However, it is important to develop an index that considers not only the amount of dietary fatty acids but also the structure, fluidity and melting point of them. In the current study we investigated the association between a novel dietary lipophilic index (LI) with metabolic profile and dyslipidemia in a community based study in Tabriz-Iran.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Dietary data were collected using a validated, 79-food item, semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, and dietary LI was calculated. Anthropometric variables were measured and metabolic profile including blood sugar, serum lipids and liver enzymes were assessed. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the adult treatment panel (ATP) III criteria.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The mean age of the participants was 42.53\u2009\u00b1\u200912.03\u2009years and most of the participants were women. Mean of dietary LI was 34.99\u2009\u00b1\u20096.91. Higher dietary LI was associated with higher body mass index (BMI) (\u03b2\u2009=\u20090.17, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.04), waist circumference (\u03b2\u2009=\u20090.18, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.01) and systolic blood pressure (\u03b2\u2009=\u20090.27, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.01). Also LI was increased with increasing waist circumference (0.001), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (0.001), and negatively associated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (0.001).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The novel dietary LI was considered as a useful tool in prediction of cardio-metabolic risk factors including general and central obesity, dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome in a population-based study in Iran.
