The effect of fish oil on hypertension, plasma lipids and hemostasis in hypertensive, obese, dyslipidemic patients with and without diabetes mellitus

We have recently reported that dietary fish oil supplementation (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) led to a reduction in blood pressure (BP) and serum triglycerides (TG), in addition to the normalization of the hypercoagulable state in subjects with obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia withou...

Zusammenfassung:We have recently reported that dietary fish oil supplementation (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) led to a reduction in blood pressure (BP) and serum triglycerides (TG), in addition to the normalization of the hypercoagulable state in subjects with obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia without diabetes mellitus (OHD-DM). The aim of the present study was to explore the mechanism of this amelioration by comparing the previous results to those obtained from 19 subjects who, in addition to the conditions described above, also suffer from diabetes mellitus (OHD+DM) and proteinuria. In both the non-diabetic and diabetic groups, a similar reduction was observed in BP (from 158.7/80.8 to 146/72.9mmHg, and from 157.6/83.2 to 141.9/75.6mmHg, respectively, P
