Fish/seafood consumption is a source of mercury; other dietary sources are not well described. This cross-sectional study used National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2012 data. Participants self-reported consuming fish/seafood (N = 5427) or not (N = 1770) within the past 30 days. Whole blood total mercury (THg), methylmercury (MeHg), and urinary mercury (UHg) were determined. Diet was assessed using 24 h recall. Adjusted regression models predicted mercury biomarker concentrations with recent food consumption, while controlling for age, sex, education, and race/ethnicity. Geometric mean THg was 0.89 µg/L (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.78, 1.02) (seafood consumers) and 0.31 µg/L (95% CI: 0.28, 0.34) (non-seafood consumers); MeHg and UHg concentrations follow similar patterns. In adjusted regressions among seafood consumers, significant associations were observed between mercury biomarkers with multiple foods, including fish/seafood, wine, rice, vegetables/vegetable oil, liquor, and beans/nuts/soy. Among non-seafood consumers, higher THg was significantly associated with mixed rice dishes, vegetables/vegetable oil, liquor, and approached statistical significance with wine (p < 0.10); higher MeHg was significantly associated with wine and higher UHg was significantly associated with mixed rice dishes. Fish/seafood consumption is the strongest dietary predictor of mercury biomarker concentrations; however, consumption of wine, rice, vegetables/vegetable oil, or liquor may also contribute, especially among non-seafood consumers.

海鲜，葡萄酒，米饭，蔬菜和其他与海鲜和非海鲜消费者中与汞生物标志物有关的食品：NHANES 2011-2012。

鱼/海鲜消费是汞的来源；其他饮食来源没有得到很好的描述。这项横断面研究使用了2011-2012年美国国家健康与营养检查调查（NHANES）数据。参与者在过去30天内报告了自己报告的食用鱼/海鲜（N = 5427）或否（N = 1770）。测定全血总汞（THg），甲基汞（MeHg）和尿液汞（UHg）。使用24小时记忆评估饮食。调整后的回归模型预测了汞的生物标志物浓度与最近食用食物的关系，同时控制了年龄，性别，教育程度和种族/民族。几何平均THg为0.89 µg / L（95％置信区间（CI）：0.78，1.02）（海鲜消费者）和0.31 µg / L（95％CI：0.28，0.34）（非海鲜消费者）；MeHg和UHg浓度遵循相似的模式。在海鲜消费者之间的调整回归中，汞生物标志物与多种食品之间存在显着关联，包括鱼类/海鲜，葡萄酒，大米，蔬菜/植物油，酒和豆类/坚果/大豆。在非海鲜消费者中，较高的THg与混合米饭，蔬菜/植物油，白酒显着相关，并且与葡萄酒接近统计显着性（p <0.10）；较高的MeHg与葡萄酒显着相关，而较高的UHg与混合米饭显着相关。鱼类/海鲜消费是汞生物标志物浓度最强的饮食预测指标；但是，葡萄酒，大米，蔬菜/植物油或白酒的消费也可能有所贡献，特别是在非海鲜消费者中。蔬菜/植物油，白酒和豆类/坚果/大豆。在非海鲜消费者中，较高的THg与混合米饭，蔬菜/植物油，白酒显着相关，并且与葡萄酒接近统计学意义（p <0.10）；较高的MeHg与葡萄酒显着相关，而较高的UHg与混合米饭显着相关。鱼类/海鲜消费是汞生物标志物浓度最强的饮食预测指标；但是，葡萄酒，大米，蔬菜/植物油或白酒的消费也可能有贡献，特别是在非海鲜消费者中。蔬菜/植物油，白酒和豆类/坚果/大豆。在非海鲜消费者中，较高的THg与混合米饭，蔬菜/植物油，白酒显着相关，并且与葡萄酒接近统计学意义（p <0.10）；较高的MeHg与葡萄酒显着相关，而较高的UHg与混合米饭显着相关。鱼类/海鲜消费是汞生物标志物浓度最强的饮食预测指标；但是，葡萄酒，大米，蔬菜/植物油或白酒的消费也可能有贡献，特别是在非海鲜消费者中。较高的MeHg与葡萄酒显着相关，而较高的UHg与混合米饭显着相关。鱼类/海鲜消费是汞生物标志物浓度最强的饮食预测指标；但是，葡萄酒，大米，蔬菜/植物油或白酒的消费也可能有贡献，特别是在非海鲜消费者中。较高的MeHg与葡萄酒显着相关，而较高的UHg与混合米饭显着相关。鱼类/海鲜消费是汞生物标志物浓度最强的饮食预测指标；但是，葡萄酒，大米，蔬菜/植物油或白酒的消费也可能有贡献，特别是在非海鲜消费者中。
