BACKGROUND: This population-based case-control study evaluated nutrient
intake as a risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD) among people aged >
or =50 years in metropolitan Detroit. METHODS: Cases (n = 126) were
diagnosed between 1991 and 1995 and neurologist-confirmed. Controls (n =
432) were frequency-matched for sex, age (+/-5 years) and race. Using a
standardized food frequency questionnaire, subjects reported the foods they
ate within the past year. RESULTS: Estimating the association between PD
and risk of being in the highest versus the lowest intake quartile, there
were elevated odds ratios for total fat (OR 1.94, 95% confidence interval
[CI] : 1.05-3.58), cholesterol (OR 2.11, 95% CI: 1.14-3.90), lutein (OR
2.52, 95% CI: 1.32-4.84) and iron (OR 1.88, 95% CI: 1.05-3.38).
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest an association of PD with high intake of
total fat, saturated fats, cholesterol, lutein and iron.
