Background and Purpose—We hypothesized that total marine n-3 polyunsaturated fatty
acids (PUFA), in particular eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) …

Background and Purpose—The associations of individual long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated
fatty acids with incident ischemic stroke and its main subtypes are not well established. We …

Ischemic stroke is a major cause of death and morbidity worldwide. It has been suggested
that polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) may be associated with a lower risk ischemic …

Background There is some evidence that the association of fish and marine fatty acids with
stroke risk differs between men and women. We investigated the gender-specific …

Background The plant-derived omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) may reduce the
risk of cardiovascular disease. Objective We have investigated associations between the …

Background: The association of individual fatty acids with ischemic stroke has not been
thoroughly studied, and results have been inconsistent. Few prospective studies have …

OBJECTIVE: ω-3 fatty acids, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), prevent ischemic
stroke. However, the clinical importance of EPA for ischemic stroke and its subtype has not …

A low dietary intake of unsaturated fatty acids has been found in male patients with stroke as
compared with controls in Italy, and a high consumption of meat has been associated with …

Stroke is a major leading cause of death and disability worldwide. N-3 polyunsaturated fatty
acids (PUFAs) including eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid have potent anti …

Prospective studies of long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in relation to
stroke have yielded inconsistent results. The authors conducted a meta-analysis of …
