TL;DR: The n-3 fatty acids found in fish are strongly associated with a reduced risk of sudden death among men without evidence of prior cardiovascular disease.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used data for exposure to risk factors by country, age group, and sex from pooled analyses of population-based health surveys and obtained relative risks for the eff ects of risk factors on cause-specifi c mortality from meta-analyses of large prospective studies.

TL;DR: The difference in LDL particle size between CAD patients and controls was not independent but was highly associated with elevated triglyceride levels and decreased high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels.

TL;DR: Factors affecting LDL subfraction distribution as determined by 2% to 16% polyacrylamide-agarose gradient gel electrophoresis of whole plasma in a normal, primarily middle-aged, population of adult male and female participants in the Framingham Offspring Study are examined, consistent with the concept that LDL subFraction distribution is influenced by gender and plasma lipoprotein levels and can be determined readily by the use of whole Plasma.

TL;DR: Erythrocyte n-3 fatty acids of marine origin and trans fatty acid content are suitable biomarkers for long-term intake.
