| Objective:To study the diet and dietary patterns of Uighur college students,and toexplore the possible correlation between dietary patterns and uygur’classification ofhilit.Methods:The Uighurs’ freshmen of an university in2012were chosen to get dietaryintake in the last year with food frequency questionnaires,to do physical examination andhumoral type identification.Principal Components Analysis(PCA) of Fator Analysis(FA)was used to identify dietary patterns. Then descripe the of distribution of four kinds ofhilit in Uighur college students and analyse the relationship of dietary patterns andhumoral type.All analyses were performed by SPSS17.0. Results:1. Rice and products,flour and related products, grains and beans, aquatic products, eggs of boys are higher thangirls,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.001); compared to the recommendedby Chinese residents balanced diet pagoda, cereals of girls is more consistent with therecommended amount but those of boys are slightly more than the recommended; theintake of potato and aquatic products are all in line with the recommended; the intake ofmixed bean grains, algae and dairy food are serious lower than the lowest limit of therecommended amount;vegetable are relatively abundant;the average daily intake of eggsand dried fruit, livestock meat are slightly higher than the recommendedamount,however,daily intake of fruit is more than twice the recommended amount.2.Sixdietary patterns were established and labeled to high-quality protein pattern (mainlyaquatic products and eggs), Xinjiang pattern (mainly dairy, fruits, vegetables and driedfruit), the western pattern (snacks and drinksmainly), the traditional pattern (mainlycereals, beans, grains and livestock meat), healthy pattern (mainly beans and soy, algaeand animal offal), dietary fiber pattern (tubers mainly).3.The distribution of Uygurstudents humoral type in this study: boys, Qan Hilit (54.9%)> Sapra Hilit (24.3%)> Savda Hilit (16.3%)> Balgham Hilit (4.5%);girls, Qan Hilit42.7%)>Savda Hilit(26.0%)>Balgham Hili(t16.3%)>Sapra Hilit(15.0%);for uighur students in different gender, thedistribution of uygur hilit are with a statistically significant difference (P<0.01), for uighurstudents of different geographical dimension,difference are also significant (P <0.05).4.Sapra Hilit is associated with the low health pattern score possibly(P<0.05,OR<1);Balgham Hilit has a certain correlation the high high-quality protein dietary pattern score(P<0.05),the low traditional dietary pattern score (P<0.05,OR<1)and a low ofspecial dietary pattern score(P<0.05,OR<1); high traditional dietary pattern score areassociated with Qan Hilit(P<0.05,OR>1); Savda Hilit has something to do with thehigh-healthy dietary pattern(P<0.05,OR>1). Conclutions: The dietary patterns ofUighur college students can be divided into six main types: high-quality protein pattern,Xinjiang pattern, the western pattern, the traditional pattern, healthy pattern, dietary fiberpattern; the humoral type of uighur college students and dietary patterns have somerelevance. |
