Background
Depression is a major public health challenge worldwide, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), especially n-3 PUFAs, have been found to inversely associate with the risk of depression. However, only few ...
Pro-inflammatory fatty acid profile and colorectal cancer risk: A Mendelian randomisation analysis
(Elsevier BV, 2017)
articleartikkeli
Background
While dietary fat has been established as a risk factor for colorectal cancer (CRC), associations between fatty acids (FAs) and CRC have been inconsistent. Using Mendelian randomisation (MR), we sought to ...

articleartikkeli
Background
Fatty liver is a major cause of obesity-related morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to identify early metabolic alterations associated with liver fat accumulation in 50- to 55-year-old men (n ...
Alterations in fatty acid metabolism in response to obesity surgery combined with dietary counseling
(Springer Nature, 2017)
articleartikkeli
Background:
The effects of obesity surgery on serum and adipose tissue fatty acid (FA) profile and FA metabolism may modify the risk of obesity-related diseases.
Methods:
We measured serum (n=122) and adipose tissue ...
Terrestrial carbohydrates support freshwater zooplankton during phytoplankton deficiency
(Springer Nature, 2016)

Freshwater food webs can be partly supported by terrestrial primary production, often deriving from plant litter of surrounding catchment vegetation. Although consisting mainly of poorly bioavailable lignin, with low protein ...
Associations of the serum long-chain n-3 PUFA and hair mercury with resting heart rate, peak heart rate during exercise and heart rate recovery after exercise in middle-aged men
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2018)
articleartikkeli
Long-chain n-3 PUFA from fish have been associated with lower risk of CVD. Fish may also contain methylmercury, which may attenuate the inverse associations of the long-chain n-3 PUFA. However, the mechanisms underlying ...
