![]() ![]() Tea consumption is reported to be a protective factor of the cardiovascular diseases, Parkinson’s disease and several kinds of cancers. Nowadays, the tea drinking behave is considered to be associated with the development and progression of different kinds of diseases. Several kinds of antioxidants, including flavonoid, catechin, thearubigin and theaflavin, exist in the tea. Tea is the most popular beverage in the world. The realization of the relationship between these modifiable factors and incidence of fractures would provide more effective strategy for the fracture prevention in the future. Besides, the tobacco exposure, coffee intake, calcium and vitamin D intake and history of fractures are also considered to be associated with the risk of fractures. Several risk factors have been detected including the lower body mass density (BMD) and the increased body mass index (BMI). ![]() The following large-sample and well-designed studies are required to confirm the existing conclusions.įractures are important causes of healthy damage and economic loss in the whole world. In conclusion, tea consumption might be not associated with the risk of fractures. Because of the varied and limited data of the included studies, we are not able to conduct the dose-response meta-analysis. In the subgroup analyses, no significant association was detected in neither cohort studies (n = 3 OR, 0.97 95% CI, 0.89-1.06) nor case-control studies (n = 6 OR, 0.91 95% CI, 0.70-1.19), respectively. The pooled OR of 9 observational studies for the tea consumption on risk of fracture was 0.89 (95% CI, 0.78-1.04). ![]() The odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled using a random-effects model. The results indicated that a total of 9 studies involving 147,950 individuals that examined the association between tea consumption and risk of fractures were included in this meta-analysis. A meta-analysis was conducted by the STATA software. Observational studies that reported an estimate of the association between tea drinking and incidence of fractures were included. In this study, a comprehensive literature search was conducted in Pubmed, Embase and reference lists of the relevant articles. The objective of this meta-analysis is to determine the effect of tea drinking on the risk of fractures. The conclusions of observational studies on tea consumption and fracture risk are still inconsistent. Fractures are important causes of healthy damage and economic loss nowadays. ![]()
