We studied the correlation of serum fatty acids, a potential coronary risk factor, with serum lipids and blood pressure. The subjects were women aged 40-69 of four Japanese populations (fishing, coastal farming, inland farming and urban populations) and a Caucasian population in which different dietary habits have been reported. Within populations, the total cholesterol level was not correlated with serum fatty acids. HDL-cholesterol was inversely correlated with saturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fatty acids, and positively correlated with polyunsaturated fatty acids although not significantly so in all populations. LDL-cholesterol was not correlated with saturated fatty acids and mono polyunsaturated fatty acids, but was positively correlated with polyunsaturated fatty acids. Triglyceride was positively correlated with saturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fatty acids, and inversely correlated with polyunsaturated fatty acids for all populations. Blood pressure correlated positively with saturated fatty acids, and inversely with polyunsaturated fatty acids although these associations were not statistically significant.
