Predicted Versus Observed Treatment Effects

	Predicted Δ*	Observed Δ*
Lipids, lipoproteins, and apolipoproteins, mg/dL
Total cholesterol	−4.3	−5.1±2.4
LDL‐C	−3.8	−5.3±1.9
HDL‐C	1.5	1.7±0.6
Triglycerides	−13.3	−7.2±6.0
Apolipoprotein B	−3.5	−4.2±1.6
Apolipoprotein A1	2.2	2.5±1.3

HDL‐C indicates high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL‐C, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol.

^*Predicted effects of diets (almond vs control) were determined using the Katan Calculator.⁴³

^*Observed effects of diets (almond vs control) are presented as differences of least squares mean±standard error.
