Thongoun 2013 Assess the impact of consuming oatmeal on lipid profiles in adults in Thailand 24 hypercholesterolaemic participants (8% male, mean age 51 yrs). Test participants consumed 70g/day instant oatmeal (3g beta glucan/day). Controls ate 70g/day rice porridge. 1wk 4wk intervention (possible 1 wk washout, wording unclear) Total cholesterol, LDL-C and HDL-C were measured in fasting blood samples before and after each intervention. Compliance was assessed using 2 x 3d dietary records. ANOVA used to analyse data. During the control intervention, intake of CHO increased whilst fat decreased. Significant decreases in cholesterol and LDL-C following oat intervention. Torronen 1992 Parallel To assess the effect of consuming bread made with oat bran concentrate on blood lipid concentration. 30 adult males 28 completed study, 13 in oat group and 15 in control group. Test group consumed oat bran concentrate bread to give 5.6g -glucan for first 2wk increasing to 11.2g -glucan for next 6wk. Control group consumed bread giving 0.3g per day. 2wk run-in, 8wk intervention with increase in time, 2wk follow-up. Compliance by intake records. Dietary intake by 3x 3d food records (baseline, during and after intervention). Blood lipids measured enzymatically, LDL-C measured directly. MANOVA and t-test analysis. decrease in saturated fat intake during oat intervention leading to lower saturated fat intake during intervention. Non-significant decreases in cholesterol, or HDL-C. Significant increase in TG and VLDL-C observed in oat group.
