American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol. 87, No. 1, 168-174, January 2008
Results: For every 10-g/d increase in saturated fat intake, IMT was
0.03 mm higher (P = 0.01) after multivariate adjustment. A 1-g/d
higher intake of trans fat was associated with a 0.03-mm higher IMT (P
= 0.02) after multivariate adjustment. The ratio of polyunsaturated to
saturated fat (P:S) was inversely associated with IMT after
multivariate adjustment (change in IMT: â0.06 mm; P < 0.01). Saturated
and trans fat intakes were independently associated with IMT thickness
(change in IMT: 0.03 mm; P < 0.01 and 0.02, respectively; P for
interaction = 0.01). Polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, cholesterol,
and total fat intakes were unrelated to IMT
