laboratory tests, and medical comorbidity covariates. The oxidative balance score is calculated by screening 16 nutrients and 4 lifestyle factors, including 5 prooxidants and 15 antioxidants, based on prior information about the relationship between oxidation levels in the body and nutrients or lifestyle factors. RESULTS: A total of 26,786 adult participants were included in the study, of which 2,578, or 9.62%, had a history of nephrolithiasis. Weighted logistic regression analysis found an association between OBS and kidney stones. In the fully tuned model, i.e., model 3, the highest quartile array of OBS was associated with the lowest quartile array of OBS (OR = 0.73 (0.57, 0.92)) with the risk of kidney stone (p = 0.01), and was statistically significant and remained relatively stable in each model. At the same time, the trend test in the model is also statistically significant. With the increase of OBS, the OR value of kidney stones generally tends to decrease. CONCLUSIONS: There is an inverse correlation between OBS and kidney stone disease. At the same time, higher OBS suggests that antioxidant exposure is greater than pro-oxidative exposure in diet and lifestyle, and is associated with a lower risk of kidney stones.

BACKGROUND: This study analyzes the correlation between oxidative balance score (OBS), cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs), and mortality in individuals with CMRFs. METHODS: Data were chosen from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The survey-weighted multivariable logistic regression models were implemented to explore the relationship between OBS and the risk of CMRFs. Then, Cox proportional hazard models were employed to estimate the impact of OBS on mortality in individuals with CMRFs. RESULTS: Following multivariate adjustment, the subjects in the highest quartile exhibited a 46% reduction in the risk of CMRFs, a 33% reduction in the risk of diabetes, a 31% reduction in the risk of hypertension, and a 36% reduction in the risk of hyperlipidemia, compared with those in the lowest quartile. Furthermore, each 1-unit increase in OBS was remarkably negatively correlated with the prevalence of CMRFs, diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. The correlation between OBS and CMFRs was found to be mediated by serum γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) and white blood cells (WBC), and the mediation effect of GGT levels and WBC, accounting for 6.90% and 11.51%, respectively. Lastly, the multivariate Cox regression model revealed that elevated OBS, irrespective of whether it was treated as a categorical or continuous variable, exhibited a significant association with decreased mortality from all causes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. CONCLUSIONS: An increased OBS might reflect a lower risk of CMRFs and a favorable prognosis for individuals with CMRFs. Moreover, WBC and GGT may play a potential mediating role between OBS and CMRFs.

OBJECTIVE: The oxidative balance score (OBS) reflects the overall burden of oxidative stress in an individual, with a higher OBS indicating greater antioxidant exposure. This study aimed to explore the association between constipation and OBS. METHODS: Variables were extracted from participants who completed a constipation questionnaire as part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005 to 2010. The OBS was developed based on dietary and lifestyle factors, encompassing 16 nutrients and 4 lifestyle variables. Weighted logistic regression and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analyses were employed to evaluate the association between OBS and constipation. RESULTS: After adjusting for all covariates, weighted multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed a 4% reduction in the incidence of constipation for each additional unit of OBS (OR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.95-0.97, p < 0.001). In the OBS subgroup, the risk of constipation significantly decreased compared to that in the lowest quartile (Q2: 0.72, P = 0.024; Q3: 0.59, P < 0.001; Q4: 0.54, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrated a significant association between constipation and the oxidative balance score (OBS), particularly dietary OBS, and that an increase in OBS may reduce the risk of developing constipation, in which oxidative stress may play an important role. This finding suggested that dietary modification could be an important approach for preventing constipation.

We used data from the NHANES to explore associations of DOBS with femur BMD and osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. We found that DOBS was positively associated with femur BMD and negatively associated with the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. PURPOSE: The study aimed to investigate the relationship between dietary oxidative balance score (DOBS) and the risk of osteoporosis in American postmenopausal women. METHODS: A total of 3043 participants were included in this study. The linear relationship between DOBS and femur BMD was evaluated using a weighted multivariate linear regression model. The association between DOBS and the risk of osteoporosis was assessed using a weighted logistic regression model, with odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) calculated. Moreover, the relationship was further characterized through smooth curve fitting (SCF) and weighted generalized additive model (GAM) analysis. RESULTS: After adjusting for all covariates, the weighted multivariable linear regression models showed a positive correlation between DOBS and femur BMD. Moreover, the weighted logistic regression model demonstrated that compared to the first tertile of DOBS, the highest tertile of DOBS was significantly associated with a lower risk of osteoporosis, with ORs of 0.418 (95% CI, 0.334, 0.522) for individuals under the age of 70 and 0.632 (95% CI, 0.506, 0.790) for individuals aged 70 or above. Similar trends were also observed in SCF and GAM models. CONCLUSION: The present study indicated that postmenopausal women with a higher DOBS have a lower risk of femur osteoporosis. This finding may highlight the potential protective role of an antioxidant-rich diet for the bones of the postmenopausal population. Moreover, DOBS may also be a valuable tool in identifying individuals with osteoporosis. Screening and early intervention for osteoporosis may be essential for postmenopausal women with low DOBS.

BACKGROUND: The oxidative balance score (OBS) has been utilized to assess the overall pro- and antioxidant exposure status in various chronic diseases. The current meta-analysis was carried out to pool the association between OBS and the risk of cancer. METHODS: We systematically searched the Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar up to August 2023. All observational studies which evaluated the association of OBS with the risk of cancers were included. There was no time of publication or language restrictions. Heterogeneity between studies was assessed using the Chi-square-based Q-test and the I2. A random-effects model meta-analysis was conducted to estimate the pooled effect sizes. Possible sources of heterogeneity were explored by subgroup and meta-regression analysis. RESULTS: Totally, 15 studies (9 case-control and 6 cohorts) were eligible for meta-analysis. Random effect model meta-analysis of case-control studies showed that higher OBS significantly decreases the odds of cancers (pooled OR: 0.64, 95% CI: 0.54, 0.74). In the cohort studies, the association of OBS with the risk of cancers was not significant (pooled HR: 0.97, 95% CI: 0.80,1.18). The subgroup analysis showed that cancer type and gender were the potential sources of heterogeneity. CONCLUSION: Our results show an inverse and significant association between higher OBS and odds of colorectal cancers in case-control and cohort studies. In the case of prostate cancer in cohort studies, our results did not align with the hypothesis. Considering the importance of diet and antioxidant balance in the conditions of malignancy, it is suggested to conduct more comprehensive studies with standard measurement methods to obtain conclusive results.

BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress is possibly related to cognitive function decline. The oxidative balance score (OBS) that combines pro- and antioxidant components from diet and lifestyle has been reported to be associated with age-related diseases. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to investigate the association between OBS and cognitive function in older adults and explore whether oxidative stress mediated this relationship. METHODS: A total of 1745 adults aged ≥60 y were included in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2014. Cognitive function was measured using 4 tests: the immediate recall test, delayed recall test, animal fluency test (AFT), and digital symbol substitution test (DSST). Weighted multivariate linear regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS) analyses were used to evaluate the association between OBS and cognitive function, and mediation analysis was used to test the indirect effect of oxidative stress indicators on the association. RESULTS: The OBS was positively associated with AFT, DSST, and global cognitive function in older adults, and the beta estimates (95% CI) were 0.015 (0.008, 0.034), 0.009 (0.002, 0.025), and 0.030 (0.024, 0.074), moreover, RCS results suggested an approximately linear dose-response relationship between the OBS and these 3 tests. The highest quartiles of these 3 tests were also significantly correlated with OBS. Albumin, uric acid, and serum 25(OH)D concentrations were significant mediators of the relationship between OBS and cognitive function, and the overall mediation effect proportion was 36% when included in 1 model. CONCLUSIONS: OBS was positively correlated with cognitive function in older adults, and albumin, uric acid, and serum 25(OH)D concentrations could be the driving mediators of the association. The findings emphasize the importance of a healthy, antioxidant diet and lifestyle that contribute to cognitive function. J Nutr 20xx;x:xx.

BACKGROUND: No previous study has assessed the association between oxidative balance score (OBS) and dietary phytochemical index (DPI) with colorectal cancer (CRC) simultaneously. Therefore, this study investigated the association between OBS and DPI with the odds of CRC among the Iranian population. METHODS: This hospital-based age and sex-matched case-control study was conducted between September 2008 and January 2010 (142 controls and 71 cases were entered for analysis). New diagnosed CRC cases were selected from the Cancer Institute, Imam Khomeini Hospital of Tehran. Dietary intakes were determined by a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Then, dietary indices were calculated by food items and nutrient intake. Logistic regression was utilized for assessing the tertiles of OBS and DPI. RESULTS: In multivariate analysis, OBS was associated with a 77% reduction in CRC odds in the last tertile than the first tertile (odds ratio (OR) = 0.23, confidence interval (CI): 0.07-0.72, Ptrend = 0.017). Also, we found a 64% reduction in CRC odds in the last tertile of DPI compared to the first tertile (OR = 0.36, CI: 0.15-0.86, Ptrend = 0.015). CONCLUSIONS: A diet rich in phytochemicals and anti-oxidants, including fruits and vegetables (citrus fruits, colored berries, and dark-green leafy vegetables) and whole grains, may reduce the CRC odds.

PURPOSE: We aimed to prospectively investigate the association of an overall oxidative balance score (OBS) with all-cause death and cause-specific mortality among participants in the Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra (SUN) Study, a Mediterranean cohort of Spanish graduates. METHODS: Using baseline information on 12 a priori selected dietary and non-dietary lifestyle pro- and antioxidants exposures-vitamins C and E, ß-carotenes, selenium, zinc, heme iron, polyphenols, total antioxidant capacity, body mass index, alcohol, smoking, and physical activity-we constructed an equally weighted OBS categorized into quartiles, with higher scores representing greater antioxidant balance. Cox proportional hazards models were fitted to evaluate the association between the OBS and mortality. RESULTS: A total of 18,561 participants (mean [SD] age, 38.5 [12.4] years; 40.8% males) were included in the analysis. During a median follow-up of 12.2 years (interquartile range 8.3-14.9), 421 deaths were identified, including 80 deaths from cardiovascular disease (CVD), 215 from cancer, and 126 from other causes. After adjustment for potential confounders, the hazard ratios and 95% confidence interval (CIs) between the highest quartile (predominance of antioxidants) vs. the lowest quartile (reference category) were 0.35 (95% CI 0.22-0.54, P-trend < 0.001) for all-cause mortality, 0.18 (95% CI 0.06-0.51, P-trend = 0.001) for CVD mortality, 0.35 (95% CI 0.19-0.65, P-trend = 0.002) for cancer mortality, and 0.45 (95% CI 0.20-1.02, P-trend = 0.054) for other-cause mortality. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest a strong inverse association between the OBS and all-cause, CVD, and cancer mortality. Individuals exposed to both antioxidant dietary and lifestyle factors may potentially experience the lowest mortality risk.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Little research have focused on the relationship between systemic oxidative stress status and NAFLD and fibrosis. The Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) is employed to evaluate whole-body lifestyle and diet exposures related to oxidative stress, with higher OBS scores implying exposure to more antioxidants. This study aimed to explore whether OBS is correlated with NAFLD and NAFLD-related fibrosis. METHODS AND RESULTS: 12,223 participants from NHANES 2003-2018 were enrolled in this study. NAFLD was defined as USFLI ≥30 and liver fibrosis was determined as FIB-4 ≥ 2.67. OBS was scored by 20 lifestyle and dietary factors. Weighted logistic regression and restricted cubic splines were used to assess the association between OBS and NAFLD and fibrosis. The prevalence of NAFLD was 29.67%. There was a significant negative correlation between OBS, dietary OBS, lifestyle OBS and NAFLD and no correlation with NAFLD-related fibrosis. Compared to the lowest quartile, the adjusted ORs for the highest quartile of OBS, lifestyle OBS, dietary OBS and NAFLD were 0.55(95%CI:0.35,0.85), 0.12(95%CI:0.08,0.16), 0.70(95%CI:0.52,0.94) respectively. In stratified analyses, lifestyle OBS was negatively associated with NAFLD across gender, dietary OBS was only negatively correlated with NAFLD in men, and any OBS was not observed to be relevant to NAFLD-related fibrosis. CONCLUSIONS: OBS was negatively associated with NAFLD, but not with NAFLD-related fibrosis. The findings underline the significance of adhering to an antioxidant lifestyle and diet, which can help prevent NAFLD but seems to be ineffective in preventing fibrosis in individuals with NAFLD.

Recent evidence advises particles with a diameter of 2.5 µm or less (PM2.5) might be a prognostic factor for ovarian cancer (OC) survival. The oxidative balance score (OBS) incorporates diet-lifestyle factors to estimate individuals' anti-oxidant exposure status which may be relevant to cancer prognosis. We aimed to investigate the roles of PM2.5, and OBS and their interaction in OC prognosis. 663 patients with OC were enrolled in the current study. Satellite-derived annual average exposures to PM2.5 based on patients' residential locations. The OBS was calculated based on 16 different diet-lifestyle components derived using an acknowledged self-reported questionnaire. The Cox regression model was performed to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for overall survival (OS). We also assessed the effect of modification between PM2.5 and OS by OBS via interaction terms. During a median follow-up of 37.57 (interquartile:35.27-40.17) months, 123 patients died. Compared to low-concentration PM2.5 exposure, high PM2.5 during 1 year before diagnosis was associated with worse OC survival (HR= 1.19, 95% CI = 1.01-1.42). We observed an improved OS with the highest compared with the lowest OBS (HR = 0.46, 95% CI = 0.27-0.79, P for trend < 0.05). Notably, we also found an additive interaction between low OBS and high exposure to PM2.5, with the corresponding associations of PM2.5 being more pronounced among participants with lower OBS (HR = 1.42, 95% CI = 1.09-1.86). PM2.5 may blunt OC survival, but high OBS represented an antioxidative performance that could alleviate the adverse association of PM2.5 and OS.

PURPOSE: Plasma F2-isoprostanes (FiP) concentration, a reliably measured, valid, systemic oxidative stress biomarker, has been associated with multiple health-related outcomes; however, associations of most individual dietary and lifestyle exposures with FiP are unclear, and there is no reported oxidative balance score (OBS) comprising multiple dietary and/or lifestyle components weighted by their associations with FiP. METHODS: To investigate cross-sectional associations of dietary and lifestyle characteristics with plasma FiP concentrations, we used multivariable general linear models to compare adjusted mean FiP concentrations across categories of dietary nutrient and whole-food intakes and lifestyle characteristics in two pooled cross-sectional studies (n = 386). We also developed equal-weight and weighted OBS (nutrient- and foods-based dietary OBS, lifestyle OBS, and total OBS), and compared adjusted mean FiP concentrations across OBS tertiles. RESULTS: Among men and women combined, adjusted mean FiP concentrations were statistically significantly, proportionately 28.1% higher among those who were obese relative to those who were normal weight; among those in the highest relative to the lowest total nutrient intake tertiles, FiP concentrations were statistically significantly lower by 9.8% for carotenes, 13.6% for lutein/zeaxanthin, 10.9% for vitamin C, 12.2% for vitamin E, 11.5% for glucosinolates, and 5% for calcium. Of the various OBS, the weighted OBS that combined total nutrient intakes and lifestyle exposures was most strongly associated with FiP concentrations: among those in the highest relative to the lowest total OBS, mean FiP concentrations were statistically significantly 29.7% lower (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Multiple dietary and lifestyle characteristics, individually, and especially collectively, may contribute to systemic oxidative stress.

Diet, inflammation, and oxidative stress may be important in breast carcinogenesis, but evidence on the role of the inflammatory and prooxidative potential of dietary patterns is limited. Energy adjusted-Dietary Inflammatory Index (E-DII™) and dietary oxidative balance score (D-OBS) were calculated for 43 563 Sister Study cohort participants who completed a Block 1998 food frequency questionnaire at enrollment in 2003-2009 and satisfied eligibility criteria. D-OBS was validated using measured F2 -isoprostanes and metabolites. High E-DII score and low D-OBS represent a more proinflammatory and prooxidant diet, respectively, and associations of quartiles of each index with breast cancer (BC) risk were estimated using multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression. There were 2619 BCs diagnosed at least 1 year after enrollment (mean follow-up 8.4 years). There was no overall association between E-DII and BC risk, whereas there was a suggestive inverse association for the highest vs lowest quartile of D-OBS (HR 0.92 [95% CI, 0.81-1.03]). The highest quartile of E-DII was associated with risk of triple-negative BC (HR 1.53 [95% CI, 0.99-2.35]). When the two indices were combined, a proinflammatory/prooxidant diet (highest tertile of E-DII and lowest tertile of D-OBS) was associated with increased risk for all BC (HR 1.13 [95% CI, 1.00-1.27]) and for triple-negative BC (1.72 [95% CI, 1.10-2.70]), compared to an antiinflammatory/antioxidant diet (lowest tertile of E-DII and highest tertile of D-OBS). Diets with increased inflammatory potential and reduced oxidative balance were positively associated with overall and triple-negative BC.

PURPOSE: The oxidative balance score (OBS) comprises dietary and non-dietary lifestyle pro-oxidants and antioxidants. Elevated serum γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) level has currently emerged as a biomarker of oxidative stress. In this study, we examined whether OBS was inversely associated with serum GGT level and whether OBS could be a useful marker to predict GGT among Korean adults. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was based on data obtained from the 2010 and 2011 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. 2087 men and 2071 women were included in final analysis. The OBS was divided into five equal interval categories, and GGT was dichotomized into low and high using its sex-specific median value. Multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between OBS categories and high GGT. RESULTS: Compared with the lowest OBS category as reference, the multivariable adjusted ORs (95% CIs) for the highest OBS category of men and women were 0.05 (0.01-0.19) and 0.27 (0.09-0.78), respectively (p for trend <0.01). CONCLUSION: A higher OBS that indicates a predominance of antioxidant over pro-oxidant exposure was strongly inversely associated with GGT level among Korean adults.
