You should probably read he commentary linked to the paper at the top of the page:
The title of the article is misleading because the stated conclusion cannot be drawn from the research described in the article. In addition, studies show mortality rates due to cardiovascular disease have declined significantly in recent decades (6) which can be attributed to better treatment, but also to lower intakes of SFAs (7, 8). In fact, a Cochrane systematic review based on randomized controlled trials with human subjects suggested that replacement of SFAs for polyunsaturated fatty acids results in a 27% reduction in cardiovascular events (2).
I might be completely misreading due to my undercaffated brain right now, but isn't it stating that the research is in line with preexisting opinion, but the title is not?
