The sentences
Generally, a decreasing trend in the occurrence of abnormal values of Enterococcus spp. was noted across tertile categories of total polyphenols and all types of lignans except secoisolariciresinol.
These relations were also reflected by a decline in the risk of the disease with each movement to a higher category of tertile intake (OR = 0.28, 95% CI: 0.11–0.61 for secoisolariciresinol, OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.22–0.95 for phytosterols and OR = 0.34, 95% CI: 0.14–0.72 for stigmasterols) and with doubling of intake (OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.24–0.79 for secoisolariciresinol, OR = 0.23, 95% CI: 0.04–1.01 (marginally significant) for phytosterols and OR = 0.29, 95% CI: 0.09–0.72 for stigmasterol, Table 3 ).
