Structural Equation Modeling for Analyzing Erythrocyte Fatty Acids in Framingham

Figure 2

Structural equation model M7 for men (a) and women (b). Solid lines from PUFA FACTOR to fatty acids are gender specific loadings, solid lines from circles to fatty acids are residual variances, dotted line indicates structural dietary intake correlation, and dashed lines indicate structural desaturase enzymes required for biosynthesis.
