Official title
The Relationship Between Dietary Antioxidant Capacity, Inflammatory Response, and Nutritional Parameters in Type 2 Diabetes Management
Overview
The goal of this observational, cross-sectional study is to evaluate the relationships between dietary total antioxidant capacity, systemic inflammatory response markers, and nutritional parameters in adult patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM). Participants will be classified into controlled (HbA1c \< %7) and uncontrolled (HbA1c ≥ %7) diabetes groups based on their glycemic control. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does dietary antioxidant capacity affect systemic inflammation levels and metabolic parameters? Is there a relationship between nutritional risk status and inflammatory response in T2DM patients?
Detailed description
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is defined not only as a carbohydrate metabolism disorder but also as a chronic, low-grade inflammatory condition. In this pathological process, the total capacity of dietary antioxidants is a determining factor in maintaining metabolic control. This study will evaluate dietary antioxidant intake using the Antioxidant Food Frequency Questionnaire to calculate the Dietary Antioxidant Index (DAI) and Composite Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI). Furthermore, systemic inflammation will be comprehensively evaluated using novel hematological and biochemical indices including the Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII), Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI), Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), Platelet/Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR), and C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR). Nutritional status will be assessed using NRS-2002 and MUST screening tools.
