Effects of dietary fatty acids and carbohydrates on the ratio of serum total to HDL cholesterol and on serum lipids and apolipoproteins: a meta-analysis of 60 controlled trials
TL;DR: The effects of dietary fats on total:HDL cholesterol may differ markedly from their effects on LDL, and the effects of fats on these risk markers should not in themselves be considered to reflect changes in risk but should be confirmed by prospective observational studies or clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acid composition of adipose tissue and blood in humans and its use as a biomarker of dietary intake.
TL;DR: Analysis of evidence from a wide variety of cross-sectional and intervention studies confirms that fatty acid biomarkers can complement dietary assessment methodologies and have the potential to be used more quantitatively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty Acids Composition of Vegetable Oils and Its Contribution to Dietary Energy Intake and Dependence of Cardiovascular Mortality on Dietary Intake of Fatty Acids
TL;DR: The significant relationship between the reported data of total fat, SFAs, MUFAs and PUFAs intakes for adults and mortality caused by coronary heart diseases (CHD) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in twelve countries has not been confirmed by Spearman’s correlations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acid composition of goat muscles and fat depots: a review.
TL;DR: Need for further experimentation to characterize interactions among factors such as breed, age and nutritional conditions in the fatty acid composition of carcass lipids of goats so as to gain a fuller understanding of goat meat quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of fats and fatty acids on blood lipids in humans: an overview.
TL;DR: Replacement of hard fats rich in lauric, myristic, or palmitic acids or trans fatty acids by unsaturated oils will lower LDL, but replacement by carbohydrates will in addition decrease HDL and increase triglycerides.

Enzymatic determination of total serum cholesterol.
TL;DR: An enzymatic method is described for determination of total serum cholesterol by use of a single aqueous reagent and has excellent precision.

Direct transesterification of all classes of lipids in a one-step reaction.
Guy Lepage,Claude C. Roy +1 more
TL;DR: This one-step direct transesterification procedure carried out in methanol-benzene 4:1 with acetyl chloride is superior to currently used methods not onlyBecause of its simplicity and speed, but also because of its added precision.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative Effects of Dietary Fat on Serum Cholesterol in Man
TL;DR: It is shown that minimal levels of serum cholesterol were achieved with oils with an iodine number of about 100, and that more highly unsaturated oils were not more effective, which implies that monounsaturated acids are half as effective as the diene, linoleic acid, the primary polyunsaturated acid in vegetable oils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of dietary trans fatty acids on high-density and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in healthy subjects.
TL;DR: The effect of trans fatty acids on the serum lipoprotein profile is at least as unfavorable as that of the cholesterol-raising saturated fatty acids, because they not only raise LDL cholesterol levels but also lower HDL cholesterol levels.

Comparison of effects of dietary saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids on plasma lipids and lipoproteins in man.
Fred H. Mattson,Scott M. Grundy +1 more
TL;DR: Results of this study show that oleic acid is as effective as linoleic acid in lowering LDL-C levels in normo-triglyceridemic patients, and oleoic acid seemingly reduces HDL-C Levels less frequently than does linolesic acid.
