Bipolar Disorder is a chronic disabling psychiatric disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of mania or hypomania and depression. Bipolar Disorder can be separated into bipolar I and bipolar II disorders with bipolar I disorder characterizing individuals who have episodes of mania and
BACKGROUND
There are four long chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA 18:3n-3) is found in plants. However the remaining three omega-3 PUFAs, which are longer and more unsaturated (Eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA 20:5n-3, Docosapentaenoic acid, DPA 22:5n-3, and
Benefits and importance of CoQ10 for the human health:
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an endogenously produced lipid-soluble molecule of the human organism that is considered an essential component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain where it is the electron acceptor for complexes I and II. In
The "strong pulse disease" was treated by acupuncture, phlebotomy and leeches from 2600 to c. Modern history began when in 1628 William Harvey described the circulatory system and in 1733 stephen hales made the first blood pressure measurement. In 1896 was recognized as a clinical entity, thanks to
Long Chain-Polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) are needed to support normal physiological functions: Unlike saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, synthesis of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5 omega-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6 omega-3) from its omega-3 PUFA precursor,
A single site, double-blind, randomized, cross-over study designed to compare the effects of flax oil and fish oil supplementation on the oxylipin profile in females with obesity (n=24). Eligible participants will complete two supplementation phases (flax oil and fish oil rich in DHA) and will be
Lean and overweight subjects (Body mass index: BMI >20kg/m2 <32kg/m2 ) with CC and TT genotypes of FADS1 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) from the METabolic Syndrome in Men (METSIM) study, in which currently >10000 men are included from the population living in Kuopio, will be recruited. Seventy
The study consists of a diet-intervention in a single group under-free-living conditions. The diet was enriched with 15g of almonds and 15g of walnuts per day for eight weeks, supplied directly to the patient by the researcher. This amounts of walnuts and almonds contain polyunsaturated fatty acids
CIPN is a common side effect of many chemotherapeutic agents and often results in dose limitation, switch to less efficacious agents or even therapy discontinuation. CIPN mainly affects sensory nerves, while motor or autonomic nerve injury is rare. Therefore, most patients with CIPN experience
There is growing evidence that diets high in long chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) decrease the risk of fatal ischemic heart disease.Both epidemiologic studies and clinical trials demonstrate substantial cardioprotective effects of alpha linolenic acid (ALA) from vegetable oils.However,
An 8-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted with 86 nondiabetic and borderline-to-moderate hypercholesterolemic (200mg/dL ≤ serum cholesterol ≤ 300mg/dL) subjects, not taking any medications and supplements to affect lipid metabolism, platelet function and
Adolescence, an important window of opportunity and vulnerability for brain development Although less well studied, adolescence is also a critical period of brain development. The brain undergoes important organizational changes, with the re-emergence of gonadotropin-releasing hormone triggering a
This is a pilot clinical trial of omega-3-polyunsaturated fatty acids carried out in SLE patients followed at the Rheumatology Unit of Hospital das Clínicas, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, UFMG.
Female patients who met the revised American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria
Diets containing nuts likely reduce cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk but the mechanisms remain poorly defined. Walnuts contain substantial amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), particularly alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), and are a rich source of bioactives. Many vegetable oils are high in
Background Information and Scientific Rationale
Consumption of long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs), including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5n-3), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA; 22:5n-3), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6n-3) from fish and fish-oil supplements reduces disease risk
