Abstract in brief
Fish oil supplementation (4g daily containing EPA and DHA) in patients on hemodialysis significantly reduced the incidence of serious cardiovascular events over 3.5 years compared to a placebo.
The study found that the rate of cardiovascular events was about half in the fish oil group (hazard ratio 0.57), indicating a strong potential benefit of fish oil for this high-risk population.
The results suggest that fish oil may also decrease non-cardiac causes of death, with overall trends pointing towards a reduction in both cardiac and non-cardiac related deaths among patients receiving hemodialysis.]
