摘要：A 12-week dietary intervention was carried out among 40 families from North Karelia, a county in Finland with an exceptionally high rate of coronary heart disease and high serum cholesterol values. The proportion of dietary energy derived from fat was reduced during the 12-week intervention period from about 39% to 23% in all families. The families were randomly allocated into two groups. Twenty families consumed a diet with a polyunsaturated to saturated fat (P/S) ratio of 0.9 (group I), while the other 20 families had a diet with a P/S ratio of 0.4 (group II). Total serum cholesterol decreased by 16% and 9% in men of groups I and II, respectively, and by 16% in women of both groups. These changes were due to a decrease in both low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. LDL cholesterol and phospholipid reached minimum values after 6 weeks on both intervention diets, but LDL protein responded more slowly. Thus, after 6 weeks LDL had an altered composition containing less cholesterol and phospholipids and more protein and triglycerides than during the baseline diet. During the intervention, the linoleic acid content in the serum cholesteryl ester fraction increased, and the magnitude of this change correlated negatively with the changes in total and LDL cholesterol. The decrease in HDL cholesterol during the two intervention diets was due to a fall in the HDL2 cholesterol (29% and 24% in men, and 26% and 25% in women in groups I and II, respectively).( TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
