Item The mediating effect of dietary patterns on the association between mother’s education level and the physical aggression of five-year-old children: a population-based cohort study(2020-05-15) Wu, Wen-Chi; Lin, Ching-I; Li, Yi-Fan; Chang, Ling-Yin; Chiang, Tung-liangAbstract Background Relatively few studies have investigated the effects of diet on behavior problems among preschoolers, particularly, physical aggression. In addition, children raised by poorly educated mothers usually have a higher probability of developing negative outcomes. Additionally, highly educated mothers have a higher probability of providing more healthy foods for their children. Thus, mothers providing healthy foods might mitigate children’s behavior problems. The study aims to examine whether preschoolers’ dietary pattern, as a manipulable factor, mediates the association between maternal education level and physical aggression. Methods Data came from the Taiwan Birth Cohort Study (TBCS), a nationally representative population-based cohort study, which included 18,513 five-year-old Taiwanese children. Mothers and primary caregivers reported the information on preschoolers’ physical aggression and food consumption at age 5 and maternal education level at age 6 months. Two dietary patterns, namely a healthy diet and a high-fat-sugar-salt (HFSS) diet, were retrieved by exploratory factor analysis. Mediation hypotheses were tested by a series of multiple regression models conducted using the PROCESS macro of SAS 9.4. All models were adjusted for children’s sex, parental marital status, household income, mental distress at age 5 and children’s physical aggression at age 3. Results Maternal education positively linked to healthy dietary patterns (B = 0.014, p = 0.002) which was negatively associated with preschoolers’ physical aggression (B = -0.096, p = 0.013), and it is negatively related to the HFSS dietary pattern (B = -0.042, p = 0.002) which was directly positively associated with preschoolers’ physical aggression (B = 0.123, p = 0.008). The association between maternal education and preschoolers’ physical aggression was partially mediated by preschoolers’ healthy (B = -0.001, p < .001) and HFSS (B = -0.005, p = <.001) dietary patterns, respectively. The R-square of the mediation model is 0.178. Conclusions Preschoolers’ dietary patterns directly associate with their physical aggression. In addition, mothers with poor education may provide less healthy foods and more unhealthy foods to their children, which may increase the level of physical aggression. The results imply partial mediating effects of dietary patterns between maternal education and physical aggression. It is suggested that a parent-based nutritional education program focusing on healthy meal preparation for poor educated mothers might be beneficial for preschoolers’ healthy development.Item 長期攝取糙米對高中排球員抗氧化能力之影響(2016) 林靜怡; Lin, Ching-I目前常見的維生素增補劑(如維生素E、C與β-胡蘿蔔素)不乏出現在抗氧化與降低肌肉損傷的研究當中,但對於長期食用具有抗氧化食品對於抗氧化能力影響尚不清楚。目的:探討長期食用糙米對於高中女子排球運動員的總抗氧化能力與肌肉損傷之影響。方法:招募兩支高中女子甲組排球隊,各11位隊員,一組以糙米為主食的球隊(糙米組),且已經連續以糙米為主食一~三年;另一組為無食用糙米的球隊(對照組)。兩組各別進行為期五天的平日訓練,每天上下午各三小時與晨操一小時半的輕度體能運動,結束五天訓練後完整休息24小時。第一天開始訓練前進行第一次抽血 (pre),第五天訓練後立即進行第二次抽血 (pt0),休息24小時後第三次抽血 (pt24h)。每一血液樣本均檢測總抗氧化狀態 (TAC)、肌酸激酶 (CK)、乳酸脫氫酶 (LDH),並以二因子混合設計變異數分析考驗糙米組與對照組之差異。結果:兩組分別在TAS、CK與LDH皆無交互作用;在各組內三個採血點間有顯著差異:TAC pt0顯著高於pre (p<.05); pre顯著高於pt24h (p<.05)。在CK與LDH中,pt0與pt24h皆顯著高於pre (p<.05)。結論:長期食用糙米主食無法明顯提升球員的總抗氧化能力,推論平日食用量無法如增補抗氧化劑一樣在生理上有立即性的影響,亦可能與糙米中米糠層之植酸鈣鎂影響鐵質與鈣質吸收影響所致,則有待日後再繼續探討。
