Consumption of other specific dietary fatty acid and cardiovascular disease.

Other specific fatty acids and total cardiovascular disease (CVD).

No data was found.


Other specific fatty acids and coronary heart disease (CHD).

Results: Data was provided by 3 male cohorts, about 3 different fatty acids.
Arachidonic acid: No significant association was found with CHD risk in the only available cohort (Oglesby P [1]).
Elaidic acid: A significantly increased risk of CHD mortality was found in the only available cohort (Pietinen P [19]).
Oleic acid: A significant protective effect was found against CHD mortality (RR, but not the trend) in one cohort (Pietinen P [19]), but no association was found in the other cohort (Goldbourt U [2]).
Effect modification: No data was found.
Subjects with prevalent disease: No data was found.

Conclusion: Some significant effects were found, but the amount of available data is limited. Inconclusive evidence was found for an association between consumption of dietary arachidonic acid, elaidic acid, or oleic acid and coronary heart disease.
