Background: The association between α-linolenic acid (ALA) and mortality is inconsistent
and has not been summarized systematically. Objective: The purpose was to conduct a meta …

Background: Prior studies of α-linolenic acid (ALA), a plant-derived omega-3 (n-3) fatty acid,
and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk have generated inconsistent results. Objective: We …

Background Current evidence on associations between intakes of linoleic acid (LA), the
predominant n–6 (ω-6) fatty acid, and mortality is inconsistent and has not been summarized …

Previous studies show inconsistent associations between α-linolenic acid (ALA) and risk of
CHD. We aimed to examine an aggregate association between ALA intake and risk of CHD …

Objective To examine the associations between dietary intake and tissue biomarkers of
alpha linolenic acid (ALA) and risk of mortality from all causes, cardiovascular disease …

Background: Few studies have evaluated the association between the n− 3 fatty acid α-
linolenic acid (ALA) and the incidence of congestive heart failure (CHF). Objective: We …

The objective of this meta-analysis was to estimate quantitatively the associations between
intake of α-linolenic acid [ALA, the (n-3) fatty acid in vegetable oils], mortality from heart …

Background: The α-linolenic acid is a plant origin n-3 fatty acid that may reduce the risk of
cardiovascular disease. However, the effect of α-linolenic acid (ALA) on the risk of heart …

Over the last decades, an increasing body of evidence has been accumulated on the
beneficial effect of polyunsaturated fatty acids both in primary and secondary prevention of …

Background Epidemiological evidence suggests a cardioprotective role of α‐linolenic acid
(ALA), a plant‐derived ω‐3 fatty acid. It is unclear whether ALA is beneficial in a background …
