This study aimed to elucidate whether dietary amino acids (AAs) composition is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and investigate how serum AAs profiles mediated this association. Two prospective cohorts of 1750 4024 adults were enrolled. Dietary compositions index (AACI) was developed reflect the overall quality composition. Multivariate linear regression logistic models used exam...
