Background: Previous studies have shown that inflammatory and antioxidant dietary patterns can modify the risk of COPD, yet few studies have examined the association of these diets with its early signs (PRISm), and the potential role of metabolic disorders remains to be elucidated. Methods: Data from 9529 individuals who participated in the 2007–2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were analyzed. The Dietary Inflammation Index (DII) and the Dietary Antioxidant Composite Index (CDAI) were assessed using 24-h dietary recall, multiple metabolic indicators were calculated according to biochemical markers, and lung function parameters defined PRISm cases. Individual and joint effects of DII and CDAI were evaluated by generalized linear models and binary logistic regression models, and mediation effects of metabolic indicators were further explored by causal mediation analysis. Results: Increased DII was associated with decreased lung function (FEV1: β = −18.82, FVC: β = −29.2; OR = 1.04) and increased metabolic indicators (β = 0.316, 0.036, 0.916, 0.033, and 0.145 on MAP, UA, TC, TyG, and MS, respectively). Contrary to this, CDAI were positively and negatively associated with lung function (FEV1: β = 3.42; FVC: β = 4.91; PRISm: OR = 0.99) and metabolic indicators (β < 0), respectively. Joint effects of DII and CDAI indicated the minimal hazard effects of DII on TyG (β = −0.11), FEV1 (β = 72.62), FVC (β = 122.27), and PRISm (OR = 0.79) in subjects with high CDAI when compared with those with low CDAI (low DII + high CDAI vs. high DII + low CDAI). Furthermore, TyG mediated 13.74 %, 8.29 %, and 21.70 % of DII- and 37.30 %, 20.90 %, and 12.32 % of CDAI-FEV1, -FVC, and -PRISm associations, respectively. Conclusions: These findings indicated that CDAI can attenuate the adverse effects of DII on metabolic disorders and lung function decline, which provides new insight for diet modification in preventing early lung dysfunction.
