Abstract; Results
quote
When an increase in plasma cholesterol levels was observed there was a failure to suppress endogenous cholesterol synthesis.

An observed co-occurrence within the dataset: a plasma-cholesterol rise tracked the specific sub-set of periods lacking synthesis suppression. States the association only, not the causal direction.
