In sensitivity analyses removing MCP-1 from the overall IS, the association between protein intake and the modified IS was attenuated but was borderline significant in the fully adjusted model (Q1 compared with Q4: 0.82 ± 0.24 compared with 0.42 ± 0.24; P -trend = 0.049), suggesting associations with MCP-1 were predominantly responsible for the observed association with the overall IS.
