Causal role of EPA on ischemic heart disease, triglyceride rich lipoproteins and related traits: A two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis

2026-04-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>INTRODUCTION</h4> Most randomized controlled trials (RCTs) found that omega-3 fatty acids have little to no effect on cardiovascular disease risk. However, a few suggested that a specific omega-3 fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), reduces cardiovascular disease risk in patients with high triglycerides (TG). It is unclear whether EPA is beneficial in the general population or how it af...
