“…The inconsistent results observed in previous studies could be attributed to differences in demographics, sample sizes, and factors considered in the analysis. [ 27 ] For instance, recent studies have highlighted the importance of distinguishing between populations with varying BMIs in epidemiological research on osteoporosis. [ 28 , 29 ] However, many studies have employed statistical analyses that treat all populations equally, leading to potentially misleading results.…”

The association between coffee intake and bone mineral density (BMD) remains a subject of debate in epidemiological research. Furthermore, the potential relationship between BMD and urine caffeine or caffeine metabolites has not yet been explored. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the possible association between BMD and urine caffeine and its metabolites in U.S. adults. We employed multivariate linear and logistic regression models to analyze the relationship between urine caffeine and caffeine metabolites and lumbar BMD using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2009 to 2014. Additionally, fitted smoothing curves and generalized additive models were used. After adjusting for several factors, we found no significant association between urine caffeine and its metabolites and BMD. However, subgroup analyses stratified by gender and ethnicity showed that the relationship between urine caffeine and its metabolites and lumbar BMD remained consistent. Our investigation revealed that the inflection points for the U-shaped relationship between urinary theophylline and paraxanthine and BMD were observed at levels of 0.006 mmol/L for theophylline and 0.052 mmol/L for paraxanthine. In this cross-sectional study, we found no significant correlation between urine caffeine and its metabolites and BMD. However, more research is required to confirm our findings, as well as to investigate the underlying mechanisms.

“…38 Many sociodemographic, clinical and dietary factors might contribute to these misperceptions of dietary quality. 35 In Xue et al's study, each 10-year increase in age was associated with greater odds of being incorrectly optimistic about dietary quality, 38 while different age groups had a differential effect on being incorrectly optimistic in Variyam et al's study of the general population. 36 While there are only few studies examining predictors of misperceptions of dietary quality, 36,38 previous research is inconclusive regarding associations between dietary quality perception (whether correct or not) and demographic factors such as age [38][39][40][41] and sex.…”

BackgroundMany people living with and beyond cancer (LWBC) do not meet dietary recommendations. To implement a healthier diet, people LWBC must perceive a need to improve their diet.MethodsParticipants included people diagnosed with breast, prostate or colorectal cancer in the UK. Two binary logistic regression models were conducted with perceived need for dietary change as the outcome (need to improve vs. no need). Predictor variables included demographic and clinical characteristics, receipt of dietary advice, and either body mass index (BMI) or adherence to seven relevant World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) dietary recommendations.ResultsThe sample included 5835 responses. Only 31% perceived a need to improve their diet. Being younger (odds ratio [OR] 0.95, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 94–0.95), female (OR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.15–1.53), not of white ethnicity (OR = 1.8, 95% CI = 1.48–2.27), not married/cohabiting (OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.16–1.52) and having received dietary advice (OR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.43–1.86) was associated with an increased odds of perceiving a need to improve diet. This association was also seen for participants with two or more comorbidities (OR = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.09–1.57), those not meeting the recommendations for fruit and vegetables (OR = 0.47, 95% CI = 0.41–0.55), fat (OR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.58–0.77), and sugar (OR = 0.86, 95% CI = 0.75–0.98) in the dietary components model and those who had a higher BMI (OR = 1.53, 95% CI = 1.32–1.77) in the BMI model.ConclusionsMost of this sample of people LWBC did not perceive a need to improve their diet. More research is needed to understand the reasons for this and to target these reasons in dietary interventions.
