UK Biobank Cohort Data on Dietary Flavonoid Intake and Atherosclerosis Risk

Table 1 from a study by Jing Tian, published on figshare in March 2026, under a CC-BY-4.0 license. The dataset likely contains results from a prospective cohort study of 207,571 UK Biobank participants, analyzing associations between dietary flavonoid intake and incident atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, and all-cause mortality.

Use Cases

• Modeling the association between flavonoid intake quartiles and atherosclerosis risk based on hazard ratios.
• Conducting subgroup analysis on flavonoid effects for middle-aged adults (55-69 years).
• Investigating the protective relationship of specific flavonoid subclasses like flavan-3-ols and anthocyanins.
• Analyzing trends in atherosclerosis prevalence across different levels of flavonoid consumption.

Strengths

• Based on a large prospective cohort of 207,571 adults from the UK Biobank.
• Results include specific hazard ratios and confidence intervals for total flavonoids and subclasses.
• Study includes subgroup and age-stratified analyses, as mentioned in the description.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is a 30.7 KB DOCX file, suggesting it is a summary table rather than the raw underlying data.
