Serum Phospholipid Docosahexaenoic Acid Is Inversely Associated with Arterial Stiffness in Metabolically
Healthy Men
We hypothesized that lower proportion of serum phospholipid docosahexaenoic acid
(DHA) is inversely associated with increased cardiovascular risk and vascular function in
metabolically healthy men. To elucidate it, we first compared serum phospholipid free
fatty acid (FA) compositions and cardiovascular risk parameters between healthy men (n
= 499) and male patients with coronary artery disease (CAD, n = 111) (30-69 years) without
metabolic syndrome, and then further...
