Results: The intervention did not show an increase in telomere length with treatment and there was a trend toward telomere shortening during the intervention period. Linear mixed modeling produced a robust model although statistically underpowered. Telomere shortening was greatest in the LA group (d = 0.21) than in the DHA (d = 0.12) and EPA groups (d = 0.06). Increased erythrocyte DHA levels were associated with reduced telomere shortening (r = −0.67; P = 0.02) in the DHA group. Conclusion: Telomeric shortening may be attenuated by ω-3 PUFA supplementation, requiring further investigation in larger samples.]]> Tue 16 Jan 2024 16:02:14 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26499 Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; DSM-IV) hyperactivity (r = -.270, p =.002) and DSM-IV inattention (r = -.343, p <.001). Conclusion: Increasing erythrocyte DHA and EPA via dietary supplementation may improve behavior, attention, and literacy in children with ADHD.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:35:36 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28437 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:29:04 AEDT ]]>
