The participants aged between 20 to 65 years old without history of cardiovascular disease and cancer were selected. After exclusion of missing data, a total of 145,695 participants were remained for analysis. According to dietary patterns, participants were categorised into five group: animal protein, cereal, vegetable and fruit, oil and sugar dietary pattern. Statistical analysis was used SAS version 9.3.

After adjusted for age, body mass index, waist hip ratio, occupation, education, marriage, smoking status, drinking habits, betel nuts chewing and exercise habits, the intake of animal protein, oil and sugar dietary pattern was positively associated with white blood cell concentrations, and the intake of vegetable and fruit dietary pattern was negatively associated with white blood cell concentrations in both genders.
