Interaction between the dietary indices and PPAR‐γ Pro12Ala gene variants on cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Abstract

We investigated the interaction between peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma (PPAR‐γ) Pro12Ala polymorphism and healthy eating index (HEI), Dietary Quality Index‐International (DQI‐I), and dietary phytochemical index (DPI) on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
