Abstract

Dietary effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) omega-3 on lipid peroxidation (LPO) and antioxidant system were studied in 73 patients with ischemic heart disease, hyperlipoproteinemia (HLPE) type IIa, IIb, IV and essential hypertension. Eiconol-enriched antiatherosclerotic diet has more potent hypolipidemic, hypotensive and thrombolytic action in association with inhibition of LPO, enhances SOD activity, keeps red cell catalase within normal. Vitamin E concentrations were not changed. It is suggested that eiconol addition to antiatherosclerotic diet causes no LPO induction and is pathognomonic for HLPE, hypertension and IHD patients.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 73 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
