description Abstract The identification of dietary patterns is a topic of growing study in nutritional epidemiology. Scientific literature indicates that certain dietary patterns act as an exposure factor to certain chronic diseases and that the level of adherence to a pattern may be affected by the socioeconomic and cultural characteristics of each region. The dietary patterns approach has been scarcely studied in Colombia. This work aimed to identify dietary patterns in the adult population of Colombia in 2015 and to analyze their geographical distribution. An observational-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted, using data from the 2015 National Nutritional Situation Survey (ENSIN) of Colombia (mixed multi-stage probabilistic sampling). A subsample of 8959 people aged 18-64 years was extracted, whose dietary intake data were obtained by using the 24-hour recall method. A factorial analysis of principal components was used to characterize the dietary patterns, based on 15 selected food groups. Sample adequacy was tested by using the KMO index. An individual adherence score was estimated for each pattern through regression, and maps illustrating the population adherence level (average score) to each pattern at the departmental level (n=33) were constructed. ENSIN follows the ethical standards of the Declaration of Helsinki. Informed consent was obtained by the Instituto Colombiano de Bienestar Familiar. Four dietary patterns were identified (total variance explained=41%): "Plant-based drinks and non-meat proteins" pattern (fruit juice, infusions, eggs and legumes as dominant groups), "Traditional" Pattern (fats/oils, unprocessed meats, starchy vegetables), "Soft drinks and snacking" pattern (sugary drinks, meat products, and snacks), and "Prudent" pattern (dairy, fruits, and non-starchy vegetables). The spatial distribution of the levels of adherence was differential by dietary pattern. In particular, the Prudent pattern showed higher levels of adherence in highly populated and urbanized departments, and in turn, with better socioeconomic conditions. Concluding, the identified patterns summarize some key characteristics of the usual diet of adults in Colombia. Their spatial distribution suggests that the adherence to these patterns could be conditioned by underlying demographic, socioeconomic, or cultural factors.

Resumen:  La identificación de patrones alimentarios es un tópico de creciente estudio en epidemiología nutricional. La literatura científica indica que determinados patrones alimentarios actúan como factor de exposición a ciertas enfermedades de curso crónico, y que el nivel  de adherencia a un patrón puede verse afectado por las características socioeconómicas y culturales de cada región. El enfoque de patrones alimentarios ha sido escasamente estudiado en Colombia. Este trabajo tuvo como objetivo identificar patrones alimentarios en la población adulta de Colombia en 2015 y analizar su distribución geográfica. Se condujo un estudio observacional-analítico, transversal, empleando los datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Situación Nutricional (ENSIN) 2015 de Colombia (muestreo probabilístico mixto multi-etápico).  Se extrajo una submuestra de 8959 personas de 18-64 años  con datos de ingesta dietaria obtenidos mediante método de recordatorio de 24 horas. Se utilizó un análisis factorial de componentes principales para caracterizar los patrones dietarios, con base en 15 grupos alimentarios seleccionados y evaluando adecuación muestral mediante el índice KMO. Se estimó un score individual de adherencia para cada patrón mediante regresión, y se construyeron mapas que ilustran el nivel de adherencia poblacional (score promedio) a cada patrón a escala departamental (n=33). La ENSIN sigue los recaudos éticos de la Declaración de Helsinki, incluyendo consentimientos informados obtenidos por el Instituto Colombiano de Bienestar Familiar. Cuatro patrones alimentarios fueron identificados (varianza total explicada= 41%): Patrón “Bebidas naturales y proteínas no cárnicas” (jugo de frutas, infusiones, huevos y legumbres como grupos dominantes), Patrón “Tradicional” (grasas/aceites, carnes no procesadas, vegetales amiláceos), Patrón “Refrescos y snacks” (bebidas azucaradas, productos cárnicos y snacks) y Patrón “Prudente” (lácteos, frutas y vegetales no amiláceos). La distribución espacial de los niveles de adherencia resultó diferencial según patrón. Particularmente, el patrón Prudente evidenció mayores niveles de adherencia en departamentos altamente poblados y urbanizados, y a su vez, con mejores condiciones socioeconómicas. En conclusión, los patrones identificados resumen algunos aspectos característicos de la dieta habitual de adultos en Colombia. La distribución espacial de los mismos sugiere que la adherencia a estos patrones podría estar condicionada por factores demográficos, socioeconómicos o culturales subyacentes. .
