Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of mortality globally, and dietary patterns, including grain intake, are often implicated in its development. This meta-analysis examined refined grain consumption as a distinct category to clarify its relationship with CVD risk, analyzing data from 17 prospective cohort studies (>875,000 participants).

Several grain dietary patterns are associated with better diet quality and improved shortfall nutrient intakes in US children and adolescents: a study focusing on the 2015–2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (February 2017)
This study examined grain consumption patterns among U.S. children and adolescents (ages 2–18, N = 8,367) and their association with diet quality and intake of shortfall nutrients identified in the 2015–2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA). Eight grain food patterns were analyzed using NHANES 2005–2010 data.
Consumption of Certain Grain Food Patterns is Associated With Improved Diet Quality and Nutrient Intakes in US Adults: A NHANES 2005-2010 Analysis (April 2015)
Grain-based foods are an integral part of many diets, providing essential nutrients and contributing to diet quality. This study used NHANES 2005–2010 data to evaluate the association between different grain food patterns and nutrient intake, diet quality, and health metrics in U.S. adults aged 19 and older.
