<italic>Background:</italic>Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide public health problem in the pediatric population. Patients with CKD die of cardiovascular causes rather than from renal disease. There are several traditional and non-traditional risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in these patients. Endothelial dysfunction is one of the non-traditional risk factors for CVD. Many studies have shown the ability of omega-3 fatty acids to improve the endothelial function and reduce the cardiovascular events in the general population. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of omega-3 fatty acids supplementation on markers of endothelial dysfunction in children with CKD on regular hemodialysis (HD). <italic>Methods and procedures:</italic> This double-blinded randomized placebo-controlled trial included 49 pediatric patients on maintenance HD. Group 1 (n=25) received 1 g omega-3 capsule once daily and group 2 (n=24) received 1 g matched placebo capsule once daily. Both groups were treated for four months. Blood samples were taken from patients of both groups at baseline and after 4 months of supplementation. Serum samples were examined for C-reactive protein (CRP) and nitric oxide (NO) levels as markers of endothelial dysfunction. <italic>Results:</italic> Our results showed that CRP was reduced insignificantly in omega-3 group. NO levels showed no significant differences between groups at the end of the study. <italic>Conclusion:</italic> The administration of 1 g omega-3 capsule once daily for 4 months had no beneficial effects neither on CRP nor NO but should evaluate more.

Homocysteine (HCY), C-reactive protein (hsCRP), and triglycerides (TG) are risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). While multivitamins (MVit) may reduce HCY and hsCRP, omega-3 fatty acids (N3) reduce TG; yet, they are seldom studied simultaneously. We randomly assigned 100 participants with baseline HCY (> 8.0 umol/L) to the daily ingestion of: (1) placebo, (2) MVit (VitC: 200 mg; VitE: 400 IU; VitB6: 25 mg; Folic Acid: 400 ug; VitB12: 400 ug) + placebo, (3) N3 (2 g N3, 760 mg EPA, 440 mg DHA)+placebo, or (4) MVit + N3 for 12 weeks. At follow-up, we observed significant reductions in HCY (umol/L) for the MVit (- 1.43, 95 %CI, - 2.39, - 0.47) and MVit + N3 groups (- 1.01, 95 %CI, - 1.98, - 0.04) groups, both being significant (p < 0.05) vs. placebo (- 0.57, 95 %CI, - 1.49, 0.35) and N3 (1.11, 95 % CI, 0.07, 2.17). hsCRP (nmol/L) was significantly reduced in the MVit (- 6.00, 95 %CI, - 1.04, - 0.15) and MVit + N3 (- 0.98, 95 %CI, - 1.51, - 0.46) groups, but not vs. placebo (- 0.15, 95 %CI, - 0.74, 0.43) or N3 (- 0.53, 95 %CI, - 1.18, 0.12). Lastly, we observed significant reductions in TG for the N3 (- 0.41, 95 %CI, - 0.69, - 0.13) and MVit + N3 (- 0.71, 95 %CI, - 0.93, - 0.46) groups, both significant vs. placebo (- 0.10, 95 %CI, - 0.36, 0.17) and MVit groups (0.15, 95 %CI, - 12, 0.42). The co-ingestion of MVit + N3 provides synergistic affects on HCY, hsCRP, and plasma TG.

Humans under-consume fish, especially species high in long-chain omega-3 fatty acids. Food-based dietary guidelines are one means for nations to encourage the consumption of healthy, nutritious food. Here, associations between dietary omega-3 consumption and food-based dietary guidelines, gross domestic product, the ranked price of fish, and the proportions of marine fish available at a national level were assessed. Minor associations were found between consumption and variables, except for food-based dietary guidelines, where calling out seafood in FBDGs did not associate with greater consumption. This relationship was explored for consumers in the United States, and it was observed that the predominant seafood they ate, shrimp, resulted in little benefit for dietary omega-3 consumption. Seafood is listed under the protein category in the U.S. Dietary Guidelines, and aggregating seafood under this category may limit a more complete understanding of its nutrient benefits beyond protein.
