简要总结
We are performing a pilot cross-over diet study involving 5 patients with heterozygous FH and 5 patients with unexplained ADH. The patients will be randomized to a low versus high saturated fat diet for 4 weeks each. We hypothesize that patients with unexplained ADH may have an exaggerated cholesterol response to saturated fat intake. The specific aim of this study is to quantify the increase in LDL-C in unexplained ADH patients compared to FH patients. The pilot study proposed here will develop preliminary data to be used for future funding proposals of larger, randomized studies.

排除标准
- •Presence of any clinically significant uncontrolled endocrine disease known to influence serum lipids or lipoproteins. Note: patients on thyroid replacement therapy can be included if the dosage of thyroxine has been stable for 6 weeks prior to the first study visit and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level is within the normal range.
- •Conditions of severe acute vascular stress (e.g. acute coronary syndrome, ischemic stroke, or major vascular surgery) within 3 months prior to the first study visit.
- •Patients unable to maintain their current activity level or planning to increase their activity level (e.g. new exercise regimen).

- •Major illness
- •Secondary cause of dyslipidemia (e.g. obstructive liver disease, hypothyroidism, or nephrotic syndrome)
- •Hospitalization within 3 months
- •Substance abuse (illegal drug use, chronic alcoholism or problematic use of alcohol or total daily alcohol intake >2 drinks per day in men and > 1 drink per day in women).
- •Immunodeficiency or HIV-positive status
- •Severe medical condition that may impair the ability of the person to participate in a nutrition intervention study (e.g. digestive disease with fat intolerance, advanced malignancy, or major neurological, psychiatric or endocrine disease)
- •Any other medical condition thought to limit survival to less than 1 year
- •Difficulties or major inconvenience to change dietary habits
- •History of food allergy with hypersensitivity to any of the components of olive oil or nuts
研究组 & 干预措施
Low Saturated Fat Diet
Goal will be to attain <7% of daily calories from saturated fat. Replace it with energy from monounsaturated fat.
干预措施: Dietary intervention (Other)
High Saturated Fat Diet
Goal will be to attain 15% of daily calories from saturated fat. Decrease intake of monounsaturated fat.
干预措施: Dietary intervention (Other)
