n-3 fatty acids, inflammation, and immunity--relevance to postsurgical and critically ill patients.

abstract：:The purpose of the study was to compare the polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) status in patients with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy or adrenomyeloneuropathy (X-ALD/AMN) with that in disorders of peroxisome biogenesis (PB). Total fatty acids and plasmalogens were quantified in plasma and red cells from 28 patients with...
