Factors associated with total n-6 polyunsaturated and n-6/n-3 ratio fatty acids longitudinal changes.

Notes: PUFAs = polyunsaturated fatty acids; BMI = Body Mass Index; SE = Standard Error; total n-6 = 18:2n6 + 18:3n6 + 20:2n6 + 20:3n6 + 20:4n6 + 22:4n6 + 22:5n6.Number of observations and number of groups respectively: 521/193 for total n-6; 511/189 for n-6/n3 ratio.*Data was not presented because the variable did not remain statistically significant in the final model.a β = longitudinal linear regression coefficient.b p-value refers to maximum likelihood estimator.c The first category is the reference and the second is the exposure.Factors associated with total n-6 polyunsaturated and n-6/n-3 ratio fatty acids longitudinal changes.
