Scientific Opinion on Dietary Reference Values for fats, including saturated fatty acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, trans fatty acids, and cholesterol
TL;DR: This Opinion of the EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition, and Allergies (NDA) deals with the setting of Dietary Reference Values (DRVs) for fats and it was decided not to propose a reference value beside the limitation on the intake of SFA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids during early human development.
TL;DR: The data suggest that preterm infants are especially at risk for the effects of dietary fatty acid imbalances.
Journal Article
The health benefits of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids: a review of the evidence. Commentary
TL;DR: This review will examine published evidence from observational and intervention studies relating to the health effects of n-3 PUFAs, and discuss whether the current UK recommendation for long-chain n- 3 PUFA needs to be revisited.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systemic review of the roles of n-3 fatty acids in health and disease.
TL;DR: Additional controlled clinical trials are needed to document whether long-term consumption or supplementation with eicosapentaenoic acid/docosahexaenoic Acid or the plant-derived counterpart (alpha-linolenic acid) results in better quality of life.

Quantitative growth and development of human brain
John Dobbing,Jean Sands +1 more
TL;DR: The growth spurt period is much more postnatal than has formerly been supposed; the cerebellum has special growth characteristics; and there is a separate period from 10 to 18 weeks' gestation when adult neuronal cell number may largely be achieved.

Intrauterine fatty acid accretion rates in human brain: implications for fatty acid requirements
TL;DR: Developmental changes and estimates of fatty acid incorporation into whole brain and cerebellum are quantitatively relevant to estimation of fatty acids requirements of the low birth weight neonate.

Fatty Acyl-Coenzyme A Elongation in Brain of Normal and Quaking Mice
TL;DR: Microsomal enzyme systems from mouse brain that catalyze the elongation of palmitoyl-coenzyme A, stearoyl -CoA, or arachidyl-CoA appear and reach maximal activity at different times after birth of the animal.
