After appropriately excluding these centers, the odds ratio in the third and fourth quartile increased to 1.53 (95% confidence interval: whole grains 1.02, 2.28) and 1.44 (0.94, 2.20) respectively. In addition, there was significant whole grains heterogeneity in the odds ratios between countries, from 0.2 in Spain and Moscow, to 5.0 in Finland and 5.4 in Norway. This heterogeneity may be due whole grains to different amounts, and sources of trans -- and therefore different isomers -- in different countries (for example in Spain, unlike in the other countries, most dietary trans fatty acids are from animal sources), or, more likely, to interaction with other dietary factors, or confounding by unmeasured or poorly measured covariates. Interpretation of the EURAMIC results is controversial, but in any case they do not provide strong evidence against the hypothesis that trans fatty acids increase the risk of CHD, and if anything add weight to the existence of a positive association. The strongest epidemiological evidence relating dietary factors to risk of CHD is provided by prospective investigations.
