Abstract
Abstract
Background
Previous studies suggest that different foods rich in saturated fatty acids (SFA), particularly meat and dairy, have diverging directions of association with risks of total cardiovascular disease (CVD) and CVD subtypes.(1,2)
Purpose
To investigate the associations between SFA from different dietary sources and risks of total CVD, ischaemic heart disease (IHD), and stroke.
Methods
We analysed data on 114,285 UK Biobank participants who had completed ≥2 24-h dietary assessments and were free of CVD at the date of the latest 24-h dietary assessment. Risks of incident (non-fatal and fatal) total CVD, IHD and stroke by intakes of SFA from different sources were estimated using multivariable Cox regressions. Additional models assessed the role of body mass index (BMI) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) as potential mediators. We also estimated the associations between modelled isoenergetic substitution of 5% energy from SFA from meat with SFA from dairy, polyunsaturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, carbohydrates from whole grains and carbohydrates from fruit and vegetables, and risk of CVD outcomes. A false discovery rate controlling procedure was used to account for multiple testing.
Results
Over a median 8.5 years of follow-up, there were 4,365, 3,394, and 1,041 cases of total CVD, IHD and stroke, respectively. There were no significant associations between total SFA intake and CVD outcomes. SFA from meat was positively associated with total CVD (hazard ratio for each 5% of energy, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.05–1.35) and IHD (1.21; 1.05–1.39) risk independently of lifestyle and cardiovascular risk factors. However, the estimates were attenuated and non-significant for both total CVD (1.11; 0.98–1.26) and IHD (1.12; 0.97–1.29) after adjustment for BMI. SFA from dairy was inversely associated with IHD risk (0.89; 0.82–0.96) in the multivariable model, however this finding was also attenuated after adjustment for BMI and did not pass correction for multiple testing (0.91; 0.84 to 0.98). Modelled replacement of 5% of energy from SFA from meat with carbohydrates from whole grains or carbohydrates from fruit and vegetables were associated with lower risk of stroke in the multivariable model (0.86; 0.78–0.94 & 0.86; 0.78–0.95, respectively) and the model adjusted for BMI and LDL-C (0.87; 0.79–0.96 & 0.86; 0.78–0.95, respectively).
Conclusion(s)
SFA from meat was associated with a higher risk of total CVD and IHD, while SFA from dairy was associated with lower risk of IHD, although BMI seemed to account for a large proportion of these associations. It is possible that diverging associations of SFA from different sources with CVD risk may explain the overall null association with total SFA observed in this study and some previous observational studies. Randomised controlled trials are needed to confirm whether replacing SFA from meat by carbohydrate from wholegrains or fruit and vegetables may be beneficial in reducing stroke risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microseminoprotein-beta (MSP), a protein secreted by the prostate epithelium, may have a protective role in the development of prostate cancer. The only previous prospective study found a 2% reduced prostate cancer risk per unit increase in MSP. This work investigates the association of MSP with prostate cancer risk using observational and Mendelian randomization (MR) methods. PATIENTS AND METHODS A nested case-control study was conducted with the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) with 1871 cases and 1871 matched controls. Conditional logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the association of pre-diagnostic circulating MSP with risk of incident prostate cancer overall and by tumour subtype. EPIC-derived estimates were combined with published data to calculate an MR estimate using two-sample inverse-variance method. RESULTS Plasma MSP concentrations were inversely associated with prostate cancer risk after adjusting for total prostate-specific antigen concentration [odds ratio (OR) highest versus lowest fourth of MSP = 0.65, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.51-0.84, Ptrend = 0.001]. No heterogeneity in this association was observed by tumour stage or histological grade. Plasma MSP concentrations were 66% lower in rs10993994 TT compared with CC homozygotes (per allele difference in MSP: 6.09 ng/ml, 95% CI 5.56-6.61, r2=0.42). MR analyses supported a potentially causal protective association of MSP with prostate cancer risk (OR per 1 ng/ml increase in MSP for MR: 0.96, 95% CI 0.95-0.97 versus EPIC observational: 0.98, 95% CI 0.97-0.99). Limitations include lack of complete tumour subtype information and more complete information on the biological function of MSP. CONCLUSIONS In this large prospective European study and using MR analyses, men with high circulating MSP concentration have a lower risk of prostate cancer. MSP may play a causally protective role in prostate cancer.
