Relationship among Dietary Intake of Vitamin E, Lipid Peroxidation Markers, and C-Reactive Protein in Flu-Like Patients Diagnosed with COVID-19

Table 6

Coefficients of correlation between the intake of vitamin E, lipids, saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, body mass index, malondialdehyde, and myeloperoxidase of patients with symptoms of flu syndrome assisted by the basic health units with a positive diagnosis for COVID-19 through RT-PCR; Teresina, Piauí, 2021.

	Lipids	Sat_F	Mono_F	Poly#_F	BMI	MDA	MPO#	PCR
Vitamin E	r = 0.337	r = 0.299	r = 0.483	r = 0.269	r = 0.029	r = 0.197	r = 0.083	r = −0.131

Note. Pearson’s correlation () # Sperman’s correlation; Vit E = vitamin E; Sat_F = saturated fats; Mono_F = monounsaturated fats; Poly_F = polyunsaturated fats; BMI = body mass index; MDA = malondialdehyde; MPO = myeloperoxidase.
