Table 1.
The differences of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides values between low and high polyphenol intake (PI) groups.
| Biomarkers | Average values and SD (mg/dL) | Effect size (mg/dL) | 95% confidence interval (mg/dL) | p values |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total cholesterol | Low PI: 163.2 ± 37.1 High PI: 140.3 ± 20.6 |
22.9 | 3.0-42.9 | 0.025 |
| LDL | Low PI: 93.3 ± 27.5 High PI: 74.9 ± 17.1 |
18.4 | 3.1-33.5 | 0.020 |
| TG | Low PI: 112.1 ± 109.7 High PI: 55.6 ± 15.3 |
56.5 | 3.2-109.7 | 0.039 |
LDL: low-density lipoprotein; TG: triglycerides; PI: polyphenol intake; SD: standard deviation.
