Atherosclerosis Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Influence of Dietary Plant Sterols and Plant Stanols on Cholesterol and Plant Sterol Levels in Atheromatous Plaques
This study aims to explore whether the increased supply of dietary plant sterols and plant stanols have any influence on serum levels of phytosterols and on consistency of carotid atheromatous plaques.
This is a double-blind randomized study. The study population will consist of 30 consecutive
patients who will undergo an elective carotid endarterectomy due to a tight asymptomatic
stenosis. The patients will be randomized into two groups consuming either plant sterol
(2g/day) or plant stanol (2g/day) spreads for two to six weeks, until the operation. Serum
lipids, lipoproteins and sterols will be analyzed at the randomization, before the operation
and one month after the operation. The carotid arteries will be examined for their
composition of sterols.
This study gives new information concerning the relationship between dietary consumption of
plant sterols and stanols and the sterol composition of the carotid plaques.
