Vitamin D, Marine n-3 Fatty Acids, and Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease Current Evidence.
Abstract Whether marine omega-3 fatty acid (n-3 FA) or vitamin D supplementation can prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD) in general populations at usual risk for this outcome is unknown. A major goal of VITAL (Vitamin D and Omega-3 Trial) was to fill this knowledge gap. In this article, we review the results of VITAL, discuss relevant mechanistic studies regarding n-3 FAs, vitamin D, and vascular disease, and summarize recent meta-analyses of the randomized trial evidence on these agents. VITAL was a nationwide, randomized, placebo-controlled, 2×2 factorial trial of marine n-3 FAs (1 g/d) and vitamin D3 (2000 IU...

Manipal lifestyle modification score to predict major adverse cardiac events in postcoronary angioplasty patients.
CONCLUSION: There is an overall reduction in adherence to LSM on successive follow-ups and a significant association between the incidence of MACEs and the lack of adherence to LSM. MLSMS is a simple and effective evaluation tool in predicting MACEs in this group of patients. PMID: 30595288 [PubMed - in process]
