abstract = {Dietary patterns (DPs) are an essential tool to analyze the relationship between diet
and health as they have presented an association with the incidence of chronic non-communicable
diseases. Therefore, the aim of this study was the identification and characterization of DPs and
their association with cardiovascular risk factors. For this purpose, a cross-sectional descriptive
study was carried out in 165 Mexican adults, including dietary intakes derived from a validated
food frequency questionnaire, clinical history, anthropometry, and biochemical biomarkers using
standardized procedures for glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-c, and HDL-c. DPs were
identified through principal component analysis and ordinal logistic regression was used to examine
associations between DPs and cardiovascular disease risk factors. Three DPs were identified: Mexican
Fast-Food, Variety-Food, and Healthy-Economic, with a high prevalence of overweight and obesity
(78%). Having a high adherence to a Mexican Fast-Food pattern (OR 1.71 CI 1.4–2.8), being sedentary
(OR 4.85 2.32–10.15) and smoking (0R 6.4 CI 2.40–16.9) increased the risk of having a high scale
of risk factors (four or more risk factors simultaneously). In conclusion, the Mexican Fast-Food
pattern showed an increase in the risk of having multiple risk factors, while a sedentary lifestyle and
overeating were largely responsible for the prevalence of overweight and obesity in this group of
Mexican adults.},
