Why the study?
Does higher intake of fish and n-3 and n-6 PUFA reduce carotid wall thickening and maximum CIMT in women?
Does higher intake of fish and n-3 and n-6 PUFA reduce carotid wall thickening and maximum CIMT in women?
Higher dietary intake of fish and polyunsaturated fatty acids is associated with reduced subclinical atherosclerosis (measured by CIMT) in Japanese women.

Supports further study of dietary PUFA in women; leaves open causal effects on carotid atherosclerosis.
In women, higher intake of fish and n-3 and n-6 PUFA may be associated with a lower prevalence of carotid wall thickening and a decrease in maximum CIMT.
