Abstract:
The roles of fish oil and ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in preventing coronary heart disease have been extensively explored in laboratory studies,clinical epidemiologic studies,cohort studies,and clinical multicenter randomized controlled trials.However,some recent large-scale double-blinded multicenter randomized controlled trials have yielded more controversial results.Further high-quality studies are required to confirm the clinical values of fish oil and ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids.
