“…A perception of efficacy is reinforced in everyday practice by regression to the mean, which may produce a cholesterol fall of 5% between two visits without any intervention (Hjermann, 1980;Multiple Risk Factor Intervention Trial Research Group, 1982). This is the likely explanation of larger responses to diet in some uncontrolled trials (Jones et al 1982).…”

“…In an overview of 1 6 published control trials of dietary intervention on hypercholesterolaemia, the net fall in serum cholesterol ranged from 0 to 4% with an average of 2% [7]. It is known that regression to the mean can result in a 4-5% reduction in serum cholesterol, and this might be the explanation of larger responses to diet in some uncontrolled trials [8]. Because the baseline serum cholesterol level in this study was based on only one measurement, it is possible that regression to the mean is the explanation for the slight reduction in serum cholesterol observed.…”

Because the effect of the two intervention programmes did not differ, the low-intensity programme is to be preferred from a cost-effectiveness point of view. If only one-third of the population in Stockholm county with cholesterol levels > or = 6.5 mmol L-1 are discovered by the primary health care system, and follow the treatment advice, the net savings in the low-intensity model compared to the current guidelines here presented as the moderate-intensity model, would be SEK 93 million.

To augment the effectiveness of conventional lipid-lowering treatment, a diet has been evolved combining modified fat content with an increase in vegetable-derived fibre and protein. This was evaluated in 37 hyperlipidaemic and normal ambulant subjects in whom plasma lipid and lipoprotein responses were measured for 4.7-11 months. Mean reductions in plasma cholesterol, triglyceride and low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were 22, 24 and 25% respectively; there was no significant change in the cholesterol concentrations in high density lipoprotein or in its HDL2 subclass. The effectiveness of the diet in reducing hyperlipidaemia, its influence in optimizing the distribution of cholesterol between plasma lipoprotein classes, and its nutrient composition suggest that it is an advance on existing lipid-lowering dietary patterns.
