Serum cholesterol response to dietary cholesterol [PDF]

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1984
Serum cholesterol change, delta Chol mg/dl, from change only in dietary cholesterol, mg/1,000 kcal, x, was analyzed with data from 39 controlled experiments on 64 adults with the model delta Chol = b(x2k-x1k). Values of b were found by iteration for exponents k = 0.3 to k = i.0 yielding eight regression equations to check predicted against observed ...
