... factors including age, gender, lipid profile, allergy and breast feeding are studied to examine the effect on CRP level. There was no significant correlation between age and the level of CRP however young adults had significantly higher level of CRP than older adults (P <0.05, students T-test) (Table 4). No association was seen between gender, lipid profile, allergy and breast feeding and CRP level ( Table 5, Table 6, Table 7). ...Citations
... Although some reports showed a positive correlation of DII with LDL and a negative correlation with HDL, there are some other reports that showed a different correlation between DII and HDL. Correspondingly, they reported that their results may not be representative of the population [64][65][66]. Also, no association was observed between DII and TG [65,66]. ...

Background
The present study aimed to assess dietary total antioxidant capacity (TAC), dietary phytochemical intake (PI), and dietary inflammatory index (DII) in patients with morbid obesity who are candidates of bariatric surgery and their association with anthropometric and biochemical parameters.Methods and MaterialsOne hundred seventy patients with morbid obesity who were referred to surgery clinic of Firoozgar Hospital were enrolled in the study. Ideal body weight and adjusted ideal body weight were calculated. The dietary data were collected using a food frequency questionnaire. Anthropometrics and biochemical parameters were assessed. A p-value of <0.05 was considered significant.ResultsThe strongest correlations of DII with dietary intakes and anthropometric and biochemical biomarkers were found for iron (p<0.0001). Significant association was also observed for ferritin (p=0.02) and transferrin (p=0.02). In terms of PI, The strongest associations were also found for iron (p<0.0001). Additionally, the value of body mass index (BMI) showed significant correlation with PI (p=0.04). The correlations of dietary total antioxidant indices with dietary intakes and anthropometric and biochemical biomarkers were assessed. Non-significant correlation was found between fasting blood sugar (FBS), hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), vitamin B12, and vitamin D3 with ORAC index. Significant strong correlation showed for the value of iron in both ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) and Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) indices (p<0.0001).Conclusion
We find statistical significance correlation for dietary PI and BMI. The inflammatory and antioxidant properties of diet were not related to biochemical markers associated with obesity.

... Although this study found no association between DII with other cardiometabolic risk factors as we expected, other studies also did not observe such an association [20,[50][51][52][53]. Noteworthy, the mean of the DII (0.15) of our sample did not characterize a pro-inflammatory diet in general, but in the ORISCAV-LUX study conducted with 1352 people they also did not present a pro-inflammatory diet in general [20]. ...
