This study aimed to identify the association between the risk of hyper-LDL cholesterolemia (hyper-LDLC) and fatty acid consumption patterns (FACPs) using the data from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES) prospective cohort. A total of 6542 middle-aged Korean adults were included in the analysis. Four FACPs were identified through principal component analysis of the reported intakes of 34 fatty acids (FAs): "long-chain FA pattern"; "short & medium-chain saturated fatty acid (SFA) pattern"; "n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) pattern"; and "long-chain SFA pattern". The "long-chain SFA pattern" lowered the risk of hyper-LDLC (relative risk (RR), 0.82; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.72-0.94; p for trend, 0.004) and the "short & medium-chain SFA pattern" increased the risk of hyper-LDLC (RR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.03-1.32; p for trend = 0.004). In sex-stratified analyses, the associations of the "long-chain SFA pattern" (RR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.58-0.93; p for trend = 0.007) and the "short & medium-chain SFA pattern" (RR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.07-1.69; p for trend = 0.003) with the hyper-LDLC risk were observed only in men, but not in women. These results suggest that FACPs with a high intake of long-chain SFA or a low intake of short and medium-chain SFA may protect Korean adults from hyper-LDLC.
本研究旨在利用韩国基因组与流行病学研究(KoGES)前瞻性队列的数据,确定高 LDL 胆固醇血症(hyper-LDLC)风险与脂肪酸消费模式(FACPs)之间的关联。共纳入 6542 名中年韩国成年人进行分析。通过对报告的 34 种脂肪酸(FAs)摄入量进行主成分分析,确定了四种 FACPs:“长链 FA 模式”;“短链和中链饱和脂肪酸(SFA)模式”;“n-3 多不饱和脂肪酸(PUFA)模式”;和“长链 SFA 模式”。“长链 SFA 模式”降低了 hyper-LDLC 的风险(相对风险(RR),0.82;95%置信区间(CI),0.72-0.94;p 趋势=0.004),“短链和中链 SFA 模式”增加了 hyper-LDLC 的风险(RR,1.17;95%CI,1.03-1.32;p 趋势=0.004)。在性别分层分析中,仅在男性中观察到“长链 SFA 模式”(RR,0.73;95%CI,0.58-0.93;p 趋势=0.007)和“短链和中链 SFA 模式”(RR,1.34;95%CI,1.07-1.69;p 趋势=0.003)与 hyper-LDLC 风险之间存在关联,但在女性中不存在。这些结果表明,高摄入长链 SFA 或低摄入短链和中链 SFA 的 FACPs 可能会保护韩国成年人免受 hyper-LDLC 的影响。
