Background
Dietary inflammatory index (DIP) is a new dietary index designed to
evaluate individuals’ diets. In addition, adhesion molecules are
important biomarkers for assessing endothelium inflammation that they
related to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Also, there is no
study for assessing the association between adhesion molecules and DIP
until now as well as other studies that assessed the relationship
between dietary inflammatory index or DIP have controversy.
