[HTML][HTML] Plasma phospholipid and dietary fatty acids as predictors of type 2 diabetes: interpreting the role of linoleic acid
Background: Dietary fatty acids may be associated with diabetes but are difficult to measure
accurately. Objective: We aimed to investigate the associations of fatty acids in plasma and
diet with diabetes incidence. Design: This was a prospective case-cohort study of 3737
adults aged 36–72 y. Fatty acid intake (/kJ) and plasma phospholipid fatty acids (%) were
measured at baseline, and diabetes incidence was assessed by self-report 4 y later. Logistic
regression excluding (model 1) and including (model 2) body mass index and waist-hip ratio …
