摘要

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have suggested that alpha-tocopherol supplementation can help reduce the incidence of coronary disease. Our objectives were to determine the feasibility of providing alpha-tocopherol supplements to male veterans with existing coronary artery disease and determine its effects on alpha-tocopherol levels and the susceptibility of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) to oxidation. METHODS: Fifty-seven percent of 138 coronary disease patients were willing to participate in a placebo-controlled trial -25% were already taking antioxidants. Thirty-nine men were randomly assigned to either 400 mg/day of alpha-tocopherol (n = 27) or placebo (n = 12). alpha-Tocopherol levels and LDL oxidation (measured by formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance) were measured at baseline and at 6 months. RESULTS: Thirty-three subjects (22 alpha-tocopherol, 11 placebo) completed the study; 3 subjects withdrew after suffering coronary disease events. Supplement compliance exceeded 90% and alpha-tocopherol was well tolerated. The alpha-tocopherol group had a significantly greater mean increase in lipid-adjusted alpha-tocopherol levels (73% vs. -4.6%, P < 0.0001), but oxidized LDL did not change significantly. CONCLUSIONS: A secondary prevention trial among veterans would be feasible because the rates of enrollment, completion, compliance, and clinical events were high. alpha-Tocopherol supplements did not decrease the susceptibility of LDL to oxidation, suggesting that higher dosages or longer duration of supplementation may be required for secondary prevention.
