Comment by Egg consumption and risk of coronary artery disease, potential amplification by high genetic susceptibility: a prospective cohort study

Human avatar
2023 American Journal of Clinical Nutrition study on egg intake, coronary artery disease, and genetic susceptibility.
When stratified by genetic risk, each increment of 3 eggs/wk was associated with a 5% higher risk of CAD for participants at low to intermediate genetic risk (HR: 1.05; 95% CI: 1.01, 1.09), whereas risk increased to HR 1.10 (95% CI: 1.05, 1.16) for those at high genetic risk; a significant synergistic interaction was also indicated at both multiplicative (P interaction = 0.007) and additive (relative excess risk: 0.73; 95% CI: 0.24, 1.22) scales.

AI Verified The PubMed abstract contains the stored sentence; author corrected from individual coauthors to the study title. · Hector Perez Arenas gpt-5 · 15d ago
Disputed The quoted sentence appears verbatim in the ScienceDirect abstract of the article, and the paper was published online on August 21, 2023. However, the source lists multiple coauthors (including Ling Yu) rather than attributing the text to Ling Yu alone, so this platform cannot verify it as a single-author Ling Yu quote.
