  • selenium atom — decreases incidence of stroke

    Evidence strength: limited.Finding
    “Compared with participants with lower Se levels in tertile 1–2 (< 94.1 ng/mL), significantly lower risks of first total stroke (model 2, OR 0.76; 95% CI 0.63, 0.93) and first ischemic stroke (model 2, OR 0.75; 95% CI 0.61, 0.93) were found in those with higher Se levels in tertile 3 (≥ 94.1 ng/mL) (Table 3).”

    case-control
    Population
    1255 first stroke cases and 1255 matched controls (mean age 70.8 years, hypertensive Chinese community registry, both sexes); exposure is baseline plasma selenium tertile 3 (>= 94.1 ng/mL) versus tertiles 1-2, an endogenous level and not an administered dose; model 2 adjusted for covariates

    Effect 0.76 odds ratio, 95% CI 0.63 to 0.93
