Evidence suggesting an association between n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and stroke risk has been inconsistent, possibly because previous studies have not differentiated between different stroke types. The present study investigated the hypothesis that tissue levels of n-3 PUFA are

BACKGROUND We performed a meta-analysis aiming to clarify the relationship between monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) intake and stroke risk. METHODS Relevant studies were identified by searching relevant databases through January 2016. We included cohort studies that reported relative risks (RRs)

OBJECTIVE To examine the association between intake of total fat, specific types of fat, and cholesterol and risk of stroke in men. Design and setting Health professional follow up study with 14 year follow up. METHODS 43 732 men aged 40-75 years who were free from cardiovascular diseases and

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relations of intakes of soy, fat and other dietary components to premenstrual symptoms. METHODS Cross sectional study. METHODS Three colleges and two nursing schools. METHODS One hundred and eighty-nine Japanese women aged 19 to 34 years. METHODS Intakes of nutrients and

BACKGROUND Portacaval anastomosis has an hypolipemic effect in familial hypercholesterolemia and in healthy animals. In cirrhosis, it raises serum cholesterol, but there is no information on its effect upon plasma fatty acids. However, indirect data suggest that portacaval shunting might contribute

Populations that consume a diet rich in marine lipids have been reported to have a lower risk of coronary heart disease. However, some Western population groups with a high fish consumption continue to suffer elevated rates of coronary heart disease. Many of these individuals consume a diet rich in

BACKGROUND A few ecological and cohort studies in Asian populations suggest an inverse association of the intake of both fat and saturated fat with risk of stroke. However, data among western populations are scant. OBJECTIVE To examine the association of stroke incidence with intake of fat and type

OBJECTIVE The frequency of breakfast intake has been reported to be inversely associated with the risk of cardiovascular events; however, it is uncertain what the impact of the energy and nutrient intakes from breakfast are. We assessed the association between these intakes from breakfast and the

BACKGROUND Whether intakes of dietary fat and cholesterol are associated with risk of stroke remain unclear. We examined the associations between intakes of total fat, specific types of fat, and cholesterol and risk of stroke in a prospective cohort of women. METHODS The study population consisted

OBJECTIVE To investigate the changes in blood lipids and fatty acids profile of mice after different oil loading, and explore the effects of different dietary fatty acids on postprandial blood lipids and fatty acid profile. METHODS Ninety-six C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into 2 groups by

Diet is one of the environmental factors that influences thrombosis and hemostasis. Macronutrients, micronutrients, and other bioactive food components alter the predisposition to thrombosis. The type and amount of dietary fat has been shown to alter thromboxane A2 production and platelet

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease resulting in diarthrodial joints inflammation (particularly joints of hands, wrists, feet, knees, cubitus, ankles, shoulder, etc.) that is manifested by swelling and functional impairment. The associated complications, osteoporosis and

The effects of fatty acids on hemostasis are controversial. It has been difficult to show convincing effects of saturated or monounsaturated fatty acids that are clearly related to hemostatic variables in humans. Unsaturated fatty acids alter platelet aggregation and processes related to coagulation

The use of dietary omega 3 fatty acid capsules has been associated with a decrease in plasma triglyceride levels. In addition, populations consuming diets rich in fish appear to have a decreased incidence of cardiovascular disease. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5 omega 3) and docosahexaenoic acid

Umbelliferone (UMB), a natural antioxidant, is benzopyrone in nature, and it is present in the fruits of golden apple and bitter orange. Earlier we evaluated and reported the effect of Umbelliferone on antidiabetic, antioxidant and antihyperlipidemic properties, and this study was designed to
