Association between Change in Trans Fat Intake and Change in LDL Particle Number Quartile Over 1-Year

Change in LDL-P Quartile^b	Baseline Trans Fat Intake^a (Mean ± SD)	Final Trans Fat Intake (Mean ± SD)	Change in Trans Fat (Mean ± SD)
Reduction from Highest to Other LDL-P Quartile
(yes vs. no, N = 15)	2.52 ± 0.97	1.83 ± 0.94	−0.69 ± 0.82
Remains in Highest Quartile
(yes vs. no, N = 39)	2.78 ± 1.12	2.45 ± 1.05	−0.33 ± 0.63
Students T test (P – Value)	P = 0.40	P = 0.045	P = 0.14

Trans fat in % kcal/day;

LDL-P quartiles: Low LDL-P (< 1000 nmol/L), moderate LDL-P (1000–1299 nmol/L), borderline-high LDL-P (1300–1599 nmol/L), high LDL-P (> 1600 nmol/L).
