In elderly, institutionalized men on a diet of high linoleic acid content, there was little correlation after 1 yr between adipose tissue linoleic acid concentration and dining room attendance. The correlation improved thereafter, with a correlation coefficient of +0.81 after 5 yr and +0.74 after 6 yr.
