Background: In burn patients, the profound effect of nutritional support on improved wound healing and a reduced rate of hospitalization and mortality has been documented. Fish oil as a primary source of omega-3 fatty acids in nutritional support may attenuate the inflammatory response and enhance immune function; however, unclear effects on the improvement of clinical outcomes in burn patients remain. Methods: The systematic literature review was conducted by searching the electronic databases: Cochrane Library, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus to assess the randomized controlled trials of nutritional support with omega-3 fatty acids compared to control diets in patients that presented with burns from any causes. Results: Seven trials were included in this meta-analysis. We found no significant differences in length of stay (LOS) (p = 0.59), mortality (p = 0.86), ventilation days (p = 0.16), gastrointestinal complications—e.g., constipation and diarrhea (p = 0.73)—or infectious complications—e.g., pneumonia and sepsis (p = 0.22)—between the omega-3-fatty-acid-receiving group and the control/other diets group. Conclusions: We did not find a benefit of omega-3 support in reducing the various complications, mortality and LOS in burn patients. Further studies are necessary to find the effect of nutritional support with omega-3 fatty acids over low-fat diets in this population.  相似文献

Omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA) may have beneficial clinical and immune-modulating effects in surgical patients. In a randomized, double-blind, prospective, placebo-controlled trial, 148 patients referred for elective colorectal cancer surgery received an n-3 FA-enriched oral nutritional supplement (ONS) providing 2.0 g of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and 1.0 g of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) per day or a standard ONS for seven days before surgery. On the day of operation, there was a significant increase in the production of leukotriene B5 (LTB5) (p < 0.01) and 5-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (5-HEPE) (p < 0.01), a significant decrease in the production of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) (p < 0.01) and a trend for a decrease in the production of 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) (p < 0.1) from stimulated neutrophils in the active group compared with controls. There was no association between LTB4 values and postoperative complications. In conclusion, oral n-3 FA exerts anti-inflammatory effects in surgical patients, without reducing the risk of postoperative complications.  相似文献

Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), rumenic acid (RmA), and punicic acid (PunA) are claimed to influence several physiological functions including insulin sensitivity, lipid metabolism and inflammatory processes. In this double-blind randomized controlled trial, we investigated the combined effect of ALA, DHA, RmA and PunA on subjects at risk of developing metabolic syndrome. Twenty-four women and men were randomly assigned to two groups. Each day, they consumed two eggs enriched with oleic acid (control group) or enriched with ALA, DHA, RmA, and PunA (test group) for 3 months. The waist circumference decreased significantly (−3.17 cm; p < 0.001) in the test group. There were no major changes in plasma insulin and blood glucose in the two groups. The dietary treatments had no significant effect on endothelial function as measured by peripheral arterial tonometry, although erythrocyte nitrosylated hemoglobin concentrations tended to decrease. The high consumption of eggs induced significant elevations in plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL)- and high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol (p < 0.001), which did not result in any change in the LDL/HDL ratio in both groups. These results indicate that consumption of eggs enriched with ALA, DHA, RmA and PunA resulted in favorable changes in abdominal obesity without affecting other factors of the metabolic syndrome.  相似文献

Background: There is growing interest in the use of ω‐3 fatty acid (n‐3FA) lipid emulsions to prevent complications associated with parenteral nutrition. The authors systematically reviewed the evidence on the benefits and safety of n‐3FA compared with standard lipid emulsions in children with intestinal disease, critical illness, trauma, or postoperative complications. Materials and Methods: The authors searched 4 bibliographic databases from their inception to March 2011, conference proceedings, trial registries, and reference lists. Two reviewers independently selected studies, assessed methodological quality, and rated the strength of the evidence. One reviewer extracted and a second reviewer verified data. The authors summarized findings qualitatively and conducted meta‐analysis when appropriate. Results: Five randomized controlled trials with unclear risk of bias and 3 high‐quality prospective cohort studies were included. The studies examined premature, low birth weight infants (n = 6) and children with heart disease (n = 1) or intestinal failure (n = 1). The strength of evidence was consistently low or very low across all lipid emulsion comparisons and outcomes. In young children, n‐3FA emulsions resulted in improvement in some biochemical outcomes of intestinal failure–associated liver disease but no difference in mortality. Few studies examined patient‐important outcomes, such as length of hospital and intensive care stay; need for transplantation, growth, and cognitive development; or the long‐term effects and potential harms associated with these therapies. Conclusions: Currently, there is a lack of sufficient high‐quality data to support the use of parenteral n‐3FA lipid emulsions in children. Future trials examining long‐term clinical outcomes and harms are needed.  相似文献

Background: The purpose of the study was to examine whether a preoperative supplement with ω‐3 fatty acids (FAs) leads to their incorporation into colonic tissue in patients scheduled for colorectal cancer surgery. This would be of interest because ω‐3 FAs have potential beneficial (local) immunological effects that might benefit these patients. Methods: In a randomized, double‐blind, prospective, placebo‐controlled, single‐center intervention trial, patients referred for elective colorectal cancer surgery received either an ω‐3 FA–enriched oral nutrition supplement (ONS) (200 mL twice daily) providing 2.0 g of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and 1.0 g of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) per day or a standard ONS for 7 days before surgery. Tissue samples from healthy colonic tissue (mucosa and muscular layer) were obtained during surgery, and tissue fatty acid composition was analyzed by gas chromatography. Results: EPA was significantly higher in colonic mucosa (P = .001) and in the colonic muscular layer (P = .004) in the ω‐3 FA group compared with controls. Patients in the ω‐3 FA group also tended to have higher docosapentaenoic acid and DHA levels in colonic tissue. Conclusions: EPA is incorporated rapidly into colonic mucosa and colonic muscular layer in patients given 3 g of ω‐3 FA daily for 7 days before surgery for colorectal cancer. This may lead to potential beneficially effects on (local) immune function, which might benefit these patients.  相似文献

The present review aims at highlighting the use of a recently developed medium‐chain triacylglycerol:fish oil (MCT:FO) emulsion for the rapid and sustained enrichment of long‐chain polyunsaturated ω‐3 fatty acids in cell phospholipids. Preclinical in vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo experiments are briefly considered with emphasis on the changes in the fatty acid pattern of cell phospholipids in several organs, the partial correction of liver steatosis, and the cardiovascular modification of cationic and functional variables observed in ω‐3‐depleted rats examined 60–120 minutes after a bolus intravenous (IV) injection (1.0 mL) of the MCT:FO emulsion. The clinical findings collected in healthy male volunteers before or after the bolus IV injection (50.0 mL) of either the MCT:FO emulsion or a control medium‐chain triacylglycerol:long‐chain triacylglycerol emulsion are also reviewed, with emphasis on the rapid (within 60 minutes) and sustained (up to 2–3 days) enrichment of platelet and white blood cell phospholipids in long‐chain polyunsaturated ω‐3 fatty acids and hemostatic safety of the present procedure proposed as a tool for the rapid prevention or correction of metabolic and functional disturbances in humans with a relative deficiency in such ω‐3 fatty acids.  相似文献
