A case-control study of 92 Finnish people with no previous myocardial infarction who died from coronary artery disease (CAD) during a 5-year follow-up tested the hypothesis that serum levels resulting from dietary intakes of eicosapentaenoic and arachidonic acids, Se, and vitamin E are inversely associated with fatal CAD incidence, and that serum levels of saturated fatty acids from dietary sources are directly associated with fatal CAD incidence. It was found that the study group had high dietary intakes of saturated fats and low intakes of Se and polyunsaturated fatty acids. While a positive association was found between a high saturated/polyunsaturated fatty acid ratio and fatal CAD, CAD risk was not associated with serum Se, retinol, or vitamin E levels.(wz)
