Implication

Randomized clinical trial showed fish oil improves glucose homeostasis and reduces inflammation in burn patients, indicating potential therapeutic benefits.

Key Points

To investigate the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid on inflammation and glucose homeostasis in burn patients.
Prospective, double-blinded, parallel-design randomized clinical trial
24 patients with non-severe burns covering less than 20% of total body surface area
Fish oil group received 1.5 g/d EPA and 600 mg/d DHA for three weeks, compared to controls receiving corn oil
Serum ESR and CRP levels significantly reduced in fish oil group (p < 0.001)
Serum fasting insulin significantly decreased in fish oil group (p < 0.001)
Insulin sensitivity improved in fish oil compared to controls (p = 0.001)
