Popis: Introduction: Studies indicate dietary types of fats are associated with risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Traditional broad classifications may incompletely capture the diversity of fatty acids on CHD. The novel lipid index Dietary Lipophilic Load (DLL) reflects a unique combination of fatty acid fluidity, intermolecular attraction, plus relative fat quantity, while Dietary Lipophilic Index (DLI) is a measure of average fat fluidity, regardless of fat quantity. Thus, we evaluated the association, DLL and DLI, with risk of incident CHD. METHODS: Participants included 30,932 women in the Women’s Health Study (WHS), who were free of major chronic diseases at baseline. DLL was calculated by weighted summation of the multiplicative product of each fatty acid’s intakes (g/day) and its melting points (Celcius); DLI was calculated by dividing DLL by total fat intake (g/day). Hazard ratios (HRs) were adjusted for established risk factors, with updated dietary data, and potential mediators. We also investigated hypothesized interactions with C-Reactive Protein (CRP). RESULTS: There were 1137 cases of incident CHD in 525,828 person-years over 19 years follow-up. At baseline in over 27,000 women with blood samples, DLL and DLI were not correlated with serum cholesterol, triglyceride, HbA1c, ICAM-1, or CRP biomarkers (r CONCLUSION: Results indicate that DLL is associated with increased risk of incident CHD, independent of traditional risk factors, conventional dietary fat classifications, and major CHD biomarkers. Effects of DLL and DLI appear to be modified by levels of CRP. DLL appears to be an important novel dietary fat index that captures additional CHD risk information beyond biomarkers and traditional dietary fat categories. Further studies are warranted.
